Capturing Basics
Note EDIUS Neo does not support Electronic Arts IFF (.iff) files.
Note Grass Valley Imaginate project files can be imported.
Capturing Basics
Before beginning the capture process, make sure the source playback
device is turned on, is functioning properly and is connected to the EDIUS
Neo computer.
With the playback device connected to the EDIUS Neo computer, you can
capture analog, DV or HDV sources and encode them using the award-
winning Canopus HQ codec. DVCPRO HD and DVCPRO 50 formats may
also be captured.
Source Connections
Playback sources may be connected to any of the following:
• Generic OHCI IEEE 1394 port
• DV terminal of Grass Valley editing systems
If your playback device supports HDV, set the device to HDV mode fol-
lowing the instructions of your device.
Capture Settings
When performing a batch capture, verify the “Automatically divide files”
settings. By default, EDIUS Neo is configured to automatically divide cap-
tured files into new clips on date, timecode, audio sampling rate and aspect
ratio changes. This is usually not desirable when batch capturing; therefore
these options should be disabled.
These settings are accessed by selecting Settings>Application Settings from
the Preview window and selecting Capture. The dialog shown in
Figure 120 appears.
