EVS IPDirector Version 6.0 - November 2012 Part 8 User's Manual - Manual (Page 113)

Standard Insert/Overwrite Action
The user performs a standard insert or overwrite action when two reference positions (IN
point, OUT point, mark IN point, mark OUT point or nowline) are defined in the Player.
3-Point Edit
The user performs a 3-point edit when only one reference point is defined in the Player
pane, and two reference points are defined in the Timeline pane.
In this case, IPEdit calculates the portion of the source media to be added between the
mark IN and mark OUT points in the Timeline pane.
4-Point Edit
The user performs a 4-point edit when two reference points are defined in the Player pane
and two reference points are defined in the Timeline pane.
In this case, the material defined between the (mark) IN and (mark) OUT in the Player is
inserted between the mark IN and mark OUT in the Timeline. The speed is automatically
calculated to fit in the space between boundary marks.
