Changing the current bin

On the K2 system, a fixed amount of disk space is reserved for storing media files— the V:\ partition. Within the V:\ disk partition, your clips and playlists are stored in bins, which function like directories in a file system. You can organize your media by creating and removing bins in AppCenter. You can have channels from multiple sources in one channel suite; the clips displayed are those on the source that has the currently selected channel.

When recording starts, the new clip is stored in the current bin, which is also referred to as a working bin. Each channel has its own working bin. You can change the current bin to determine where you want the clip stored. The current bin name is displayed under the clip name in the display.


Note: If you rename the working bin, the bin automatically becomes the default bin.
  • Change the current bin by doing the following:
    1. Make sure the record channel is selected.
    2. Click the drop-down list showing the clip’s location, choose a bin.
  • You can also change the current bin by doing the following:
    1. From the main menu, select Control | Options.
    2. Click the Bin & AFD tab, then choose a bin from the list.


    You can also change the working bin by loading a clip into a channel (for example, by using drag-and-drop) from a bin that is not the current working bin for that channel. The bin from which you loaded the clip then becomes that channel’s working bin.
