## 2.14. USB Jog/Shuttle Device

A specialized input controller for video editing. It consists of a wheel with a ring around it.

The wheel actually more closely resembles a dial and provides bi-directional, very fine, frame-based navigation. The shuttle ring wraps around the wheel, and it is spring loaded such that when when released it "snaps" back to the center position. The shuttle provides bi-directional, variable speed playback including fast, normal, and slow speeds. Often, a video deck that supports these commands calls this a "trick play" mode. Usually, these devices also contain additional programmable buttons typically mapped to editing commands. Kino supports several USB Jog/Shuttle control devices both in the edit, capture, and trim modes. In capture mode, Kino supports the IEEE 1394 AV/C commands required to control your camera or deck's transport mechanism.
