5 Using Frame Chase Editing
150
In Avid Instinct or Avid Interplay Assist, press F5 to update the media displayed in the
monitor.
6. Create a sequence in a bin on your Avid editing system.
7. Use standard editing techniques to build a sequence from the in-progress clip.
8. When the clip is completely captured, select Bin > Update from Interplay.
This command ensures that the latest version of the clip is used in your sequence. For
more information, see “Updating Remote Assets in a Bin” in the Help for your Avid
editing system.
9. Save the sequence and prepare it for playback.
Limitations When Working With In-Progress Clips
During the Frame Chase capture process the final length of the clip is unknown until the
capture is complete and the clip information is updated. Because of this, there are some
limitations when you work with in-progress clips.
You can use the following editing functions only when you are working with the available
captured media of an in-progress clip:
• Editing in-progress clips into a sequence — You can edit the captured portions of
in-progress clips into a sequence.
• Subclips — When creating a subclip from an in-progress clip, you must place the IN
and OUT points where media has already been captured and is available.
• Trimming — The right-side trim limit of an in-progress clip is determined by the
currently available media. When you trim an in-progress clip to the end of available
media, the trim functions as if it had reached the end of the clip. As more media is
captured, the trim limit increases. Performing the trim at a later time might allow more
trimming because more media might become available.
The following editing functions are not available when you are working with in-progress
clips:
• Clip duplication — Duplication of an in-progress clip is not allowed because the
duplicated clip loses its relationship with the original in-progress master clip.
• Group clips — You cannot use an in-progress clip in a group clip, because the length of
an in-progress clip is unknown until the capture is complete. Group clips are based on
the length of the contributing clips. This limitation applies to all of the related grouping
operations, such as AutoSync, Group Clips, and MultiGroup.
