Appendix B, Matrox Axio Workflows
Workflow example for exporting offline HD clips
In this workflow example, a Matrox Uncompressed HD codec is used to capture
material for use in an online editing project. The Matrox MPEG-2 I-frame HD
codec could also be used to capture online-quality video for this workflow. The
clips are exported from the timeline to disk using the Matrox Offline HD codec.
They are then transferred to a remote editing workstation. When the offline edit is
complete, the Premiere Pro project (.prproj) file is transferred from the remote
editing workstation to the Matrox Axio system so that it can be used to complete
the project’s online version.
On Matrox Axio, the offline project file is imported into the original online
project and each offline clip is linked to the original source file using Premiere
Pro’s
Link Media command. The project is then exported to tape for broadcast.
This workflow scenario is represented in the following diagram:
