End Point Set DV deck recording-end delay time after AVI playback is finished in SyncRec mode. For example, if "-7" is set, ending of video deck recording is 7 frames earlier than ending of AVI file playback. Steps Some kinds of DV system may overwrite necessary data because it starts to record a few frames earlier than the pause point in SyncRec. When the gap between pause point and starting point of real recording occurs, compensation value must be set. Setting the value to zero annuls compensation.

Playback Buffer

APPENDIX

When "Automatic" is selected, the buffer is automatically set to the optimized value for the current system memory. Some system may hang-up at the start. In such case, remove main board temporary from your PC, restart it and open "Def_NT. reg" file in the application folder after starting Windows (right-click and select "Combine," or double-click it). Turn off your PC, install main board again and restart the PC. For Premiere Pro, do not select "Automatic" setting. You need to restart your PC after changing the buffer size. Be sure to save your data before making any changes to the buffer size. In general, capturing Reference AVIs in Premiere Pro is not recommended, because Movie Capture captures to a temporary file first, then copies the AVI to the location you specify. The copied AVI still references the temporary file, which will cause problems when Premiere Pro eventually overwrites the temporary file with a new capture. If you have the need to capture Reference AVIs in Premiere Pro, make sure you don't manually capture anything in Movie Capture while the option is selected. Use Batch Capture instead.

CHAPTER 1

Buffer Size Set playback buffer size here. When buffer setting exceeds the physical memory capacity of your system environment, the message 'Memory may be insufficient. Do you want to continue?' appears in the dialog box. Click [Cancel]. You can increase the buffer size, starting from 128MB for one second (default setting), 192MB for 2 seconds, and increase one second buffer for every additional 64MB.

SUMMARY

YUV and RGB Conversions

Expand RGB range to 150% When converting from YUV to RGB, it may not be possible to convert some colors when the ratio of luminance to chrominance is 1:1, resulting in inaccurate color reproduction. When this is checked, the system expands the conversion axis up to 150%, reducing the range of colors that cannot be converted.

59

Editing in Premiere Pro With the Canopus real-time plug-ins for Premiere Pro, you can edit Canopus DV/AVI clips and still images and titles that Premiere Pro supports in real-time using the Canopus transitions and filters. To utilize the real-time power of your system, you need to use special Canopus transitions and filters. Standard Premiere Pro transitions and filters as well as third-party transitions and filters will need to be rendered.

To Add Transitions

CHAPTER 4 CHAPTER 5 APPENDIX

It is important to note that only the Basic transitions will work in real-time. Other transitions installed optionally that appear on the list will not play back in real time. You should use the Premiere Pro versions of any non-Basic transitions, if possible. The Canopus Chromakey, Canopus Luminancekey, and Canopus Picture in Picture transitions allow you to use those filters as transitions. When used as transitions, the underlying video will appear on the preview.

Key Frame Control

The Key Frame control allows the user to control the 3D PinP over the duration of the clip. There are 4 main areas to the Key Frame controls. - [1] Timeline and position controls. - [2] Interpolation Controls. Describes how the video behaves between key frames. - [3] Timeline Indicated settings applied to each key frame. - [4] Timeline indicator The position of this indicator shows where the key frame will be positioned.

Select the frame on the timeline that you wish to define the properties of, this is a key frame. Be sure to think about when you would like the transition to start. Adjust the properties of the key frame for that particular point by using the Control options described below. This is the first key frame. Property changes will be reflected in 3 (Key Frame details). Key Frames are most effective in groups (1-X key frames available), the Key Frame sequence needs an in and out point. We have now defined the “In” Key Frame in steps 1 and 2 . Define the out key frame by repeating steps 1 and 2 . The next step is to define how the effect progresses between these or any two key frames. This is controlled at point 2 of the Key Frame Control - Interpolation. Interpolation describes the mathematical calculation used to move between key frames. There are three choices:

Constant:

Only changes at key frames. - Indicated by no line between key frames.

Linear:

Changes between key frames occur on a linear path. - Indicated by darkened area line between key frames.

Spline:

SUMMARY

Changes according to a poly function depending on the number of key frames (i.e. 2 Frames = x2 Function) When applying interpolation, settings will only take effect on the row selected, in between 2 key frames.

Click [OK] to apply the Canopus Title Motion to Premiere Pro titles even if you simply use the Cut motions.

Having the filter applied will reduce the CPU load for displaying Premiere Pro titles. It also makes it easy to precisely control in and out effects. You can also apply multiple title motion filters to one title. For example, you can combine a Slide Left with a Slide Up to have a diagonal up-left slide in. Use the title motion filter with In and Out times set to half the length of the clip and Motions set to the same Slide effect for real-time scrolling titles. You can also apply the Canopus Title Motion Filter to video clips to give them exciting in and out effects.

73

Playback Buffer and Non-Real-Time Effects About the Playback Buffer The buffer counter can be enabled in the "Playback Settings" dialog (see Playback settings at the previous section). The playback buffer allows the system to play back in real-time through short areas that have more effects than could normally be handled. As the duration of the "overloaded" area increases, the playback buffer gets depleted. When this counter runs out, the system is no longer able to process in real-time and frames get dropped (or playback stops). The playback buffer gets replenished as the system goes through areas that have enough CPU power to process. You can also start playback with the playback buffer pre-filled by holding down the [Shift] key and clicking the Play button on the target side of the "Monitor" window.

The default size of the playback buffer is 1 second. However, if you have 192MB or more, you can increase the size of the playback buffer in the Detailed Settings of the EDIUS DVX Properties.

Non-Real-Time Effects Some non-real-time effects can be played back in real-time, depending on the situation. Non-real-time effects playback uses the playback buffer described above to do the processing. Thus, there must be a sufficient amount of time for the effect to render on-thefly, enough time between effects for the playback buffer to "recharge," and effects cannot be too long in duration.

74

Timeline Output SUMMARY

You can output your timeline to a DV device directly from Premiere Pro using Premiere Pro's "Export to Tape" function. For output to analog devices, you can simply play the timeline or use Premiere Pro's "Print to Video" function.

Canopus DV Capture

Canopus DV Capture This is a DV capture application for DV capture via general IEEE1394 boards and for simultaneous capture with the EDIUS DVX unit. You can connect at most 3 cameras for capturing images. With this application, you can capture 3 images simultaneously from two cameras connected to the IEEE1394 boards and one camera connected to the EDIUS DVX unit. The application also has a function for dividing input automatically into separate files, which works by detecting breaks in DV timecode sequences. Three streams can only be achieved with a EDIUS DVX unit, and 2 IEEE1394 boards (OHCI cards) present (please refer to the below table).

Limitations The following limitations apply due to limitations in Windows specifications. - When multiple DV devices are connected to a general IEEE1394 board (OHCI card), the devices may not be recognized and may not operate normally. In some cases, these problems can be avoided if you power on the DV devices, connect them to the computer, and then power the computer on. Capture operation has been found to be unstable when 3 or more DV devices are connected to an IEEE1394 board at the same time. - When 2 or more DV devices connected to an IEEE1394 board and selected onscreen, and one of the devices is powered off or disconnected, the other DV devices may be affected. Especially, when the first device recognized by Windows is powered off or disconnected, devices recognized later may be affected, resulting in dropped frames or
