Editing Files
The Archive Editor allows selecting a portion of the MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 video file for
immediate playback, and permits saving this clip as a new file. The editor is not frame-
accurate; rather, it indicates how many seconds from the start of the file that the edited
section begins, and how many seconds from the start of the file until it ends.
T To edit an MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 video file:
1. After selecting an MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 video file, put the viewer in pause mode by
starting and then pausing the clip within the Edit Clip window.
2. Next, select
Start Transmit and move the slider to the point in the video where the clip
will start.
3. Select
End Transmit and move the slider to where the clip will end.
Note: The Start and End times are displayed, as well as the duration of the clip. (The Clip
Editor displays an error if the times are entered incorrectly, such as the start time after the
end time or vice versa).
4. To play the new clip, press the
Play button. Keep creating clips until the one that’s played
is satisfactory (this button is grayed out while paused).
5. To save the clip, use
Save As and enter a file name (this button is grayed out while
paused).
6. Press
Start to save the clip to disk as a new MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 file.
Moving Files via FTP
StreamPlayer Plus has a built-in file transfer capability that allows an MPEG-1 or MPEG-2
saved file to be instantly transferred to a FTP server. Selecting FTP from the Archive Viewer
brings up the FTP dialog box as shown.
