In the menu that is now visible you customize the following fields:
- Format: This will be set to OCF delivery.
- Number of Handles: This will be the number of extra frames added to both the head and tail of each clip pulled.
- Output Naming: The output naming option will determine how the files are named. For a conform pull you will likely want to use Source FileName, which will leave the original source file named on the delivered media.
- Filter Lists File: This option allows you to filter content out of your EDL that you do not want delivered
- Merge Segments: When you use the same camera file multiple times in your edit, 'Merge Segments' lets you deliver a single, seamless shot instead of several. Just remember, segments won't merge if there's a gap of more than 10 minutes between them.
