Review captured video with our suite of in-built playback tools. Set multiple in/out points for a video to quickly get an idea of how it will feel in an edit. Our Playback Controls allow you to scrub to any point in time and navigate frame by frame when required. Playback will loop between different in/out points for takes with multiple actions. The Playback Browser makes finding and sharing specific video clips a breeze, you can even assign each clip a rating to keep track of preferred takes.
Clean Video Output is supported for both live video and playback. Simply connect an external monitor to your iPad with a USB-C to HDMI/DisplayPort Adaptor or via AirPlay. You’ll then be able to control Video Assist from your iPad while providing a clean video feed to another monitor. When using USB Video Output in tandem with a USB Capture Card you will need to use a USB Hub.
Automatic Record Trigger is supported for all ARRI Alexa, RED, Sony Venice, Sony Burano and Blackmagic Cameras via custom built computer vision models. Record Trigger requires status info on your camera output, it will not work on a clean video feed. If we don’t support Record Trigger for a camera you own please get in touch, we’d love to bring that functionality to Video Assist.
All Videos and Frame Grabs are stored on your iPad and can be accessed from the ‘Files’ App, you can choose if they record ‘On My iPad’, to ‘iCloud Drive’ or on an ‘External Drive’. Create Projects for better organisation when using Video Assist on different jobs or for breaking things down episode to episode on longer projects.
