Add Tracks
A "track" is an audio or video component of a QuickTime
movie. QuickTime movies can include multiple tracks.
- Select File | Open Movie to open the file containing the content
of the new track (this could be an .avi, .wav, .mp3, .mov, etc.file) in your
QuickTime player.
- Then choose Edit | Select All and then Edit | Copy to copy
the contents of the new track. You're now finished with this player, so close
it or move it out of your way on the desktop.
- Open a second player by selecting File | New Player. In this new
player, select File | Open Movie to open the movie to which you want
to add the new track. Move the position indicator to the point in this movie
where you want the new track to start.
- Choose Edit | Select All
- Hold the Ctrl and Alt keys and select Edit | Add.
Note that the Add command appears in the menu instead of Paste--this
indicates that you will be merging the new track into the same time frame as
the original movie, instead of pasting it in as additional material. If the
new track is longer than the original track, or is added in at a point where
it is longer than the remaining time in the original track, the overall duration
of the resulting clip will increase.
