y Select the in- or outpoint handlers in the scrub bars of the clips with

the mouse and move them to the desired position for each clip.

However, if the duration of the clips is long, you can adjust the handlers

only roughly. Then to set them more accurately you may use either the

keyboard controls of the DVS software (see section “Keyboard Short-

cuts” on page A-7) or the controls below the two scrub bars as de-

scribed in the following.

y If not already set accordingly, select the appropriate out- or inpoint

via the OUT and IN button of the trim controls: If you want to adjust

the outpoint of the clip to the left of the cutting point, the OUT but-

ton has to be activated, if you want to set the inpoint of the clip to

its right, the IN button has to be selected. If both buttons are acti-

vated, the out- and inpoint will be adjusted simultaneously.

y Next use the controls below the OUT and IN button to position

them frame accurately.

The respective handler(s) will move accordingly. As well the counter(s)

will in- or decrease for the selected clip(s). Your alterations are effective

immediately in the timeline and you can now, for example, define a

transition between the clips or perform a play-out.

To switch the control area back to the edit mode use the appropriate

button of the control area ( ).

As long as the insert mode of the Edit Tool is active, the subse-

quent clips and embedded operators will automatically adjust

their positions on the timeline respectively. When the Edit Tool

is set to the overwrite mode, gaps may occur in the timeline.

More information on this can be found in section “The In-

sert/Overwrite Mode of the Timeline” on page 6-34.

You cannot change in- and outpoints beyond the limits of the

original material on the storage.
