The Deck Control area contains the controls for operating the deck from MotionBuilder.
Use the Cue field to navigate through the tape. To move quickly to different areas of the tap, double-click the timecode and enter the time that you want to cue the tape.
Drag the Shuttle slider to the right to move forward through the timecode and to the left to move backward through the timecode.
The shuttle speed is determined by how far you move the slider in either direction.
Click the arrow keys at either end of the Shuttle slider to jog. Click and hold the slider to continue jogging.
The Timeline In Point field lets you enter a different In point for the Timeline, rather than using the take’s start point.
Click the Set button to set the Timeline In Point to local (software) time.
