Option What it means
Look in Use this field to find the folder that contains the video file you want to insert.
File name Use this field to find the video file you want to insert. Clicking the name of the
file in the window above this field causes it to appear in the File name field.
Files of Type Use this field to select what type of video files to display.
Note: If your system has a basic Windows installation with DirectShow
installed, you may not be able to insert QuickTime video files. You may need to
install the latest video Codecs from Microsoft’s web site in order to import
different video formats. The problem can be solved by going to Microsoft’s web
site (www.microsoft.com) and downloading and installing the latest version of
Media Player.
Show File Info If you check this option, SONAR displays the video file’s format tag, audio
sample rate, and length in both audio samples and time.
Import Audio Stream If you check this option, SONAR imports the video file’s audio file along with
the video. Select a blank track before you do this.
Import Mono Tracks If you check this option, SONAR imports the video file’s audio file into two
separate tracks, instead of one stereo track.
Open After you decide what options you want, clicking the Open button imports the
video and, optionally, the accompanying audio into your project.
