It is very good how you can multi-split video files and then go to "Save Trimmed Video" , it would be good if it had a "save all" option because when you have like 28 to save one after the other and have to click on the file then go up to Clip> Save Trimmed Video each time, 28 times in a row can be tirering. At the least a keyboard shortcut.
But over all it's good !

I take it youve used the multi-trim function and now want to treat all your 28 clips as seperate files. The easy way and to avoid any further rendering (and subsequent loss of quality) is to
1. Click the drop down box below the VideoStudio9 logo and at the bottom you have library manager. Click the New button and create a new 'folder' for your 28 clips.
2. Highlight all of your clips on the timeline and drag them up to the library. All of your 28 clips are now in the library and can be used as if they were "real" seperate clips.

RE Multi-Trim
Yea tried that, but they are only "virtual" clips because the folder i create is only a "virtual" folder
so i still need to click on the file go up to "Save Trimmed Video" 28 times X 150 because that how many there is.

Sorefinger,
Yes that would be nice, however what you are wanting it to do, would be just as time consuming. For each clip that you want to save, VS would then have to create that video file. Using the library and "virtual clips" allows you to use those as a clip by just dragging them to the timeline. Creating a special library for those segments I think is a neat way to have access for different projects...

RE: Multrim
The thing with "Save Trimmed Video" is it does not re-encode the video and is very quick at saving the trimmed clips. Thats all i need it to do.
The other program i tried was Easy Video Splitter, you just do the mark in, mark out, mark in, mark out etc... then click split and it would split it in to 28 separate clips in one go without re-encoding but was very difficult do as it has no jog wheel to get an accurate frame position, it just has one slide bar but Video Studio is Heaven for that.

You seem intent on making 28 or more seperate physical clips.
As Vidoman and I previously mentioned there is no need.
Once you have created the virtual clips you work with those virtual clips in exactly the same way as if they were seperate physical clips.
You are simply creating extra unecessary work for yourself, you are also risking an unecessary degredation in quality.

Sorefinger -- I agree this function would be nice to have in VideoStudio.
This feature is in MediaStudio Pro8, and I actually use it alot (it's called "Smart Trim").
It comes in handy when I want to "cleanup" my hard drive (or use the Smart Package feature). Say I have a long dv capture about 10 minutes, but I really only needed 7 scenes that last about 3 minutes. I can use "Smart Trim" to export those 7 scenes to a different folder, and I have the option to keep the original 10-minute video, or get rid of the 10-minute video after saving the 7 scenes I want (I usually opt to keep it, then delete it manually once I'm sure I don't need anymore scenes).
Perhaps you could download the MSP8 Trial to see what it can do for you in terms of this feature, as well as many other advanced features
Regards,
George

RE: Multi Trim
Thanks for that info George, I tried what you said in MS 8 but it seem to be re-encoding the clips and took longer than just "Save Trimmed Video" in VS.
For the others guys who responded, I have 150 Karaoke Laserdiscs with up to 28 songs on each that need to be transferd to hard drive for quick easy access and I DON"T want to make them into a DVD ! That's why they are no good in a "Virtual" library. I had no problem with the VCD & CDG discs but you can't rip a Laserdisc into chapters to your hard drive, I have to capture it in real time.
But thanks anyway guys.
