Add a Video to the Slide List

To Convert or Not to Convert

If you are unsure then dragging or otherwise adding a file to the Slide List will, if necessary, suggest Optimisation (Conversion to .avi)

A file which is of the type which requires Optimisation (.mov; .mp4 etc) can be dragged (left click and drag) into the Slide List
A Window pops up to suggest that you should Optimise the File
It is advisable to always accept this suggestion and Click on Optimise - you can save to the same folder as the original or change to a different folder location
The original file is added to the Slide List and the Slide Duration will be equal to the Video Clip Duration
It is (if required) possible to intercept the Optimisation Dialogue - see below
The file is then saved as Filename.converted.avi
The original file (after conversion) is replaced by the Filename.converted.avi File in the Slide List
