Video files
MAGIX Video Sound Cleaning Lab can
load video files in the following
formats: DV-AVI, AVI
*
(*.avi),
Quicktime (*.mov), MPEG 1/2/4
(*.mp4;*.mv4, *.3gp), AVCHD (*.mt2)
and Windows Media (*.wmv).
To do so, click the respective button
in the import section, "Video files"
and the "Load video files" dialog will
open.
* a corresponding codec must be installed on your system (e.g.
DivX
®
)
The video's audio track is displayed as an audio object in the master
track and can now be edited. The video is displayed in the video
monitor (view page 39) during playback.
Note: The video track of a video file is loaded for display in the
monitor, but can't be edited (cut, for example) with MAGIX Video
Sound Cleaning Lab.
There are two other specific video import options:
• Show video image. If you deactivate this option, the video track is
not loaded and displayed in MAGIX Video Sound Cleaning Lab. At
the end, you can export (view page 85) only the audio.
• Optimize video for smooth playback in video monitor. Some video
formats can be displayed directly in MAGIX Video Sound Cleaning
Lab, whereas others are need to be converted into the internal
MAGIX MXV format upon being opened. Opening them directly is
faster, but places a larger demand on the system. If playback in the
video monitor is jerky, you can use this option to convert the video
into the resource-saving MXV format.
