162 Tutorial 8 – Working with video

Importing video

Before you can start working with video, you first need to import a video file. Let’s try this out with a

new project.

1. On the File menu, click New to open the New Project File dialog box.

2. Select the Normal template, give your project a name and then click OK.

If you are having trouble with this, please refer to “Tutorial 1 – Creating, playing, and saving

projects” on page 99.

3. On the File menu, point to Import and select Video.

The Import Video dialog box appears.

Let’s explore some of the options in the Import Video dialog box.

The first thing you will notice is that this dialog box is very similar to the Open dialog box that was

discussed in Tutorial 1. The Import Video dialog box functions in very much the same way with the

exception of two sections.
