The difference between the two is that with Drop-Frame format the frame address is

playing or about to play and its current timecode. While a clip is playing, Play Rate parameter

Using the Port parameter select the port the Video Disk system is connected to. This will then
be displayed in the Configure Channel attacher, then select the channel number on the server
and press the {Set Channel} button. Any stored clips will then be displayed in the File List.

displayed below the File List table, here the clip can also be re-named or deleted. The user can
choose to play a whole clip or just a part of it by setting a play out start or/and play out end
position(s). The Current Clip box will display the name of the current clip being played or about
to be played.
