STUDIO
LIQUID
Timeline settings as of Version 10
As of Studio Version 10, you can select advanced
settings (for example, for HDV).
Selecting a Timeline format
When you start a new movie (in Avid Liquid:
Sequence), select a Timeline Format, such as.
NTSC or HDV 1080/50i, either because you
recorded everything to HDV 1080i or because
you want to output everything in this format.
Select File > New > Sequence > Preset and
then the appropriate format (usually the
format in which your clips were
recorded).
When mixing material that has different frame
rates (fps), aspect ratios (4:3/16:9) and image
sequence (progressive/interlaced), you will have
to compromise. For example, scaling between 4:3
and 16:9 means stretching or squeezing the
image, black bars on the screen or parts of the
image being cut off.
The great advantage of Avid Liquid is that you
can combine material from all sources into one
Sequence and output it in any format and to any
medium.
Avid Liquid automatically adapts the frame rate
and resolution.
17 Timeline Settings
Avid Liquid can handle clips in all formats on the Timeline. Consider the output (tape, DVD, stream)
and select a specific video format for the Timeline.
