The Load Clip window lists the name, duration, and format of each clip that is
stored under /usr/vtr/clips, which is the VST clip cache. For example,
clip_8.231 has a duration of 00:00:10.01 and its format is MPEG-2. (If the
duration contains an asterisk [*], it means that no material has been recorded in
the clip.)
Note: If a clip is stored in a directory within /usr/vtr/clips, that directory
name precedes the clip name. For example, if the clip name appears as
ADS/COMM1, the clip is stored in /usr/vtr/clips/ADS/COMM1.
■ Select the clip that you want to load. (You select the clip by pointing to it with
the mouse cursor and pressing the left mouse button.)
■ If you want to record over this clip, click Record Enable. (When recording is
enabled, the yellow LED is lit in the Record Enable button.) Click Record
Enable a second time if you want to disable this option.
■ Click the OK button. The window closes and the selected clip appears in the
Media Control Panel. The cue for playout button (—>|>) is enabled. If the clip
can be recorded over, the cue for recording button (—>|
•
) is also enabled.
2. Change the cue points, as needed. (See “Changing Cue Points and Edit Points” on
page 151 for information.)
3. Click the cue for playout button (—>|>) or the cue for recording button (—>|
•
).
Note: If you cue the clip first, the clip starts playing or recording as soon as you click
the play or record button. If you do not cue the clip beforehand, the control panel
automatically cues the clip and then starts playing or recording it. In the latter case,
there is a delay before the requested function begins.
4. Click the play button (>) to start the playout or the record button (
•
) to start
recording.
5. To stop playing or recording, click the stop button (■).
Note: If you want to replay or re-record the clip after it stops, the clip must be
re-cued. If you click the play or record button without first clicking the cue button,
the control panel automatically cues the clip before it starts playing or recording.
