A transition is a small segment of one clip overlapping with another clip, on which a special effect involving a geometrical operation is introduced.

Usually, a transition is added to connect different clips. Occasionally, you may want to insert a transition into a continuous segment. In this case, the video segment will need to be split into two segments at the selected point, and the two segments will then be connected with a transition.

Currently, the editor has the following video transitions.

* This 2D transition, Adopted Video Overlay, is added to emulate a limited function of two video tracks, since the timeline editor has only one. As such, it automatically selects the maximum transition length possible for the two applied clips, i.e., the shorter length of the two clips; while all other transitions use the same default transition length defined on the timeline option page.
