CLIPSTER Edit Tool User Guide

9.2.2 Open…

The Open… menu option opens the standard dialog window of the

operating system for the selection of a file. In this dialog window select

the project file that you want to open in the Edit Tool.

You may select the file from the list box or enter its name in the entry

field File name. Confirm your selection with the button OPEN. The se-

lected project file will then be loaded into the Edit Tool. During the load-

ing, the bin and thus the timeline will be checked for inconsistencies,

i.e. it is tested whether the first and the last frame of each clip present

in the bin is actually available on the storage.

When you start a new project file, the autosave function is

disabled because of a missing file name for the project. The

autosave function automatically saves your project file after a

certain period of time for backup purposes (see “CLIPSTER

Configurations” user guide for more details). To enable the

autosave function you have to save the project file first and

thus assign a name to it.

The VTR task mode of the I/O Tool that is optionally available

uses project files different from the ones usually saved via the

DVS software. Further information about this can be found in

the “CLIPSTER I/O Tool” user guide.

File extensions: *.cp Project file

*.cp.autosave Automatically saved intermedi-

ate situation

*.backup.cp Backup file of old project file

Missing frames will be substituted during a play-out with the

Edit Tool by a standard image (see section “Consistencies of

Clips” on page 6-63). Then it is recommended to perform a

more accurate testing of the bin with the menu option Check

Bin on the Bin menu (see section “Check Bin” on page 9-19).

If the first and/or last frame of a clip is missing, you will be in-

formed about this the same way as described in section “Check

Bin” on page 9-19.
