• Determines whether the current resolution
matches the Transcode resolution in the Edi-
tor Export Settings for Pro Tools plug-in in the
Interplay Administrator. Depending on
whether the settings match, one of the follow-
ing occurs:
• If the settings either match or have not
been created for the check-in folder, the
system creates a sequence that links to the
existing media and does not create a video
mixdown or render any video effects.
• If the settings do not match, the system
transcodes the sequence according to the
setting in the Export Settings for Pro Tools
plug-in and links the sequence to this new
media. The system also renders (or re-ren-
ders) all video effects to match the
transcode resolution. The application over-
rides the “Link To” option in order to guar-
antee that you have access to a resolution
supported by Pro Tools.

After Checking In a Sequence to
Interplay for Pro Tools
The system exports the sequence from
Media Station|PT, and then checks in the se-
quence to Interplay.
If the Interplay folder containing the exported
sequence has been configured with video and
audio settings defined in the Editor Export Set-
tings for Pro Tools plug-in, those settings are ap-
plied to the sequence. (These settings can apply
to either the entire database or to one or more
folders, depending on how they are configured.)
When you use Media Station|PT to check in a se-
quence to Interplay for Pro Tools, the system
chooses a destination folder in the Interplay da-
tabase based on the current Interplay view set-
tings, with the default destination folder as fol-
lows:
Projects\project_name\bin_name
If your check-in destination folder is a folder for
which settings have not been defined, the sys-
tem displays the Pro Tools Export Settings dia-
log so you can specify the settings.
