(see “Outputs”).
3. Click the button in the upper right corner of the Encoding Settings tab. The
Save As dialog box opens.
4. Navigate to a folder in which to store the file.
5. In the File name field, enter a name for the file.
6. Click Save.
To retrieve a previously saved configuration:
1. From the Tasks menu, select Encode.

Inputs
The Inputs section of the Encode Settings tab allows you to let the encoder know where
to look for the frames (graphics files) to be encoded.
To adjust video settings:
1. From the Tasks menu, select Encode.
2. Select the Encode Settings tab.
3. Below the Video Folder field of the Inputs section, select either Multiple Frames or
Single Frame to define the type of encoding desired.
NOTE: If Multiple Frames is selected, this field is called Video Folder. If
Single Frame is selected, this field is called Frame Path.
Single Frame encoding allows the producer to generate a video clip (DCP package) with
a specified length (number of frames) from a single graphics file in one of the supported
formats.
TIP: If corresponding audio is required, the audio tracks should be trimmed to the
number of samples matching the length of the video.
4. If Single Frame is selected, enter the number of frames to be generated from the
single frame in the Frames field. The Frames field is located beside the Frame Path
field when Single Frame is selected.
