Use this dialog box to create a new playlist or edit existing playlist settings.
Use this tab to define a changeable virtual ID for a playlist, which enables you to match the playlist RSS feed URL to the URL used by an external application or system to access playlist content. For example, Datalinqs in a Ross Video XPression real-time motion graphics system use playlist RSS feed URLs to access playlist content. By changing playlist virtual IDs, you can switch the playlist accessed by an XPression Datalinq without editing the RSS feed URL used by the Datalinq.
Direct RSS Feed — this box displays the Direct RSS Feed URL for the playlist, which external applications or systems can use to access playlist content. This URL is based on a fixed ID, which you cannot change.

Use Virtual ID — select this check box to use a virtual ID to output playlist content through a Virtual RSS Feed URL along with the Direct RSS Feed URL.
Existing IDs — use this list to select an existing virtual ID with which to create the Virtual RSS Feed URL for the new playlist. This list is only available when the User Virtual ID check box is selected.
Inception automatically enters the selected virtual ID in the Virtual ID box.

The existing playlist no longer outputs content through a Virtual RSS Feed URL, but it continues to output content through its Direct RSS Feed URL.
