Edit data in a udf or udk

[lxkev]

after looking at the manual i thought if i pressed active and a udk/udf it would load the data into the prog window. so i can edit the date then update it. However this does not work (software 2.03)> how do you edit data in a udf/udk.

 

Also how come page holdover if active works on the playbacks but not on udf?

The commands ACTIVE <UDF> and ACTIVE <UDK> should indeed pull the channels owned by the specified UDF/UDK into the Program Window.

The last time I tried these commands they did appear to work OK. Can you try the commands with the latest software (2.0.9) and see what happens.

 

On a similar topic the commands LOAD <UDF> and LOAD <UDK> should be implemented in Version 3, allowing you to load a UDF/UDK into the Program Window, edit as required and then save back to the original destination using UPDATE.

Probably because at present it is only defined for the playbacks

 

However, this is something else that is planned for version 3.
