Setting In and Out Points
Ordinarily, source media is much longer than the actual clips you’ll be using in a program, so it’s important to be able to define a range of media you want to edit into the Timeline. This is done by setting In and Out points, either in the Media Pool in Thumbnail or Filmstrip mode, or in the Viewer in Source Clip or the Source Tape.
Setting In and Out Points Using the Keyboard
When scrubbing through a thumbnail or filmstrip in the Media Pool, you can press the I (In) or O (Out) keys to define a range of media. The edit points appear superimposed over the thumbnail area of the clip, as well as the scroll area of the Viewer if the clip is being mirrored there.
