The Inspector is used to select your Capture Settings (such as Naming Conventions, Metadata Sets, Capture- and Destination Presets). This chapter explains all Inspector options and also shows how the Inspector changes depending on the currently selected Capture Mode.


Warning

Before you are able to use the Inspector it is mandatory that one of the Channel Views in the just:in User Interface is connected to a Channel which is configured and running in just:in Engine. Refer to the chapter just:in v3.5 Administrator Manual if you have not yet configured the Channel(s) yet.

General Inspector Overview

Info

For detailed information on how to start a Recording please refer to the chapter Capture Modes.

The Inspector changes depending on the Capture Mode you are using. This shows the Inspector when in Crash Capture Mode. Many of the settings are the same for the other Capture Modes.

  1. Channel Name or Connection Info (click to toggle).
  2. Clip:
    • Naming Convention: select one of the Presets which have been configured in just:in Engine.
    • Variables: depending on the selected Naming Preset the available Variables may differ. In this figure there's only one Variable called "Name".
    • Resulting Filename: shows the resulting filename based on the Variables of the selected Naming Preset. The filename used for the recorded Video may be different if the file already exists in the filesystem.
  3. Timecode:
    • Timecode: select a Timecode source (Computer Time, VTR, LTC…)
    • Offset: define a Timecode offset.
    • Stop on Timecode: define a Timecode where to stop the Recording.
  4. Metadata:
    • Metadata Set: you can select a Metadata set, for example QuickTime. This provides several predefined Metadata fields for you to fill.
    • Writes at: select whether the Metadata will be written at the Start or at the End of a Recording.
  5. Audio Monitor: you can listen to the Audio stream of the incoming Channel Signal to preview the Audio part in addition to the Video preview. This is for previewing only and will not replace a hardware device to check the audio quality or AV synchronisation. When using a Mac Pro released after 2013 you must update to macOS 10.13.3 to enable this function.
    • Enabling/Disabling a Single Audio Channel: click on the desired Audio Channel to enable/disable the Audio Preview.
    • Enabling/Disabling all Audio Channels: hold the option key while clicking on any Audio Channel to enable/disable the Audio Preview for all Channels.
  6. Errors: if there are any errors they will be displayed here and can then be examined and/or removed.
  7. Capture IDs: add or remove Capture IDs by using the add and delete buttons.
    • Capture Preset: select one of the Presets which have been configured in just:in Engine. 
    • Destination Preset: select one of the Presets which have been configured in just:in Engine. 
    • Reference Movie (depending on Destination Preset): select the type of Reference Movie.


Info

A Channel may have multiple Capture IDs and can therefore record in multiple formats. Keep in mind that this can put high load on the system(s) running just:in Engine. Thorough testing upfront is a must!
