I have a raw footage video file about 2hrs in length (11.6Gb) that I’m trying to edit into a DVD with chapters. I’ve imported the file into the Video File bin. For sequence 1, I dragged the video file onto the timeline and then split it into 2 clips. The first clip is roughly the first 5 minutes of footage. Next, I created an empty sequence, then “cut and pasted” the second clip from sequence 1 into sequence 2. In sequence 2, I repeated the process of splitting off the first 5 minutes and “cut and pasted” the remainder into Sequence 3. Same process for sequence 4. When I repeat the process for sequence 5, the program aborts.
I was running 6.24. I paid the upgrade charge for 6.30, hoping that might resolve the problem, but no. Is there a limit to the number of sequences? Is there a better approach to achieve my objective?
