Logging and Batch Digitizing

You can log shots and batch digitize them. To do this, you shuttle through the tape, mark in and out points that correspond to the sections you want to digitize, and then add those sections to a list of shots to digitize all at once.

To batch digitize shots from a video tape:

1. Click Editing, and then click Capture.

   The Capture menu appears.

2. Select a raster for capture. See Selecting a Raster for Capture.
3. In the Video Capture Format list, select the file format that you want to create during the capture operation.
4. In the Naming group, enter values in the Capture and Tape fields. See Capture Menu Options.
   WarningIt is important that you enter a tape name to avoid overwriting previously captured files.
5. Set the in and out points. See Setting In and Out Points.
6. In the EDL Log group, click Add to add the selected material to the events list.

   
   

7. To view the events list, click Editing, and then Assemble.

   
   

   You need to mark the captures before returning to the Capture menu: click in the Event column to select an entry, or click Select All, and then click Mark for Capture.The entries marked for batch digitization appear in the Assemble menu.

   
   

8. Continue adding entries to the events list as needed.
9. (Optional) To delete an entry from the events list, select it from the Assemble window and click Delete Selected. Click it a second time to confirm the action. To clear the list, click Delete All.
