PRESET BIN
Another very useful feature shared by TriCaster's Media Players is the Preset Bin, which provides quick and
convenient access to multiple playlists. Presets also store the state of various Media Player controls.
Figure 42
To display the preset bin, roll the mouse pointer to the edge of the screen in a tabbed Media Player (or the
Audio Mixer tab). When you change playlists it's almost as though you are accessing another media player. To
populate a new preset, simply click a blank preset icon. Presets are named, and conveniently display a thumbnail
image. To modify the name, right-click the preset icon to open a menu, and select Rename. Other menu
options include Delete, Export and Import (the file will be saved with the extension '.pst').
FILE OPERATIONS

Click Add to open a custom Media Browser.

Drag (appropriate type) file(s) from one module's playlist to another module.

Right-click in the playlist pane to show a context menu with relevant items from the following list:

Cut

Copy

Paste

Remove

*Rename
Standard (system) Cut, Copy, Paste and Delete keystrokes are supported. Un-playable (missing, corrupt, or
unsupported) file icons are 'ghosted'.
Hint: A 'speaker' overlay on the icon's bottom right corner indicates a clip has audio. You can click this control to
set the level on a per clip basis, too.
*Rename creates a local alias, or 'playlist nickname'. It does not actually change the name of the file on
your hard drive. (Roll the mouse over the Alias in the icon header to see the filename.)
SCRUB BAR
Just beneath the playlist pane is a full-width Scrub Bar. Its width represents the full run time of the selected
item. Drag the knob left or right to change position in the file.
