Playlist Preparations
Chapter 4 Routine Operations
* The area painted with the NSP-1 transparent color will be
transparent. Refer to the supplied SpecsE.htm file for details.
When a material tab is selected in the Content
Management window, the background of the layer
name changes to yellow showing that the data on the
tab can be dropped on that layer.
The position and size data based on the selected
template are added to the dropped material and it
appears on the playlist as an event. The color of the cell
where the event is specified changes to light blue.
6
Repeat step 5, or from steps 3 to 5 to create the playlist.
If necessary, edit the newly added event, for example,
modify the duration of the event.
See “Playlist Editing Functions” on page 39 for
detailed information on playlist editing functions.
When you change a template whose layer settings are
different, in the middle of the playlist, the layers that
are not used in the new template will disappear.
The events specified on these layers are still stored,
and will re-appear if you select a template in which
those layers are used.
However, when the playlist is saved, the BZNP-D1
software only saves the events on the layers that are
used in the template at the time of saving.
It is recommended that you make the layer settings of
the templates identical when they may be used in a
single playlist. If this is not possible, select a template
in which all the necessary layers are to be used every
time, before saving the playlist.

Select [Playlist] > [Save] on the menu bar of the main

The playlist is saved. It appears on the Playlist tab of
the Content Management window.

Specify the type and title of the saved playlist.
Select the playlist in the Content Management
window, then click its Type or Title column. This
makes the column editable.

characters), and then press the Enter key.

To finish working with this playlist, select [Playlist] >

To preview the playlist being edited
Right-click any point in the Playlist window, then select
[Send the Playlist to NSP-1 and Preview] on the popup
menu. This sends the playlist that is currently being edited
to all the NSP-1 players of the selected group and starts
previewing. Check the contents on the connected display.
To stop the preview, right-click any point in the Playlist
window again, then select [Stop Previewing].
This operation sends the playlist to all NSP-1 players of the
group for preview. When there is an ongoing playout on
the NSP-1 players, the ongoing playout is terminated.
