| Using the Studio
When the Avid editing application starts and connects to the Avid Unity environment, the playback devices are made available to the Avid editing system. |
These devices are displayed in the Transfer > Send To Playback menu. If your Studio was not available when you started the Avid editing application, select Select Transfer > Reconnect To Server.
For more information, see the following topics found in the "Airspeed Multi Stream Installation and User's Guide":
• “Connect to Playout Server or Studio” on page 270
• “Send to Playout Server or Studio” on page 271
Connect to Playout Server or Studio
• “Send to Playout Server or Studio” on page 271
The Studio is defined in the TMClient.ini tab on the Avid editing system. The Avid editor determines if the playback device is a Studio by the naming convention; see “Adding the Studio to Your WorkGroup” on page 268 in the Airspeed USer Guide. This determination happens when the Avid editor is started. If you are already running the Avid editing application and want to make sure the playback servers are available, select “Reconnect To Server” in the Avid editor.
To connect or reconnect to transfer server:
- Select Transfer > Reconnect to Server.
- Select Transfer > Reconnect to Server.

Studio in the playback list.
To send a sequence to a Studio, do one of the following:
- Right-click on the selected sequence and select Send to Playback > studioname.
- Highlight the sequence in your bin, and select Transfer > Send to Playback > studioname.
The Send To Playback list is not automatically refreshed with network changes. If the Studio has become unavailable, the Studio name remains in the Avid editor’s Send To Playback list. To check if the Studio is still available, select Transfer > Reconnect To Server. If the Studio name is removed from the Send To Playback list, all of the Studio members are no longer unavailable. If you send a sequence to a Studio that is unavailable, the result is a failed transfer.
*As long as one member of the Studio is available, the Studio name appears on the Send To
Playback list and the transfer is successful. A Studio is only unavailable when all of its
members are unavailable.
