The "Videotape Copy" module allows you to ingest video files stored in Video Servers into video tapes, permitting you also to insert both blacks and colour bars at the start/end of the tape. This application is specially useful for example, to create a backup tape containing specific video files.
After configuring the source (Video Server) and destination (VTR) (VideoTapeCopy Parameters) in the 'Parameters' module, you just have to follow the instructions described below:
