Configuring the External Device for the Record
To record the output of the VENICE server with the external device the
device has to be set up properly:
y If not already activated, switch to the recorder controls by selecting
the tab RECORDER (see section “Controlling the Devices (Player /
Recorder)” on page 3-14).
y Make sure that the autoedit record mode is selected (see section
“Recorder Controls” on page 3-14).
y Use the recorder controls and the video overlay to search for the
exact inpoint in the material of the externally connected device.
y Press the IN button to set the inpoint to the selected position. Alter-
natively, you may enter the respective position manually in the
entry field of the inpoint afterwards pressing [Enter].
y After that use the controls to move to the desired outpoint in the
material.
y Click on the button OUT or enter the position in the respective
entry field to the right of the OUT button and afterwards press
[Enter].
With this the selected in- and outpoint will be shown in the associated
entry fields of the record controls and the duration will be set accord-
ingly.
As the next step you have to start the record.
Starting the Record
When everything is set up properly, you can start the autoedit record at
any time:
y To start the autoedit record press the button AUTO EDIT of the
record controls ( ).
The VENICE server will then initiate the record on the external device:
The external device will go to its preroll position and start playing from
there. As soon as the specified inpoint is reached the play-out of the
server starts and the external device performs the record up to the set
outpoint/duration (characters in the position field turn red). After this
the play-out operation of the VENICE server stops automatically. Once
the external device stops its operation (postroll), the video material has
been recorded successfully on the external device.
Alternatively, you may also specify just one of the entries for in-
or outpoint and afterwards set the duration of the record.
To terminate the autoedit record manually you have to click the
record button once again.
