(1) The counter at the upper right displays the 
length of the storyboard, which is the total 
length of your video project. The total length in-
cludes not only the scenes you have taken from 
the scene bin but also all additions such as color 
scenes, black intro scenes, etc. You now know 
how much storage capacity you will need for 
your output media (VHS, DV, etc.).
(2) This field indicates whether the effects and 
audio samples are "Created" or still "Unrende-
red
". Even if all effects except one have been 
calculated, the display will show "Unrendered". 
If  all effects have been created, this button will 
be inactive.
(3) It is often easier to let all effects and audio 
mixing be created overnight or during work 
breaks. You can use the "Create" button to carry 
out pending calculations in order automatically. 
(This is commonly referred to as Batch-Rende-
ring.)
A display tells you which effect of the total 
is currently being created and the light-blue 
progress bar shows the progress of the entire 
creation process. Please note that this is an 
approximation because the calculation times for 
different effects may be different. Some effects 
(e.g. the 3D effects) need more calculation time 
for every frame and this may lead to a certain 
imprecision in the remaining time displayed.
Tip: If you turn off the machine while creation 
of an effect is in progress, the calculation will 
be finished before the machine actually powers 
down.
(4) Clicking on the "Choose Range" button brings 
up a menu in which you can specify a segment 
of the storyboard (using the "IN" and "OUT" but-
tons and the arrow buttons) to be recorded out.
Here you can also use the wave form (section 
3.2
) to help you in deciding on the segment.
(5) The Record to VCR function serves to record 
your video project out to another device. 
If you want to record your material on a VCR, 
then select Analog and then click on the Play 
button next to it. Your video plays and is recor-
ded out to the VCR.
If you want to record your material to DV, select 
the option "DV" and use the DV Controls (6).
Of course you can record video material with the 
aid of suitable capture programs to your PC’s 
hard-drive and edit it there.
If you are editing an HDV project, you can 
now also output your video in HDV. Before 
outputting, the system must however first 
render the effects (even if already rendered in 
DV).
Depending on the system you are using, the 
high resolution of the video and the sheer data 
size can result in a longer rendering period.
(6) If you would like to control your DV device 
(camera, deck, etc.) from your system, click on 
the button "DV Recorder Controls". You can con-
trol your DV device using the control panel now 
displayed. 
When you are ready click the "Record to VCR
button located below the control to start recor-
ding of your footage on DV tape. This process is 
not shown on the monitor.
We recommend putting a few seconds of empty 
scene at the beginning of the storyboard. The 
recorder can then begin recording while the 
empty scene is being played. This is also re-
commended for the end of the storyboard – this 
avoids accidental recording the SMART EDIT 
user interface.
The record-out function works only when all 
effects and audio tracks have been completely 
created (also read item (3): "Create").
(7) In the bottom area of the Finish screen you 
see a window with a selection list in which the 
program DVD Arabesk is listed, if you are using 
a DVD writer. 
(8) After you have created the complete video 
project, you can click on the "Launch program
button in the area to the right in order to run 
DVD-Arabesk.
If you have installed SMART EDIT as an update, 
you probably have version 1 of "DVD-Arabesk" 
installed. Please see the "SMART EDIT – second
