To make matters worse, this division isn’t consistent. The developers had an extremely puzzling decision to not breakdown the timecode by frames, but rather by hundredths of a second. In order to help you create frame-accurate edits, MVE allows you to navigate your work on a frame by frame basis using keyboard shortcuts, although those that are included could be simplified, and there sadly isn’t enough of them. You can find all this and more in the clip’s Tools section. There is no obvious keyframing process but that’s because a lot of effects you would animate are actually automated in MVE, like fading in or out, or panning and zooming. These actions are non-destructive and dragging a clip’s edges outwards will restore the previously cut segment. Alternatively, you can click on a clip to select it, move the playhead over the desired area and click on the Split button (the one shaped like a pair of scissors). This does not apply to any other layers above it.Įditing clips is as you’d expect: you can trim their In or Out points by clicking and dragging their edges inwards. This process works when reordering clips on the first, and primary, layer.

In a manner similar to Final Cut Pro X’s magnetic timeline, deleting clips will shunt any others on its right to the left to close the gap between all remaining clips. It’s however very easy to move clips around the timeline. Therefore the best way to use MVE’s import feature is to select the clips as you need them, which makes for a poor interface.

This is not a good way to edit a video, since the order you chose them may well not be the order they need to go together. Instead, MVE adds any clips you import directly into your timeline. Importing and editingĬontrary to most other editing apps, importing media doesn’t add it to a section in the interface where you can preview it, choose which parts to use, and likely discard the rest. The Clip’s Tools section allow you to easily modify your clip.
