Configuring Graphics Options (Aurora Edit Only)
Allow Mixed Format Timeline Allows different video formats to be mixed in real-time within
the same Timeline. This setting can only be modified by
administrators — it allows or disallows users from selecting a
preference when creating a new Timeline.
Although Aurora Edit allows for real-time mixing and
matching of various formats within the Timeline, all clips that
differ from the video format of the Timeline must be
transcoded when the sequence is sent to a media or playout
server. Therefore, some editors choose to disallow mixed
formats for individual timelines based on their needs, which
can be controlled in either the New Sequence or Sequence
Properties windows.
When disabled, all clips that don't match the Timeline settings
are transcoded when they are added to the Timeline. When
enabled, all clips that do not match the Timeline format will
have a blue bar at the top of the clip to indicate that transcoding
will take place when the sequence is sent.
Map Hot Keys For Non-QWERTY
Keyboards Check this option keep the color-coded hot key functions in
place regardless of the keyboard input language.
If unchecked, the hot key functions follow the letter placement
on non-QWERTY keyboards; this setting is off by default.
Show MediaFrame Storyboard Allows the MediaFrame Storyboard to be toggled on and off
from the Timeline.
