VTR Ingest Overview
To record clips from a VTR, follow these basic steps:
1. Decide if you want to add handles to your clips.
2. Create a segment list or import an EDL.
3. Record the segment list to your Media Server.
Using VTR Ingest
You can use VTR Ingest to create a segment (batch) list of clips from videotape
recordings, which you then record to your Media Server. For instructions on recording

using Scheduler. For more information, see “Using Aurora Ingest - Scheduler” on
page 33 .)
