Destination Presets contain settings about the recording locations of the Recordings, Metadata, SCC sidecar, or XMP Marker files. Before you can start Recordings within Just Control, you need to create one or multiple Destination Presets. Once defined, you can quickly access them in Just Control. This accelerates the Recording process and helps to keep things organized.

To perform any changes, you have to unlock the Just Control Configuration panel first.

Overview

Open the Just Control Configuration panel, select a Device, and switch to the “Destination Presets” tab.

  1. Destination Preset List: shows all available “Destination Presets” for the selected Device. Use the buttons below to add and remove “Destination Presets”.

  2. Destination Preset Configuration Options: create and set new container types here, by using the Add and Delete buttons below.

    • Container:

      • Main Container: Sets the main recording path for a recording.

      • Metadata: Sets the path for writing the metadata sidecar file.

      • SCC Captions: Set the path for writing the SCC sidecar file.

      • MCC Captions: Set the path for writing the MCC sidecar file.

    • Path: Select the Container Path here.

    • Type:

      • Main Path: Main recording location.

      • Fallback: Fallback recording location (just:in mac switches to the fallback path automatically, in case the main recording location gets too slow or does not respond at all). Please beware that this Container Type is only available for the Main Container.

Note that you can set multiple Main Container paths to record to multiple locations (Destinations) at the same time.

Add a Destination Preset

In the “Device & Channel” List select a Device. Click on the “Destination Presets” tab. Underneath the “Destination Preset List” press the Plus button to add a “Destination Preset”.

A new window appears, where you can add the “Destination Preset Name”. Press the “Create” button to go back to the Destination Preset options. Configure the Destination Preset according to your needs. It will be saved automatically after all attributes have been defined. You may change the settings of a Destination Preset at any time.
