TC Depend and Input Style In AXIF and Final Cut Pro

In Apple XML Interchange Format (AXIF) templates the settings for the TC Depend and Input Style fields are grayed out because their settings are fixed and can not be changed.

By default, most but not all of the metatdata fields are set as not timecode dependent.

All the metadata fields have their Input Style set as Mixed Input which permits the use of both predefined and variable, user entered, values.

Final Cut Pro supports these settings because they are template defaults.

Creating a Custom Template allows the user to set TC Depend and Input Style defaults to other values which Final Cut Pro will then support. For more information, see Creating A Custom Template on page 66.
