Using the Time View
267
You can change the repeat mode of an extended-duration clip at any time using the
controls in the Timing tab of that image node. A clip’s repeating behavior is controlled
by the inMode and outMode parameters in the Timing tab of the FileIn parameters.
The inMode parameter controls the looping behavior of frames between the firstFrame
looping handle and the inPoint, and the outMode parameter controls the frames
between the outPoint and the lastFrame looping handle.
The following table lists the available repeat modes.
Mode
Result
Example
Black
No frames are repeated. Instead,
black frames are inserted.
Freeze
The first/last frames are repeated as a
freeze-frame.
Repeat
The clip is continuously repeated,
always starting from the first frame.
Mirror
The clip repeats, first in reverse order,
and then forward, indefinitely. To
provide a smooth transition, the first
frame does not repeat between the
loops.
Inclusive
Mirror
The entire clip repeats, first in reverse
order, and then forward, indefinitely.
