mark in and mark out. Then drag the image to the timeline.

What is this trimmer anyway? /is confused.
That's exactly what the trimmer does. It just creates a window that let's you scrub through the clip's own timeline, mark in\out points, and drop that segment into the main timeline.

Now I feel like I must be doing it all wrong XD But the trimmer's worked for me so far. o_O
I've never used the trimmer. I have a feeling that is why I use subclips. Split my clips on the main timeline, create subclips, then drag them back on the timeline where I want them. I'm guessing that's similar to the reason for using the trimmer.
