You can batch capture the clip in additional resolutions; there is no limitation to the number of
media files associated with a clip.
Multiple Clips, Multiple Resolutions, and the Affinity Model
You can transcode the media associated with a clip to create media in a different resolution,
usually to create a low-resolution version of the clip. You can choose to create a new master clip
or associate the new media with the original master clip. For more information, see “Using the
Transcode Command” on page 455.
If your Avid editing application associates the new media with the original clip, the bin displays
multiple resolutions for the master clip. For more information, see “Single Clip, Multiple
Resolutions” on page 1253.
If your Avid editing application creates a new master clip (with the extension .new), it associates
the new clip with the new transcoded media. In this case, your Avid editing application copies
the source ID to the new clip and new media.
n
When the Avid Interplay Transcode transcodes a clip, it associates the new resolution with the
original clip. It does not create a new clip.
The following illustration shows a clip captured in 1:1 and transcoded to 15:1s. Your Avid
editing application associates each clip with both resolutions because they share a source ID and
a timecode span.
