To select a portion of video to capture:
1 In the Capture Tool, use one of the following
methods to mark the position where you want
the capture to begin:
• Press the Spacebar (or click Play) to start
playback on the VTR, and click Mark In at
the desired position.
• Use the Transport controls to queue the
tape to the position at which you wish to
start capturing, and click Mark In.
• Type a time code value in the Mark In field.
2 Use one of the following methods to mark the
position where you want the capture to end:
• If the VTR is playing back, click Mark Out
at the desired position.
• Use the Transport controls to queue the
tape to the position at which you wish to
end capturing, and click Mark Out.
• Type a time code value in the Mark Out
field.
The exact length of the clip to be captured ap-
pears in the Duration display.
3 You can also do the following:
• To automatically queue the tape to the
Mark In point, click Go to In.
• To automatically queue the tape to the
Mark Out point, click Go to Out.
• To automatically mark a specific frame (not
to be reflected in the capture), click Mark
Memory.
• To clear any of the Mark In, Mark Out, or
Mark Memory points, click Clear Display
next to the appropriate button.
• To begin capturing at a specific point for a
specific duration, type time code values in
the Mark In and Duration fields.
• To end capturing at a specific point for a
specific duration, type time code values in
the Mark Out and Duration fields.
• To begin an open-ended capture with no
definitive stopping point, type a time code
value in the Mark In field.
4 You are now ready to begin capturing, as de-
scribed in “Capturing Audio and Video with a
Video Satellite System” on page 126. When you
begin capturing, the VTR queues to the In point
and begins capturing video, then stops automat-
ically when it reaches the Out point.
You can capture without first entering an In
point, but this is not advised because of un-
predictable delays between clicking the
Record button and actually capturing video.
