When you click OK, and then Quit in the Partial Restore dialog, the Partial

restore

command creates a corresponding file into the current folder. The

file is referred to as a virtual file as it contains no data but is actually a

directory entry which points to the designated sub clip in the original file.

Partial Restore of MXF OPATOM

The Destination file name is the name of the directory where the virtual

files will be stored. There is one virtual file per AV source file. The edit

box for

Destination is empty by default and you can enter a relative or

absolute path.

Note that in this case, the Destination field defines the directory where the

OPATOM subdirectories and files will be created. When you click

OK,

and then

Quit in the Partial Restore dialog, the virtual files are created into

complete.

Once the virtual file is created, a window displays.

Note: The partial restore of OP1A is not successful if the destination

file name already exists.

Note: The partial restore of OPATOM is not successful if the
