Apply Filter to Browser Clips Post-Edit

Hi,
I'm finishing a 4 hour training video project and am now doing the colour correction, but it is taking forever. I understand that I can apply a filter (such as colour correction) to my clips in the browser and they will be corrected for new sequences.
If I'd known this before I started editing the massive project months ago, I would have colour corrected then. But I didn't.
So I was wondering if I can still fast-track my colour correction without re-editing? I tried colour correcting a browser clip and then copying pasting an edited sequence that referred to this clip, but it didn't update in the new sequence.
Any ideas or cheats to get this to work and save me valuable time?
Thanks in advance.
Will

open the corrected sample clip in the Viewer window (with the Filters tab displayed)
now, in the timeline, select all the clip instances to which you want to apply the filter
select and drag the filters you wan to apply from the Filters tab in the Viewer window onto the selected clips in the timeline
some other ways of achieving the same thing:
drag filters from the Viewer into the Browser and apply them from there
create a new bin in the Browser and drag a selection of filters into it ... rename the filters alphabetically in the order that you would wish them applied, then drag the whole bin onto a clip in the timeline to apply all contained filters in the given order
copy a clip (cmd-c) with a selection of applied filters and then use Paste Attibutes >> Filters (opt-v and then tick the Filetrs checkbox)) to apply all contained filters to that targeted clip(s)

  • Wow ... How to edit Event Browser Clips in Your Events

    Maybe it's just me, but this seems very useful.  I recently saw a discusson on the "Open in Timeline" command.  There's not a lot of documentation on it, but if you can use it to open an event browser clip in the timeline.  The video and audio of the clip are detached from each other.  Hafken and some others have noted that you could use this feature to sync audio to the video if there were sync problems.  I agree. 
    But it started me thinking ... what else could be done to the clip.  I took the Blade tool and cut off large amounts of the clip off the start and end then deleted the ends.  I then applied a couple of effects with pronounced amounts so I could track whether they "took" in the event browser clip or not.  To my surprise not only did the clip change in start and end and duration due to the Blade tool use, but also the effects remained.  I used the Left Arrow at the upper left of the timeline window to back out of the timeline edit as if I were backing out of a compound clip, and then clicked on the clip in the event browser.  All the edited changes I had made were now on that clip.  It had changed the length, start and end points and the nature of the video, etc ... Now that clip was a part of my event browser without having to render/share it and import the rendered version to get a clip I wanted. 
    I know many have asked about how they could get just the parts of the clip that they wanted and make that the clip that remained in their event browser.  We know we can save segments of a clip as favorites, but they are still all in the same clip.  So we cannot simply drag those segments onto the timeline.  It seems the Open in Timeline command can be used quite well to change the clips in the event browser to be just the parts that we want to keep in the event browser (you might have to duplicate the clip to edit out the multiple segments).  Furthermore, we can add processing to them and have them "saved" to the event browser for future use as building blocks.
    Is it just me ... did I miss this functionality all along ... or is this something that is really useful?

    I agree it can be a useful feature in certain circumstances. The most obvious to me being the audio/video "sync" and creation of "subclip" equivalents.
    I haven't tested it yet, but if you can put content from the timeline into an empty Event Browser compound clip, that could also be very useful, allowing an easier way to reuse content across projects as opposed to copy/paste from/to projects. I wonder what would happen if you paste content from a clip that is from a different Event.
    I know many have asked about how they could get just the parts of the clip that they wanted and make that the clip that remained in their event browser.  We know we can save segments of a clip as favorites, but they are still all in the same clip.  So we cannot simply drag those segments onto the timeline.
    Actually you can do this using favorites. After you have marked your favorite sections, in the Event Browser, you can just "Show Favorites" (control-F). Now all the favorite sections look like separate clips which you can individually edit into the timeline (either via keyboard or drag/drop).
    I think using favorites/keywords to identify the parts you want to keep is preferable to the Open in Timeline use-blade-tool approach; even though it is non-destructive regarding the actual media on disk, it is destructive in the sense that you no longer have access to what you remove unless you re-mport it. In most cases, it is just better to hide that unwanted media rather than make it gone forever.

