Capturing with VSX5 Ultimate

Post by Ken Veal »

I captured from my DV camcorder into my named working folder.I selected capture to library and not the timeline.When i finished I moved to the edit step.I could not see anything in the library so I went to" browse media files" and found the working folder with all the uvs scenes in it.I selected all of them and clicked open.They then appeared in the library.Is this normal?, in VS11+(my last version) the captured files went straight into the project if I remember correctly.Am I not following the
workflow correctly, or missing a step?
I then dragged the first scene into the timeline after the project intro( done beforehand) but all of the captured scenes in the library moved to the timeline as well.What am I doing wrong here?

when you set up your video capture the options screen - which appears after you have clicked "Capture >> Capture Video" allows you to select whether you want to save to a library - by clicking to tick a check box - and which library to save to - by means of a drop down selection - so check what you have set there.

Regards your second problem - after you had imported your clips to the library in one operation did you click anywhere else first so as to deselect all the clips - if not then that is why pulling one down pulled the rest - you had selected them all. When you do a bulk import - not just in VideoStudio but in any Windows application you need to de-select them all - usually by clicking in a 'dead' area before you can handle them independently.
