Stop deck after capture

Select this option if you want to stop the deck when the capture operation is complete.

Pause deck after capture

Select this option if you want to pause the deck when the capture operation is complete.

Preroll Method

Select one of four methods from the pop-up menu. For more information, see Selecting the Preroll Method.

Force unique clip names

Select this option if you want the Avid system to automatically assign a clip name based on the bin's name and to make sure this name, or another name you select, is not already used by any other object in the bin.

Activate bin window after capture

Select this option if you want the Avid system to change the focus from the Capture Tool window to a bin window after capturing or logging is complete. This allows you to immediately start working in the bin.

Space bar stops capture

Select this option if you want to use the space bar to create clip names during the capturing process. When you press the space bar during a capture operation, the system stops capturing, creates a clip from the capture material, and places the clip in the active bin.

Capture across timecode breaks

When this option is selected, the system captures sections of discontinuous timecode on a tape as separate clips.

Deselect this option to make the system stop capturing and report an error when it encounters a timecode break.

Pause deck while logging

When this option is selected, the deck pauses after you set an OUTápoint while you log clips; this allows you time to type the name of the clip. See Logging Directly to a Bin. Deselect this option to allow the camera or deck to continue playing after you set an OUTápoint.
