- In the Timeout (seconds) text box, type the amount of time you want to set for the
timeout.
5. In the Status Window area, do the following:
a. In the text box, type the number of seconds you want the status window to update.
b. (Option) Select “Bring up window if error occurs” if you want errors to display.
6. (Option) In a workgroup environment, if you want mixed-resolution items highlighted in the
bin, select “Highlight mixed-resolution items” in the Send to Playback area.
If a sequence contains DV 25 and DV 50 media within the same sequence, that sequence is
highlighted in red in the bin. Interplay Transfer cannot send sequences that contain both
DV 25 and DV 50 media to playback. This feature allows you to easily identify those
sequences.
7. In the Output Audio Mix area, select the type of audio output you want.
t Direct channel output — Send to Playback transfers audio tracks without performing a
mixdown.
t Stereo output — Send to Playback mixes all of the tracks to a stereo pair, using pan
controls to split the tracks. The sequence is copied before the mixdown is edited in, and
the suffix .transfer is added to the name (same as in the direct output option).
t Multiple Mixes — Send to Playback mixes selected tracks to specified output channels,
using the mapping specified in the Multiple Mix Editor dialog box. The operation
copies the sequence before editing in the mixdown, and it adds the suffix .transfer to the
name (same as in the direct output option). For information on mapping audio tracks to
output channels, see “Mapping Audio Tracks to Output Channels” on page 1236.
8. In the Transcode area, if you want to allow the transcoding of clips before performing a send
to playback operation, do the following:
t Select “Transcode before sending to playback.”
t From the Minimum resolution warning threshold menu, select the lowest resolution
allowed for the playback device before a warning message is displayed.
For example, if you select MPEG30, a warning message will display during a send to
playback operation, if a clip in the sequence has a resolution below MPEG30. Therefore, no
warning message displays when clip resolutions are MPEG30 and above.
n
Dynamic Relink must be enabled to use the Transcode before sending to playback option.
For more information about using these settings, see “Transcoding of Mixed Resolution
Clips During a Send to Playback” on page 1242.
