Canopus Reference DV

Enable this option to create a Canopus Reference AVI. Canopus Reference AVI files
are DV Type 2 AVIs and can surpass the AVI filesize limits by creating separate
reference data files. The AVI files points to these data files and accesses the AVI as
if it was one large AVI file. Reference AVI files cannot be moved or renamed without
using special tools such as the Canopus Ref. AVI Manager. This option is only
available when the encoder is set to Canopus DV.

DVCPro25 uses a different method.

Select the action to take when Closed Caption (Line21) data is present in the source.
Not all sources support Closed Caption data.

Notes

The DV specification states that DV data is always Lower/Bottom Field first. However,
ProCoder allows you to change the output setting in order to work with decoders that
do not follow the specification.
