There may be frames in a movie that you wish to remove. For example, there would often be a period at the end of a movie that just shows BB TestAssistant recorder being switched off. If you are producing a product demo, it may be a good idea to remove these unwanted frames and have the movie stop before this point. You could achieve this by selecting the range of frames at the end of the movie to delete and using the Delete Frames function.
To delete frames from a movie:
Select either a single frame or a range of frames. For more help on selecting frames see: Selecting frames.
On the Player main menu,
select Edit and then Delete
Frame(s).
Or
On the Edit toolbar click
the Delete Frames button:
Inserting Frames and Pauses
The insert frame function creates one or more duplicates of the currently selected frame. The effect of this is to create a pause in the movie, which could be used (for example) to ensure that specific events are synchronised with the appearance and disappearance of text boxes.
Select a single frame.
On the Player main menu, select Edit and then Insert
Frame(s).
Or
On the Edit toolbar click the Insert
Frames button:
In the Insert Frame(s) window input the number of new frames to insert or the length of the pause in 1/1000ths of a second and click ‘Ok’. The duplicate frames will be inserted after the selected frame.
Note: if you insert a pause at a point where a sound is playing, you will be given a choice of either inserting silence into the sound (to keep it in sync with later events in the movie) or leaving the sound unchanged. You indicate this with the 'Insert silence into sound track' checkbox.
