Replacing Sources in a Clip’s History
 
 
 
NoteNot applicable to Backdraft Conform.

You can replace one or more sources in the history of record clips. The sources you swap must be of the same resolution and bit depth. You can render the swapped sources directly in History View.

Replacing the sources in clip history allows you to:

If the new source is longer than the original source, the new source is shortened to fit the duration of the original source. If the new source is shorter that the original, the last frame of the new source is repeated to the end of the segment.

  1. Display the history of a record clip. See Displaying Clip History.
