Live Edit Decision Lists (EDL)
Edit Decision Lists are files used by non-linear
editing (NLE) suites to aid in post-production. Your
switcher can capture EDL data in a file that you load
into your NLE suite.
Configuring Live EDL Behavior
You can configure your switcher to trigger multiple
GPI outputs at the start, end, or both of EDL data
capture. You can also set a pre-delay for each GPI
output. EDL data capture does not begin until the
highest pre-delay has passed. This is useful when the
switcher needs to wait for external equipment to
become ready. The example below shows the effects
of various triggering and pre-delay settings.
Figure 4.1 Live EDL Timeline
1. EDL capture is manually started. GPI output 2 is

data.

output is triggered. You can choose from the
following:
• Off — The GPI output is not triggered.
• Start — The GPI output is triggered at the
start of EDL data capture.
• Stop — The GPI output is triggered at the
end of EDL data capture.
• Both — The GPI output is triggered at both
the start and end of EDL data capture.
7. If you selected Start or Both in step 6, use the
PreDly knob to specify the number of
frames the switcher delays after the GPI output
is triggered before EDL capture begins.
