What format is this? AVCHD? If you’re computer’s fast enough, why don’t you just work in the original media?

All the best,

Yes, to the first. Depends on the format you’re working in. Many camera formats are relatively small files.

Don’t understand the second question. Don’t see the point of what you’re trying to do there.

All the best,

Tom

The preference has gone. The transition iOS always available media, and if there aren’t enough handles you get a warning dialog.

Make sure you have enough handles to create the transition overlap before you edit the clip into the timeline. If you don’t the application will have to trim the clips to make the overlap.

I would suggest you spend some time learning the basic of editing and the application.

All the best,

Tom

You could have skipped the first step. Just Opt-Cmd-down arrow would have overwritten the clip that was on the primary storyline. The audio would have been pushed down as a connected clip, but all you would have to do is select it and delete it.

All the best,

If you need to drag it use the Position tool. Or use Opt-Cmd-down arrow to Overwrite to Primary Storyline.

All the best,

Press Shift-delete to replace the clip with a gap clip.

That’s strange. How did you change the date? When I changed the content created date for an Apple loop that was made it 2007 and changed it to 2011, it moved to the correct location in the event browser.

All the best,

In 10.0.3 there is a function to adjust the date/time stamp of a clip.