  • Why is the SmoothCam (smooth cam) filter not applying to an exported clip?

    I have a clip that required some masking (which my graphics guy did on his PC). After importing the masked clip into FCP, I can't get the SmoothCam filter to apply to it. SmoothCam works great on the original shot from the camera (an MXF file), but not on the clip after it was "tweaked outside" of FCP.
    Does anyone know if SmoothCam has a limitation on what types of files it will work on (ie only raw footage files, MXF files, etc) or is there perhaps some metadata in the raw file that's needed for SmoothCam?
    We had tried exporting a smoothed version before I gave it to him for masking but he couldn't open it on his PC (don't get me started on that! haha).
    He did a wonderful job on the masking (using AfterEffects) but the clip still requires the SmoothCam. And SmoothCam is working just fine (I can still apply it on "raw" clips). But when I try to apply it to this "outside exported" clip, it just doesn't do anything...no error, no indication of analyzing the clip or even trying, nothing at all happens.

    I apologize. I posted this question a little prematurely. After looking through the FCP manual, I found this quote:
    +Note: The SmoothCam filter can be applied only to clips that refer to QuickTime+
    +media files. Also, the SmoothCam filter compensates only for the original video+
    +within a QuickTime media file; the results of filter and motion parameter settings are+
    +ignored. Make sure filters applied to a clip are ordered so that the SmoothCam filter+
    +is applied first.+
    I decided to post this reply in case anyone else came across this issue. Basically, it appears that SmoothCam will only work on QuickTime files (.mov I guess?). My graphics guy had made the file as an MP4 (again..don't get me started I opened the his MP4 in QT and re-exported it as a .mov and SmoothCam is analyzing it right now! So all is well.
    Sorry for the almost unnecessary post. Feel free to comment to expand/clarify my findings.
    Thanks!

  • Multiclip editing: applying filter to a certain angle

    Hello to all!
    I have my multiclip sequence. It is made up of angle A and angle B. I've already finished to edit it. Now I want to apply a filter (let's say a color match filter) to angle A. I want this change to propagate to all A angles in my multiclip. How can I do this? If I apply the filter to angle A, I can see it in the viewer, but nothing change in my multiclip...
    Thanks in advance!
    D.

    Once the clips are moved to the timeline they become somewhat independent from the master clip. To apply a filter to an entire angle (in an existing sequence), select the first occurrence and apply the filter to it. Copy the clip then select all other occurrences of that angle in that sequence (command click each one) then select paste attributes and tick filters.
    It's a bit of a chore and can cause problems if there are already filters applied to the first clip. If this is the case turn off the other filters before you copy the clip (then reactivate them), they will copy over but will not be active. Existing filters will not be erased when you paste attributes as it adds to the existing filters.
    Hope this helps.

  • Post subject: cannot apply filter to the report element

    Hi All,
    I have a report that has checkbox Input Controls. when the user is viewing the report and try to manuplate the input controls its throwing an error saying
    cannot apply filter to the report element: DP0.DO1e5
    I tried to do the same with an admin account still its showing the same error but when when I edit the report its not throwing the error. The problem is with the View mode
    Thanks

    Not sure why this is but deleting the input controls in the edit mode and re-applying works sometimes.
    Thanks,

  • How do you apply an EQ filter to multiple clips at once?

    i need to EQ a VO and rather than apply the filter to each clip serparately, is there a way to apply one filter to multiple clips at once?
    thanks
    carl

    apply your eq effect to one of the clips and adjust settings as required, then select every other clip that you want to apply this eq to, and then drag and drop the effect (from the viewer) onto one of those selected clips ... it will apply to all those selected.
    another way, if its the only effect on the clip, would be to apply and adjust the effect, select the clip with the applied effect and press cmd-c to copy, then select all the other clips you want to add the eq to and press opt-v to paste attributes ... in the window select audio filters (only)

  • Applying one video filter to multiple clips

    How do I apply just one video filter to multiple clips on a timeline in FCP7? "Copy and paste attributes" does not give me the control to select just one filter to apply, for example there is a color corrector and sharpen filter in the copied clip and all I want to paste is sharpen.

