Transports can be toggled between Wild, Player and Recorder
Currently it is not possible to set the telecine to be a Recorder!!
In its most simple form, an edit would involve a telecine and one vtr. Let us assume that the tape in the VTR on port 1 has been striped with bars from timecode 00 58 00 00 to just past the 1 hour point. What we want to do is to start an assemble edit on the first frame of film at 1 hour on the tape.
First, set up the telecine. This needs to be a Player and needs to have an in point on the first frame of film. If you press the TK transport button, the Transport panel will pop up on the Platinum screen. There is a button labeled Wild. Click and change to Player. This has told the telecine to take part in the edit as a player (or source). Now set the telecine in point. Play the telecine and park it on the first frame of picture. Now press the button marked IN. This will take the current film position and set it as the in point.
Next, set up the recorder. Press the VTR1 button. In the Vtr panel, click on the grey Wild twice. This will step from Wild to Player and then to Recorder. Now set the vtr in point to one hour. On the numeric keypad type
1 00 00 00
then press the IN button. Finally, we will need to tell the vtr to do an assemble edit. In the VTR transport panel on the Platinum screen, click on the Insert button to change to Assemble.
Now press the PERFORM button, and the telecine and vtr will preroll, wait a second or so, then roll up and drop into record. The edit will continue until you press the stop button (or the tape runs out!).
