You have the possibility to modify the TC IN and/or the TC OUT of a recorded clip.
To select a new IN and/or OUT point within the [Protect IN – Protect OUT]

follows:
1.
Load a clip on a control panel.
2.
To edit the IN point, move through the clip, as explained in section 1.5
‘Moving Within Media’ on page 58, until you find the position you want to
mark as new IN point.
The left timecode field reflects the actual position of the cursor, after
moving.
The right duration field reflects
•
the duration from the cursor position to the IN point if it is before the IN
point, and it is displayed in grey,
OR

the duration between the cursor and the OUT point if it is after the IN
point, and it is displayed in yellow.
