Using IEEE 1394 Record mode

Initially the monitor pane displays black. Use the following step to cue the IEEE
1394 device.

5. While monitoring video and timecode in the monitor pane, you can control the DV

device remotely (play, rewind, fast-forward and stop) in one of the following ways:

• Use the iVDR front panel controls (transport control buttons, Shuttle/Jog Knob).

• Use the record channel on-screen transport controls in AppCenter (VGA mode).

• Use AppCenter keyboard shortcuts (see

“Using Keyboard shortcuts” on

page 79

).

• Select

Goto

in the Recorder pane, then use the Goto Timecode dialog box.

NOTE: To monitor audio, use the audio monitoring features on the DV device.

6. After positioning the cue point on the DV device, use one of the following methods

to start recording a clip:

New Clip

- See

“To record a clip using New Clip” on page 142

.

Crash Record

- See

“To record a clip using crash record” on page 143

.

Fixed Length

- See

“To record a clip using fixed length” on page 143

.

NOTE: When you start the recording, the iVDR pre-rolls the 1394 device several
seconds, then starts play back prior to capturing media. This ensures the video
frame cued in the channel monitor is recorded. Pre-roll does not occur if record is
started while the 1394 device is already playing.
