How do I import video into Nuendo?

When the QuickTime playback engine is selected, Nuendo can import and play back video films in the formats Quicktime, AVI and MPEG. To import a video file, proceed as
follows:
1. Select the Video Track, by clicking it in the Track list.
2. Pull down the File menu and select “Import”, then select “Videofile…” from the submenu
that appears.
This opens a file dialog, allowing you to locate the file you wish to import.
– In the lower left side of the Import Video dialog, there is a tick box named “Extract audio”.
If ticked, this will add any audio contained in the video file to a new, automatically created
audio track.
The new audio event will start at the same time as the video event, so that they are in sync with
each other.
3. Locate and select the file, and click Open.
When you import a file this way, a Clip is created for the video file and an Event that plays the
whole Clip is added to the Video Track, at the position of the Project Cursor.
