I have been editing files (home movies) that I had converted to DVD from Hi-8. I had 18 different DVD's when I started out. I worked through the DVD's one at a time, editing out boring, blurry or just unwanted parts. After I finished editing each DVD I saved it as a VideoPad project file. So I ended up with 18 separate project files. I now want to combine all of the project files into one. I need to be able to move clips around from one area to another and end up with one full length movie. I cannot figure out how to combine all of the project files into one editable movie. Is it possible or did I just waste 2 weeks worth of editing time?