    Double click on a clip on the timeline that has the sharpness filter with the settings you want to apply to additional clips.
    When that clip has loaded to the viewer, click on the filters tab. You will see a list of all the filters you have applied.
    Now, on the timeline, select all the clips you want to apply that filter to (you can hold down the Command key while clicking on the clips to select multiple clips).
    Once the destination clips are selected, move your cursor to the Viewer window Filters tab display, and click down on the Sharpness filter and drag it to any one of the selected clips on the timeline.
    It will be applied to all clips.

  • Can a filter be applied to a video clip over time?

    I'm interested in graduating a filter over a video clip. Is that possible? Say, for example, I want to blur a very sharply focussed clip at the beginning and have it last for two seconds, then progressively weaken until only the sharp footage is viewable again. Is such a thing possible with FCE4?
    I'm thinking that I'd have to split the clip and apply the filter on the piece that needs it, but I'm not sure about the transitional part, the part that goes from blurred to sharp.
    Any advice on this? I'm not even certain of what that technique is called

    Hi(Bonjour)!
    With FCE 3.5 and later only:
    Apply the filter to the clip.
    Double-click the clip in timeline to open it in viewer.
    You can put keyframes for filter's settings in filter tab.

  • Few values of report column do not display in report while applying filter

    Post Author: anuragg11
    CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
    There are 6 drill filters applied on the report to filter out the report column data. Few values of the report are not displaying in the report when using drill filter. Same issue is with report filter too. If filters are removed then values are appearing in the report. We are using version BO XI R2 & Java runtime JRE 1.4v. It doesn't look issue is with Java version because only few specific data of the report column are not shown in the report when using filter on the data. Example: One of Report data column contains below values: 24.2, 26.9, 120.1, 230, 274.9, 275.8, 333.2 Report is displaying all these values when there is no filter on any data. But report doesn't display data when applying filter on 274.9 or 120.1 howver filter on other values 24.2, 26.9, 230, 275.8, 333.2 are working fine.

    Hello,
    I think i know what your problem is.
    Although in table view your 2 requests combine perfectly and show separate results in pivot view BI unfortunaterly adds them up.
    One work around would be to go in your criteria add in each request a dummy column. This can be obtained the following way:
    1. click on a column to add it in the criteria (it doesnt matter which one)
    2. go into the edit formula of that column
    3. delete the formula and in its place write 'Dummy Column 1'
    Do the same for the second request by adding a "Dummy Column 2'
    Now the Pivot Table should also show up correctly
    Let me know if it goes well or if you have any further questions,

  • Can PE3 synchronize two video sources for post edit AB roll?

    In PE3, is there a way to synchronize two digital video files (AVI) to create a AB roll type post edit.  My two captured video files seem to have different frame speeds or frame durations.  How do I align and frame match 2 video sources?  The situation is a 2 camera shoot.  How to best create an AB roll edit of the 2 videos sources with audio from one video file as the common element?

