Editing an asset

Asset Viewer

If the asset contains a MP4 proxy media file and it is accessible, the proxy
file will be shown in the preview pane in the

Asset Preview

tab. When

the proxy is available, you can do the following:

• To view the proxy media file, click the

Play

icon. Click in the MP4 proxy

media preview pane to start or stop the playback.

• To jump to a specific timecode, type a timecode relative to the clip start

timecode in the timecode field or click in the slider.

• To move frame by frame through the proxy media file, click the arrow

buttons on either side of the timecode field.

• To set the In Point marker, scroll to the first frame of the video that

should be seen on screen and click

Mark In

to transfer the timecode to

the

In Point

field. To set the Out Point marker, scroll to the last frame of

the video that should be displayed on screen and click

Mark Out

to

transfer the timecode to the

Out Point

field.

• To skip to the existing markers, click

Cue To In

to jump to the In Point

marker and click

Cue To Out

to jump to the Out Point marker.

Timebase

Click the frame rate for the asset.

Start of Media

Displays the timecode for the fist frame of the media. If no timecode was
provided when the asset was registered such as when registering BXF or
iTX Asset XML files, then the field defaults to 00:00:00;00.

The Start of Media (SOM) is the first frame of the media and the clip start
timecode is the timecode label associated with that first frame. The clip
start timecode may not necessarily start at 00:00:00;00 since many clips
may have an offset start timecode; for example, when a show is split into
multiple one-hour segments, the second segment may have a clip start
timecode of 01:00:00;00.

Note: Incorrect drop-frame timecodes are automatically rounded up to
the next valid drop-frame timecode value; for example, 00:01:00;00
would be rounded up to 00:01:00;02.

End of Media

Displays the timecode for the last frame of the media. If no timecode was
provided when the asset was registered such as when registering BXF or
iTX Asset XML files, then the field defaults to 00:00:00;00.

The End of Media (EOM) is the last frame of video in the media relative to
the clip start timecode.

Note: Incorrect drop-frame timecodes are automatically rounded up to
the next valid drop-frame timecode value; for example, 00:01:00;00
would be rounded up to 00:01:00;02.
