Hi, I am a newbie to video editing but have read some literature on principles. I have lots of video on my drives in .avi taken from various videocams and I want to cut these down into shorter named clips so that I can mix them in full videos. I have Videopad Full version 5.4, bought yesterday. Today I have experimented on the above by:
Loading a video file (.avi)
Running it in Clip Review
Using Start and End to take a new clip
Using Place to put it on the Timeline
Using Export (on top row) Clicking Video File
Saving the file as an .avi to a folder on my HDD
This appears to work but I wonder if I am taking the easiest path.
One nuisance is that, having taken a clip, I would like to cancel the Starts and Ends to allow me to start a new clip; how can I do this?Thanks for any help or suggestions for an 87-year old
