    You use the Print to Video command to print a sequence or clip to videotape. Device control is not required.


DISCUSSION

    To print a sequence to video:
      1. Select a sequence in the Browser.
      2. Open the File menu and choose Print to Video.
      3. Specify the Print to Video options.
      4. Start recording.

    Print to Video options include:
    • Leader Options: add color bars, 1 kiloHertz (kHz) tone, black, slate, and a 10-second countdown before the beginning of the sequence or clip. The tone has the same duration as the color bars.
    • Slate Source: can be the sequence or clip name, a file on disk, or custom text
    • Media: lets you print the entire sequence or clip, or only the marked portion. You can also loop the sequence or clip and insert black at the end of each loop.
    • Trailer: adds black of a specified duration at the end of the printed sequence or clip after the last loop
    • Duration Calculator: helps you determine the total duration of the media you've selected to print plus all options you've specified

    Note : You can also edit directly to videotape, using similar options.
