Administrating Clips

3.2 The Bin Mode

To the right of the tool area the control area of the I/O Tool is located.

The control area can be used for two different functions (modes of the

control area): You can either review/play out a clip coming from the bin

(bin clip) or you can control an externally connected player via RS-422.

After starting the DVS software and switching to the I/O Tool the con-

trol area is by default in the RS-422 mode where you can control an ex-

ternal player (see chapter “Controlling an External Player” on

page 4-1).

The other mode of the control area is the bin mode. This mode is usu-

ally used to review a clip already present on the storage and available

in the contents area of the bin. To switch the control area to the bin

mode of the I/O Tool you can either press the button BIN in the lower

left corner of the control area or you can drag and drop a clip from the

contents area of the bin to the control area (see section “How to Play

Out a Single Clip” on page 6-12). Then the control area switches to the

bin mode automatically.

3.2.1 The Video Overlay

At the top of the control area you can see the video overlay where, af-

ter dragging a clip to the control area, a still image of the clip to be re-

viewed is displayed. With the video overlay you can then view the

contents of the bin clip in real time. A mouse click on the video overlay
