OtterPlay

OtterPlay permits the user to immediately “play” a media file that has just been rendered from AviDub, RenderEvents or RenderPlus using Media Player Classic – Home Cinema (MPC-HC). 

What to Play .  Three options are available for media rendered using RenderEvents or AviDub. 

• Rendered .  Plays the file just rendered.  This is the only option available when using RenderPlus.
• Original.  Plays the original media file.  The media file is trimmed so that only the section corresponding to the rendered event, loop, or region is played.
• Split-screen . Plays a split-screen of the original media on the left and the rendered file on the right.

Shader Presets .  MPC-HC enables the user to apply certain filters or shaders during playback.  OtterPlay provides four options.

• None . No filters are applied.
• Clamp.  Applies a full range (0-255) to TV range (16-235) filter.  In Vegas terms, it is the same as a Computer RGB to Studio RGB  levels change.
• Expand. Applies a TV range (16-235) to full range (0-255) filter.  In Vegas terms, it is the same as a Studio RGB to Computer RGB levels change.
• Custom.  Enables the user to create his own preset. (See Help File for details).

Play Fullscreen .  If checked, fullscreen playback will be enabled.
