2.3.5 BLACK CLIPS MANAGEMENT
A black clip is a clip represented by a black sequence in the video track and a
mute sample in the audio track.
It can be automatically inserted in a playlist under specific circumstances when
working with Fill and Key playlists.
Moreover, a black clip can also be manually inserted as described in section ‘How
t
o Manually Insert a Black Clip in a Playlist’ on page 161.
When
inserted into a playlist, a black clip is played out like a normal element.
Therefore, it is taken into account for on-air time calculation and remaining time
calculation. Black clip related information will be displayed on OSD while played
out. Almost all operations allowed on playlist elements will be possible on a black
clip. Refer to section ‘Limitations’ below for restriction on authorized operations.
In addition, when a playlist containing black clips is copied to another EVS video
server, black clips are kept.
LIMITATIONS

2. It is not possible to load a black clip as a clip on a Control Panel.
3. The following operations cannot be performed on a black clip: copy, move,
update, delete, backup, restore
4. A black clip cannot be renamed.
5. The only type of tag allowed on a black clip is GPI. That is understandable as
