5.5.6 Preparing a Batch
With the Batch record mode you can perform several different record
operations from an externally connected player or other sources con-
nected to the DVS system in one step. By setting the record operation
to the appropriate source you can perform an autoconforming with the
Batch record mode and link the entries of a capture list, EDL or cut list
to material already available on a storage.
The necessary procedures that the I/O Tool has to perform are detailed
in a capture list. This list must be set up and composed prior to a record.
However, it is also possible to process EDLs or cut lists and translate
them into the capture list format for further adaptation or processing.
With the button MODIFY you can change an al-
ready set entry of the capture list. For this use
the Pos. Nr. field to select the row number
where you want to change the entry. Once your
alterations to the specifications of the selected
entry are finished, you can transfer them to the
desired position of the capture list with a click on
this button.
After your settings for the Batch record mode
are finished and the capture list is prepared, you
can start a record/conforming operation of the
I/O Tool with this button. Then the button
changes its appearance to its active state
( ) and the processing of
the capture list begins immediately. In case it is
necessary to terminate the operation prema-
turely, you have to click this button again.
After the record the project file will be
saved automatically to make sure that
the links of the bin clips are preserved.
If the project has not been saved yet,
the dialog window to save a project will
be displayed.
Usually, a once processed capture list cannot be processed
again. However, by selecting single rows from the capture list
you can process the selected clips once more. Please note that
previously recorded clips will not be overwritten normally. In-
stead they will be recorded anew and receive another directo-
ry/file name via their self-incrementing consecutive number
(see section “Storage Information” on page 5-9). However,
this behavior can be configured to your liking (see section
“Name Options” on page 5-15).
