Automation Conform
As video or film sections are inserted, deleted, and moved during post-production, the Conform utility realigns the automation
data to match the edited film. It is important to emphasize that Conform affects the automation data only; the audio must be re-
aligned in a separate operation.
Most film editing programs produce an Edit Decision List (EDL) with the start and end times, and duration for each edit, the op-
eration type (insert, delete, move), and a name or other descriptive information. The Conform utility does not process the EDL au-
tomatically. The EDL provides information that is manually delivered to the Conform utility.
Navigating the Conform Screen
From the bottom of the eMix screen, press the Conform tab to display the Conform screen.
Each entry is a note that appears in chronological order, and consists of: Start Time, Duration, End Time, Operation, and Total Change.
