ShuttlePRO comes with a variety of
presets for different video editing applications, including Ulead MediaStudio
Pro. These presets will allow
you to access each program's essential functions via the ShuttlePRO.
Nevertheless, some presets may suit you better than others. For example, the
function programmed onto a given button may not seem particularly useful to
you, while a function that you find indispensable might not have been integrated
into the preset. With this in mind, the software helpfully allows you to modify
existing presets in order to redefine buttons' functions.
Similarly, if you are using an application for which no preset is available,
you can create your own and define the function of each of the ShuttlePRO's
buttons.
The procedure outlined below explains how to personalize your presets:
The preset personalization interface appears.
If you wish to modify an existing preset:
|
If you wish to create a new preset:
A dialog box appears, asking you to select the executable file corresponding to the application for which you would like to create a preset.
Remark: the executable files corresponding to the three MediaStudio Pro modules are located by default in C:\Program Files\Ulead Systems\Ulead MediaStudio Pro 6.5 VE (aeditor.exe for the Audio Editor module, VCapture.exe for the Video Capture module and veditor.exe for the Video Editor module).

Do Nothing | This option disables the button. |
Same as Lower Value | This option can only be used for positions on the Shuttle's jog wheel. It allows you to apply the same action to a position as that defined for the previous position. Example: you have emulated the Fast-forward action on the Shuttle in Right 1 position. By selecting the Same as Lower Value option, the Shuttle in Right 2 position will automatically emulate the Fast-forward action. |
Type Keystroke |
This option allows you to emulate a keyboard shortcut. Please refer to the software's documentation for a list of keyboard shortcuts, then click inside the Keystroke field and press the keys which make up the keyboard shortcut you wish to use. The Frequency field then allows you to select the manner in which the keyboard shortcut will be emulated. Three types of frequency are available: a single time, a certain number of times per second, or hold down. For keyboard shortcuts corresponding to single actions (example: open a file), the Once Only frequency is appropriate. For actions such as Fast-forward, it is best to select the Hold Down and Auto-Repeat frequency, or to select a precise rhythm (for each position on the Shuttle's jog wheel, for example). For the action to be carried out immediately, enable the Sync release option. This simulates an immediate release of the key, resulting in an instantaneous action. Enter a description of the action in the Comment field, in order to help you to easily identify each button's function in your different presets. |
Press Modifier Keys |
This option allows you to emulate pressing one or more special keys (Shift, Control, the Windows key, Alt or Alt Gr - the right Alt key on European keyboards). An example: holding down the [Shift] key often allows you to select several files. Simply click on the button(s) you wish to use. For the action to be carried out immediately, enable the Sync release option. This simulates an immediate release of the key, resulting in an instantaneous action. Enter a description of the action in the Comment field, in order to help you to easily identify each button's function in your different presets. |
Scroll Up / Scroll Down | These options
allow you to scroll the screen up or down. The Scroll Amount field
appears, allowing you to set the scrolling speed (expressed in number of
lines).
Enter a description of the action in the Comment field, in order to help you to easily identify each button's function in your different presets. |
