Playing Clips in the Player
Load clips from the Desktop into the Player.
The Player provides the controls you need to play clips of any resolution,
navigate clips, change the pan and zoom settings, and monitor up to
two tracks of audio.
There
are a few ways to load clips from the Desktop into the Player.
To load a clip into the Player from the Desktop:
- With the clip that you want to load into
the Player on a Desktop reel, move the clip over the reel controls.
- Click Play or, with the cursor over the
clip, press Esc.
The Player appears with
the selected clip. The Clip & Setup tab displays clip information,
including the clip name, resolution, number of frames per second.
- Use the playback controls to play the
clip. See
Controlling Playback in the Player.
Use the Clip Attributes
area to set in and out points and cue marks on specific frames of
a clip. See
Marking Frames of Interest and
Setting In Points and Out Points.
Use the tabs to access
the Player's Clip & Setup, Deliverables, Timeline, and AudioDesk
menus.
TipYou can use the colour
pot next to the Exit Play button to sample colours from the clip.
It does not set the colour of anything in the Player.
To load an entire reel into the Player
from the Desktop:
- With the clip or clips that you want
to load into the Player on a Desktop reel, hold the cursor over
a clip on the reel.

in the Clip Name field and the clip's resolution appears in the
Clip Resolution field (this field cannot be edited).
