When your VTR timeline should provide audio as well, you have to
specify further details about the audio format, too. In the future all vid-
eo and audio material will be recorded in the specified raster and for-
mats.
For the configuration of the base settings the window ’VTR-Timeline
settings’ provides the following items:
Once the settings are finished, you can confirm and initialize the VTR
timeline with the button OK at the bottom of the window for the VTR
timeline settings. The button CANCEL will abort the creation of a new
Plan this step carefully: At least the input settings have to be
determined here and all material captured with this VTR
project will be stored in this video and audio format. It will not
be possible to change some of the input settings of a VTR
timeline afterwards (e.g. raster and timecode settings).
The output format settings, i.e. the settings in the area Format
under the tabs VTR out and DVI/Analog can be changed later
at all times.
in-/output tabs These tabs switch between the input and output
format settings. They will be shown in the area
Format. While the first tab allows you to con-
figure the input settings (you can select the in-
put port(s) via a combo box), the latter two
configure the output settings (separately for SDI
and DVI/analog).
video settings With the items of the area Format, i.e. with the
buttons SD, HD, FILM, and OTHER and the list
box below them as well as the combo boxes and
entry fields to the right, you can select a video
format and specify further details about it.
A description of the settings items to
determine the video format and its de-
tails are not part of this user guide. You
can find further information about
them in the “CLIPSTER Configura-
tions” user guide.
general settings These items determine general settings for the
VTR timeline, such as its name and storage loca-
tion.
video file settings With the video file settings you set up the stor-
age format of the VTR timeline, such as the file
format.
audio file settings If your VTR timeline should provide audio as
well, enter the audio related settings in this area,
e.g. the file format or sampling rate.
