  • Clip List - special window shows list of clips. Clip - this is a special BD element that connects Video, Audio, Menu and Subtitles in the one track. There are several clip types according to the BD specification: Main Movie, Slideshow, Audio, Menu and several more. KITe allows you to create any type of clip using Clip list window in the user interface. Clip creation is step 2 in BD authoring process.
