Adjusting playback speed of clip selection

I have a 4 minute portion of video that I want to give a "fast forward" look to. It's boring if viewed in real time. How is this done? Also, why can't I find the search feature to see if anyone has already asked this? Thanks.

'Search' is actually diasabled due to some 'technical issues' of the board
iM08 offers no effects anymore, you have two options:
download for free iMovieHD6

Adjusting Playback Speed of Individual Audiobooks

I just upgraded to a Touch. With my 60 GB Video I could adjust the playback speed for an individual audiobook file (M4B) by pressing the middle button of the click wheel and cycle through the title, picture, rating, playback speed, etc. How does one do that with the Touch? I've figured out how to set the default for Audiobooks in the settings but I can only rate books while listening.
Also, "Faster" with the touch sounds considerably "Faster" than with earlier iPods. Just my imagination?
Thanks.

Adjust slide speed, adding clips to pane.vs media

I have two problems.
1. When i add clips to the clip pane, after importing from iphoto, the images appear to zoom themselves, vs when i add photos from media section.
Whats going on? Do i need pictures in the clip section of imovie or can i do it thru media section?
2. Once i have made my clips adding from photo ( in media tab), the clip is added to the clip pane, what i am hoping to do is to decrease the speed of the slides in that pane, they are a little too fast. how do i do that? is it possible?
Thanks!

With the media browser open, select your clip in the timeline, and then click on "Show Photo Settings". There you can control the Ken Burns effect, zooming, and duration. Ken Burns requires some zooming so that the picture can be scrolled around for the effect. If you aren't using the Ken Burns effect, you can also lengthen the clip duration by dragging the right edge of the clip to the right in timeline view.

Can I adjust the speed of my video clips?

I would like to use slow motion and fast motion in the movie I'm making with iMovie '08, but I cannot figure out how. I am positive I was able to adjust the speed of clips in iMovie '06, but I just can't find where/how to do it in iMovie '08. Have I lost my mind or has this option been eliminated in iMovie '08?
And as a bonus question, if it has been eliminated, WHY?

You can within iMovie HD. You can't from within '08. (You can pre-edit a clip for fast or slow motion externally.)
And as a bonus question, if it has been eliminated, WHY?
It is not so much a question of why it might have been deliberately eliminated but a question of how to add it to iMovie '08. As has been said hundreds, if not thousands, of times already, this is an entirely new application editing in an completely new manner. Motion changes require re-rendering of the file to use it in a project. iMovie '08 does not do any rendering until the project (i.e., which is merely a set of instructions) is actually completed. In case you haven't noticed, none of the third-party special effect "plug-ins" are compatible with iMovie '08 either. Your best bet is to either use iMovie HD (v6.0.4 available free online to iLife '08 users). It is either that or learn how to create such effects externally with other applications like the JES Deinterlacer (free) or QT Pro ($30).

How can I slow down the playback speed of selected parts of a captivate video?

Hi everybody,
I'm pretty new to Captivate and although it offers some great tools, there is something that I just can't get to work:
I'm creating a video tutorial about how to use a website i'm working with so I've tried using "Automatic" ("Demo" mode chosen) recording option which is recommended for this type of video. However, the video recorded has a different playback speed than the amount of time I recorded. This means that some of the slides have a quicker playback speed than the way I recorded, thereby not leaving enough time to show the given feature.
The recording mode with the most "true" playback was "Full motion". However, I would still like to be able to slow down selected parts of the video, but can only find guides on how to slow down the entire presentation.
Can you please advise me on how to slow down only selected parts of the project? If this is not possible in Captivate, please advise me on which video editing software (where you can slow down the playback speed on selected parts of the video) is compatible with Captivate 5?
Thanks!

Thank you. Andrew Kramer's Video Copilot video, which I somehow managed to miss, was very helpful.
I had a 79 second clip which I precomposed and enabled time remapping. But I have 12 places where I need to slow down the layer. After a while, I was runing out of room to add more keyframes using the method promoted in many videos and instruction sites (grab the last two keyframes, including the end frame, and drag).
In reality, you can add keyframes wherever you like and you can adjust them however works best within the existing timeline without messing with the duration, etc.
Much appreciated.

