Capturing Clips
I
A
The respective position will be taken to the entry field of the outpoint.
When either the radio button of the In or Out item is selected, the du-
ration field will set itself in accordance with the other two settings.
Now you have to log the data to the capture list:
y Press the LOG button.
Then the I/O Tool transfers the specified data to the first row of the
capture list and you can see it in the capture list table of the tool area.
You may now perform the above mentioned steps as often as desired
to select other positions from the material of the external player. Nor-
mally, if the general settings are not changed, each new entry will be
entered with the same clip name but an added increased consecutive
number to the capture list.
When you have finished setting up the capture list, you may save it to
a project or a capture list file for further processing (see section “Pre-
paring a Capture List File Manually” on page 5-56) or for a later record-
ing. Nevertheless, you may also start a record operation right now and
process the batch (see section “Recording a Batch” on page 5-57).
Processing an EDL/Cut List with the Batch Record Mode
The I/O Tool is also able to process offline edited EDLs (types GVG 6.0,
CMX 340, CMX 3400 and CMX 3600) or cut lists from other systems.
They can be imported and the I/O Tool will automatically translate
them to the capture list format.
If the duration is selected via the radio buttons instead of one
of the other two items, the inpoint field would adjust itself in
dependence on the set duration and the confirmed outpoint.
There is also the possibility to deactivate all radio buttons. For
this simply click on the active radio button to deactivate it.
Then the fields can be set according to a ’three entry’ rule:
Once two entries are made, the third and remaining one will be
set automatically.
The adding of a consecutive number to the clip name is a con-
figurable feature (see section “Name Options” on page 5-15).
Each new clip logged to the capture list should provide a
unique path or name. Otherwise, the clips may be overwritten
when recording the batch.
The button LOG will always write your data to a new row in the
capture list table, whereas the button MODIFY will change the
data in the row that is nominated by the number in the entry
field Pos. Nr..
Various other information that an EDL or cut list may provide,
such as dissolves to black, freezes or speed changes, are also
retained and saved in the capture list format.
