In the COCKPIT, click on UPLOAD CLIP. This can be done using either the dashboard or the menu bar. You can use BROWSE LOCAL HARD DISK to open a browser window and select a clip directly on your PC that you can then upload by clicking on the "Open" button.
In the next step you can undo this selection and delete the video clip. CONTINUE takes you to the METADATA editing screen where you can adapt them. SAVE METADATA saves your entries. Click on the START UPLOAD button to upload the clip. Once the upload is complete you can decide whether to upload a further clip.
