Trimming a clip in Inspector
When you trim an asset,
you change the length of the viewable asset, restricting it to the material
between the Trim In and Trim Out points. The material outside the trim marks is
not deleted. It remains on disk but is not viewable. To use the Trim Asset
operation, you must be logged on with a user account to which the Trim Rights
role is assigned. If the role is not assigned, the Trim Asset operation is not
available.
- Load the asset into the Inspector.

Navigate to the desired starting point using the scrub bar,
and click the Mark In

Trim Asset is enabled when the asset has a mark-in or mark-out point. It is disabled if the asset does not have a mark-in or mark-out point.
Note: If a clip is a part of Dyno record train sequence, Mark In and Mark Out points should not be set beyond the limit of the guard band, as configured for the record train sequence. -
