Creating and editing markers – Apple DVD Studio Pro 4 User Manual

If you convert a slideshow to a track, each still clip has a marker placed at its beginning.
The markers are named the same as the still asset used for its clip. These markers retain
any pause and DVD@CCESS settings that may have been set in the Slideshow editor. If
any slides use transitions, the transitions appear as a shaded area in the timeline with a
cell marker at their beginning.
Transition indicator
You can configure the transition by selecting the clip and making changes in the Clip
Inspector’s Transition tab. If a still with a transition also has a pause, the marker for the
next clip is placed at the beginning of the transition instead of at the next clip’s start. See
and
Converting a Slideshow to a Track
for more information.
See
for more information about GOP structures, and
for information on using Final Cut Pro or Final Cut Express to add
markers to a clip.
Creating and Editing Markers
