Using Cintel

Playback Controls

The following playback controls are available in DaVinci Resolve and on Blackmagic Cintel itself.
Load
Pressing 'load' will tension the film loaded onto your
scanner's feeding and taking spools as described in the
section 'lacing film.'
Pressing load once your film is properly tensioned will
unload the film by returning the compliance arms to their
slack position.
Rewind
Press rewind to wind your film back onto the feeding
spool. Pressing this button once will rapidly rewind your
film until it reaches the threshold of a fully loaded 75mm
spool, at which point it will stop. Press rewind again to
slowly wind the the rest of your film all the way onto the
feeding spool and unload your scanner.
If you are using a 50mm spool, your scanner will still
stop at the 75mm threshold. Pressing rewind a second
time will slowly rewind until the point a 75mm spool
should have been fully rewound. If your scanner detects
that there is still film loaded at this point, it will resume
rewinding quickly until reaching the 50mm threshold,
where it will stop again. Press 'rewind' a third time to
completely rewind a 50mm spool.
Due to the rarity of 100mm spools, Cintel is not
programmed to stop prior to hitting the 100mm threshold.
If you are using a 100mm spool, take care with your
method of loading film onto the taking spool. It is
important to use the provided notch, rather than tape to
ensure that film unloads cleanly.
Cintel has built in controls for loading, unloading, and previewing scans.
Step back
Rewinds the film one frame.
Stop
Stops playback, fast forward and rewind commands.
Play
Plays the film at either Cintel's default 24 fps, or a frame
rate selected in the Cintel palette in DaVinci Resolve.
Step forward
Advances the film one frame.
Fast forward
Rapidly advances the film onto the taking spool. This acts
in the same way as rewind with regards to 50, 75 and
100mm spools.
