Overlaid elements are elements which are intended to be played during other, longer elements - e.g. a long music bed with overlaid jingle drop-ins. If it should be possible to start these overlaid elements manually, it is necessary that the cursor of TurboPlayer positions itself on these elements (=yes=default value). If you set the parameter to "no" the cursor will be positioned on the first normal (=non-overlaid) element behind the chain of overlaid elements. This allows the user to start the next normal element without the need to skip the overlaid elements first.
Details: This parameter applies mostly to the "Sequenced" rundown mode, because in all other modes the cursor can be set by the user as he likes. The parameter applies only to overlaid elements with start modes "Manual" or "Sequenced", but not for "Relative" starts. If you do not want to start overlaid elements manually, there is no need to position the cursor on overlaid elements. |
