XFile Clipname
Specifies the name of the clip that XFile will create for the backup of the record
train(s). The same clipname is assigned to each record train that is backed up in a
given job.
Output File Format
Seven different output formats are available to save the files: EVS MXF 2 MB,
MXF OP1a (SD IMX Only), Quick Time Movie, Quick Time Reference, Transfer to
Avid Ingest Device, Avid MXF OPAtom and Avid OP1a (Std SMPTE).
Path
Manually select/modify the path for this recording to the correct folder/disk.
Filename
Allows specifying an automatic filename for each possible file format selected in
the Output Mode group boxes.
See also section ‘Format String’ on page 129 and ‘How to Modify the Default
Format String for the Filename’, on page 129.
If the filename is not filled in, the default filename will be used. The approximating
filename is displayed below this field. It takes into account the expected values for
the fields included in the filename.
Output Mode
It is not mandatory to use Secondary and Third outputs. When no output format is
selected from the Output Mode field, Output Disabled is displayed.
Compulsory Output for Secondary and Third Output Modes
When the Compulsory Output check box is selected, all the jobs must be
completed. If the backup of the compulsory output failed, the entire job will be
stopped.
