Channel?

As you know from previous articles, the Control Panel is one of the most important tools in IPDirector. In the Control Panel, an EVS operator can create, preview, load, update, and playout clips and playlists. However without assigning a Player Channel to the Control Panel, it’s impossible to do it, because Control Panel functionality is deactivated. 


Assigning a player channel to the Control Panel in EVS IPDirector is a fundamental

operation that activates the Control Panel’s functionality. Below I show you how to assign a

Player Channel to a Control Panel.

1. Open the Channel Explorer by clicking the Channel Explorer button located on the

toolbar

2. Open the Control Panel by clicking the Control Panel button located on the toolbar
