# Session Panel

The Session Panel manages recorded facial-capture sessions in YanusLIVE Pro.

It scans the selected recordings folder and lists the sessions it finds.

```
C:\Users\Yanus4\Documents\MultiExpression\recordings
```

Example session folders:

```
MultiFaces
Smin
KHong
```

### What the list shows

Each row summarizes one recorded session.

It includes:

* Session name
* Duration
* FPS
* Available data types
* Validation status
* Current selection

Example:

```
MultiFaces   0:28   60 fps   V A B   Valid (Warnings)
Smin         1:22   60 fps   V A B   Valid (Warnings)
KHong        1:10   60 fps   V A B   Valid (Warnings)   Current
```

### Status indicators

`V A B` identifies the recorded assets in the session:

```
V = Video files exist
A = Audio files exist
B = Blendshape or animation data exists
```

`Valid (Warnings)` means the session is usable, but some checks need attention.

Warnings usually point to missing optional files, duration mismatches, or incomplete diagnostic data.

`Current` marks the active session.

In this example, `KHong` is the current session.

### Buttons

* **Open Folder** opens the recordings folder in Windows Explorer.
* **Change Folder...** changes the base folder used for session discovery.
* **Refresh** rescans the folder.

The session list is cached.

Press **Refresh** after external file changes.

### Why it matters

The Session Panel is more than a file browser.

It acts as the main session manager for the application.

The selected session becomes the source for playback, filter tuning, quality checks, DCC export, and downstream workflows such as Maya, Blender, Unreal, and MetaHuman integration.
