Source Area clip proxies and timeline segments contain information about the clip or segment such as its name and length in frames or timecode.
The amount and type of information that appears depends on the option selected in the Clip Information box in the General section of the Preferences menu or in the Source Area menu bar. See General Preferences.
The frames in a clip are numbered sequentially using either frame numbers or timecode (depending on the option selected). Timecode is always read from left to right, in hours, minutes, seconds, and frames.
In the following example, the Keycode/Timecode+Res option was selected from the Clip Information box.
(a) Clip duration (b) Framerate and Scan mode (c) Resolution, bit depth, and aspect ratio (d) Current timecode (e) Track information (f) Clip name
Clip durationThe duration differs depending on whether in and out points are marked on the clip, as outlined in the following table.
