The following constraints apply when placing a clip on the timeline:
• It is not allowed to drop a clip over the video area of the timeline. This rule
does not apply to a clip containing exclusively a video element.
• Timeline audio tracks must be selected (from the check box).
• Dropping clips into the timeline is only possible between the same types of
audio tracks. You will not be able to drop a stereo track on a 5.1 track.
Timeline audio track type must have been set according to the clip track audio
type: if the clip contains two 5.1 tracks and 2 stereo tracks, they must be set
in the timeline.
• The number of clip audio tracks must not exceed the number of available
timeline tracks. A clip with 5 stereo tracks will not be droppable if a 5.1 track
has been set in the timeline, as only 4 stereo tracks will be available.
• Only 5 audio tracks are available in the timeline. It is therefore not possible to
place a clip with more than 5 audio tracks. If the clip contains more than 5
audio tracks:
o
When you drag a clip from the Player onto the Timeline, only the tracks
selected in the Player with the track selection buttons will be added to the
edit:
o
When you drag a clip from the Clips zone to the timeline, only the active
tracks of the clip will be added to the edit.
