Media Source Files and the Inspector Window
When you select a job in the Batch window, the Inspector window shows you information
about the job’s source media file and allows you to add annotations, closed caption files,
and job actions.
The Inspector window contains three tabs: A/V Attributes, Additional Information, and
Job Action.
A/V Attributes Tab
The A/V Attributes tab contains general information about the source media file and is
divided into three sections.
• File information: This section shows the filename, location, and type of file.
• Video information: This section, when applicable, shows all video-related information
about the file. This includes its frame size, frame rate, and timecode information.
• Audio information: This section, when applicable, shows all audio-related information
about the file. This includes its sample size and sample rate.
Additional Information Tab
The Additional Information tab allows you to see and modify a variety of metadata items
that might have been added in other applications such as Final Cut Pro, Soundtrack Pro,
or QuickTime. You can also add metadata items to the output media file. It also includes
the ability to associate a closed caption file with the file.
