01:00:29;29. If the In point is changed to 01:00:10;00 the Out point will change to 01:00:39;29. Likewise, if
the out point changed from 01:00:39;29 to 01:00:49;29 the In point would change to 01:00:20;00.

Pipeline Control captures clips by controlling the VTR via the Pipeline to encode the clip and stream each

and saves each file in the destination folder.
When the capture process completes, Pipeline Control disconnects from the Pipeline.
