Control Video
The Control Video plug-in exposes control over a video codec channel. Add this plug-in to give the Client Application operator an editor, such as the Media Search in Viz Trio or Viz Pilot, in which to search Viz One for video clips.
The plug-in works in combination with the Video Clip plug-in. This allows you to merge Key Frames with the object for Transition Logic scenes.
Note: This plug-in is located in: Built Ins -> Container plug-ins -> Control
