How do I set the default sequence?

[teamrichard1 1]

Hi everyone, I'm able to create new sequences with audio bumpers, multiple trailers, etc., everything that I want in them. But I can't figure out how to get any of them to automatically play when I start a movie. I've tried deleting everything, and using the | Default 2D | as a base, but when I make edits to that it forces me to save it as something else. It puts up something like script.cinemavision.default2d as the file name, but when I go to play a movie, it only plays the included  | Default 2d | sequence. How can I set one of my custom sequences as the default that plays before a movie?

 

Thanks!

Hey there! It's a little different now that we have Conditional Sequences.

To set the default Sequence only for any content, unless there's a conditional match that fits better:

1. Open the Sequence Editor.
2. Press C on your keyboard.
3. Select Sequence Settings.
4. Set Active to Yes.

To set the default Sequence only for 2D content, unless there's a conditional match that fits better:

1. Open the Sequence Editor.
2. Press C on your keyboard.
3. Select Sequence Settings.
4. Set Active to Yes.
5. Set Type to 2D.

To set the default Sequence only for 3D content, unless there's a conditional match that fits better:

1. Open the Sequence Editor.
2. Press C on your keyboard.
3. Select Sequence Settings.
4. Set Active to Yes.
5. Set Type to 3D.

When I say conditional match that fits better, I mean if you've created other Sequences and set conditions like Genre, Actor, Studio, etc. In that case, if you were to have a conditional sequence that looked like this:

• Active: Yes
• Type: 2D
• Studio(s): Marvel

And you also had the 2D default above, when you watch Alien in 2D it will use the default sequence. When you watch Iron Man in 2D it will bypass the default sequence and use the Marvel sequence because it matches both Type and Studio.

Thank you so much! That did the trick.
