Context menu (right click)
Context menu can be reached by right clicking on a selected object. It offers functions
which are available and can be expected in the given context.
Video objects
Audio functions
Create wave form
In most cases, the waveform display of an audio file will not be required. However, if
you require this, e.g. to navigate while cutting video, a waveform display can be
produced manually via this function.
Video/audio on one track
Video material and the corresponding audio material (original sound) will be
displayed as one object on one track. Using the top object handle you can adjust the
video's opacity. The lower object handle adjusts the object's volume.
Video/audio in separate tracks
Audio material will be displayed on a separate track below the corresponding video
material. This makes it easier to make advanced adjustments to audio material that go
beyond changing the soundtrack's volume.
Remove audio object
When you no longer need the audio object, remove it.
If you decide that you need the original sound after all, you can "Restore audio object".
Create frame table (new)
Sometimes, rebuilding a frame table can get rid of problems in certain MPEG files. For
example, such problems can be present if the navigation (positioning of the playback
marker, transport) is bumpy or doesn't function at all.
Normally, when loading MPEG video, a frame table is not created in order to speed up
the loading process. If you do create one anyway, MPEG files are normally noticeably
faster and easier to edit.
Cut Trimmer
Shows or hides the "Cut trimmer" window. This allows you to make fine adjustments
to the position of the selected video or image objects and their handles – as well as
the transition characteristics (transition type, length). Please read the "Fine
adjustment of video ("Trimming")" chapter for more details.
