STUDIO
LIQUID
Scenes and Album
Each time a new scene is created, it’s stored in the
Album.
In Avid Liquid, a scene is called a “clip”.
Player and Camcorder Controller
The current video is displayed in the player.
The Diskometer
You can capture either in full DV quality or in
preview quality.
In Avid Liquid, this is possible only in EZ Capture
(MJPEG).
Clips, Racks and Project Browser
Each new clip is placed in the currently active
Rack. The current Rack is highlighted in yellow
on the bottom left in the Project Browser.
Video inlay and control functions
The video image played appears in the “Inlay”
(Viewer). The camcorder or player is controlled
by means of the usual buttons. The timecode field
is located above the viewer.
In Avid Liquid, the functions of the Studio Disko-
meter are distributed over three menus:
Player/Source
i.Link DV should appear here. If it doesn’t, click
the small Player icon and continue as described
on page 52.
Select media format
Native Transfer (AVI) should appear here (Excep-
tion: You’re playing an analog signal).
Display capacity/location
The hard disk used for recording is specified here
(position mouse pointer on top or click a num-
ber) along with its available capacity.
2 Comparison of Recording Instruments
This set of pages describes the most important areas of the Logging Tool as compared to the capture area
in Studio.
