: All Clips placed on the track will playback using the component bound to the same track.

Attention: You cannot bind the same component to multiple tracks.
A warning as shown in the image above will appear in the Console if a component is bound twice.

Creating a clip

: You can add a new clip to the track by right-clicking on the blank area of the Mana track -> [Add Cri Mana Clip].
You can only play one clip on a Mana track at a time. Therefore, multiple clips cannot be stacked.

- If you want to play the movie from the StreamingAssets folder, please set the movie file to Movie Path only.
If a Timeline asset with a movie file set to Movie Data is packed into an AssetBundle, all Movie Data will be extracted into the memory when the Timeline asset is loaded from AssetBundle.
- Be aware of the memory usage if there are multiple Movie Data.
- The memory usage will be the size of the movie files set in "Movie Data" multiplied by the number of files placed in the Timeline.
