Tape List View
 
 
 

Use Tape List view to see all the tapes needed to assemble the current EDL or all currently open EDLs. In a regular EDL, you can see how raw source footage should be captured into an edited record timeline using timecode. Generally, the source footage is listed in an EDL based on its chronological order in the timeline.

You can use the tape list to modify information pertaining to events for a given tape.

As well, each tape's entry can be expanded in Tape List view to show keycode and 2:3 pulldown information associated with the source timecode.

Click the column header to sort the tape list in descending order using that column. Click the column heading again to sort the tape list in ascending order.
