Splitting the Video File
To save precious editing time, the Split Video function automatically splits an
original video file into two separate clips with one swift click and eliminates the
need to drag the same file onto the Storyboard twice and trimming both separately.
Just keep in mind this function is only intended for Library files that do not have
effects applied from other modes. Apply effects only after you split the video.
1 Select a media file from the Library by double-clicking on the selected file or
dragging it into the Preview Window. Refer to "Importing into the Library" on
page 27 for more information on importing.
2 To split video files that have already been applied to the Storyboard, simply
select the particular clip by double-clicking and it will be displayed in the
Preview Window.
Note: If the Storyboard clip has been previously modified or contain effects, this clip may not
be split.
3 Click the Tri m Mo d e located on the Modes Wheel.
4 Drag the Time Slider to the scene where you would like to split this video or
through any other navigational method.
5 Click Split Video . The file will be split into two clips on the Storyboard.
If you would like to further trim either clip, refer to "Trim Mode" on page 61.