    Wes,
    Armed with Steve's article, you should be able to do what you want.
    I've got a question, and maybe a suggestion to address the frame-rate problem early on, to help solve that problem without a lot of fiddeling. What are the two frame-rates? G-Spot will tell you exactly, if you can not find this in Properties. If the source files are DV-AVI, they should be of the exact same frame-rate to begin with, but if one is off a bit, I'd convert the non-DVD spec one to match. First place I'd try this would be to simply Interpret Footage in the Project Panel. If that does not work, then Windows Movie Maker can do this for you, or you can use other conversion tools to get them to match. I use DigitalMedia Converter, but it's not freeware. Getting the two sources into perfect sync in the beginning will go a very long way to achieving success.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    [Caveat] I do not have PE3, only PE4, but I think that this will apply to your version.
    [Edit] After reading Steve's article, the one thing that I would do (after establishing sync) to assist me in editing multi-camera would be to set the Video Track Display to show all "frames" and the expand the height of each of the two Video Tracks (VT's), so that they occupy most of the vertical real estate in the Timeline. Then, I'd zoom in on the horizontal display of the Timeline, so that I could see fairly clearly, each frame. This basically makes the Timeline like a detailed Sceneline, but keeps you in Timeline Mode. Because you do not have the Multi-camera Mode that PrPro does, you will not be getting anything but your upper Video Track footage in the Program Monitor. You will be viewing the footage ON the Timeline. This WILL necessitate a lot of horizontal scrolling on the Timeline, but is doable. Then, when you wish to be using the footage from VT1, you will cut out (Sissors Tool) the overlaying footage from VT2. I'd personally arrange my main footage (like the main Audio Track in Steve's article) on VT1, and my "cutaway" camera's footage on VT2. As VT2 takes prescedence over VT1, you can leave VT1's footage pretty much alone, and just cut the footage on VT2. I would use Cross-dissolves on the Head and Tail of the the "cut" Clips on VT2. Remember that if you use these, you will want to make sure that the cut has come where you want the scene on VT2 to absolutely start, or end. The Duration of the Cross-dissolves will determine when the scene either becomes 100% visible (Head), or 100% invisible (Tail). Also, remember that Dip-to-Black on VT2 takes the image on VT1 to black, hence my use of Cross-dissolves.
    Using this method, also allows one to do a bit of nudging of the Clips (cut from the original) on VT2, to compensate from any loss of sync. Though you could possibly use this to adjust for the differences in framerate, I'd still try to get the footage as exact, as is possible, to start - a lot less work that way. Also, once the "holes" have been cut into the footage on VT2, you can start to use the Program Monitor much more.
    As Steve points out, PrPro makes it easier by locking Tracks and a Multi-camera dual monitor, when in Multi-camera Mode.
    This was exactly how we did it with film, except that we had to splice in black leader, where the cuts were made, and could not keep our VT1 footage intact, as we can with an NLE and video. Since we were dealing with sprocket holes, we had spiked gears (sprockets)  on a "sync block" and once we'd get the alignment right, would physically flip down a guide, that would "lock" the film to those two rolls of film to the sync block. Even though it sounds tough, when you read it, it's really not, and so very much easier, than it was with film.

  • Applying filter to 'Other Users' has stopped working (v1.0.0.15.57)

    With no apparant reason (or changes to my workstation), the apply filter feature to limit 'Other Users' has stopped working. The problem began on the day that SQLDev failed to display the navigation frame.
    I've got the nav frame back, but the filter on 'Other Users' still doesn't work.
    Can anyone tell me where the filter entries are stored?
    Oh, what's worse, the initial display of 'Other Users' does not include the entire list. Today the 'Show more/All users' failed to expand the list to all users. One of the users not initially displayed owns files to which I need access. (The solution was to stop and restart SQLDev - but that is a pain is the a$$.)

    Editing preference files is not supported. Doing so can corrupt the settings and cause SQL Developer to run improperly.
    Okay, having gotten that out of the way, let me see if I can help you get this sorted out. The filters are stored inside the preferences.xml file, located under jdev\system\oracle.onlinedb.11.0.0.37.42.
    The first step is to back up this file. Once you have done that, you can try to remove the filter info. The preferences in the file are stored as keys and values. Search for the key with the text 'ConnectionOptions'. Under the value element associated with this key, there should be a filterMap element. This element contains all of the navigator filters. Each filter will look like this:
    <Item>
    <Key>&lt;others>@local</Key>
    <Value class="oracle.jdeveloper.cm.dt.browser.SchemaFolderFilter">
    <filter>
    <Item>FOO</Item>
    <Item>SYS</Item>
    <Item>SYSTEM</Item>
    </filter>
    <visibleObjectsOnly>false</visibleObjectsOnly>
    </Value>
    </Item>
    In this case, this is a filter on the Other Users folder. To clear the filter, remove the entire item element (that is, delete everything between and including the <item> and </item>.
    This should restore the navigator filter back to its initial state (that is, no filter).
    Let me know if this doesn't work, and I'll come up with some other things to try.

