Hi hakko504,
I want to contribute adding something for Q07: What does the first lines of the .d2v file mean?. (By the way, "lines" is plural, so the title of the question should read "do" instead of "does"). ;)
----------------
The second line defines the number of video files included in the D2V project file, and equals the number of the following lines defining the location of those video files, before an empty line.
Each one of these lines is made up of 2 parts. The number indicates the lenght of the path name in the same line. Then we find the absolute (not relative) path of the video file. As we are counting only the number of characters defined in the beginning of the line, we can use directories and files with spaces in their names.
If we need to move the video files to another location, we can rewrite these lines using the new path, but we must change the length of the path name, or the parsing application will fail.
-----------------
Thanks for your effort in compiling a FAQ, something I know is quite boring. :D
