Split edits
First Claim
1. A method to edit time based streams of information, the method comprising:
- displaying together a first indicia of a first time based stream of information and a second indicia of a second time based stream of information, the first and second time based streams of information being correlated with each other in time;
displaying a plurality of edit point markers together with the first indicia and the second indicia, the plurality of markers defining a first selected amount of time of the first time based stream of information and a second selected amount of time of the second time based stream of information, the plurality of markers being adjustable in response to user input so that the first selected amount of time is different from the second selected amount of time; and
editing a third time based stream of information and a fourth time based stream of information according to the plurality of markers to include the first selected amount of time of the first time based stream of information and the second selected amount of time of the second time based stream of information in the third and fourth time based streams of information respectively.

Abstract
A method and apparatus is described that is related to split editing. An indicia of a first time based stream of information is displayed at a source media. An indicia of a second time based stream of information is displayed at the source media. This is followed by an editing of the first time based stream of information and the second time based stream of information together in an operation that uses no more than six edit points between the source media and a destination media combined. The editing is performed such that the selected amount of time of the first time based stream of information differs from the selected amount of time of the second time based stream of information, and the destination media includes a third time based stream of information.
