Event Handles
This numeric slider specifies whether to capture more frames than the events
require i.e. handles. Setting the Event Handles to 5, will capture 5 frames of
head and 5 frames of tail for each enabled event.
The addition of handles might be applied in order to capture as much
of each media clip as might be later needed and to allow later
trimming of the media clip within the composition. Adding handles
can also be used to lengthen events in the composition list so that
their timecodes overlap with others and various events can be
consolidated and captured as a single media clip using the
'Consolidate Events and Tapes' function.
Consolidation
Default : Consolidate on tape
Consolidation is the grouping together of overlapping events (generally by
timecode) into a single "event" which can be processed (captured) as one.
This can minimise the amount of work required to capture the same amount
of material. Consolidation reduces the total number of events to capture.
Don't consolidate
Ignore potential consolidation and show every event in
the list.
Consolidate on
tape
Consolidate overlapping timecodes within the same
tape.
Consolidate on
clip
Consolidate overlapping timecodes within the same clip.
You can also use consolidate in conjunction with the handles
function to increase the length of media required by events that are
close in their timecodes but not overlapping. By making them overlap
on purpose, the source material can be captured in one go as a
single clip.
Capturing the List
When ready, press Capture List to start the capture.
Once capture starts, the Capture List button turns red.
