Shuttle control. For faster playback from the GUI, use the FAST FORWARD or REWIND buttons
as described in the preceding section.
In sports, slow-motion control is usually accomplished with a desk-top slow-mo controller, such
as those made by DNF Controls and others. These provide a hands-on experience far preferable
to using the GUI.
Using Shuttle to Control Playback Speed
The
Shuttle Control
is a slider bar that controls playback speed. Playback speed control employs
varispeed
algorithms that may skip frames. It is not a perfect fast motion mechanism.
The
center position
represents zero speed, or Still.
The
right
and
left
extents of the slider represent ±2x maximums.
The Shuttle control slider works in three basic ways: Snap-Back to still, Hold Speed, and Mouse
Wheel.
•
In
Snap-Back
operation, click and drag the slide control to change speed. Releasing the slider bar
will let it snap back to zero speed, or still.
•
For
Hold Speed
operation, position the cursor over the slider control scale (not the slider arrow)
and click the left mouse button to increment the speed control. The transport will run in the
selected direction at the selected speed without holding the mouse button down. The cursor may
now be moved over the Stop button to wait for the desired point.
•
When using a
wheel mouse
, position the cursor over the slider scale and rotate the wheel to
increment speed. Rolling the wheel in opposite directions changes the direction the arrow slider
moves. To stop video, click the Stop button or the arrow slider.
