Ableton/Live/UG/28 Video/04 Video Trimming Tricks
- Movies often arrive with a few seconds of pre-roll (the "two-beep") that the mix engineer expects in the delivered audio too. To compose with the action at 1.1.1 and timecode 00:00:00:00, then restore the pre-roll:
- Drop the movie at 1.1.1.
- In Clip View, drag the Start Marker right to where the action begins.
- When the music is ready to render, Select All and drag everything a few seconds right.
- Select only the video clip and drag its left edge all the way left to reveal the pre-roll.
- With the video clip still selected, Export Audio/Video renders a file as long as the original movie, pre-roll included.
