Capturing Clips

In the path V:\tempest\act05\scene01 a subdirectory will be

created with the name Clip and an added _023 as its consecutive

number (meaning the 24th record made with the same clip name). In

this subdirectory the whole record operation will be saved.

The I/O Tool then automatically creates another subdirectory below

the first one where the first 20,000 frames of the record are stored

(Clip_023_000).

The file name of the first frame of your recorded clip will be

Clip_023_0000000.dpx. The second number in the file name will

increase by one with every recorded frame (file/frame number). If the

20,000th frame is reached, the I/O Tool will create a further subdirec-

tory (Clip_023_001) in the selected path and save the next

This subdirectory is created only when no duration has been set

prior to the record or when the amount of frames to be record-

ed exceeds the number set with the files per folder items (see

section “Path Options” on page 5-19). Otherwise the image

files will be stored directly under the directory Clip_023.
