Do you know how to use the files-> load files. This will put the media in the resources window under media (Window-->Show Resources-->Media). You can then create a video track (Video-->Add Track) and pull the media right on to the time line. If there is audio in your video you will need to have a video track on top and create one or two audio tracks below (Audio-->Add Track) depenin on if you are using mono or stereo sound in your media.
If you need to add the audio in later just create the video track then add te audio in later. I hope this helps. I learned Cinelerra but guessing my way through it. It was tough. Thanks P.S. One nice new thing in the latest Cinelerra is the ability to pull in non raw MOV files. You can now just pull in mpegs or avi's. This is much nicer than before.
