to the Timeline will inherit the default graphic duration, which is configured in Aurora
Edit's

Tools | Options | Graphics

tab in the main menu bar.

VizRT also allows the editor to access VizRT from within Aurora Edit or Aurora Edit
LD to create a new graphic.

Graphics on the Timeline can be trimmed or extended. This will not change the path
the animation will take. It will extend or trim the middle of the graphic.

NOTE: As an additional precaution, editors will not be able to trim the graphic
beyond its minimum duration, which is determined by the keyframes within the
animation.

Refer to the VizRT documentation included with your VizRT system for complete
details for using the VizRT plug-in and other VizRT features.

Configuring VizRT in Aurora Edit

Before using The VizRT graphics system, a number of settings must be configured
for proper operation. These configuration settings are normally made during installation.
You can check these settings from your Aurora Edit or Aurora Edit LD application
to make sure they have been set properly.

During installation, the following items must be configured for proper VizRT
integration and operation:

Each client must have the correct VizRT plug-in installed on their system in order
to propertly access and present graphics within Aurora Edit and Aurora Edit LD.

NOTE: Refer to the Aurora Edit and Aurora Edit LD Release Notes for the
correct plug-in version to use with this release.

You must have set up the VizRT NLE Configuration Tool during installation of
the plug-in and other required components or the configuration tool will open the
first time you try to do a retrieval. If this occurs, refer to the Aurora Edit and Edit
LD Installation Manual
for a detailed overview of all setups required.

A single AURORA-GFX site license must reside in the location of the configured
License Server dialog box within the

Tools | Option | General

tab in the top menu

bar of the Aurora Edit application.

When the Aurora Edit application launches, it checks the license server location
for the presence of the AURORA-GFX license.

NOTE: In the unlikely event that multiple editors launch at the exact same time
and try to access the license, one of the clients will be denied access.

In the

Tools | Option | Graphics

tab, the VizRT selection must be active in the

pulldown and the

Enable MOS workflow

checkbox must be checked. This allows

Aurora Edit to link to the script and copy graphics to the Timeline.

The

Graphic MOS ID

field will fill in with the standard MOS ID from VizRT.
