The general keys exposed by just:in multi are listed in the following:
System Variable Keys (General) | Description |
|---|---|
%Just_In_Capture_Split | Will be replaced by one of the following values: “0” - no split occurred, “1” - a split occurred, “2” - last clip of the split sequence. |
%Just_In_Previous_Split_Reference_Clip | Will be replaced by the filename of the clip previous to the one currently recording. Empty string if no split occurred. |
%Just_In_Capture_Duration | Will be replaced by the length of the recording in “standard time”. E.g. “00:30:00” - 30 minutes. |
%Just_In_Capture_Inpoint | Will be replaced by the Inpoint timecode. This is the timecode of the first frame. E.g. "10:00:00:00’. |
%Just_In_Capture_Outpoint | Will be replaced by the Outpoint timecode. This is the timecode of the last frame. E.g. "11:00:00:00". |
%Just_In_Clipname | Will be replaced by the Clipname with extension. E.g. "sample.mov". |
%Just_In_Full_Clipname | Will be replaced by the full clipname. E.g. “/path/to/ the/movie.mov”. |
%Just_In_Custom_Date | Will be replaced by a representation of the keys’ value. E.g “%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S” will be replaced by 01/01/2011 15:32:53. |
Every field of the naming convention is available for metadata processing - so just use the same key as in the naming convention. There’s one special case though:
Naming Convention | Description |
|---|---|
%Name (or any custom variable) | Will be replaced by the contents of the “Name” field (or any custom fields) of the “Clip” section. In Schedule mode this field will be the name as the one in the Apple Calendar event. |
