The Omneon ClipTool Pro is a Windows-based software application that provides an easy-to-use graphical user interface to monitor and control playout and record functionality for an Omneon Spectrum media server.
|
With a VTR-like control panel, ClipTool Pro provides powerful control for ingest, quality assurance and playout operations. Written directly to Omneon APIs, ClipTool Pro provides agile, precise manual record and layout control.
Intuitive Operations
ClipTool Pro provides basic and advanced functionality ranging from displaying a listing of clips to "crash record" capability. ClipTool Pro was designed to make it easy for broadcasters to manage manual interaction with their Spectrum media server and includes the following capabilities:
Sub Clipping
Creating new partial clips and throwing away unwanted tops and tails has never been easier. A copy clip function creates sub clips from manually selected in and out points. Variable length handles can be adjusted to allow for in and out point trimming in the future. The original clip can then be deleted, freeing up storage on the media server.
Merge Timeline
This feature allows users to take several small clips located in a timeline, and merge them into a single, larer clip. Users can effectively use ClipTool Pro to preform a cuts-only edit on these pieces of material.
Jog/Shuttle
The jog and shuttle capabilities enable quick movement through a clip, making it easier to find specific frames for marking in and out points. Simple, on-screen buttons allow users to move forwards and backwards through material to help them quickly identify precise segments for playout.
Crash Record
The instant crash record feature streamlines the manual ingest process and allows for a fast response when needed to record incoming material. Automatic naming of files in this mode allows for multiple open-ended records in rapid succession.
Loop Record
Operators can use ClipTool Pro to designate a section of disk storage for loop recording. Upon command, the system would start recording at the beginning of the designated storage section, continue to the end, and then loop back to the beginning, overwriting what had originally been recorded in that section.
Multiple Playback Modes
Bounce mode and standard loop mode allow product shots, bumpers and graphics elements to fill timeslots as needed.
Storage Availability Gauge
When manually ingesting material, particularly with open-ended edits, it is critical to know how much record capacity remains available on the media server. The storage availability gauge is always displayed prominently in the user interface to keep users informed of the amount of record time remaining.
