Tip: This option is helpful, for example, if a camera flash was captured in the
source footage. The flash from the camera would cause a sudden brightness
modification even though there was no actual scene change.
The preview always displays the end of the previous scene and the beginning
of the new scene. If the images do not differ except for the brightness, the
scene may have been falsly recognized. In this cases select "Delete scene
marker".
Via the zoom +/- buttons you can enlarge the part of the arranger where the
selected scene begins or previous scene ended.
You can use the "Sensitivity" controller to change the sensitivity of the scene
recognition, so that different scene changes can be found depending on the
setting.
With "Action on OK" you can specify whether the movie should be cut at the
selected scene transition or at all scene transitions and whether the found
scenes should be saved in the project folder.
Musical cut adjustment
Behind the "Adjust cuts to music" function in the "Edit" menu hides the option
to adjust the rhythm of an existing arrangement with cut scenes to a song in
order to transform the movie into a music video. Requisite is that the song
contains information about rhythm and beat.
 Place the arrangement with video sequences on the top track (track 1), which
should be used for the musical edit adjustment. If possible, the arrangement
should have the same length as the song and contain many cuts.
 Load the song, on which the cuts should be based, onto the track below.
 Select "Edit" > "Musical cut adjustment".
