Split by Scene

Use the Split by Scene feature in the Edit Step to detect different
scenes in a video file and automatically break it down into several
clip files.
The way VideoStudio detects scenes depends on the type of video
file. In a captured DVI AVI file, scenes can be detected in two ways:
• DV Recording Time Scan detects scenes according to their
shooting date and time.
• Frame Content detects content changes, such as motion
change, camera shifting, brightness change, etc., and splits
them into separate video files.
In an MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 file, scenes can only be detected based on
content changes (i.e., by Frame Content).
To use Split by Scene on a DV AVI or MPEG file:
1. Go to the Edit Step and select a captured DV AVI file or an MPEG
file in the Timeline.
2. Click Split by Scene in the Options Panel. This will open the
Scenes dialog box.
