window or a prefix is added to the clip name if defined in the Auto-Name / Clip
settings.
Guardbands
The guardbands are A/V material which is added on both sides of the clip
boundaries when the clip is created.
When a new clip is saved, the guardband defined in seconds in this setting will
automatically be added before the IN point of the clip and after the OUT point of
the clip.
Default Clip Duration
The default clip duration makes it possible to create a new clip with the default
duration specified in this setting when only the IN point or the OUT point has been
defined.
Create Clips on all Synchronized Recorders
When this setting is selected, clips will automatically be created on all recorders
ganged to the recorder on which the user creates a clip.
The clip that the user has created will have the extension 00 after the name and
the clips created on the ganged recorders will have extension 01, 02, etc.
depending on the number of ganged recorders.
Automatic Clip Creation based on Logs
The automatic clip creation based on the logs allows for a clip to be created
around a captured timecode on a log sheet using the parameters defined in this
setting.
If the Pre Mark and Post Mark are set to 5 sec, which are the default values, the
clip that will be created will have an IN point 5 seconds before the log timecode
and an OUT point 5 seconds after the log timecode.
For more information on the creation of automatic clips, refer to section “How to
Create Clips Automatically from a Logged Event”, in the Database Explorer
chapter.
Default Clip ID Display Mode
The clip ID mode determines which ID will be used by default in the display:
Name, UmID or VarID.
Default XT for Partial Restore
Clips published from XFile are displayed in the Database Explorer, and can be
loaded to a Control Panel. When the user creates a sub-clip from a file stored in
XFile and published, IPDirector will save the sub-clip on the EVS server specified
in the option.
