Hard Committing from the Desktop

You can hard commit sequences and segments from the Desktop. When you commit a sequence or segment, the soft properties of the sequence such as cuts, transitions, head and tail frames, and timewarp data are removed. The visual effects of the transitions and timewarps remain but you cannot edit them.

To hard commit a segment:

  1. Make sure the clip is at a frame within the segment to be committed.
  2. From the contextual menu, select Hard Commit > Segment.

    The segment is committed.

To hard commit a sequence:

  1. Select a sequence on a Desktop reel.
  2. From the contextual menu, select Hard Commit > Sequence.

    The sequence is committed.

Note: You can hard commit a sequence via Burn, by selecting Hard Commit > Burn, from the contextual menu.
