Like the Desktop, the timeline in the Player is convenient for quickly performing simple edits. You can trim both video and audio as well as cut a clip in two. However, you can only bring a single clip, which may be composed of one or more shots, into the Player's timeline. You cannot perform any edits that involve combining two clips or inserting frames from one clip into another.

You can create and edit transitions on shots already on the timeline. You can also create soft effects from the Player timeline.
