- Grade-Based Flags / System-Based Flags
- Use to define if the flags of a grade are propagated to the system-level flags system.
The two choices are:
- System-Based Flags: When loading a grade that contains flags, these flags are automatically added to the system-level flag file (located in the home of the application). This means that all projects have access to the flags. This is the default state when creating new user settings.
- Grade-based Flags: When loading a grade that contains flags, these flags are only available when using this grade or when creating a new version of this grade.
- Second Screen / Second Screen Proxies
- Second Screen is disabled by default. Enables the broadcast to a web browser on another device so that clients attending a grading session can follow what the colorist is doing. For the client to use it, point a browser to http://<workstation ip address>:8888. The user name and password are both lustre. Enable Private Browsing in Mobile Safari, on IOS devices, to make sure the web page is properly refreshed. The client must be on the same network as the Lustre web server. The web server is managed by Lustre, so when you start or exit Lustre, the web server starts / stops. It displays currently-loaded grade and cut metadata (text only), see updated storyboard thumbnails and view shot metadata. Lustre Second Screen can also display the metadata of a single shot, regardless of whether it is the current shot or not. Notes information can also be displayed. It is also possible to display the current shot in Shot View by clicking the Follow Current Shot link. This displays the current shot in Shot View. Clicking a thumbnail displays shot information, including notes. Clicking Back To Storyboard, brings you back to the main page.
