20 Chapter 1 Working with HDV
Video Preview Area
 Available space and time: Final Cut Pro displays the amount of available space on all
currently assigned scratch disks.
 Device status: Shows the readiness of camcorders and decks connected to your
computer and being controlled by Final Cut Pro. If you see “VTR OK,” your equipment
is connected and working properly.
 Timecode Duration field: Displays the duration, in timecode, between the current
tape In and Out points. If you enter a duration in this field, the Out point is adjusted.
 Current Timecode field: Displays the timecode number of the current frame of your
source tape. You can enter a timecode number in this field to navigate to that
timecode point on your tape.
∏ Tip: When using the Log and Capture window with a native HDV Easy Setup, you can
drag timecode values between the Log and Capture timecode fields by holding down
the Option key while you drag a timecode value from one field to another. Dragging
timecode from other windows is not supported.
Transport Controls
If you have device control, use these to control your camcorder or deck. These controls
are similar to controls in the Viewer and Canvas, except that they control playback of a
videotape instead of a media file.
