Consolidating a Part of a Timeline

6.15.1. 'Replace', 'Create Clip from Timeline' and 'Live

to Tape' Functions

Introduction

The Replace function, the Create Clip from Timeline function, and the Live to Tape
function all make it possible to consolidate and replace a part of the timeline. However
those functions follow different purposes and methods.

Replace Function

The Replace function aims at replacing a part of a timeline by the initial A/V material as
well as A/V effects added by external devices. Typical use is to add graphical effects
inside a video track or to add mixed audio as voice-over to an audio track, by means of
external devices.

With the Replace function, the output:

overwrites the initial timeline material,

cannot be saved as a separate clip (and is therefore only available in the timeline),

is only available at the end of the Replace process.

Create Clip From Timeline Function

The Create Clip from Timeline function aims at replacing a part of a timeline that includes
several effects defined in IPEdit. This allows the consolidation of the A/V material in the
timeline. Typical use is to consolidate several consecutive small timeline elements into a
single clip, to ensure a smooth playout.
