Using Markers

A marker is an indicator that you add to a selected frame to mark a particular location in a clip, subclip, or sequence. Markers can have icons of different colors and can be associated with user-defined comments. Markers display in the timeline and in the Markers list below the Media player.

To create and modify markers, a MediaCentral UX user’s Interplay Production account must be configured with the necessary permissions. For information on configuring marker permissions, see Understanding Markers and Restrictions.

You can add and edit markers in the MediaCentral UX mobile app for iOS devices in the Markers view if you have the necessary user permissions configured in Interplay Production. An Interplay Production administrator sets these permissions in the Instinct/Assist User Settings view of the Interplay Administrator. For more information, see the Interplay | Engine and Interplay | Archive Engine Administration Guide or the Interplay Production Help.
