This is the very first time for me to edit video, and I've been starting to edit football highlight video using PowerDirector 365 for only a week or two. There're some problems that make me feel really frustrated and I'd like to ask for all your help.
Here is the problem I've encountered:
I've 2 full football matches (90 minutes) downloaded, and dragged into 2 new .pds files respectively. Let's state the name of the matches are game A and game B respectively.
I'd like to make a single video called "funny moments" and use footages from the 2 videos.
For game A, I'd like to use the footage [5' 00" to 5' 10" and 8' 00" to 8' 10"]; and
for game B, I'd like to use footage [3' 10" to 3' 20' and 6 10" to 6' 20"].
What I've done is that, after I cut out the footage in game A and B respectively, I've saved all of them and closed all of them.
Next, I opened game B .pds file, copied footage [3' 10" to 3' 20' and 6 10" to 6' 20"], saved game B .pds file and closed it.
Then, I open the game A .pds file and paste those copied footages from game B .pds file into game A .pds file, after 8' 10" (game A), and saved game A. pds file.
However, when I checked game A .pds file for preview, I found that the content and the timeline of the footages I copied from game B to game A has changed, meaning that in game A .pds file, it never shows the same footage as in game B .pds file.
What have I done wrong?
- Is it because I didn't clicked "yes" when powerdirector asked me "would you like to merge your project's media library files with the current media files in the library? Should I click "yes" or "no" when I opened a new .pdf file?, OR
- Is copy and paste not the right method to merge different footages from different videos into one single .pds file?
Please help:)
Many thanks!!!
