01Compression
A clip between 10 MB and 200 MB is compressed in your browser. Nothing leaves your machine until it fits. The original on your disk is untouched.
02Splitting into shots
A long clip can be split at its cuts and each shot kept as its own asset. That is usually what you want from a reference: the shot, not the reel.
03Poster frames
A clip's grid preview is a frame taken from about a tenth of the way in, which avoids the black at the head. You can re-derive it from the inspector's More actions menu at any time.
