Figure 80. VDCP Protocol Options
1. VTR 1 – 4: Use this options to select the disk servers local video ports.
2. Cue mode: “by jog command”, “default cue”
3. When a clip is cued (“Go To Timecode”, “Go To MarkIn/MarkOut”)
most disk servers are (re)initializing their local video port. While
initializing the port the signal is switched to black for a short time. After
cuing is completed it is usually not possible to play the clip to a
timecode position less than the cueing timecode. The Cue Mode
options “by jog command” prevents the disk server from
(re)initializing the local video port.
Note Not all disk servers are supporting this option.
4. Clip names: “long names”, “short names”
5. To select and activate clips with more than 8 character length, the
option “long names” can be used. This option requires that the disk
server also supports long clip names. The default setting “short names”
should be supported by every disk server.
6. Default settings are underlined.
