ULEAD VIDEOSTUDIO USER GUIDE
Tip: You can also use Zoom controls to display each frame of your video in the Timeline
and trim one frame at a time. The Scroll Bar makes navigating through your project
quicker and easier. A wheel mouse can also be used to scroll, and to zoom by pressing
[Ctrl].
To trim a clip directly on the Timeline:
1. Click a clip in the Timeline to select it.
2. Drag the yellow Trim handles on either side of the clip to change its length.
The Preview Window reflects the position of the Trim handle in the clip.
Or, click the timecode in the Duration box in the Options Panel and enter the
desired clip length
3. Other clips in your project automatically reposition themselves according to
changes made.
Note: Changes made in the video Duration box only affect the Mark-out point. The Mark-
in point remains unchanged.

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 DV 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 files.
In an MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 file, scenes can only be detected based on content
changes (i.e., by Frame Content).
