CLIPSTER Edit Tool User Guide
In the entry field Path enter the drive/directory where the EDL should
be saved. You may also click on the button to the right of this field ( )
to select an already existing file.
In the entry field Name you have to state the file name of the EDL to
be created.
Creating the EDL
Once the settings to export an EDL are complete, you can start the gen-
eration of the EDL with the buttons at the bottom of the window:
9.2.11 Finalize…
With the menu option Finalize… you can generate a new clip from a
project’s timeline in a freely configurable format and raster without af-
fecting the original material. This is in detail described in section “Final-
izing the Timeline” on page 6-80.
Notation: drive_letter:\directory\subdirecto-
ry\filename
Instead of the backslash (\) you may also use a
slash (/).
Example: V:\tempest\edl\
Notation: The file name can be a standard file name of the
Windows operating system, i.e. do not use one of
the following characters:
% / \ : * ? " < > |
You may leave out the file extension.
Example: tempest_edl
OK Use this button to start the generation of the EDL.
After the EDL is successfully created, the window
to set up the EDL creation will be closed and you
will return to the main window of the DVS soft-
ware.
CANCEL With this button you can close the window to ex-
port an EDL without creating it. You will then re-
turn to the main window of the DVS software.
Time stretching or time compression information will not be
observed during the creation of the EDL (see section “Time
Stretching or Time Compression of Clips” on page 6-56).
