Adding and applying one source filter tracks

Before you add a one source filter track, add the video track or picture track that you want to use as the source for the one source filter track.

Note that when you use a video track as a filter track's source, the original video track's data doesn't appear in the movie. All of the video track data is processed with the specified filter effect in the filter track, which also determines dimensions and position.

To insert a one source filter:

1. Drag a One Source Filter Track icon from the QuickTime set  of the Objects palette to the bottom of the track list area of the Timeline Editor.

Note: You must position the filter track at the bottom of the track list in the Timeline Editor to assign it to the top of the layering order (layer 1). (See Setting the layering order of tracks.)

2. Select the one source filter track in the Timeline Editor and display the One Source Filter Track Inspector.
3. From the Source menu, choose the video or picture track that you want to apply the one source filter track to.
4. Select the one source filter sample in the track content area of the Timeline Editor. (If necessary, expand the text track to display the samples.)
5. In the One Source Filter Sample Inspector, click the Select button.
6. In the Select Effect dialog box, do any of the following:
• Choose an effect from the list box and then, if necessary, select parameters for the effect. For information on the effects, see Setting QuickTime one source filter effects.
• Click Save to save the effect as a .qfx file for use later.
• Click Load to load a previously saved effect.
7. Click OK. GoLive labels the one source filter sample bar in the Timeline Editor with the name of the effect.
8. To add other one source filters that appear at different times in the movie, use the Create Sample tool  to create new one source filter samples. For information on using the Create Sample tool, see Adding and editing samples.
