  • Batch list, how much is needed for handles or Pre/Post roll?

    Posted by Sebastian Knight on October 25, 2005 at 1:00 am

    I have set up a Batch List, and I keep getting an error after I have imported the Batch capture list, when I go to Batch Capture I keep getting an error about Timecode? I am also wondering when doing a Batch List is ok to begin with 00:00:00:00 timcode as a media begin? As batch capture truly saves a lot time, I sincerely appreciate your time in courtesy in replying to my post.

    You need at least 10 seconds. Change the 00:00:00:00 timecode to 00:00:10:00 and you should be good to go. You probably have a 3 second preroll and then add a second or two for handles and a few seconds are needed for slop.

    Depends on the deck. Some decks can pre-roll in one second. You probably need about a second more than the designated pre-roll. I can usually get it within four seconds.
