5 To overwrite the original file in the video application, do one of the following:

as the original file.
• In the Waveform Editor, choose File > Save.
Importing video and working with video clips
Insert a video file into a multitrack session
In the Multitrack Editor, you can insert video files to precisely synchronize a session with a video preview. When you
insert a video file, its video clip appears at the top of the track display, and its audio clip appears on the track below.
You can move a video clip independently from the audio clip containing the original soundtrack. To instead keep such
clips synchronized, before moving them, select both: Ctrl-click (Windows) or Command+click (Mac OS).
Note: A session can contain only one video clip at a time.
Related video and audio clips (select both to keep them synchronized)
1 In the Multitrack Editor, position the current-time indicator at the desired insertion point.
2 Choose Multitrack > Insert File, and select a video file in a supported format. (See “Video file formats” on page 25.)
3 When you finish mixing audio for the video, export a mixdown, and import it into your video application. (See
“Export multitrack mixdown files” on page 136.)
To quickly edit audio from a video file, choose File > Open. This technique is great for soundtrack editing that doesn’t
require a video preview, or for readapting soundtracks for audio-only mediums, such as radio or CD.
