Importing tapes from devices on LifeFlix v3.6

featured blog

Archive your tape footage seamlessly with LifeFlix v3.6's import workflow.


Tapes contain scenes which are segments of footage from your tape. If the tape you are archiving footage from has segments of footage, LifeFlix v4.2.5 will create a scene for each one within your tape.

Scenes will also be automatically named after your tape’s assigned name from the import interface. If you named your tape “Vacation 1998”, all your scenes will be named “Vacation 1998 - 1”, “Vacation 1998 - 2”, etc. and will follow a numerical order in the order they are captured from your tape device.

Scenes can be reorganized by clicking and dragging a scene above or below another. Scenes can also be deleted by selecting the “File” option at the very top of your display and clicking the “Delete” action. Lastly scenes can be duplicated by clicking and dragging a scene and releasing it over a different tape. The duplicated scene will still keep its original name.

  • Drag either end of the yellow in/out points. These points will determine the new beginning and end of the trimmed footage.
  • Click “Trim” to finalize the new duration of your footage.
  • Click “Cancel” to discard your edits.

Note: Any scenes that have been trimmed can be reverted by opening them in trim mode again and setting the in/out points to their original positions.
