In the beginning, it's probably best to load a video file for test purposes and to get to
know the program functions.
The Media Pool appears at the top right; four tabs provide access to all important
elements that are required for video projects. The first tab displays all usable files
(besides movies, also photos, images, audio files, and even RTF text files for
captions) in the current folder.
Navigation works just like in other file managers: folders can be opened with a
double-click. Arrow buttons allow you to go one level up or down. You can also
display a folder tree featuring the folder hierarchy and then use the search
function (view page 56) to locate files according to different criteria.
All files opened in the file list can be loaded and used. Find a video file, e.g. in the
format *.mpg, *mxv, or *.avi.
