15 minutes and the AVI file would start playback at 15 minutes into the video file. However, all the audio
in MAGIX music editor 2
would start at position 0.
It makes good sense to write down the offsets you are specifying for the individual projects you are
working with. This way you can easily identify offset references for your work.
Play Always
This checkbox allows you to specify whether MAGIX music editor 2 is to play the media file every time
you start playback or recording in MAGIX music editor 2 . If you uncheck the option, MAGIX music
editor 2
will not play back the media file. This is a quick way to turn off the playback of the media file.
Load Always New
If this option is checked, MAGIX music editor 2
will always load the media file for every playback or recording of your VIP or Wave project. If the box
is not checked the playback of the media file is performed with the contents of the memory. If the media
file is too large for the buffers, the playback is performed from the hard disk.
Synchronization to Audio playback
Synchronizes the new media link (e.g. AVI-Files) with the existing VIP
Extract Audio from AVI
If the file type is an AVI file with video and audio data, audio streams are extracted from all other
information and the audio information itself is put into a Wave project. This allows you to extract and edit
the audio apart from the rest of the contents in the imported file.
Replace Audio in Existing AVI
This option performs a track bouncing of the current VIP into 1 WAV file. This file is merged into the
selected AVI file, so the AVI gets a new audio track.
Create AVI / Audio Copy
This option performs a track bouncing of the current VIP into 1 WAV file. The AVI file is copied to a
new file, which contains the new audio track. This option keeps the original AVI.
Video Without Sound
This option applies for AVI files only. If the AVI file contains audio the playback of the AVI file and it's
audio could interfere with the audio playback in MAGIX music editor 2
. For this reason, it is suggested that you turn the audio playback for the AVI file off.
Video in MAGIX music editor 2 Window
This option also applies to the AVI file playback only. Normally, the AVI file is played back in a
completely independent window. This means, that if you run the MAGIX music editor 2 window
enlarged you will not see the playback of the AVI window. You would need to minimize the MAGIX
music editor 2 window or scale the window in order to display both windows on the screen. However,
by checking this option you can display the AVI window as another MAGIX music editor 2 related
window, which always stays on top during playback. This allows you to display the AVI movie at any
time the playback or recording in MAGIX music editor 2
takes place.
Show Video Tracks
This is a new feature in MAGIX music editor 2
! With this option, you can display a video track in the VIP window, which shows individual frames of
the AVI file. In the upper left-hand corner of the VIP window, the current frame is displayed when
clicking the play cursor at a particular location in the VIP tracks. This allows you to position audio events
and material at exact frame positions.
If you zoom into the window, the video track is also enlarged, showing the video frames at a lower zoom
level as well. If you select to display the window at its lowest zoom level, each frame is shown in the
video track.
