Video Tracks

Audio Tracks

Audio Tracks

refers to the number of tracks in the Timeline for mixing, not the

number of output tracks.

8. Check the

Graphics Track

checkbox if you will be adding graphics to this sequence

and the

Video Effects Track

9. Check

Allow Mixed Formats

if you want to mix and match video formats in real

time within the same Timeline.

This checkbox is active only when

Allow Mixed Format Timeline

is enabled in

Tools | Options | Timeline

. In addition, all clips that differ from the video format

of the Timeline need to be transcoded when the completed sequence is sent to
a destination.

10. ANC data is preserved on all feeds sent via a Smartbin (the option to preserve ANC

data from a K2 or Summit storage device must be selected in the Audio/Video
Configuration under Data Track Setup). Checking the

Preserve ANC Data

checkbox

allows the edited sequence to preserve ANC data on send. The video can be
previewed on external monitors to view captioning data via the SDI output of an
AJA Breakout Box (BOB) . Note that this feature is not available with the older
SD AJA Breakout Box only with the LHi version.

More detailed information on preserving ANC data is provided in this manual
and the Aurora Edit and Aurora Edit LD Installation Manual.

11. Click

OK
