Step 3—(Optional) Create Optimized Media

If your stereo media is excessively large, you can create optimized media.

1 Select the stereo clips you’ve created.

2 Right-click one of the selected clips, and choose Generate Optimized Media from the contextual menu. A window appears showing you how long it will take to finish creating optimized media.


Monitoring Stereoscopic 3D in the Edit Page

You can now view a Stereoscopic 3D signal directly from the Edit page. Previously, the Edit page was restricted to left eye for video output monitoring. The Edit Page Viewer itself still shows only a single eye, but it now displays Stereoscopic 3D video from the Decklink or Ultrastudio video

outputs. The 3D palette in the Color page has the stereoscopic controls to select the stereo viewing options (Side by Side, Anaglyph, Line by Line, etc.), as well as adjusting the convergence and other stereoscopic parameters.


Converting Clips Between Stereo and Mono

You also have the option of converting clips between mono and stereo 3D using a pair of commands in the Media Pool.

Converting Stereo Clips Back to Mono

If necessary, you can split one or more stereo clips into mono clips using a single command.


To convert stereo clips into mono clips:

1 Select one or more stereo clips in the Media Pool.

2 Right-click one of the selected clips and choose Split Stereo 3D Clips from the contextual menu.
