Use Trimmed Content In Transition
To access this option right-click a transition. Check the Use Trimmed Content In Transition option in the
context menu.
Transitions use frames at the end of one video and the beginning of another. This can consume portions of the
video that need to be seen.
Enable this option to have the transition effect use several frames of a video clip that was trimmed, split, or
cut. This retains the edited portion of the video and allows the effect to appear smoother since the "good"
frames are not being consumed by the transition.
Consider the following scenario:
1. Clip A and Clip B are on the timeline. I need to edit Clip A to remove the highlighted portion.
2. Clip A has been edited and all unwanted frames have been removed.
3. A transition has been added between Clip A and Clip B. The transition consumes the ends of the clips
causing the edited portion of Clip A to be cut off.
4. Enable the Use Trimmed Content In Transition option. This allowed the transition to use frames pre-
viously cut out of the video leaving the edited part fully intact.
