Open scenes as multiple clips in Timeline

[ambar]

When I split scenes of a video I have in my collection with the option "Open scenes as multiple clips in Tomeline" I expected that the original video file would appear splitted automatically in Timeline but that doesn't happen. I have to put manually all those splitted clips in Timeline so I can work on them.
Anothr question is that I've put all those splitted video clips in a folder I created for the project but I don't know where that folder is kept in my computer.
Any help would be most appreciated

When you split the video, presumably when the splitting is done, then the video is in the timeline and shows where the cuts/splits have been made? Is that so? Well, you give that a Project name (File > Save As). Then next time you open VS, you go to File > Open Project, and the split video should appear in the timeline.

As for where your files might be hidden on your computer, I don't know -- but unless you have changed the defaults, you will see from File > Preferences > General, that the working folder is normally in My Documents\Ulead Video Studio. They may be there.

Ok, that way it works. What I was doing was inserting the video file to Library, using the command "Insert Media File to Library", splitting the video file there using the mouse right button to display the command to split scenes from there.
About the other question, I can't find anywhere, not even where you indicated, a folder with the same name I created to put the specific video files of the project. Is a specific folder created or is it just encoded information in one of the folders that exist where you indicated?
Thanks

If you mean you created a folder separately using Windows to store files, then a Windows search should find it.

But I begin to suspect that what you are talking about is a New custom 'folder' created by using Library Manager. If so, then I am afraid that you are correct that it is really only a 'virtual' folder used by VS as a notional grouping of video files used by a specific project. But the actual video files themselves are not moved automatically to that 'folder'. They remain wherever they were captured to on your computer, which is usually the working folder.

To actually group them, you have to set up a proper folder in Windows and physically move the relevant files to it. Then you import them from there into VS and then use Library Manager to further group them from Video Studio's point of view.

Thanks for your answer. That's what I thought because there is really no proper folder in the folder you indicated before
