| Frequently Asked Questions |
| Q. Can I sync to an external timecode? |
A. Currently only manual timecode sync is possible, we are looking to implement receiving external timecode via WiFi in a future release. If you have a preferred manufacturer of external timecode devices you would like implemented please contact us.
|
| Q. Does eLogger work with just Media Composer? |
A. Importing markers directly to source masterclips is not supported by Media Composer. You need Interplay & our Desktop Logger app to import markers directly to source masterclips. Importing markers directly to the sequence is supported by Media Composer. You can take the text file output from eLogger & import this on to the sequence. This is done via the "import makers" menu within the marker window. Amend the sequence timecode to match the timecode of the masterclips. Once imported you can copy and paste the markers from the sequence to a clip loaded in the source window. Importing via Interplay directly to masterclips is quicker & efficient when working with lots of source clips compared to importing via the sequence.
|
| Q. I don't have Interplay what can I do? |
A. Send us your Avid Bin and eLogger file (Avid MediaFiles not required) and we will sync the Avid Bin and send it back to you. This Avid Bin can be opened on any Media Composer or import the text file output from eLogger onto a sequence. See above question.
|
| Q. If I have Interplay at my site does every Media Composer need to be Interplay connected? |
A. No, you can have only one Media Composer connected to Interplay. This Media Composer can sync markers to thesource masterclips in the bin via Interplay. Once the bin is saved it can then be pushed to Media Composers which are not Interplay connected.
|
| Q. The timecode was set incorrectly during logging, what can I do? |
Q. Use our free XML fix web tool. Upload your log from eLogger & enter the new timecode you would like the first marker to start at. Then a new log file with adjusted timecode for all markers will be available to download.
|
