5.6 ADDING LOGS TO A CLIP
5.6.1 I
NTRODUCTION
Whenever you want, you can add logs to the material loaded in the Clip Player, or
in the Storyboard Player. Even if you add the log in the Storyboard Player, the
logs are in fact added to the source clip.
A cue point is a log without associated metadata.
When keyword grids are stored in
C : \ P r o g r a m F i l e s \ E V S B r o a d c a s t
E q u i p m e n t \ X e d i o D i s p a t c h e r \ K e y w o r d G r i d s ,
the grids are automatically
detected and are available in the Logger tab. Then keywords can be associated to
a log.
Would keywords grids be available or not, a ranking level and/or free text can
always be associated to the log.
