Unreadable Files dialog
This dialog may appear when using the Clean Audio Folder command. This dialog lists any files on
your system which have a Cakewalk file extension (.cwp, .cwt, .wrk, and .tpl), but cannot be read by
SONAR. These files may be corrupt or they may not be SONAR files at all, if for instance you have
another application on your system which saves files with the same extension.
Video Export dialog
SONAR can combine an inserted video file with the audio tracks you record in a project to form a
new AVI, Windows Media Video, or QuickTime file. You can also save to an external FireWire
device. Choosing the File > Export > Video command opens the Video Export dialog box, which
offers the following options:
Save in. Choose the folder you want to store your new video file in.
File name. Fill in a name for your new file.
Save As Type. Choose Video for Windows (AVI), Windows Media Video, or QuickTime. If you
have an external FireWire device connected, you can choose AVC Compliant Device, or
whatever your device is named. See “Exporting a project to a FireWire DV device” on page 241
for more information.
Video Export Settings:
Encoding Options button. Clicking this button opens an encoding options dialog for the
kind of file you chose in the Save As Type field.
Audio Mixdown Options button. Clicking this button opens the Audio Mixdown Options
Important: If any of your projects appears in this dialog, do not proceed to delete any audio in
the Clean Audio Folder dialog without first restoring these projects from a backup source such
as a Bundle file (.cwb). If SONAR cannot read a project file, any audio associated with it will be
listed in the Clean Audio Folder dialog.
