Selecting within Video Frame
Boundaries
Pro Tools does not let you select, play back, or
edit a partial video frame. The following rules
apply when selecting or editing video:
• When you make a selection in a video track,
the selection boundaries follow the current
Grid setting but round to the nearest video
frame boundary, as follows:
• If the selection includes more than half of a
video frame, the full video frame is in-
cluded within the selection.
• If the selection includes less than half of a
video frame, that video frame is not in-
cluded in a video selection.
• When you paste a selection containing video
to a video track, the insertion point automat-
ically aligns with the closest video frame
boundary.
Using the Insert Silence Command
to Insert Space in Video Tracks
The
Insert Silence
command lets you make a se-
lection on a track (or tracks) and insert precisely
that amount of space. You can also select across
video and audio tracks, and use the Insert Si-
lence command to insert audio silence and
space simultaneously.
In Shuffle mode, all video data on the track is
shuffled later in the track by an amount equal to
the selection. In Slip, Grid, or Spot mode, the
In-
sert Silence
command works just like the
Edit >
Clear command.
To insert space into a video track:
1
Make a selection in a track or tracks. The
length of the selection determines the duration
of the space inserted.
2
Choose
Edit > Insert Silence
.
Renaming Video Disk Files
When renaming audio regions in either the
Timeline or the Region List, you have the option
of also renaming the audio files on disk. How-
ever, this does not apply to video files on disk.
To rename video files on disk, you must rename
them in a DigiBase browser or in Windows Ex-
plorer or Mac Finder.
Video Region Groups
(Pro Tools HD and Pro Tools LE with Complete
Production Toolkit or DV Toolkit 2, or with an
Avid Video Peripheral Only)
You can include video regions within region
groups for the following operations:
• Creating region groups
• Creating multitrack region groups (includ-
ing audio tracks)
• Editing region groups
• Creating fades and crossfades for audio files
in region groups
• Importing and exporting region group files
When you paste audio and video simulta-
neously, this video frame re-alignment may
result in the audio not being positioned
exactly where you placed it. A warning
dialog displays when this occurs.
Changes made in the operating system will
not automatically update the information
displayed in the DigiBase browser.
See “Region Groups” on page 743 for
detailed information on working with
region groups.
