What does overwrite editing do?

• A. Adds new layer above existing media
• B. Replaces existing media at playhead
• C. Renames the clip in the bin
• D. Merges two clips

Answer: (B)

Overwriting replaces existing timeline content starting at the playhead with the incoming clip. It writes the new footage directly over what’s already there, rather than pushing the old material aside. That’s why this option describes replacing the existing media at the playhead. The other choices describe adding a layer, renaming a bin item, or merging clips, none of which capture what overwrite editing does.
