General Principles
Protect IN & Protect OUT points of a clip cannot be replaced by new ones.
Short IN & Short OUT points of a clip can be replaced by new ones.
Short OUT point is excluded. The clip freezes on previous field when playing back (with
post-roll mode disabled).
(Short) IN & OUT are always on even fields. This is automatic.
The guardband beyond the Short OUT point is created with the material available when
the operator saves the clip by pressing the selected F_ key. Therefore, this guardband can
sometimes be shorter than the value defined in the Setup menu.
4.1.2. Clip Numbering Hierarchy
Introduction
Multicam can store up to 900 (multiplied by the number of cameras) clips and 100 playlists
in its libraries (including 10 playlists on page 10 reserved for protocols). 900 clips with up
to 6 camera angles per clip result in 5400 clips on a server. This number is displayed in the
upper right window of the VGA Setup screen (SHIFT+F2 from the PC keyboard).
If you are working with XNet SDTI network, keep in mind that the total number of clips on
the entire network is limited to 6,000 or 16,000, depending on the network settings. This
number is displayed in the same area on the VGA Setup window.
