4. If creating a cel animation, select from the F ORMAT drop-down list the target video
format of the cel animation. This information indicates the desired full screen size and
is used when the cel animation is cropped. Valid settings are: PAL, NTSC, 720p60,
720p60M
, 720p50, 1080i30, 1080i30M, and 1080i25.
5. Enable or disable the I NTERLACED property.
Enable this setting if the images that make up the sequence being ingested contain
fields, rather than frames. Disable this setting if the images that make up the sequence
contain frames.
6. Enable or disable the U SE O RIGINAL S IZE property.
Enable this setting if the width and height of the cel animation will be equal to the width
and height of the images from which it was created. When this setting is disabled, the
cel animation will be cropped to the smallest size possible.
7. Enable or disable the R EVERSE property.
The reverse parameter determines whether the files that make up the sequence should
be played in reverse order: T
RUE or F ALSE (default).
8. If creating a cel animation or a clip, set the Looping properties to ensure that the Start
Frame/Loop and End Frame/Loop values fall on the full frame.
Figure

depends upon which ingest option is selected.

OXI with embedded VAF The OXI with embedded VAF option is intended to be used with
external management systems that require a single file. Embedding the
VAF in the OXI allows the same file to be used on both the Intuition
(Classic), as well as the Vertigo XG. Note that this option provides
reduced looping options and that file sizes should be < 3.6 GB.
J2K+OXI The J2K+OXI option is used with HMP devices. In such a case, the J2K
is the master, while the OXI as the alternate format.
Ingest multiple images The Ingest multiple images option ingests several images and saves
them as individual image files in the Xmedia Server’s Image category.
