CRASH RECORDING MEDIA WITH PIPELINE IMPORT DIALOG

You can crash record live feeds or video playing out from a playback device such as a VTR into the

Pipeline via SDI. To crash record media, follow these steps:

1. Select File > Import > Pipeline to display the Pipeline dialog.

2. Select the Pipeline (make sure status is Idle) and encoder. Select 2 or 4 channel audio.

3. Click OK to connect to the selected Pipeline.

4. Queue up your video and click the Capture button.

The Pipeline Plugin rolls the tape if VTR-controlled, and begins capturing the streaming media in the

same manner as that performed when you select a clip and click Capture. Click the Capture button

again to stop capturing. The clip is listed in the Clip List with a Captured icon.

You can crash record one or more clips, then click Import to save the files and display them in the bin.

Note

When capturing or crash recording media from Pipeline Quad, you can perform

confidence monitoring of the decoded SDI input to qualify your video. See Confidence

Monitoring (page 45).
