Split Insert (Splt) Events - Videonics AB-1 Edit Suite User Manual

Split Insert (SPLT) Events

Split Insert Events are modifiers of Insert Events and can be used only if your
record VCR supports splitting of the audio and video inputs during Insert
Editing. Check your VCR manual to determine if your VCR can do this.
If you have not already done so, read the previous section about Insert Events.
There are two choices for Split Inserts: Video Delay and Audio Delay. If you
select Video Delay, an Audio Insert will begin at the location specified in the INS
Event and, after the delay specified in the SPLT Event, both the audio and the
video will be inserted. Typically, the delay is only a few seconds.
Setup and Precautions
A Split Event will not be processed by Edit Suite unless it immediately follows an
Insert Event.
If a Split Insert is to be done, the INS type must be AV.
Before you can do a Split Insert, you must set both the INS and the SPLT
parameters for VCRR (in the CONFIG menu) to 1. In combination, these indicate
to Edit Suite that your record VCR is capable of doing Split Insert edits. If you do
not do this, during a preview or auto record, Edit Suite will beep twice and
display Error Message 24: Split not available when the SPLT event is encountered.
The preview or auto record will be halted at that time. Respond to the error
message by pressing [OK], then make the appropriate changes.
If the split starts or ends a little early or late, you can adjust the SPLT offset
parameter in the Configuration Menu for VCRR. The value is in 1/8 frame
increments, so use a value of -0008 for the SPLT parameter to start your split one
frame earlier, or a value of -0240 (NTSC) or -0200 (PAL) to start your split one
second earlier.
