Alpha channel—One of the four channels (or components) of information that is contained in each pixel of an image. This channel specifies the ? transparency of each pixel, allowing portions of the foreground image to reveal or block out the background image when two images are composited. The grayscale image represented by the alpha channel is often referred to as the matte. See also Mask, Matte, Opacity, and Transparency.

This is done by a mathematical process that subsamples pixels. Archive—To back up your project files or move closed projects to an external medium. Artifacts—The undesired, visible effects in an image due to technical limitations.

Cache—A media file that stores information and is generated when you process an effect, transition, composite, or container clip created in your sequence. During playback, Avid|DS uses this cache file instead of the source media. See also Interactive cache. Capture—To digitally transfer audio or video material from an external device, such as a videotape recorder, to the local disk storage on your workstation. Capture resolution—The size and quality of the media file created when you capture source material. See also Resolution and Working resolution.

Compression—A technique used to reduce the amount of space necessary to store video information. Construction lines—The dashed lines that outline objects, such as the scene, text objects, and imported decks. Container clip—A type of clip that combines multiple audio or video clips to create a mixdown, composite, or special effect. When you close a container clip, it appears as a single clip on the timeline. You can reopen a container clip at any time to add, modify, or delete its components. Control points—The points that define curves drawn in the viewer using tools in the Compositing, Graphics, or 3D DVE layout. Each control point has two tangent handles that can extend from it. See also Corner point, Cusp point, and Smooth point. Corner pinning—A technique used to pin the four corners of one static image (usually) onto another static image. Corner point—A type of control point whose tangent handles do not point in opposite directions, producing an angle or corner at the control point. See also Cusp point and Smooth point.

Crossfade—An audio transition between two clips over a specified number of frames. The sound of the outgoing clip gradually becomes less audible as the sound of the incoming clip increases to the desired volume. Cusp point—A type of control point whose tangent handles are of zero length, producing an angle at the control point. A cusp point is a variation of a corner point.
