>>10596876Thanks! I'm glad people like them because they take a long time to make. Other quality /here/ chuuba editors are Based Bug and Popato, who you should check out for inspiration. Based Bug's "The Beatani Experience" might be the best editing in a /here/ video in existence.
To answer your questions:
-Drag your video file into the "Project Media" window in the top left of Vegas (it should be MP4 format, use Twitch Leecher to download and it'll always be encoded correctly), then drag that down into the timeline in the bottom half of the screen. It should snap to the only video and audio track. The audio will take a while while it builds the peaks, which are just the visual waveforms you see in the audio track.
- Press spacebar to play, you can move the cursor by clicking around on the timeline. Spacebar again will snap the cursor back to where you started. Clicking on the timeline will place the cursor in a new spot. IF YOU DON'T SEE VIDEO HERE: Your input file is likely encoded wrong. Download Handbrake and re-encode to MP4.
- Once you have it playing, scrub through and find the part you want to cut. Place the cursor at the beginning by clicking on the timeline. Press "S" to cut the track. Play/place cursor at the end, and cut the track with "S" again. Delete the before and after sections of the track by selecting them and pressing the "Delete" key (or right click->Delete). Select your clip and drag it to the beginning of the timeline.
In the grey bar above the timeline (right above where the timestamp numbers are, in the middle the screen) click at the beginning of the clip and drag to the end. There should be a dark grey bar with yellow triangles at either end above your highlighted clip.
Go to File->Render, select the resolution you want on the popup window (go for 1080-60fps if Vegas 14 has it, in 16 it's under the "internet formats" category or something like that). Press "Render" and wait for it to generate.
Hope this helps!
