9: Introduction to MVCP
Loading, Creating, and Unloading a Clip
To load and unload a clip into a unit, use the following commands, respectively:
LOAD unit-name clip-name OUT CRTE
UNLD
unit-name
unit-name Specifies the name of the unit on which the clip is loaded.
clip-name Specifies the name of the clip to be loaded.
The OUT option means that the clip, clip-name, can only be played, not recorded onto.
Other valid values include IN, which means the clip will be recorded onto, and BOTH,
which means the clip can be played or recorded onto.
CRTE creates the clip. Without a CRTE argument, the clip does not exist in the clip cache.
Finding the Name of a Clip
If you do not know the name of a clip, you can list all of the clips by issuing the clip list
command:
CLS
Setting Edit Points
The in and out edit points specify where the source video is to begin and end playing,
and where the beginning and ending recording points are on the record deck, usually the
SGI Media Server.
When a clip is played, by default the edit in point is used as the starting point for play.
To set edit points, use the CEDP command:
CEDP clip-name in-point out-point
Note: The media outside of the in and out points is not actually erased; it will not be
played.
