double-click an empty area of the clip list). In the Open dialog box, select
the .avi files you want to import, then click Open .

appear in the clip list. To play back your clips:

controls.

To save a clip list, right-click the clip list. Choose Save As from the pop-up
menu to save your current clip list as a .dvl file.
You can load a clip list (.dvl) using any of the following methods:
• Right-click the clip list. Choose Open Clip List or Open Recent to select a
recently opened clip list.
