If you want to see a preview of the video,
just click once on the little movie camera
icon, and it launches your default video

of the Export dialog), but of course it only
exports the original unedited clip, since you
can't do any editing in Lightroom 3.

Step Four:
If you want to organize all your video
clips into one central location, create a
Smart Collection to do it for you. In the
Collections panel, click on the + (plus sign)
button on the right side of the panel header
and choose
Create Smart Collection
from
the pop-up menu. When the dialog appears,
from the first pop-up menu on the left
choose File Type, from the second menu
choose Is, and from the third choose Video.
Name your Smart Collection and click
the Create button, and it gathers all your
video clips and puts them in a Smart
Collection, but best of all, this collection
updates live—anytime you import a video
clip, it's also added to your new Smart
Collection of video clips.
