 Enter Mark In point from the keyboard:  Use the mouse or Tab key to move between In 
and Out fields.  When a field is highlighted, enter a numeric value from the keyboard. 

 

Whether a clip is still or playing, press Mark In to capture a time code value from the clip’s 
current position. 

Marking the Out Point 

Sets the current time code value into the Mark Out point time display.  The 

Mark Out

 button can 

capture a time code value from the clip when it is still, or on-the-fly. 

Mark Out Display 

Displays the Mark Out point time code.  When no Mark Out point has been set manually, this 
displays the EOM time code (originally the end time of the recording). 

The values in this display window may be set by two methods: 

 

Enter Mark Out point from the keyboard:  Use the mouse or Tab key to move between In 
and Out fields.  When a field is highlighted, enter a numeric value from the keyboard. 

 

Whether a clip is still or playing, press Mark Out to capture a time code value from the 
clip’s current position. 

Duration Display 

Displays the total running time (TRT) of the current clip.  TRT is defined as the difference in the time 
codes between the first and last frames, plus one. For example, if the first frame of the clip is 
00:00:00:00 and last frame displayed at the end is 00:00:01:15, the reported duration will be 
00:00:01:16.   

With NTSC drop-frame time code, the true play duration may not be the exact numerical value of 
((Mark Out – Mark In) + 1) due to the discontinuities in the drop-frame time line. The true run time is 
shown in the Clip Navigator. 

 Auditioning the Mark In Point (Review Clip Button)  

The Review Clip button   

|<–>|

   cues the clip to the Mark In point (or SOM, if no Mark In point 

exists) and begins playback.  Review Clip will stop at the Mark Out point.  The Mark Out point will be 
displayed in Still mode. 

The Review Clip button may be used to check the Mark In point without playing all the way through 
the clip.  After Review Clip is pressed and play begins, all of the standard transport buttons are 
available for use.
