How do I launch an OpenCubeHD/SD application?Click on the OpenCubeHD/SD button on the menu bar and the application will start.
If the application is already launched, a log message will appear giving you the choice of either keeping the application running or of starting a new OpenCubeHD/SD application. ^^ summary ^^
Why won't the OpenCubeHD/SD application start?- If the log message: "devicemgr null return" appears then check to see if OpenCubeHD/SD
was installed under the right licence. Otherwise contact technical support.
- Also check disk space available on the OpenCubeHD/SD server system disk. ^^ summary ^^
How is Audio Signal managed in the OpenCubeHD/SD server?OpenCubeHD/SD plays back Audio signals embedded into the SDI or HDSDI stream by default. AES/EBU XLR output is available as an Option. In this case, Audio signal is played back through both SDI and AES/EBU output. ^^ summary ^^
How do I activate the RGB 4.4.4 mode?Open OpenCubeHD/SD application "parameters" Windows > I/O > Standard, then simply select the RGB color space. All Input/Output will be in RGB 4.4.4 mode and both HDSDI interfaces will be used for each subsequent action. ^^ summary ^^
How do I perform a Cut in a media file?Select the video or audio media file with the OpenCubeHD/SD application Browser then drag'n drop it into the Scope Window.
Using the search bar, move to your In Point then click on the "IN" button. Apply the same process with the "OUT" button to choose the Out Point. Once the In/Out points have been chosen, select the media file from the Scope Window using the mouse pointer and drop it in the Timeline Window. Repeat this process for adding an end to end Cut.
Once the cut is finished, "Activate" the current Timeline and you will be able to play back the Cut Edited Timeline. ^^ summary ^^
What do I do if I get the message "Error in VTR driving"?Check out connections in master mode. The RS422 cable must be plugged in to the OpenCube HD/SD/SD server's RS232 port 1 using the RS422/RS232 adaptor. ^^ summary ^^
What do I do if I get the message "Error during VTR export process"?If the log message: "Frame dropped during play-back" appears, check out your disk configuration as well as your VTR configuration ("Servo Lock" and "Channel condition" leads (?) should be displayed in green). If you use the "Genlock" function on your VTR, check configuration and reference signal activation using Parameters Menu>I/O. ^^ summary ^^
What do I do if I get the message "Error during VTR ingest"? - Check out the Ingest directory point to /DATA and verify that there is enough space to store the digital media you're working with.
- Check out synchronisation connections. If you use the "Genlock" function, check configuration and reference signal activation using Parameters Menu>I/O. ^^ summary ^^
What do I do if a field is missing in a media file after the ingest process?During the Ingest process using progressive scan, the frame is (de?) interlaced and the first field repeated. To keep the frame's data intact (whole), you have to configure the Ingest process with the "Segmented Frame" option using Parameters Menu>I/O ^^ summary ^^
What if the IN OUT point does not work in the Scope Window?Press "Enter" on keyboard after entering the IN/OUT value. ^^ summary ^^
What should I do if I get the message "Error: standards are not homogeneous" during filtered editing?First select XDCam DV in the drop-down box in Wizard. Then select five media files: one should be a 25 Mbit/s DV IEC file and the four others should be stereo WAV or AES files. Then hit the "Next" button and the MXF wrapping will be launched. ^^ summary ^^
How can I save my parameters?All you have to do is to use "Save Workspace" in Menu. This operation allows you to save all the OpenCubeHD/SD application parameters and User preferences. ^^ summary ^^
How do I save my TimeCode?OpenCubeHD/SD server enables you to save your TimeCode during the Ingest process and to play it back during the Editing process. During Ingest process, the source TimeCode is automatically stored. During the Editing process, you can then select the Track and "Apply" the TimeCode using right click button. The source Timecode will be played back on both LTC and VITC output. ^^ summary ^^
