•
Trim 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.
Mark Out Button
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:
•
Trim 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 or not 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. 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. The difference between the time code of the last frame and duration is
accounted for because this calculation is zero-based, and both the first and last frames play,
so both are counted when calculating duration.
With NTSC drop-frame time code, the displayed duration may not be the exact numerical
value of ((Trim Out – Trim In) + 1) due to the discontinuities in the drop-frame time line.

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.
Review Out Button
The Review Out button

may be used to audition the Mark Out point without playing all
the way through the clip. It will cue the clip to three seconds before the Mark Out point (or
EOM, if no Mark Out Point exists) and then begin playback. Review Out will stop at the
Mark Out Point.
After Review Out commences, all of the standard transport buttons are available for use.
