OMFI Export
Media
The Media area of the dialog box contains settings that affect the form and format of the media data that
is to be included in the composition:
Export with Media Files
This option is by default activated. You can use the drop-down menu to specify the file type to be
exported (video, audio, audio and video (default setting)). During an actual export, the affected files are
converted to an OMF file.
Consolidate media
This option is activated by default and ensures that the clips in a Sequence are transferred to the OMF for-
mat precisely
in terms of their length. With a Handle Length of 0 (default setting), the resulting OMF
clips cannot be trimmed beyond the mark-in or mark-out point. If a little trim leeway should remain,
enter a specific handle length; if full access to the original Media Files is required, deactivate the function.
This can, however, result in very extensive OMF files.
Video Format
This setting is important when you export video files. Select the desired compression rate. The approxi-
mate storage required is displayed next to the box.
Audio Format
This area defines the audio file format and sample rate within the OMF format. The Audio Format menu
offers the following options:
 WAV - generates WAV files (default setting)
 AIFF - generates AIFF files
The Sample Rate menu offers the following options:
 44.1 kHz (default setting)
 48 kHz.
