6.Set timecode markers.

It may be necessary to set markers to indicate the location of a particular frame or sequence of frames in the video clip. The names of the markers depends on the template used and the template type. Generally, there is an In (Start) maker for the beginning and an Out (Stop) for the end of the marker selection.

•Clicking on a Set button places the marker and displays the timecode location of the marker.

•Clicking on the Marker button resets the markers to 00:00:00:00.

Continue recording until finished.

Updating Metadata - One Set Per Video Clip

During recording, if different data is entered in the metadata fields and the Update button clicked, the new data replaces the previous entry for the video clip.

Repeat the procedure to insert the same or different metadata for each video clip recorded.

Saving Metadata

There is no distinct Save step.

Clicking on the Update or Mark buttons writes the metadata to the MR-HD100 database and into a specific record assigned to the video clip. Changing the metadata in the template changes in real time, the video clip’s record in the database.
