Cine

Use the Cine tool to play a series of images like a movie. When Cine is activated, you can select the target frame rate to control how quickly the Cine tool plays through the images. If the Cine module is present, eUnity attempts to play the series at the frame rate specified in the DICOM header.

A series must contain more than one image to activate the tool. By default, only one series at a time can display a Cine movie. When another series is selected, Cine plays the new series.

Toggle Cine mode / Play video

Play a series of images in succession (like a movie) or play a video. When Cine / Video mode is activated, the Cine toolbar is displayed in the active viewport. The default location of the Cine / Video toolbar can be configured by the system administrator.

Note that while the button on the toolbar enables either Cine or Video mode (depending on the media type), the Cine toolbar differs between Cine and Video mode. For information on the video toolbar, see Video.
