To start ALICE click the ALICE Button beneath the image
processing configuration list in the input tab of ALGUI.
Any preselected image processing file will be applied in
ALICE, as long as it is compatible with ALICE’s configuration.
If not, or if no file is selected at all, ALICE will be opened
with default settings. Geometry, loader LUT and calibration
can be preselected before opening the ALICE window or
inside the ALICE window. If a chosen setting is not compatible
with the ALICE configuration default values will come up.
The ALICE window is separated into the viewer area
and the configuration area
photo
.
2.1 Viewer area
The viewer area includes the viewer window, timeline,
projectable area, pixel info and display settings. It offers a
visual control of the raw input sequence and is used to
create interactively the configuration parameters. A preview
shows the actual position of the final images on the film.
• The ‘
original
’ view shows the original raw input
images.
• The ‘
processed
’ view accurately displays the effects
of the chosen filter and geometry settings (output
format, crop area, deinterlace, sharpen and CMS, if
activated).
• The ‘
film
’ view shows the processed images
positioned on the film for final control.
• The ‘
timeline
’ is simply a display of a frame range.
By default it is the length of the clip or sequence. It
does not limit or control the actual start/end
parameters saved in the jobscript.
