To Glenn,
All the you tube videos I’ve watched only show people dragging and dropping clips into a time line then pulling them together then saving. What I want to do is cut clip#1 at a specific frame then cut clip#2 at a specific frame and then join the 2 so that the 2 joined clips appear as 1.

Joseph,
I’m aware of the frame rate issue, when I grabbed and dragged clip#1 into the time line the software informed me of the difference and asks if I want to change it, and I agreed.

Earlier today after not getting any help from 3 different forums, I started DR, I dragged clip#1 and 2 into a time line and butted #2 up to #1. I then thought to myself I should separate them so I can make the cut in#1 then go to #2, make the cut in it then drag them back together. I was able to make the cut in#1 where I wanted, however when I went to clip#2 all I got was “Media Offline”. The file runs all blacked out but the sound is fine. None of the other files exhibit this anomaly.

I went back to you tube and the only thing I can find is “Relinking Media” and footage. The problem with this is none of the offerings solve the problem. One suggested to “Change parent directory, none of my mp4 files have that option within or out of DR. One person un/reinstalled DR and that changed nothing. What the heck caused the file to go “media offline”? Without being able to solve the issue I’m afraid to attempt any further work.

Is no one at this site able to or just unwilling to help me with either of my questions?
