Enhancements

  • Playlist Selector

We´ve improved and added new ways of saving clips into playlists. First thing is that if you want save/record a clip straight to the playlist you have selected you can use S key for saving it and R to record. If you press ctrl + S / ctrl + R (CMD for Mac), these will open a window (Playlist selector) in order to select a playlist from the current workspace, create a new one, or create one with a name that you use on a previous workspace:

If you choose to save/record the clip/s into a new playlist, you will then be able to select on which folder, repeating the same situation: selecting an existing folder or creating a new one:

  • Timeline Zoom on Annotations and Sync Manager

In order to add more precision in the workflow we have added the zoom function on the different timelines of Metrica Play

  1. On Sync Manager, to be able to sync videos and XML with more precision.
  2. On Annotations Module, to be able to adjust IN and OUT times of the differents visualizations and pauses with more precision.

You can also use ctrl +/- to use this function on the different timeline. Ctrl + 0 to visualize the whole timeline.

Zoom on Annotations module:

Also, you can find Zoom buttons on creation mode, with the same usability:

  • "Convert video..." function

This process have the objective of solving some issues you might be having playing the video or visualizing its data (not synched, for example). It can also improve the playback performance if your computer reaches the minimum requirements only. This process will:

  • Change Variable Frame Rate to Constant Frame Rate, if it´s the case.
  • Modify the number of frames in header, if doesn't match with time length.
  • Downgrade bitrate, if it´s too high.
  • Remuxing, to make sure all timestamps are monotonically increasing.

 You can find this function within the drop-down of every video:

  • Deinterlace videos within Metrica Play

Metrica Play can now detect when a video you´re linking to a Video Project is interlaced. In that case, Play will ask you to deinterlace, in order to improve the visual aspect and to correct visualizations desynchronizaton, if any:
