Add Start Offset (Virtual Black Leader)
In film, black leader is used to provide a brief interval
between different content. This often is used simply to
provide pacing to the sequence of content being presented,
e.g., between trailers or between the last trailer and the
feature start.
In Digital Cinema, "black" can be either the absence of the
playback of any Content (virtual black
presentation or it can be actual black content supplied as a
CPL included in the DCP. Virtual Black is realized by
creating a Start Offset for the following Content Element.
When creating a Start Offset, provision is made for
establishing a duration of the of the offset. When Black is
actual content, its duration is of a predetermined length and
the Content Type should be "transitional
3.The virtual Black Leader is created by electronically
muting the image output from the Content playback
subsystem (Media Block). The Start Offset (virtual Black
Playlist Element) appears green in the Content list and in
the subsequent Playlist.
4.Transitional Content is usually described as "extremely
short content (1 to 15 seconds) separating unrelated
compositions".
