CLIPSTER Edit Tool User Guide
tion you can check your bin, and thus your timeline, more thoroughly
for errors and inconsistencies.
After the selection of the menu option Check Bin the DVS software
verifies that each frame of each clip and each audio file is present on
the storage. If inconsistencies are found, i.e. missing files, you will get
the following error message:
Figure 9-13: Error message of inconsistencies in the bin
The error message provides a detailed list of all clips that could not be
verified. With the button DELETE THESE CLIPS you can then delete the
faulty clips from your bin, or you can proceed to the inconsistent bin
with the button IGNORE.
If you are opening a project created on another system, you can also
search for the missing material by altering the default paths of the DVS
software (e.g. the System base video directory, see “CLIPSTER Con-
figurations” user guide). A click on the button SEARCH MATERIAL opens
the following window:
If the first and/or last frame of a clip is missing, you will be in-
formed about this the same way as described in this section.
Missing frames will be substituted during a play-out with the
DVS software by a standard image (see section “Consistencies
of Clips” on page 6-63).
Changing theses paths will alter the DVS software’s default
settings – not only for this project but for the DVS software in
general. If not set back to the original default paths following
your work on this project, it will have implications on previ-
ously created as well as future projects.
For more details about the individual paths and their meaning
see the “CLIPSTER Configurations” user guide.
