The clip player is a function for recalling and playing
video content.
To use the clip player function, the MZS-X1800 Clip
Player License is required for each target box.

Areas Used by Clip Player

Two areas are used by clip players.
Clip player work area: An area for working with content.
When the system is powered off, the content in the

When used for clip player operations, the target
content is loaded into the clip player work area.

Notes
• Clip players operate on a box-by-box basis. When the
system signal format is 2160P, only two channels
comprising Clip 1 and Clip 2 can be used. The same
channels are linked and operate together, even though
the boxes are different.
• When content is loaded, it is loaded into the clip player
of all boxes in the switchers.
Group mode (combine channels)
When group mode is enabled on consecutive odd-
numbered and even-numbered clip player output
channels, the two channels are combined.
Clip player operations control the combined clip player
output channels.
When combined content is selected, content 1 and content
2 of the combined content are recalled on the two
combined clip player output channels, respectively.
