With this button you can play out the bin clip in
real time. When a play-out is initiated, the contents
of the bin clip between the set in- and outpoint will
be displayed in its overlay on the left as well as at
the video output of the DVS system. If the bin clip
is an audio clip, the contents of the audio clip will
be played out at channel 1 and 2 of the system’s
digital audio outputs. If these are routed to the an-
alog outputs, you can hear the clip at these outputs
as well (see section “Configuring the Video and
Audio Output” on page 6-12). After activation the
button changes its appearance to its active state
( ) and you have to press it again to
stop the play-out.
To view the bin clip (video) on an addition-
ally connected monitor, you have to con-
figure the output format of the timeline
accordingly. The setting of the output for-
mat (video raster) of the project can be
configured with the button SETTINGS… at
the top left side of the timeline area (see
section “How to Configure the Video
Output” on page 6-12).
With the activation of a play of the bin
clip, a play of the timeline will be termi-
nated.
These buttons move the scrub bar cursor to the
next marked point on the scrub bar of the clip
coming from the bin. Marked points are the start
as well as end of the timeline or the set in- and out-
point. The first button jumps to previous points on
the timeline while the second button jumps to next
ones.
With the LOCK button you can synchronize the
timeline cursor of the timeline with the scrub bar
cursor of the bin clip. Then the timeline cursor will
adjust to your moves of the scrub bar cursor, for
example, if you scrub the bin clip’s scrub bar or
move via the buttons to step for- or backwards.
The way the synchronization is performed can be
set with the Configuration Tool (see “CLIPSTER
Configurations” user guide).
This way you can check a conformed, offline com-
posed project frame accurately with, for example,
the master in the timeline and the offline edited clip
in the source-edit mode.
