Editing using offline proxy media
Aurora Edit and Aurora Edit LD can preview and edit with proxy media that is
associated with offline archived hi-resolution video.
This feature allows editors to use archived offline assets within a Timeline as if they
were present in the online news database. The offline assets become available in the
bin by doing a MediaFrame search. Finding offline assets can be accomplished by
setting up filters in the Aurora search tool or by searching for a known archived asset.
Once the search is done, the asset search results are placed in the Aurora Edit or Aurora
Edit LD bin and become available as editable material on the Timeline.
The offline assets found in the database search will be indicated by an orange dot in
the search result bin view. An offline clip can be then be loaded into the clip player,
and saved to the Timeline. Any number of archived clips can be used and can also be
mixed with online clips on the Timeline. The video can be edited in the same manner
as online video using the Timeline tools.
Once a strory is complete, the editor can restore the sequence (they must have restore
rights) with the Restore Sequence Assets button, synchronize the video (replace
the lo-res video with hi-res) with the Synchronized Restored Assets button, and
the sequence is ready to playout.
Once the story has been sent to playout, the editor has the option to unlink the online
assets with the Unlink Online Assets button and return the restored offline clips on
the Timeline to proxy references.This allows them to delete the hi-res video restored
media and preserve the Timeline for preview or future restores.
NOTE: Both the Restore and Unlink functions are undoable items. In other words,
you can use the Timeline Undo button to undo the restore or unlink action and
also use the Redo button to redo the actions.
