In the past, to get footage into an NLE system, it was necessary to capture / digitize the footage usinga video capture card. For most DV and some P2 compatible NLE systems, FS­100 DTE functionality eliminates the capture stage. All that is necessary is the moving of the video files from the FS­100 to a computer.

Recording for Unsupported NLE

If a desired NLE is not supported by Focus Enhancements DTE, it is necessary to use the AV/C control to capture the video footage for editing. For more details refer to “Control Screen” on page 78.
