  Set the reference frame type: AA or BB, corresponding to the timecode value entered in the Reference Frame field.
Auto-Fill Black Frames button

Default Reference Frame box
  Select AA or BB.
Show Black Frames button
  Enable to highlight the places in the currently loaded EDLs where gaps of black frames occur.
Timewarp Fit button
  Enable to automatically apply a timewarp to material on tapes referenced by EDLs where 2:3 pulldown removal was disabled (for example, when a tape contains native 30 fps interlaced video material), so that it can be easily integrated with 24 fps material.
Mix field
  Enter the number of frames to ensure that match frames on timewarped elements are maintained. This field is active when Timewarp Fit is enabled.
