6. natively you can create and modify instances manually Movie Packaging We recommend always packaging movies A package is really just a folder with files inside Mac OS X simply recognizes it as a single file This makes it very convenient to move around and not lose any necessary files We use packages because it is solid way of protecting the source movie and handy to store timeline and edit list files inside A definite trend is users are acquiring video files over the internet While this is a great convenience the quality and creation process is largely unknown What you download is what you get in most situations there is no knowledge on how the video was created and what tools were used to com press etc Some of these movies will have different movie data containers that may be corrupted by Quicktime when there are attempts to write data back into the file This is why it is best to always package the movies The packaging process places the source movie in a movie data folder then creates a reference movie that points to the source movie Any changes to aspect ratio or text track information of the movie is saved in the reference movie and we never have to touch the actual source movie If a new timeline is linked to a free standing movie a prompt will appear asking whether or not you wish to package the movie We highly recommend answering yes to this question The process is very quick it simply wraps up the movie and timeline ins

These buttons start a new video file each time they are used so they can re synchronize the video and sound This is less common as the cap ture window breaks the files up in 5 second chunks But video might be acquired from other sources that exhibit the problem Using the procedures below may not be very useful in this situation since there are variable length sections of video and sound and synchronization in one area may lead to slight miss alignment in others Fortunately the contracting and expanding procedures work best for movies created when the pause resume button are not used because any drift is constant across a single movie file In preferences under Capture select Equalize video and sound tracks when capturing This will equalize the length of the sound and vid eo tracks during the movie capture process even if the pause button is used In general the sound track tends to be shorter than the video track so this function attempts to keep them the same length This setting is turned on as a default In the main menu bar select Edit gt Equalize track times This can only be done after the movie capture However it is not as accurate as equalizing during capture if your movie is made from more than one file You can choose to make the equalization perma nent if your movie is attached to a timeline window This procedure stretches or contracts the length of the sound track to equal th
