When importing a video from my DV camera to Roxio media import I notice it is divided into many scenes. Is there a way to save the file so that the scenes will be accessable for editing at a later time?

Jim, perhaps a few more words would be helpful. If you want one longer video file, just add the individual scenes to VideoWave, they will add seamlessly. From there you can go to DVD via MyDVD or output it in different formats If you want to save/play them on a computer hard drive/phone/Ipod/etc. It would help if you told us where you want it to go. You can always recreate the scenes.

The scenes are created during the capture from DV camera process and, before you output the captured video, You can see them on the Roxio media import screen and you can play each one individually. After you output the video to a file the scenes seem to be lost or blended together. Is there a way to output the video with the scenes intact (as though it has been "pre-split" at each one of the scenes) ?

Don't think so if you are outputting the scenes to one video file. Of course if you are burning a DVD, the scenes can be made into chapters.

Is there a site or tutorial that shows how to do this?

This is for EMC V9 but it may be close enough for V8. I don't remember in which version the chapter marks were added.

From what I read there, it sounds like you have to split the video first then add the chapters.
