The upper button bar can be found in the monitor to the top left. It has the following
functions:

disc project or a new film (view page 245) opens to get started.
Key
board shortcut: Ctrl + N
Load project
With this option you can load a project or a media file. Please note that all
media files associated with it must be loaded along with a project. MAGIX
Video Pro X5 will search for all used sounds and video files in the folders in
which they were located when the move was saved.
Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl + O
Save project
The current movie is saved with the name displayed in the project window. If
you have not yet specified a name for your project, a dialog will open wherein
MAGIX Video Pro X5 asks you to do so.
Please note: In the project file (*.MVP), all information about the used media files,
cuts, effects, and titles are saved, but not the picture and sound material itself. This is
found in the recorded or imported media files that remain unchanged during the entire
MAGIX Video Pro X5 editing process. To save the full movie into a dedicated
directory, for instance to continue editing on a different PC, please use the command
"Copy movie and media into directory".
