Adding videos to your library

- Add them as you do with audio files

Playing videos

- If you want to load a video to Scratch LIVE and Video-SL at the same time drop onto the deck in Scratch LIVE, Scratch LIVE will load the audio while the plugin will load the video.

- If you are already playing a track in Scratch LIVE and want to load a video onto it drag a video from your library onto one of the video screens. This will NOT load or change the audio playing but will replace the video being played.

- Dropping a Video file on the "set video track " button will link that video to the currently playing audio file so next time you load it Video-SL will automatically load the video again. Clicking this button while you have audio and video loaded will also associate them.

TTM 57SL controls

When you are running Video-SL group 5 on the TTM 57SL controls the plug-in, please refer to the legend on the plugin or the hardware panel in Scratch LIVE for mappings.

Effects

- Your list of effects is dependent on what your graphics card is capable of running.
- These act as a chain that is applied onto the video before the fader.
- If the effects slots are still greyed out then it has been deemed that the graphics card is not capable of applying effects.
