Keyboard layout
The preset keyboard shortcuts are different and can be displayed in both modes via
"File -> Settings -> Keyboard shortcuts". MAGIX Video Pro X6 also allows familiar
shortcuts from Movie Edit Pro to be loaded if they are easier to work with. More
information about keyboard shortcuts can be found in the chapter "Keyboard
shortcut" (view page 335) and in the shortcut pdf located in the program folder of
MAGIX Vide
o Pro X6.
Load files
In MAGIX Video Pro X6, files are dragged and dropped to the desired position in
the project window or loaded using the commands in the Insert menu. For more
about this, please read the section "Insert modes" in the chapter "Workspaces".
In Movie Edit Pro, files can also be loaded form the Media Pool by double-clicking
them. This inserts the video or image file on the first track at the position of the
playback marker. If another object is already present at that position, the new
object will be inserted after it on the first track. Titles appear on tracks 3 and 4
and additional audio files are located on track 5.
You can also change this behavior under "File -> Settings -> Program" in the tab
"System" and under "Behavior on double-click".
Space bar behavior
In either program, use the space bar on your keyboard to start and stop. Pressing the
space bar again produces different effects according to the respective program:
In Movie Edit Pro, the playback marker is placed at the last stop position.
In MAGIX Video Pro X6, the playback marker is kept at the current position. This
corresponds with the functionality of a tape recorder when stopped.
Playback behavior may be switched via "File -> Settings -> Program" and then the
"Playback" tab.
Project folder
In Movie Edit Pro, the project folder function is not available.
MAGIX Video Pro X6 features the project folder as a separate folder on the right
side, which serves as an intermediate store or catch-all for all kinds of project
material. More information about this is available in the section "Project folder
(view page 61)" in the chapter "Workspaces".
