Note: The OUT point (field) is always excluded. When playing a clip, it will freeze on the
field preceding the OUT point marked by the operator.
Modification of CLIP IN / OUT points:
Select the clip that you wish to modify, use the JOG dial to position the
material at the new IN or OUT point, and re-mark the IN or OUT point(s)
as required.
!
Important note: when IN/OUT points are set and a clip is saved, the system
automatically write-protects a user definable length of material before and after the
IN/OUT points respectively. These are referred to as the GUARDBANDS. Their
duration can be set in the SETUP menu under «Guardbands» (page 2 – F2) as
required.
The duration of the guardband after the OUT point can be reduced according to the
quantity of video/audio material available when saving the clip.
JOG KNOB :
Used to accurately cue material.
FAST JOG :
When selected enables FAST picture search. The actual speed of this
fast jog is adjustable in the SETUP menu. Starting a PLAY or returning
to E2E mode resets the FASTJOG mode.
The JOG dial is active at all times when the system is in PLAY & RECORD.
The brake is automatically turned on when starting a playback with the
PLAY key or with the lever, or when returning to E2E mode with the
RECORD button.
LEVER:
Used to perform slow-motion from 0 - 100%, and to playback material
from –100 to –100% or from –200 to + 200% when Secondary Lever range
is selected. The lever has a continuous, linear range, except when Super
Motion material is loaded on the primary channel. In this case, there is a
“flat step” at 33% (SD Super Motion) or 50% (HD Super Motion) to help
the operator locating easily the ideal playback speed.
!
Important note: When playing Super Motion material in slow motion, to obtain the
smoothest replay, it is important that the replay speed is exactly the ideal slow motion
speed, i.e. 33% for SD Super Motion or 50% for HD Super Motion. If the replay
speed is slightly off these ideal values, movements might appear staggered. These
ideal speeds can also be called directly by pressing the PLAY button when the
current element is Super Motion. The PROGRAM SPEED and VAR MAX modes
can also be used to facilitate this (refer to Chapter 8 for a description of these
modes).
