Dupe Detection Options
• Handle Size: This preference adds frames to the beginning and end of the clip regions
that are used for comparison, to determine whether or not to display duplicate frames
indicators. This can be used to take into account the extra frames that must be used
for physically cutting and cementing pieces of negative that are necessary for film
match-back, to prevent you from accidentally including frames that can’t really be used.
By default, this is set to 0.
In the following example, the sequence contains ten duplicate frames. Below, the
handle size setting is set to zero frames, so no additional frames are shown.
These ten frames are used
twice, so they are shown
as duplicate frames.
