USER MANUAL - version 1
Once nished, you will have the option to save the edit marks with the video or to write a new video le.
If you save your le with edit marks, you can always go back and change your edits at another time. The
actual video information is not deleted. On the other hand, you can write a new le which will only include
the video parts that you specied in the edit session. This le will be smaller but you can never un-edit it.
EXAMPLE 1
You have recorded a music video program and would like to keep one single music presentation. But you do not
