Watch side by side and decide

  1. Choose the video you want to inspect with the left / right arrow keys.
  2. Press Space to play or pause the selected video. You can also control playback by clicking the video.
  3. Switch to the other side to inspect the second video too.
  4. 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.
