You can choose to export your footage in a variety of ways, but for the purposes of this paper we'll demonstrate how to export your footage back out to a P2 card (or to a "virtual card" on a hard disk). The HD P2 Clip export option exports as DVCPRO HD, and is available if you selected a project that is compatible with a DVCPRO HD mode (for example, if you're working in a 1280x1080 or 960x720 timeline). If you're working in a timeline that is incompatible with any of the HD export options, the HD P2 Clip exporter will not be available. If you chose to work in a standard-definition timeline, you'll have the option of using the standard-definition P2 Clip Exporter. So, assuming that you chose an appropriate high-definition timeline at the beginning of your edit, choose "HD P2 Clip Exporter." This dialog box presents several options for exporting your footage, and what metadata settings you'd like to add, as well as whether you'd like to have the footage span across multiple cards if your exported footage is too large to fit on one card. You can also select to export your timeline to a P2 card or a folder on your hard disk, which will be treated as a "virtual P2 Card". If you wish to export to a folder, choose the "Select..." button and the system will bring up a standard "Browse For Folder" dialog box, asking you where you want to store the exported footage. The P2 Exporter will automatically create the P2 CONTENTS folder and associated subfolders in the directory that you specify. Next, you can set the User Clip Name and metadata. These fields will be exported with your footage, and any information you add in these fields will stay permanently attached to your footage. Note: User Clip Name does not change the name of the files on the card (i.e., the file will still be named according to standard P2 naming conventions, such as 0001BG.MXF); instead, specifying a User Clip Name writes your selected name into the metadata of the P2 files. You can specify all the other P2 metadata fields individually, or you can also load a metadata file from a previously-saved XML file on your hard disk or other storage media.

You can choose to export your footage in a variety of ways, but for the purposes of this paper we’ll demonstrate how to
export your footage back out to a P² card (or to a “virtual card” on a hard disk).
The HD P² Clip export option exports as
DVCPRO HD, and is available if you selected a project that is compatible with a DVCPRO HD mode (for example, if you’re
working in a ±²80x±080 or 960x7²0 timeline).
If you’re working in a timeline that is incompatible with any of the HD export
options, the HD P² Clip exporter will not be available.
If you chose to work in a standard-definition timeline, you’ll have the
option of using the standard-definition P² Clip Exporter.
So, assuming that you chose an appropriate high-definition timeline at the beginning of your edit, choose “HD P² Clip
Exporter.”
This dialog box presents several options for exporting your footage, and what metadata settings you’d like to add, as well as
whether you’d like to have the footage span across multiple cards if your exported footage is too large to fit on one card.
You can also select to export your timeline to a P² card or a folder on your hard disk, which will be treated as a “virtual P²
Card”. If you wish to export to a folder, choose the “Select...” button and the system will bring up a standard “Browse For
Folder” dialog box, asking you where you want to store the exported footage.
The P² Exporter will automatically create the
P² CONTENTS folder and associated subfolders in the directory that you specify.
Next, you can set the User Clip Name and metadata.
These fields will be exported with your footage, and any information
you add in these fields will stay permanently attached to your footage.
Note:
User Clip Name does not change the name of
the files on the card (i.e., the file will still be named according to standard P² naming conventions, such as 000±BG.MXF);
instead, specifying a User Clip Name writes your selected name into the metadata of the P² files.
You can specify all the other P² metadata fields individually, or you can also load a metadata file from a previously-saved
XML file on your hard disk or other storage media.
