Clip Options
Clip Name
In the Clip Options menu, click on the Clip Name to name
the file you will be creating. Subsequent file numbers will
increment from this one.
Reel Name
Click on the hot text field to enter a source tape name—the
name of the tape on the VTR. Only QuickTime and DPX files
store this information.
Sequence Offset
When capturing file-per-frame sequences, after naming a
file, you can set a Sequence Offset number that will
determine the beginning number of the file sequence.
Create New Folder Per Sequence
A check-box is provided to enable this automatic function. When you check this selection,
Machina will gather each frame capture sequence in a new folder, based on clip names, on
your disk. (Not applicable to QuickTime or AVI movie files.)
Abort on Dropped Frames
Checking this box causes a capture to automatically stop any time that Io Express detects
frames are being dropped for some reason. This ensures you don’t waste storage space and
time capturing when there may be a problem with the capture.
Display Options
Display Options configure how the desktop display operates for capture.
Display Type
The Display Type pull-down menu provides a choice of display
rendering formats: OpenGL Texture or OpenGL DrawPixels.
This setting changes the way the PC’s GPU handles video
overlay on your desktop monitor. OpenGL Texture should
always be used whenever possible. Note, however that this
setting is not guaranteed to work on all boards. It has been
tested primarily with high-end nVidia workstation graphics
cards. Using OpenGL Texture mode will allow any applied
LUTs to be displayed on the desktop display as well as on the
video output.
Open GL DrawPixels should only be used when you are
experiencing display problems. Typically, this will be for
graphics cards that are not AJA approved, and that have less
OpenGL support. This mode does not allow applied LUTs to
be displayed on the desktop. This mode also has many limitations when working with YUV
files. When using this setting, files may appear pixelated on the desktop display. This does not
affect the quality or resolution of the video being captured or output from the Io Express card.
