EVS IPClipLogger Version 6.15 - April 2013 User Manual - Manual (Page 9)

1. Introduction
1.1. Product Description
IPClipLogger is a simple stand-alone application designed for an easy and quick logging of
media, which means adding reference points to a specific frame in a video media. Users
have the possibility to create log entries directly during the event, or later on by moving
through the recorded media.
The IPClipLogger window is an integrated window from which it is possible to perform all
the actions related to several logging workflows. This includes searching tools to find the
correct media from the list of clips, a Player pane to watch the media and make clips from
it, a Logging pane to add logs to clips. Metadata, such as keywords, metadata profiles, log
color or interest level, can be associated to clips or logs from this window as well. All the
clips representing a story, and their associated logs and metadata, can be automatically
sent to a working bin. The logged clips could then be sent to targets for post-production.
Shortcuts are available for most of the operations to speed up the process and avoid using
the mouse.
In some workflows, takes are recorded from several camera angles at the same time. All
the operations performed from the IPClipLogger on such a media are done for all the
camera angles the users want to work with. This includes, among others, logging, clipping
and sub-clipping.
The IPClipLogger offers the possibility to log different media at the same time from
several tabs from which it is easy to switch.
Floating licenses are supported, so a large number of stations can be equipped with the
IPClipLogger application.
Note
The IPClipLogger application works with floating licenses imported in the
database.
