3.6.3 How to Autoedit Record with the External Device

In the autoedit record mode you can control a play-out by the VENICE

server while at the same time recording it frame accurately with the ex-

ternal device. The following describes what to do to perform an auto-

edit record.

Setting up the Playout Mode

To perform an autoedit record in the playout mode you first have to

configure what and how to play out with the VENICE server:

y Select the video and audio content that should be played out with

the Source items as described in section “Selecting Content for

Play-out” on page 3-2.

y If necessary, specify the essences for the play-out with the Output

select items (see section “Selecting Essences for Play-out” on

page 3-6).

y If necessary, configure the output format to your requirements with

the Output settings items (see section “Configuring the Output

Settings” on page 3-7).

y If not already activated, switch to the player controls by selecting

the tab VENICE (see section “Controlling the Devices (Player /

Recorder)” on page 3-14).

As soon as the player controls are activated and video content is select-

ed for a play-out, the video overlay will show you the selected content.

y Set an in- and outpoint for the content to be played out (see section

“Player Controls (VENICE)” on page 3-14).

After this you have successfully set up the VENICE server for a play-out

and you now have to configure the external device for the record.

For this procedure the external device has to be connected cor-

rectly to the VENICE server (video, audio, timecode, and

RS-422). Additionally, the device has to be set to accept re-

mote control.

Via project files or presets the software can be preconfigured

for certain tasks. Then it may not be necessary to perform all

the configurations described below (see section “Preconfigur-

ing the VENICE Client Software” on page 2-13).
