# Capturing Clips Using an EDL

Use the Auto-Capture menu to load clips specified in an EDL. You can also use the multi-capture option to capture material from multiple EDLs.

Before a capture, the clip library reel specified in the Library Reel field is searched for clips that match those about to be captured. Only required clips are captured.

During auto-capture, the current position and in and out points are shown in the Timecode fields. Also, the remaining time in a capture session is displayed in the Time Remaining to Capture field.