  • Selecting a column in Answers report based on user prompt/ apply filter

    I need to do the following in OBIEE Answers report (version 10.1.3.4.1):
    1) Think of a simple table with dim TX_type and some measures like month_jan, month_feb, month_mar
    so the fact table looks like (column names) tx_type, month_jan, month_feb, month_mar
    2) I need to select the measure column based on a user dashboard prompt, prompt populates a presentation variable var_month = jan or feb or mar
    3) I need to select the correct measure (one of these month_jan, month_feb, month_mar) and then apply column filter based on the dim TX_type to split the values of these into multiple columns for report. So the report may look like (in Answers)
    Sales , Tax, overheads
    where Sales may be defined as sum(month_jan) where rows have TX_type = 'sales'
    where Tax may be defined as sum(month_feb) where rows have TX_type = 'tax'
    where overheads may be defined as sum(month_mar) where rows have TX_type = 'overheads'
    IF the user selects jan
    IF user selects Feb then the 3 report columns are based on month_feb and likewise for month_mar
    I cannot use column selector option as the report column further apply filter in column filter definitions in Answers...
    4) When I try to build the column filter using a presentation variable (var_month), the presentation variable is not getting populated in the column filter.
    For e.g. IF var_month = 'jan'
    THEN month_jan (let us assume the logical column name is month_jan too)
    ELSE month_feb and so on...
    However, the var_month always shows 0 in the IF clause. If we used a repository variable instead, it works fine. But since repostory variable cannot be changed on the fly (by user prompt) it is not usable.
    We cannot change fact table defintion....and we have 12 measures column and about 8-10 different colum filter based report columns using this measure.

    Hi shyamvaran,
    have you thought about a SQL statement in the prompt, something like:
    SELECT
    case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Jan' end
    FROM "Subject Area"
    union
    SELECT
    case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Feb' end
    FROM "Subject Area"
    union
    SELECT
    case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Mar' end
    FROM "Subject Area"
    union
    SELECT
    case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Apr' end
    FROM "Subject Area"
    etc...
    Use this to give you the 12 values for your months then give the prompt column a presentation variable name and set a default value in the 'Default To'. Also set the same default value for the filter.
    A couple of points:
    1. If you're transforming the presentation variable from 'Jan' to 'month_jan' you may need to edit the syntax for the filter column (not using the dialog box).
    2. If you're transforming the behaviour of a dimension / measure column in the report, have you specified the syntax correctly, e.g. sum('@{pres_var}')?
    Hope this helps,
    Justin

  • MobileMe Galleries not posting edits

    I am posting edited images into a MobileMe Gallery from Aperture 3.
    When I have created a gallery from scratch or am drag-and-dropping additional images, they edited images are not posting, but the unedited masters.
    They edited images are in .TIFF format. Will .TIFFs not post to MobileMe?

    What you have to do is publish at least one photo from Aperture using the MobileMe icon. Then you'll need to go to me.com and sign in. Go to your MobileMe galleries and select one of the albums by clicking on it once. There are a few icons along the top-center of the browser window. The icon that looks like a pair of sliders (some people say light switches) is the settings icon.
    Click on that icon and choose Aperture for the "Syncs with" setting.
    You will have to do that with any of the albums that you want to sync with Aperture.

  • Copy Video filter to multiple clips

    How can I copy the color correction filter all the clips?
    I can add the filter to all the clips by selecting them and going to Effects>Video Filter> Color>color correction and the filter show up in every clip. But when I adjust the white using the dropper it apply it only to the clip I have selected or have double clicked if all are selected.
    I can Modify>copy filter> 2 ahead, but how do I apply that color correction to all the clips?
    Thanks

    FCP Forum probably better spot for this one.
    Anyways it should work across the board, that said, however, unless the clips are all pretty much matched well, color correction settings for one clip will not be the same as other clip, what I usually do is save the general settings as favorites, drop them on a clip then check each clip for any further tweaks
