You can add a video to each flow in your project. You can also follow these steps to reload videos previously added to the project that Dorico Pro can no longer locate.

Flows with missing videos show a warning icon instead of the video icon in the flow card in the Flows panel. This can happen if you send a project to someone else without the video file.

Prerequisite

  • You have added at least one player to the project.

  • Playback is activated in the current project.

Procedure

  1. In Setup mode, in the Flows panel, right-click the flow to which you want to add/reload a video.
  2. Choose Video > Attach from the context menu to open the File Explorer/macOS Finder.
  3. Locate and select the video file you want to add.
  4. Click Open to open the Video Properties dialog.
  5. Change the settings as required.
  6. Click OK to save your changes and close the dialog.

Result

The selected video file is added to the flow and is shown in the Video window. A video reel icon appears in the flow card in the Flows panel, beside a timecode indicating the combination of the Video start offset and Timecode start.

If you reloaded a video, all your previous settings are retained.
