About video tracks
A video track consists of a number of sequential pixel images that play back at a certain speed (called the frame rate
and expressed in frames per second) to give the viewer the visual impression of motion.
You add a video track to your movie by dragging a Video Track icon from the QuickTime set of the objects
toolbox to the track list area of the Timeline Editor. When you select a file for the Video Track icon, you can choose
either of the following:
A video track from another movie If the movie contains more than one video track, GoLive adds the first video
track only (or other visible track) in the movie. The first track of a movie file is positioned at the top of the track list
in the Timeline Editor. However, don’t confuse the first video track with the topmost layer (called
Layer 1 ) in the
movie, which is placed at the bottom of the track list.
An animated GIF file
GoLive automatically converts the file to a video track, which you can then play faster or
slower by setting the track duration in the Video Track Inspector.

About color tracks
A color track adds a layer of color to the movie window. You add a color track to your movie by dragging a Color
Track icon from the QuickTime set
of the objects toolbox to the track list area of the Timeline Editor.
A new color track is opaque, by default, and has the same dimensions as the current dimensions of the movie
window. To change the fill color of the color track, use the color field in the Basic tab of the Color Track Inspector.
To change how the color track overlays other tracks, use the Mode menu in the Basic tab of the Color Track Inspector.

Picture tracks
When you want to present a slide show or a series of still images as part of a QuickTime movie, use the picture track.
You can set the amount of time each picture is displayed, and you can select special effects, such as Dissolve, for the
transitions between pictures. You can also set the number of times you want the images to be repeated in a loop.
