Child/Parent Information
| Hierarchy | Allowed element |
|---|---|
| Parent elements | ASX, ENTRY |
| Child elements | None |
Remarks
This element allows users to place additional information about each clip inside the ENTRY element that contains it. The GetMediaParameter method retrieves the value of the VALUE attribute, given the name of the parameter and an index number for the entry.
A parameter can also be associated with the show rather than an individual clip, by placing this element directly after the ASX tag. These items are referenced by their names and an index value of zero.
