Paths - Sony MVS-8000X User Manual

Changes in the effect duration caused by
inserting a keyframe
• When the effect is stopped on a keyframe, inserting a
keyframe increases the effect duration by the duration of
the inserted keyframe.
• When the effect is stopped between two keyframes,
inserting a keyframe does not change the effect duration.
Note
In constant duration mode (see page 299), the duration of
the current keyframe is reduced to zero, and the new
keyframe is inserted with the previous duration of the
current keyframe. Thus the effect duration does not
change.

Changes in the effect duration caused by
deleting a keyframe
• When the effect is stopped on a keyframe, a delete
operation deletes the keyframe, and reduces the effect
duration by the duration of the deleted keyframe.
• When the effect is stopped between two keyframes, a
delete operation deletes the preceding keyframe, and
reduces the effect duration by the duration of the deleted
keyframe.
Note
In constant duration mode (see page 299), the duration of
the keyframe before the deleted keyframe is increased by
the duration of the deleted keyframe. Thus the effect
duration does not change.

Delay Setting
You can set the delay from the time of executing an
operation to run the effect, and the effect actually starting
(that is, the delay until the first keyframe). You can make
this setting in the utility/shotbox control block.
Changing the delay does not alter the effect duration.

Paths

The term "path" refers to the specification of how
interpolation is carried out from one keyframe to the next.
Images are interpolated from an edit point to the next one
according to the path setting.
For details, see "Path Settings" (page 319).
