A playlists includes all the files of a rundown so it can be useful to save them so you can reuse them later.

Saving A Playlist:

To save a playlist:

  • drop it from the calendar view or the workbench into the "Playlists" tab in the library or 
  • select the playlist and choose "Save Playlist As…" from the "File" menu or 
  • click on the ­"Save Playlist As …" button in the inspector.

Saved playlists are located at the path specified in the just:connect repository settings (the default path is: ~/Documents/Playlists). It is possible to transfer saved playlists to other machines and reuse them there. Doing so you have to make sure that just:out has access to all the files which are used in those particular playlists. 

Menu "File » Save Playlist As…"

Use the save dialog to define a name for the playlist or use the default name which consists of the name of the playlist and the date it has been scheduled. The preselected folder shown here depends on the playlist repository path which has been defined by your system administrator in the just:out preferences.

Reusing A Playlist

It is possible to add a previously saved playlist to the rundown by using:

  • drag and drop from the library to the calendar view: This will add the content at the end of the playlist.
  • drag and drop directly into the workbench or the timeline: This allows you to precisely define where the content of the playlist is being dropped.
  • drag and drop directly into the workbench or the timeline while holding down the cmd-key: This splits the playlist at the desired dropping position and generates a new playlist in between the two parts.

Invalid merge warning:

It is not possible to drop a playlist between the elements in the video track, if there is a graphics element playing at that position. You will get the warning shown left instead.
