Figure 5-21: Creating a timeline in the Edit Tool
To record clips and build up a timeline from an EDL or cut list
the file must contain in- and outpoint information (source and
destination timecodes).
The clips will be arranged on the timeline according to their
destination in- and outpoints. EDLs and cut lists should provide
these information by default. Composed capture lists in the
I/O Tool are provided with destination in- and outpoints auto-
matically during the logging procedure: They will be arranged
on the timeline in the same sequence as they were initially
logged in the capture list.
Additional information provided by an EDL or cut list, for ex-
ample, transitions, freezes, speed changes, etc., are created by
the I/O Tool on the timeline as well. However, depending on
your system’s capabilities they may require a prerendering prior
to a play-out.