Adjusting speed of clips

Just a quick question,
If I adjust the decrease the speed of a clip on a timeline, it pushes all the footage after it forward.
This is a bit of a pain when editing to music as it knocks everything out of sync.
The method I use is to copy the clip to another timeline, adjust the speed then bring the clip back into the sequence.
I was wondering if anybody knew a quicker way to do this on the one timeline?
Thanks

That's good... or do the speed change in the viewer and then use the replace edit - F11 to drop it on the same space as the original clip.
Or -- just do it at the END of the sequence.
Either way it can sometimes be a pain. If I'm trying to do these after I've already edited, I like the viewer technique.

How do I adjust the speed of an audio clip only in Preimer Pro CC?

Need to adjust the speed of a short audio clip so that it begins at zero, and slowly comes up to normal speed. Anyone know how I can do this?

I don't think you can.

How do i adjust iTunes playback speed on my mac ?

How do i adjust iTunes playback speed on my mac (OSX 10.10.2) ?
I'd like to play podcasts at 1.5x, without running them through a separate script.

I have not see mention of any way in iTunes itself.
Changing playback speed in iTunes - https://discussions.apple.com/message/11432266 - primarily for audiobooks but if you read the whole thread there is mention of ways to do this with other media.
You can also look into stand-alone applications such as AmazingSlowDowner.

HT3176 How can the slow motion playback speed be adjusted on Apple TV (pause and clicking right/left)?

I am looking to adjust the paused slow motion playback speed of Apple TV. On one of my Apple Tv's when paused I can click right or left to view tv in frame advance (or one second advance) on a different Apple TV there does not appear to be any advance even after multiple clicks. But, it will jump 10 seconds when paused and left or right is held down as it should.
Third gen. (A1427) Apple TV Software version on both 7.0.3

Unfortunately with that speed you are not going to have a good experience with HD streaming. I would make sure everything is set to stream SD. Go into the settings - iTunes Store and you can switch there for any purchases/rentals made through them.
If you use Netflix (or other streaming sites) go into your account(s) and see if you can switch to a lower quality stream. I know Netflix has that in place.

Is there a way to adjust the speed of podcast playback in iOS 5?

In earlier versions of its, I could play podcasts at normal speed, half speeder double speed. As I listen to many podcasts, I enjoyed the ability to listen in the faster mode to save time. Now, after upgrading my iPad to iOS 5, it sounds like all audio podcasts are playing in only a slowed down mode with no control to adjust the speed that was found in earlier versions. I mean, I even have this control in my first generation iPod touch!
Am I missing something or was something left out of iOS 5?

From every thread that I have read about this - and there have been plenty of them - I have not seen a definitive answer on this. The feature seems to be missing from the iPad as bizarre as that may seem. I know that I cannot find it.

Adjusting the speed of live font

I have my text typed in and the effect I chose in live font but when i adjust the speed slider it just extends the length of the clip not the speed of the effect. The effect is very slow right now, any idea on how I speed it up?

it just extends the length of the clip not the speed of the effect.
Make sure that the purple effect track is selected (click it once) before changing the speed in the Inspector.

Timeline shifts when I when I slow or speed a clip

How do I stop the entire timeline from shifting when I change the speed (from the Modify menu)? If I make the clip slow motion, it enlarges and every track shifts to the right. I just want a particular clip to enlarge and everything else in the timeline to stay put. Help?

In FCP 7 you can turn off the timeline rippling effect, in earlier versions you can't.
What I used to do (prior to FCP 7) was to select and copy the clip to be adjusted, move to the end of the timeline, paste the clip at the end of the timeline, adjust the speed to where I am happy, then trim the speed adjusted clip so that it is shorter than the original (by dragging the right end of the speed adjusted clip to the left), copy that and paste it back over the original clip, adjusting its duration to fit the edit.
Hope this helps.

