What do I need to do when I start the sequencer. I do not have any sequences stored in my computer and when I start the program it wants to load media files and I just don't understand what I need to do.

I want to build my sequences in A virtual world before I hand my lights in 08. please help !!!!Ouch

We need to add a "getting started" section to the wiki...
 
Title: This is the name of your sequence
 
Author: This is your name (optional)
 
Media AV File: This is the music or video file (.wav, .mp3, .wma, .avi, .wmv, .mpg) that you will be sequencing the lights to.
 
Picture: This should be a picture of your house (.bmp, .jpg), preferably one taken at night.
 
Choose "Create"
 
After the audio file is processed you will have a blank grid.  You can add channels to the grid by left clicking in the blank black area to the left of the grid.  A "Add New Channel" dialog will appear where you can name the channel and assign the network, device, and channel ID and then save it.  Repeat for as many channels as necessary.  Should you want to rearrange the channels just drag and drop them in the channel bar.
 
You may then use the tools to set up your event timings and place events onto the grid (keyboard shortcuts are handy here... refer to the wiki).
 
At some point you will want to "draw the lights" (d key).  This allows you to place lights on top of the picture you selected earlier to see them in the playback visualizer.

I've added a new page - Aurora Sequencer Walkthru.  Mostly just  the info you have here, but it's a starting point.
