1st Tip

The tip on this page says that you can select clips by shift clicking and when you
dump them in the clip viewer they will be in the order that you shift-clicked. This
is untrue because shift-clicking will select the two clips selected as well
as any others in between them. I haven't found any evidence that there's any way
to shift-click or ?-click to get the clips to land in the order selected.

3rd paraqgraph not counting bulleted items

The paragraph descibes a 5:20 speed or 170 frames, but splits it into
a 2 seconds, 15 frames fadein and 2 seconds, 15 frames fadeout. The 15 frames should
be 25 since 2(2 sec x 30 frames + 15 frames) = 150 frames
while 2(2 x 30 frames + 25) = 170. Or you could cahnge the 5:20 and 170 frames to
5:00 and 150 frames.

1st and 3rd paragraphs

I believe that the headings "Best Performance" and "Best Quality" should be reversed.
As it is now, Best Perf describes how to get a good-looking disc w/ less time, and
Best Quality the reverse.
