Apple Compressor 3 - Manual (Page 97)

Selecting a Target
Whenever you select a batch’s target, its setting immediately appears in the Inspector
window with Selected Target in the Name field. This is a temporary copy of the setting
and not the setting itself, so you can make temporary modifications to the setting for
just that one batch submission.
Select a target in the
Batch window to see
its settings in the
Inspector window.
The setting’s name shows
as “Selected Target”.
Click the Save As button
to save this as a new
setting with any
changes you make.
When you modify the target’s setting, the Save As button at the bottom of the Inspector
window becomes active. Click Save As to save the modified setting with a new name.
The saved copy appears in the Settings tab as Setting Name-Copy, and immediately
becomes the selected setting in the Settings tab.
Using the Inspector with Settings
The Inspector window contains the panes that let you create and modify all the settings
related to your output media file, such as filters, geometry, and output format. The
Inspector window is also where you name your settings, as well as add descriptions to
make it easier to remember later what you customized.
• Summary pane: Provides a detailed summary of a selected setting. See Summary Pane
for more information about this pane.
