Quick links to procedures on this page:
The Library is a storage depot for everything you need to create a movie: video clips, photos, audio files, instant project templates, transitions, titles, filters, graphics, and tracking paths.
Create a custom library for your project. You can select, add, and delete media in the Library. If the media files are moved from their original location, you can automatically restore the links. Remember to export the library to create a backup on the hard drive or an external storage device. You can then import the library at a later time.
After completing a project, you can reset the Library to restore the default media clips. The files you added will be deleted from the Library, but not from their original location. You can always choose to re-import your media files into the Library.
Right-click a clip in the Library to view the clip's properties as well as copy, delete, or split clips by scene.
You can also trim a clip in the Library by using dragging the Scrubber in the Player panel to set the Mark-in/Mark-out points.
