head & tail Head and tail are represented by a timecode in
the timecode format. They will be subtracted or
added to the source in- or outpoint by the
I/O Tool automatically to provide reserves for
further corrections during editing. More infor-
mation about the timecode format can be found
in the “CLIPSTER Edit Tool” user guide.
comment A comment is a string. You may use all charac-
ters except a [TAB].
transition A transition is detailed in the following format:
<transition type>,<duration>
The duration is notated in frames. Valid transi-
tion types are:
Ccut
D dissolve
Wwipe
Example: W,20
name of the video
clip in the bin
name of the audio
clip in the bin
The names of video or audio clips in the bin are
names of clips that already exist in the bin.
While capturing a batch, these entries will be set
by the I/O Tool automatically. Therefore, a
manually written capture list should not include
these values. Furthermore, it is recommended
not to alter these values after a record operation
because then the capture list will not be able to
find the respective clips in the bin anymore. The
names in this field are separated by a semicolon
and for multi-clips only one entry is made.
transition IN number
transition OUT num-
ber
If a clip is followed by a transition, the IN value
will provide a number of the transition (integer
number in ascending order). The same number
will appear at the OUT value of the clip that fol-
lows the transition. If no transition follows or
precede a clip, this value should be zero (0).
