Adding Markers to Clips While Logging
As you log, you can set markers within clips to note significant parts for future
reference. Markers can be used for several purposes.
 Reference: Each marker can contain a name and associated note to help you identify
the content or other noteworthy information.
 Navigation: You can move the playhead from marker to marker in the Viewer and
the Timeline to quickly go to specific parts of a clip.
 Creation of subclips: You can also use markers to automatically create subclips, or
parts of a larger clip, in the Browser. For example, when you log a lengthy clip for
capture, you can arrange the markers to break the clip into smaller subclips for use
while you edit. For more information on creating subclips, see Volume II, Chapter 2,
“Creating Subclips.”

new marker.
 Set Marker In: Click this to set a marker In point, or enter a timecode number in this
timecode field.

Setting Markers in a Logged Clip
