Render to Timeline?

[Mark]

Hi again! Q' - If I create a point in and out at the top of the timeline, right click in the white area and choose "Rendering and add to timeline", is that the same as creating an AVI file like in DV Sorm? If so, where does the sound track that I added disapear to? - Still pulling my hiar out!! Any help, so appreciated as usual.

Cheers!

"Render and Add to timeline" exports that section to a new file, then places that rendered file onto the timeline in the same position (usually on a track above).

Thanks - So it's a separtate AVI file? and what about the audio, why is that not copied with it?

It depends on the clip. If it's a VA clip, the rendered clip will have audio.
It doesn't follow clip grouping (because what if there's more audio than it knows what to do with?).

Taking a step back, what are you trying to achieve here? Usually you do the Render Area to render just the sections that don't play back in real-time.

Audio goes with the rendered clip??? I don't recall that...
If you go to the Project Folder\Rendered and all the clips play without sound.

If you need audio, that calls for an export.

By the way... I'm a huge fan of R&ATT
I'm less of a fan of rendering sub-RT areas because there's somehow less to fall back on in "Undo Land"

Actually, I think I might've confused myself. R&ATT (I like that acronym) is per-segment. Never actually tried rendering the audio section though.

You don't have to export:
put an in out and use add to bin as sequence that takes the audio with it.

That's another way of doing it :)

Rendering and add to timeline is designed so that if some effects or transitions don't play in realtime, it will render the video between in and out and place it on a higher track so that you get realtime, this does not require audio because the audio is already there on the tracks below

Oh SNAP!
Still a noob

But remember, like others were saying this is only a video render. The audio is left where it is so there is no need to render the audio also. :)
