I have looked at several threads where others had the same problem I do. This program makes no sense to me.

1) The "Split Video" button that I think I need is sometimes there and sometimes not. When it is there it is sometimes active and sometimes greyed out.

2) When I do manage to edit a video in some way I can't figure out what I have done. Why do I end up with more versions of the original clip in the upper right hand area? Shouldn't I just get my edited clips down on the timeline?

3) Can anyone explain the basic thinking of this whole setup? Why isn't it just, select point A, select point B, cut?

I have Uleads scant tutorials. You can't take them step by step because the buttons they mention (ie split video) are not there.


Please take me step by step though the process of cutting out commercials the way you do it. It must be reletively quick and easy. Maybe someone would like to make a tutorial on this. I know I am not the only one who would appreciate it.

Thanks
