Automatic setting of edit points in split editing Split editing requires a total of eight edit points: four video edit points (player IN and OUT and recorder IN and OUT) and four audio edit points (player audio IN and OUT and recorder audio IN and OUT). However, as soon as you set five points, the system automatically calculates and sets the remaining three points. Specifically, once you have set three of the four video edit points and two audio edit points, the remaining three edit points are set automatically, regardless of whether these points are for the recorder or player.
In the figure below, the edit points shown within boxes are already set. The other edit points (recorder audio OUT point, and player audio IN and video OUT points) are set automatically.
Note that any edit point can be deleted or corrected later regardless of whether it was set manually or automatically.
