Video and audio position screen

When you only want to play part of an audio or video file, then this screen is used so that you can visually (with videos) select the part of the file you want to play.   Use the Play button to play the file.  When you get to the start of where you want to the file to start, then click on the 'Set current position as start' button.  When you get to the point that you want the file to stop, then click on the 'Set current position as finish' button.  When you click on OK, the start and end times are copied back to the previous screen.

The slider bar below the video, or audio picture, can be used to quickly move to the part of the file you want to select.


File sizes

Selecting a part of a file to play doesn't alter the original file.  If you are using the Standard or above editions of this software and transferring files over the Internet, it is best to copy the part you want out of the file and create a new smaller file for faster transfer.  You can use Windows Movie Maker to edit videos and also see our recommended software page for software that would enable you to do this.
