BetterAssetPool｜Windows 免費體驗版
使用說明
========================================

【正體中文】

1. 安裝與啟動
----------------------------------------

1. 如果取得的是 ZIP，請先完整解壓縮，不要直接在 ZIP 裡執行。
2. 建議把整個 BetterAssetPool 資料夾放在本機磁碟的固定位置。
3. 雙擊資料夾內附帶的 EXE 即可啟動。

免費體驗版不需要輸入序號。
程式會在 EXE 所在資料夾建立字卡、音效、預覽快取、設定與 Log；請勿只把 EXE 單獨搬走，也不建議直接從區網資料夾執行。


2. 第一次使用 BetterAssetPool
----------------------------------------

免費體驗版同時支援 DaVinci Resolve Free 與 Studio。

第一次在這台電腦使用時：

1. 如果 DaVinci Resolve 已經開啟，先儲存專案並完整結束 Resolve。
2. 開啟 BetterAssetPool，讓程式自動準備 Resolve 連線元件。
3. 重新開啟 DaVinci Resolve、專案與時間線。
4. 回到 BetterAssetPool 插入一個字卡或音效進行確認。

這項設定只需要完成一次。之後日常使用不限制 BetterAssetPool 與 Resolve 的開啟順序。


3. 免費體驗版包含的功能
----------------------------------------

- 加入與移除 Text+ 字卡。
- 加入與移除音效。
- 設定插入影片軌、插入音軌與插入快捷鍵。
- 將已選取的字卡與音效插入時間線。
- 字卡或音效重疊時，自動裁切原有素材並保留正確殘段。


4. Text+ 保存限制
----------------------------------------

- 免費體驗版只保存單純的 Text+ 文字樣式。
- 不支援保存 Compound Clip 或 Fusion Composition。
- Text+ 若包含動畫或額外 Fusion 節點，加入免費版後只保留單純文字樣式，不保留完整動畫或其他節點。


5. 免費體驗版不包含
----------------------------------------

- 素材庫匯入與匯出。
- Media Pool 直接插入模板。
- 完整 Fusion 動畫、Fusion Composition 或 Compound Clip 保存。
- 正式版的其他素材管理與預覽功能。


6. 常見問題
----------------------------------------

無法連接 DaVinci Resolve：
- 確認 Resolve 正在執行，而且已開啟專案與時間線。
- 等待數秒，BetterAssetPool 會在背景重新偵測連線。
- 如果是第一次使用，請依第 2 節完整結束並重新開啟 Resolve 一次。

無法加入字卡：
- 確認時間線上的素材是 Text+。
- Compound Clip 與 Fusion Composition 不支援保存。
- 帶有動畫或其他 Fusion 節點的 Text+ 只會保存單純文字樣式。

無法插入素材：
- 確認目前時間線存在。
- 確認插入的影片軌與音軌編號正確。
- 確認 EXE 同層 `audio_sources` 內的受管音效副本沒有被刪除；音效加入面板後，原始來源檔案即使被移動或刪除，仍會優先使用受管副本。

需要協助時，請提供：
- Windows 版本。
- DaVinci Resolve 版本及 Free／Studio 類型。
- 完整錯誤畫面截圖。
- EXE 同一資料夾內的 `BaoCardCut_trial_test.log`。

BetterAssetPool | Windows Free Edition
Usage Guide
================================================================

1. Installation and Launch
----------------------------------------

1. If the download is a ZIP, extract it completely. Do not run the app from inside the ZIP.
2. Keep the entire BetterAssetPool folder in a fixed location on a local drive.
3. Double-click the included EXE to launch the app.

The Free Edition does not require a serial number.
It stores title cards, sound effects, preview caches, settings, and logs beside the EXE. Do not move only the EXE by itself, and avoid running directly from a network share.


2. First-Time BetterAssetPool Setup
----------------------------------------

The Free Edition supports both DaVinci Resolve Free and DaVinci Resolve Studio.

The first time it is used on a computer:

1. If DaVinci Resolve is already running, save the project and quit Resolve completely.
2. Open BetterAssetPool so it can prepare the Resolve connection component.
3. Reopen DaVinci Resolve, the project, and a timeline.
4. Return to BetterAssetPool and insert one title card or sound effect to confirm the connection.

This setup is required only once. BetterAssetPool and Resolve may be opened in either order afterward.


3. Free Edition Features
----------------------------------------

- Add and remove Text+ title cards.
- Add and remove sound effects.
- Configure target video tracks, audio tracks, and the insertion shortcut.
- Insert selected title cards and sound effects into the timeline.
- Automatically trim existing title or audio items when an insertion overlaps them.


4. Text+ Storage Limits
----------------------------------------

- The Free Edition stores only plain Text+ text styling.
- Compound Clips and Fusion Compositions cannot be saved.
- If a Text+ item contains animation or additional Fusion nodes, only the plain text style is preserved. Full animation and extra nodes are not retained.


5. Not Included in the Free Edition
----------------------------------------

- Asset library import or export.
- Media Pool insertion templates.
- Full Fusion animation, Fusion Composition, or Compound Clip storage.
- Other Pro asset-management and preview features.


6. Troubleshooting
----------------------------------------

Cannot connect to DaVinci Resolve:
- Confirm that Resolve is running with a project and timeline open.
- Wait a few seconds while BetterAssetPool retries the connection in the background.
- For first-time setup, follow Section 2 and restart Resolve once.

Cannot add a title card:
- Confirm that the timeline item is Text+.
- Compound Clips and Fusion Compositions cannot be saved.
- Text+ items with animation or extra Fusion nodes retain only their plain text style.

Cannot insert an asset:
- Confirm that a current timeline exists.
- Confirm that the target video and audio track numbers are valid.
- Confirm that the managed sound-effect copy under `audio_sources` beside the EXE was not deleted. After a sound effect is added, moving or deleting its original source does not prevent the managed copy from being used.

When contacting support, provide:
- Windows version.
- DaVinci Resolve version and whether it is Free or Studio.
- A complete screenshot of the error.
- `BaoCardCut_trial_test.log` from the same folder as the EXE.
