Outputting Clips in Assemble Mode
If you do not have time to black an
entire tape, you can black a small portion of the tape and output
clips to the tape in assemble mode. In this mode, the timecode on
the tape is generated by the VTR as part of the recording process.
Make sure that timecode regeneration is properly configured on the
VTR. Autodesk recommends blacking one minute at the beginning of
the tape.
If outputting a clip
in assemble mode, extend the duration of the output to avoid problems
when you need to recapture the segment. For example, this can be
done by adding 5 to 10 seconds of black at the beginning and at
the end of the clip, before entering the output clip module.
To
output a clip in assemble mode:
- On the VTR, set the TC generator switch
to Internal and Regen to make the VTR generate the timecode. Refer
to your VTR manual for instructions on setting the TC generator.
TipIf you have just
added black to your tape, the VTR should already have these settings.
- Set clip output options. See
Outputting a Single Clip.
- With the clip you want to output in the
Output Clip menu, set the clip output in and out points. See
Setting Input and Output In and Out Points.
- If black was not added at the end of
the clip, make sure the out point exceeds the duration of the clip
by five to ten seconds.
- Select the Assemble option from the Output
box.
- Click Assemble to output the clip in
assemble mode.
