Virb Edit - tagged highlights, auto create etc

Hi,

Anyone got some insight as to how tagged highlights work?
Up until now, I've been experimenting with the auto-create fundtion...and it's useless for what i need. It doesn't capture the activity that I've been filming...namely that of motorsport. So...I've been wondering what this highlight function does exactly, and how do i use it. I'm assuming that i can add highlights, and then save the video (?) then use that as the source to auto-create..and then magically it will use my tags to create something interesting?
Is that what is supposed to happen?
Also..when i add a highlight...for how many seconds does it follow that highlight? Say i have a 10 second activity and I add a highlight at the start of it...will it only capture 6 seconds...would i then need to add another highlight mid way?

Also...I'm assuming that as this is my only option (that of auto-create) to show my video of tagged highlights...can i create my own custom length of video? At the moment it seems that the longest option is by selected the 'journey' theme which gives me about 2 minutes.

Sorry for all the questions, but as there is no user guide...I have to start somewhere.

thnx.
