Working With Playlists

Adding Video Segments to a Playlist

WinMAX allows you to add movie bookmarks (created via the Movies tab) to a Playlist. Typically,
within the context of Playlists, movie bookmarks are used to define a segment of a DVD to be
included for playback.
To Use Bookmarks To Add a Video Segment To a Playlist
1. Create a bookmark at the point that you want to start the segment (as represented by B1 in
FIG. 35 below).
2. Create a second bookmark at the point that you want to end the segment (represented by B2).
3. Click and drag only the first bookmark (B1) onto a Playlist in the Play Lists window (don't add
the second bookmark). The time between the first and second bookmarks is the segment of
video that will be played back when the Playlist reaches the bookmark during playback.
4. To add another video segment, repeat the process - create a new bookmark at the desired
starting point for the segment, and create a second bookmark at the desired end point.

If only one bookmark exists in the movie, and you add that bookmark to a playlist, the
movie will play from the bookmark to the end of the movie.
If you create a set of bookmarks as described above to define a video segment, then add
the segment to a Playlist, and then you delete the second (end-of-segment) bookmark in
the set (B2 in the illustration above), the segment will stay intact within the Playlist.
However, if you delete the first (start-of-segment) bookmark, the segment will be
removed from the Playlist.
