Project Creation and Management In the Content screen you can create a project according to your requirements and arrange titles of a compilation. A "project" refers to the process that begins when the video is first opened and ends when the movie is finished or exported.

Project Creation and Management 2.5 Saving a Project Once you have started working with your project, occasionally you may want to interrupt your work, resume it at a later time, or burn it. A project file (*.nvc) saves the project data – information about file paths and layout – after you have started work on your project. This means that you can interrupt your work at any time and resume the project at a later point or burn it on disc. The contents of a project file can only be opened with Nero Video.
Project Creation and Management Nero Video does not allow you to start multiple projects within one project. You can only create and edit projects one after another. Therefore, it is not possible to load two project files (*.nvc or *.wlmp files) into one single project. If you have two different projects that you want to combine, export one of them to a video file via the Export button and add the resulting video file to the project which has not been exported. 2.
