Record to Tape
Stripe Tape
In order to be able to edit in Insert mode, the recording tape must have a consistent timecode (or,
in Assemble mode, of at least a few seconds for a first cut-in scene, respectively). You should only
do without a precoded tape when you select the Dump To Tape option and are sure that the
Sequence can be transferred to the tape in one run. If there are interruptions, the recorder might
no longer start with a clean cut.
During coding there is a black signal at the hardware video output, or a selected Sequence as
leader.
Tapes for use in i.Link controlled DV devices do not have to be striped.
Open Stripe Tape
Click the Stripe Tape tab to call the coding options.
Select Stripe Sequence
Choose whether you want to start coding with a specific
leader. Click Select Stripe Sequence and from the menu that
opens select the Sequence you want (you can make your own
Sequences and store them in Project templates so that they are
always available whenever you create a Project. The list of avail-
able Sequences is always for the current Project).
The Head Frame and the Tail Frame of the Sequence are dis-
played in the image window.
