Playing a Clip
Now that you have recorded a clip, you can play it back:
1. Select a clip in the current bin.
2. Choose
Load
from the
Media
menu or from the shortcut menu with a right-
click. You can also click on the
Load
button on the current bin toolbar. The
clip is loaded onto the capture timeline.
3. Click on the Play button.
You can also drag and drop a clip onto the capture timeline. To drag and drop
a clip:
1. Select a clip by clicking the left mouse button while the mouse pointer is
over the desired clip and hold the button down.
2. Drag the clip to the capture timeline and release the mouse button.
Trimming a Clip
Trimming a clip means changing the mark-in and/or mark-out points so that the
clip duration becomes shorter. To trim a clip:
1. Select the clip you want to trim in the current bin.
2. Load the clip onto the capture timeline.
3. Do one of the following:
• Drag the mark-in or mark-out cursors to a new position on the timeline (see
the mark-in and mark-out cursors in Figure 117, page 242).
• Drag the current time cursor to a new location and click on the Modify Mark-
in button or Modify Mark-out button. The current position is taken as the
new mark position.
• Adjust the in and out marks by entering the new timecodes in the boxes
provided (see the timecode entry boxes in Figure 117, page 242).
Even when trimmed, media remains on disk. Choose Media | Cleanup to
remove excess media permanently from a trimmed clip. The trimmed portions
are removed from disk, thus freeing space for more clips.
