Viewing the properties of a clip in the timeline


    Once an asset has been added to a timeline, it becomes a clip (video, audio, subtitle, or still image clip) and the Properties palette displays the relevant information about it.

    Note: A single asset can be used multiple times in a project, with each occurrence appearing as a unique clip with its own properties.

To view a clip's properties from the Timeline window:

  1. Open the timeline containing the clip (or click its tab in the Timeline window if it is already open). Adobe Encore DVD displays the timeline in the Timeline window.
  2. Select the clip in the timeline. Adobe Encore DVD displays the Video view of the Properties palette.
  3. Set options as desired.
  4. Note: The Encoded option shows the size of the clip after transcoding or the estimated size if not yet transcoded ("est" follows the name).
