General

The Inspector is used:

  • to select the Capture Mode and Channel Settings such as Naming Presets, Capture- and Destination-Preset (“Settings” tab)

  • to connect Channels to the Channel Viewer Area (“Connections” tab)

...

Info

Before using the Inspector, it is mandatory that one of the Channel Viewers in Just In Mac Lite NDI is connected to a Channel.

Overview

The “Settings” tab of the Inspector changes depending on the Capture Mode. The following screenshot shows the “Settings” tab of the Inspector when using the Crash Capture Mode. Most of the settings are the same for other Capture Modes.

...

  1. Inspector Tabs: select the appropriate tab here.

    1. Settings: General tab for settings such as File Naming, Timecode Source, Capture- and Destination-Preset.

    2. Connections: within the “Connections” tab, all available Devices/Channels are displayed.

  2. Channel Name: displays the Name of the selected Channel.

  3. Channel Mode Selection: displays the current Channel Mode (Crash or Schedule) of the selected Channel. You can switch the Channel Mode here as well (that is only possible while the Channel is in idle mode).

  4. NDI: Select between available NDI Sources.

  5. Clip:

    1. Naming Preset: select one of the available Naming Presets for the selected Channels.

    2. Name/Variables: depending on the selected Naming Preset the available Variables may differ. In this picture, there's only one Variable called "Name".

    3. Resulting Filename: shows the resulting filename based on the Variables of the selected Naming Preset. The file name used for the recorded video files may be different if the file name already exists on the given recording path.

  6. Timecode:

    1. Timecode: select a Timecode Source (Computer Time, LTC over Audio).

      1. Computer Time: the standard Timecode Code option available on every Mac and reflecting Time of Day information.

      2. LTC over Audio: used with a USB Audio interface to receive an audio-based LTC signal.

    2. Offset: This setting can be used to set a Timecode offset. As soon as you add a value here, the Timecode display changes accordingly.

    3. Stop on Timecode: Set a Timecode where to stop the current ongoing Recording. Please note, that you have to enable the option “Enable Stop on Timecode” separately.

  7. Audio Monitor: you can listen to the Audio Channels of the incoming Signal to preview the audio in addition to the video preview. This is for previewing purposes only and will not replace a hardware device to check the audio quality or A/V synchronisation.

    1. Enabling/Disabling a Single Audio Channel: click on the desired Audio Channel to enable/disable the Audio Preview.

    2. Enabling/Disabling all Audio Channels: hold the “Option” key while clicking on any Audio Channel to enable/disable the Audio Preview for all incoming Audio Channels.

  8. Errors and Warnings: if there are any errors and/or warnings, they will be displayed in this section. You can either use the “Clear all” button to clear Errors/Warnings manually, or this section will be cleared automatically at every recording start.

  9. Capture ID:

    1. Capture Preset: select one of the available Capture Presets. 

    2. Destination Preset: select one of the available Destination Presets.
