3 In the preview window, set the area to trim by manipulating the Trim
markers, which are small triangles at the start and end of the blue bar
below the video:
■
Drag the start marker to the right to mark the beginning of the
video. You can also click on the marker and use the right arrow
key for more precise placement.
■
Drag the end marker to the left to mark the end of the video. You
can also click on the marker and use the left arrow key for more
precise placement.
The video between the start and end marker (the lighter blue) is
included on the finished disc at recording time. The area outside of the
markers (the darker blue) is excluded from the finished disc. The
original video on your hard disk is unaffected.
4 Click Done.
