Transferring Avid Assets to a Playback Device
1241
To send a finished sequence to a playback device:
1. (Option) If you want to use a Transfer setting template, select the custom Transfer setting in
the Settings tab in the Project window. For more information on creating a custom map for
sending sequences to Interplay Transfer, see “Mapping Audio Tracks to Output Channels”
on page 1236.
2. Open the bin that contains the clips or sequences you want to send.
3. Select a clip or sequence in a bin. Ctrl+click to select multiple clips or sequences.
4. Do one of the following:
t Select Transfer > Send To Playback, and select the available playback device to which
you want to send the sequence.
t Right-click the clip or sequence in the bin, and select Send To Playback, and select the
available playback device to which you want to send the sequence.
The Send to Playback dialog box opens.
n
If necessary, you can set the sequence to high priority by clicking the circle in the PWT (Play
While Transferring) column next to the sequence.
c
If you try to send a sequence or clip with the same tape ID as one the Interplay Transfer
already has, you receive an error message. If you want to overwrite the tape ID name, select
the Overwrite option. Overwrite the tape ID only if you are sure you want to overwrite the
previous tape ID name.
5. Click OK.
The sequence is sent to the Interplay Transfer server, which then sends it to the selected
playback device. You can now work on another project while the transfer is taking place.
For information on monitoring the transfer of assets, see “Monitoring Transfers from Within
the Avid Editing Application” on page 1242.