Playback speeds up intermittently on first scene when played after build

Hi
I have a problem with playback on apple dvd player after completing the build? When I play the authored project on apple dvd player after the build, after clicking on the play button in the main menu, the first scene (about 1 min. long) playback speeds up intermittently-normal speed then fast for a second then normal then fast-jumpy I guess might describe it. This only happens on the first scene with all the other scenes after this point in the timeline playing fine. I placed 2 new clips (different assets-scenes) to replace the first scene & the same issue happens with different asset clips being used in the same position (first) in the track timeline.
The scenes I used are pans of a running deer, which play fine anywhere else in the track timeline except the first position. When I play the project it's fine in simulator mode & in the project itself...this only happens after the build when playing on apple dvd player from VIDEO_TS folder. This is a test project for some footage so it's only 10 minutes long with bit rates at 5-6 ave. & 6-7.4 max.
-2 pass VBR-best motion.
Any ideas on what is going on?
I'm using DVDSP 2 with Jaguar 10.2.8.
Thanks for any help.

Della:
Not a clue about the problem, sorry, but can "imagine" a workaround just to fool the problem.
You must have a PLAY button that connect to that first scene (first chapter in the track, I guess). If you connect that button to the second chapter (just to try) that plays fine or again behaves as it was first?
If that way plays fine, you can add a "false" first scene (i.e. one second of black exported from FCP) and connect the PLAY button to the real first (now second in the track) chapter.
I told you, it's just a workaround to have in hand in case your dead line gets close!!

FCP7 HELP - Exported quicktime mov plays differently than what I edited on the timeline. The playback shows the clips with ins and outs that are different than what I set in the clips when I edited - some are too early and the clips don't playback

Please help ASAP.
Specs: IOS 10.6.8
Processor 2.4GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3 -- Everything is edited, sourced, and stored on an 2TB external hard drive to make things go faster.
Editing with FCP 7
When I export the sequence I edited with quicktime, the playback video is very different from what I edited on the timeline. The playback has the clips with ins and outs that are way off than what I cut, and some of the clips don't show at all or have changed transitions. However when I play in the timeline in FCP, the sequence is fine, just the way I cut it.
The source of the clips was one long .mov that I cut into clips for the timeline. Everything has gone smoothly but the exported .mov is just so different.
How can I get the time codes of the clips to be the same in the exported .movs? I just want the quicktime .mov to represent my edit exactly.
This video is due tomorrow - if the solution is too time consuming, can I play within the FCP player window and Log and Capture?
Thanks,
MV

What is your source material? Is it H.264? FCP does not work correctly with that material.
Click on a source clip in the FCP Browser, and once selected, type Command + 9 to see the item properties for the clip. Either report those properties, or take a screen shot of the item properties, and post that here.
Next, click anywhere in your timeline, and then type Command + 0 {zero} to see your Sequence Settings. Either report those Sequence Settings, or take a screen shot of the Sequence Settings and post that here.

FCPX - instant playback of video clips

Have just downloaded trial FCPX in order to speed up the importing of HD clips onto my Macbook Air - works a treat!
However I now need to know how I can instantly playback the video clip full screen size and at the same time see the timer, as well as FF, PLAY, PAUSE, STOP and BACK controls so I can easily and quickly play certain parts.
Many thanks

Tom, the fact is I'm not sure.
What I am looking to do is simply play back video clips from my camcorder as soon as they are imported to the laptop - I have no need to edit them.
When I play the clips, my clients need to view them on a large screen or projector in the room we are working in. I attach the large screen to the laptop via an Apple miniport to VGA (sorry not RGB) adapter, then a VGA cable to the large screen.
(I plug in speakers into the laptop for sound if the large screen / projector does not have speakers...)
In an earlier reply you mentioned that the functionality I am looking for is not possible with one monitor, hence me describing in more detail about the use of a second screen / projector in the hope that might provide a solution.
Thanks again
