01:00:15:00, CUE NAME, optional descriptionA Playlist is a named set of sequences — think of it as one night's show or one performance. You can have multiple playlists (e.g. "Night 1", "Night 2", "Rehearsal"). Only the active playlist is used in live mode; sequences from other playlists are completely invisible to TC tracking. Switch playlists using the Playlists panel in the sidebar.
A Sequence (or song) is a timed block within a playlist — typically one song, act, or scene. Each sequence has its own start TC, duration, and a list of cues. In the sidebar's Sequences panel you can reorder them by dragging the ⠿ handle, select multiple to move or delete them, and add new sequences.
Tracks are the departments or data streams in your show — for example "Lighting", "Audio", "Video". Each cue belongs to one track. In the Tracks panel you can create, rename, and toggle which tracks are visible.
A show can also have one camera track. Its cues are assigned to a numbered camera rather than a normal track, and they drive the camera views: the single-camera cockpit and the Camera Prompter.
A cue has a timecode, a name, an optional description, and a duration. Duration is Auto by default, meaning the cue runs until the next cue on the same track. Set an explicit length instead when a cue should end early and leave a gap. Deleting a cue asks what should happen to the one before it — leave the gap, or extend it to fill the space.
In Edit Mode you add, edit and rearrange cues. Select a sequence from the sidebar, then edit any cue row directly — timecode, name, description. The + CUE button adds one at the current playhead, and right-clicking a cue row opens quick actions.
The Timeline along the bottom shows every cue in the active sequence on a time axis.
Audio and video come from a media folder on your own computer, chosen in Settings → Media. Sequences reference files by name and resolve them from that folder. The files themselves are never uploaded — only the filename is shared with your collaborators, so everyone stays fast and your media stays yours.
Attach a file to a sequence with the ↑ Attach button next to the filter icon, or from Sequence Settings. Audio shows as a waveform in the timeline; video also opens a video panel beside the cue list.
Media is owner-only and desktop-only. Editors, viewers and phones see no media UI at all.
For a sequence with video, the cue list and the video sit side by side. The panel is resizable and collapsible, and its width is remembered per project. It's a read-only mirror of the playhead — it never drives the timeline. Use ⧉ to pop the video into a second, clean window for dual-screen work; close that window and it returns inline.
Press Go Live to switch to the live cockpit: what's ON AIR, the NEXT cue as a large hero, then as many upcoming cues as fit your window. Only sequences in the active playlist are tracked.
CueFlow follows three sources, chosen in Settings → Timecode:
If timecode lands slightly off, apply a global correction with TC Offset.
Share the show with the globe icon in the sidebar. Each access link carries a PIN and a role:
Links can only be created while you're online, since they live in your account. Once created they keep working offline.
The Camera Prompter is a green-screen overlay for camera operators. Each selected camera gets its own block showing what it's on now (red), what's next with a countdown (amber), and what's coming after. Key the green out in your switcher and the text sits over the program image.
With CueFlow running on your computer, crew on the same network can still join, load the show and follow timecode with no internet — using access links created earlier. The Sharing panel tells you before showtime whether offline join will work.
Export a show to a .cueflow file from the project menu, and import one the same way. If the file matches a project already in your account, CueFlow says so — and if your account's copy is newer, it offers to open that instead of importing over your work.
