To
Edit video from Video Cameras that record to DVDs |
Bringing in files from a camcorder that records to the
small DVD discs is easy. You can do it in Studio 9, 10
and 11. Since the file is already recorded you do not
use the Step 1 (Capture). For DVDs, all you have to do
is click on the "file" menu, scroll down to "Import DVD
Titles" and make sure that the DVD is in your DVD drive.
Then select the DVD that you want to import, type a name
for the disc, click on the files that you want to import
and then click on the "Import" button. Prior to doing
this you can also play the files and preview them to
make sure they are the ones that you want.
