Setting Initial Trim Points

GoPro Studio lets you trim your source file before converting it to a GoPro CineForm file.

This is helpful in reducing the size of the converted file and it eliminates any unwanted

portions of the initial recording from being included in the converted file. By using the

MARK IN and MARK OUT buttons you can trim the file to include only the portion(s) of

the recording that you actually want to keep. Do this to choose your favorite shots and to

make your editing experience easier and more fun.

1. Select a source file by clicking on it in the Import Bin.

2. Move the Play-head on the Playback Slider to the desired start point of your clip

and press the MARK IN button to trim the beginning of the file.

3. Now move the Play-head to the desired end point of your clip and press the

MARK OUT button to trim the end of the file.

Clicking on the MARK IN and/or MARK OUT buttons will mark your trim points by

darkening the unused portions of the file on the Playback Slider. To undo your trimming,

simply move the Play-head to a new location and click on the MARK IN or MARK OUT

button again.

If your clip has any HiLight tags, they will show up on the Playback Slider as yellow

vertical markers. You can use these as a guide to quickly find the HiLights from your

recorded videos. Then simply set your IN and OUT points around the HiLight tag.

Now you can add the file to the Conversion List or set advanced conversion settings.

TIP: If you want to convert multiple portions of the same source file, mark the IN and OUT

points for the first clip and then add it to the conversion list. Then repeat the IN and OUT

point marking process to choose new trim points for the second clip and then add the

second clip to the conversion list. Repeat these steps for as many clips as you would like

to make from the original file.
