Video Remixer: Secondary split position

[jhogsett]

On the Video Remixer Split Scene tab in the Advanced Options accordion there is a new feature to add a second split when splitting a scene. This is useful for when there is a scene that needs to be isolated within a larger scene, for example, when a commercial break needs to be dropped within a larger main scene.

Checkbox Use Secondary Split

• On checking, copies the current split position to the secondary split slider
• This remembers the current split position and allows using the main split slider to identify the other needed split

NOTE: The earlier of the two split positions will be processed first. This allows an easy sequence of steps to isolate and remove a mid-scene ad break:
1. Use the main slider to find the first frame of the ad break to remove
2. Check the Use Secondary Split checkbox. This copies the main split position to the secondary slider.
3. Use the main slider again, this time to find the first frame of the main scene after the ad break
4. Click the Split - Keep Before button
5. The earlier split, copied to the secondary slider is performed, and the part before the split is set to Keep
6. The later split showing on the main slider is performed, and the part before the split is set to Drop while the part after the split is set to Keep
