Opening and Editing an Existing Sequence in the Sequence Pane
129
Opening and Editing an Existing Sequence in the
Sequence Pane
MediaCentral UX lets you open and edit sequences that you created in MediaCentral UX, Avid
editing applications, Interplay Assist, and Avid Instinct, and Interplay MAM Desktop.
You are limited in the types of sequences you can play and edit. Following are some rules for
editing and playback:
• If the sequence contains only cuts (for example, a shotlist), it opens in the Media pane for
playback and you can edit it in the Sequence pane. You can select the camera angle and
audio mapping for group clips in a cuts-only sequence. For more information, see
“Working
with Group Clips” on page 233
.
• If the sequence contains effects that the playback service supports (such as video and audio
dissolves) but was created in an application other than MediaCentral UX, it opens in the
Media pane for playback. The sequence also opens in the Sequence pane, but you cannot
edit it. The video track is colored dark red to indicate that it is uneditable.
• If the sequence contains unrendered effects the player does not support, the player displays
an error message. The sequence opens in the Sequence pane as uneditable.
• If all effects are rendered, the sequence opens in the Media pane for playback. The sequence
opens in the Sequence pane as uneditable.
• You cannot create subclips from an uneditable sequence.
• You can add markers to an uneditable sequence, edit marker text, and save the markers with
the sequence, with the proper permissions. See
“Understanding Markers and Restrictions”
on page 279
.
• If you open a sequence from an Interplay Production database but you do not have a
read/write role for the folder that holds the sequence, the sequence opens as read-only. You
can play the sequence but you cannot edit or save it.
• If you open a sequence from an Interplay MAM database for which you do not have write
permission or that represents an external sequence, the sequence opens as read-only. You can
play the sequence but you cannot edit or save it.
