Watch side by side and decide
- Choose the video you want to inspect with the left / right arrow keys.
- Press Space to play or pause the selected video. You can also control playback by clicking the video.
- Switch to the other side to inspect the second video too.
- With the video you want to use selected, press Enter or click the keep this button.
This decision rejects the other video. The clip you chose stays; when Duel closes, you continue working with it. It isn’t automatically added to a folder. If you want, you can place it in a suitable folder later with the 1–9 keys.
The folders for the clip you kept don’t change. The rejected clip goes to the Rejected group, just like a video you rejected with R; it’s removed from its folders and shoot lists. The video file isn’t deleted from disk.
If you don’t want to decide, close with Esc or ×. If you rejected the wrong video, you can undo it with ⌘Z after returning to the main screen. ⌘Z doesn’t work while the Duel screen is open.
