8. Clip Management
8.1 Introduction
8.1.1 Clip Structure
A clip is defined by Short IN and Short OUT points. When referring to Short IN and Short
OUT points, the operators usually use the terms IN point and OUT point.
When Short IN and Short OUT points are set, the system automatically write protects a
user definable length of material before and after the Short IN/OUT points respectively,
these are referred to as the guardbands.
For this reason, the IN point before the guardbands and the OUT point after the
guardband are called Protect IN point and Protect OUT point.
It is possible to trim a clip by redefining Short IN and Short OUT points.
If Short IN and Short OUT points are defined, only the fields between those two points will
be played if the sequence is recalled (the same applies when the sequence is included in
a playlist).
Fields between Protect IN and Short IN and fields between Short OUT and Protect OUT
( guardbands) can be reached with the jog. So the Short IN and Short OUT points can be
redefined.
Note
• Protect IN & Protect OUT points of a clip cannot be replaced by new ones.
• Short IN & Short OUT points of a clip can be replaced by new ones.
• Short OUT point is excluded. The clip freezes on previous field when playing
back (with Post-Roll disabled).
• (Short) IN & OUT are always on even fields. This is automatic.
