Advanced Playlisting
Editing a Clip
Although not a part of Advanced Playlisting, the Image Server provides accurate tools for
trimming the head and tail of a clip. Trimming and playlisting together allow the Image Server to
create accurate and complex rundowns. Trims
do
need to be performed
before
inserting a clip into
the playlist. (Edits to clips in an existing playlist will take effect the next time the list is loaded.)
The edit controls are activated with the
Edit
check box on each channel’s GUI window.
This region contains a number of buttons that define the beginning and end of a selected region,
plus their associated time code displays.
Non-destructive Mark In and Mark Out trim points can be set to define a portion of the clip
to be played. These “pointers” do not create a new clip from the original material; they act like
virtual trims, and material outside of the trim points is excluded, but can be retrieved by resetting
the Mark points. After setting the Mark In and Mark Out points, clips will play between these
points. These values are saved with the clip.
Edits may be saved to the current clip by de-selecting the
Edit
check box, or choosing
Save
from the clip window
File
menu.
Save As
works to save the edit points to a new clip name, even if
the edits have not been saved in the current clip. This is a great help while conducting an Edit-
while-Recording.
Mark In Button
Sets the current time code value into the Mark-In point time display. The Mark-In button can
capture a time code value from the clip when it is still, or on-the-fly.
Mark In Display
Displays the time code of the Mark In point. When no Mark In point has been set manually,
this displays the default SOM time code (00:00:00:00). Trim points will be automatically
rounded down to the nearest GOP boundary when edits are saved.
The values in this display window may be set by two methods:
•
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 time code for the Mark Out point. When no Mark Out point has been set
manually, this displays the default EOM time code.
