Displaying Additional Details About a Clip
In addition to the clips panel, you can open three other information windows that offer a large number
of additional details about a selected clip. These windows do not require any user input (they are
modeless dialog boxes) so you can have them open all the time and use them as a reference while you
work on the clips in the main window.
1. Select a clip in the clips panel.
2. Click View > Clip Properties to display the clip properties’ window, View > Camera Metadata to
display the metadata window or View > Custom Picture to display the custom picture settings’
window.
• You can also right-click on a clip in the clips panel and select the desired window from the
contextual menu that opens.
NOTES
• Fields with a icon next to them (Status, and User Memo fields like Clip Title or Location in the Clip
Properties window) are the only fields that can be edited using XF Utility (0 26). All other fields are
for informational purposes only and cannot be changed.
Clip Properties Displays general information about the clip, including the date and time of
recording, the clip’s duration, settings used while recording (resolution, video bit
rate, etc.), User Memo profile and more.
Camera Metadata Displays information about the camcorder’s settings (shutter speed, aperture,
focus mode, gain, ISO speed, white balance, etc.) used when recording the
frame shown in the video display area. During playback, the information will be
continuously updated.
Custom Picture Displays information about the custom picture settings used when recording the
clip. If the clip was recorded without using custom picture settings, only the clip
name will be displayed.
