wow, it took a while to get back to this--free time has a way of
evaporating....
inside "nightcomesin" there is a "layouts" folder but no "order" file and
no "clips" file
in another folder, "nci," there is a "clips" file, containing the numbered
folders, which apparently contain the individual frames of one set of clips
I created
there is also a "layouts" folder containing 3 separate files, as well as,
in the nci folder, not in either of the subfolders, an "order" file
a couple of hours later....well, after telling me it couldn't load the set
of clips i found, it loaded them, and i followed poundle's instructions on
what to do to turn them into a usable video, but when it came to
file>encode clip as, when i tried to do this i got a message saying i
didn't have permission to use the files and so i couldn't encode them. I
hope i saved the layout and files, but it's dinnertime.....will check into
this again, hopefully before another couple of months have gone by.
Thank you for your kind asistance in threading the LIVES labyrinth!
