Setting up BVW [insert edit] Emulation

This procedure sets up a panel to emulate a Betacam. Refer to the manual for
your controller to set up Super-Edits or BVEs.

NOTE: This procedure requires access to two control ports. Close a
panel to free a control port for use with the BVW [insert edit] panel.
For example, if Panel C is the BVW [insert edit] panel, close Panel
A, B, or D. Reopen a panel with

Window | Open Panel

.

1. Click within a BVW [insert edit] panel to select the panel. Refer to

“Selecting a Controller” on page 73 if you have not already selected BVW
[insert edit] as the controller for this panel.

NOTE: If you do not select BVW [insert edit] for the panel, insert edit
operations are not properly executed. The channel can be used as a
source deck, or be acceptable for remote control systems, such as the
Ash-Vale slow-motion controller, that do not use EditOn commands.

2. Choose

Controller | Configure

to open Profile Options (see Figure 48 on page

77).

3. Select two unused video codecs: one for

Playback Video

, and one for

Record

Video

. For example, use

JPEG #3

for

Playback Video

, and

JPEG #4

for

Record Video

. Use

Controller | Configure

with the other panels to assure the

codecs are not in use.

4. Select two pairs of audio codecs. For example, select

Chan #9

and

Chan #11

for the

Playback Audio

and

Chan #10

and

Chan #12

for the

Record Audio

.

Audio codec pair selection must follow these rules:

- The playback/record audio codec pair must be sequentially numbered. For

example,

Chan #1

and

Chan #2

or

Chan #14

and

Chan #15

.

- The playback/record pair must be with the same channel group. Channels

are grouped as sets of four:

Chan #1

through

#4

,

Chan #5

through

#8

,

Chan

#9

through

#12

, and

Chan #13

through

16

.

- The playback is assigned to the first selected codec in the pair, record is

assigned to the second selected codec in the pair. For example, playback
assigned to

Chan #14

and record assigned to

Chan #15

.
