Viewing the Clips pane

The Clips pane is always displayed in AppCenter. The size of the Clips pane changes when you resize the monitor pane or the channel pane. At its minimum size the Clips pane displays a single column of clip thumbnails.

Control Description and User Operation

Current Bin Label

Displays the name and location of the current bin, or the summary of the search or link operation. At first time start-up, the current bin is V:/default. The bin named ‘default’ is on the internal disk volume. Click the current bin label to change the current bin and organize bins.

Context Button

The operation and label of the context button changes with the application of the selected channel.

  • Load – Displayed when the selected channel is in Player application or Recorder mode. Loads the asset selected in the asset list.
  • New Event– Displayed when the selected channel is in Playlist application Event View. Creates an unattached event in the playlist that can be previewed and then inserted.
  • Insert – Displayed when the selected channel is in Playlist application List View. Inserts selected assets into the playlist.
Note: Double-clicking the asset in the asset list performs the same function as clicking the context button.

Assignable Buttons

Assignable buttons allow you to modify the button assignments to best suit your workflow. Hold down a button to open the button pop-up menu that lists the alternative button choices.

  • Properties– Opens the Properties dialog for the selected asset.
  • Search– Opens the search dialog box.
  • New Bin– Creates a new bin. To create a new bin in the current disk volume, click New Bin, then enter the new bin name using onscreen or external keyboard. The list displays the bins in alphabetical order.
  • Options– Opens the options dialog box which allows you to modify how assets are displayed in the asset list.
  • Delete– Deletes the selected item(s).
  • Rename– Opens the Rename dialog box.
  • Send to– Opens the Send to dialog box used to send the asset to a file, or streaming transfer to another networked device.

Asset List: Select from three view options— Text, Image, or Details

Displays the list of assets located in the current bin. You can scroll through the list using the up/down arrow keys on an external keyboard. Right-click to open the Asset Context menu.

You can change how assets are shown by selecting the view option. View options include Image (thumbnail), Text, or Details (includes thumbnail and detailed text).

Assets recorded using a different video standard or compression type than the current system setting cannot be loaded and played on the K2 Summit Production Client. For example, if you record a PAL clip, you cannot play it on a channel that is configured for NTSC. These assets appear “grayed” in the Clips pane asset list.
