In and Out point timecode elds: The exact locations of the In and Out points are displayed
here using the standard timecode format of hh:mm:ss:. You can manually edit these elds by
selecting the eld and entering new values. If a new value is entered, the timeline’s In or Out
point moves to the specied point in the current batch item.
Note: If your source media le has a timecode track, the Start and End timecode values of the
clip appear in the In and Out point timecode elds. Otherwise, the timecode starts at 00:00:00:00.
In and Out point buttons: You can use the Set In Point and Set Out Point buttons (next to the
timecode elds) to set In and Out points. (You can also set In and Out points by dragging; see
the Timeline controls section, below.)
Source/output information: The clip’s frame size and frame rate are shown in the lower-left
corner of the Preview window. The clip’s duration (from the In point to the Out point) is shown
in the lower-right corner. With the Source View button active, the frame size and frame rate
represent the source media le. With the Settings View button active, the frame size and frame
rate represent the setting for this batch item.
Note: To see the total duration of the clip (without In and Out points), select the source le in
the Batch window and open the Inspector window (choose Window > Show Inspector).
