Video
Cubase supports the integration of video files in your project.
You can play back video files in various formats and via different output devices from
within Cubase, edit your music to the video, extract the audio material from a video
file, and replace the audio later with different audio material.
Before You Start
When working on a project involving a video file, you first need to set up your system
according to your equipment and your demands.
The following sections provide some general information about video file formats,
frame rates, and video output devices.
Video File Compatibility
Because there are many types of video files, it can be difficult to determine if one
will work on your system.
There are two ways to figure out if Cubase can play back a certain video file:
• Open the video file with QuickTime 7.1 or higher, because Cubase uses
QuickTime for playing back video files.
• Check the file information of a video file in the Pool. If the information reads
“Invalid or not supported file!”, the video file is either corrupt or the format is
not supported by the available codecs.
NOTE
If you are not able to load a certain video file, you must use an external application
to convert the file into a compatible format or install the required codec.
