Advanved Editing

[Gooders]

I have edited and burnt many catured Video tapes to DVD using Roxio Advanced editing, but my latest efforts cannot get past the first window of editing. I go into the advanced editing programme click on new prodution, find my video and bring it up in the main area, it then shows itself in box 1 - I edit the first section, but cannot get my video in box No 2 to edit the next section. Could someone please tell me what I have forgotten or what I am doing wrong.

 

Many thanks RG

Do your editing in Timeline mode ! Idf you have only one video added, it will show in only one box until you start splitting it.

 

Or am I misreading you duplicate posts?

I have never used the timeline only the storyline. I cannot understand after years of using this method I do not know how to get my video in box 2. If I start learning to use the timeline for editing, I will not know what went wrong with the storyline editing.

What do you mean by "I do not know how to get my video in box 2"? Do you already have some video in panel 2 (what you call "box 2") or do you not know how to add video to panel to?

 

I don't know what kind of editing you have been doing in the storyline. I think most users always use the timeline for making edits to a video since it offers options that just cannot be done in storyline. I use the storyline mainly for adding transitions, special effects, etc. Any splitting of video, removing segments, modifying the audio, etc is most easily done from the timeline.
