There are new enhancements
to the file browser and the EDL. The following is a list of the
improvements:
If the timeline is empty, a cut is automatically
created when you assemble an EDL. This cut has the same name as
the EDL.
EDL reel names containing long tape names
(more than eight characters) are now supported through the source
table. Some editorial applications support reel/tape names longer
than eight characters. A source table is produced that lists the
short reel/tape name and its corresponding long tape name. If this
information is part of the EDL, it is used when an EDL is assembled.
NoteLustre only shows
the short (eight characters) name, but when you export a cut as
EDL or render a grade, it uses the original long name.
A CMX3600 EDL coming from a third party
application such as Avid® and
Apple® Final
Cut Pro®,
is now supported with a source table. This allows Lustre to
match the short eight character EDL name to the long reel name.
Lustre supports the Avid EDL with a 16-character
reel name. The Avid EDL is specific to RED media.
