Toast 9.0.2, Tivo Files And Editing

[BarryCh209]

OK. I'm sure that I'm not the only one but I just don't know where else to turn.

 

I recently bought a mac and Toast 9 (I'm subsequently upgraded to 9.0.2) and own a TiVo. As promised Toast 9 can pull down the TiVo files just fine. My problem is in editing the files.

 

I've read the Knowledgebase file at http://kb.roxio.com/content/kb/Toast/000063T?set-locale=en but must be missing something very obvious ... and I can't afford to pay for support after having just spent money for Toast 9.

 

So, with that in mind, here's the situation and what I do exactly:

 

Toast is opened and I drag one of the TiVo files to Toast

I'm in the Video window and I click edit. From the drop-down box, I choose edit again (something that is missing from the knowledgebase webpage above). At this point, Toast is "Updating" and when it's finished, I'm in a (presumably) editing window. I edit what I want but there is no "Done" button to click.

 

Where is the "Done" to click?

 

And, I can't seem to get frame granularity in Toast 9. Does such a thing exist? Using the Fine controls doesn't seem to help.

 

Thanks for any suggestions and pointers!

in the toast video player, after you set the markers where you want, go to the file menu and hit save. Then close the window and give it a shot.
