Automatically stop at end of clip on time line

Dear All,
im using fcp ( final cut pro) as playback server. I creat run down on time line, The problem i m facing, it continues playing after the desired clip finished. I want it to be stopped on the last frame of the played clip. ( do not play next one)

You won't find an option that plays only a selected portion in the timeline without using the in/out - play in to out option. That's the way it was designed. The only other way to make sure you can do it is to make separate timelines for each clip.

Why CS4 freezes when drag clips to time line ?

Hi, I am using CS4 whenI grab and drop all the clips at onece on the time line most of the clips at the end freezes. The clips in the start of the time line plays ok on time line and but when it reaches blank clips, CS4 seems freezes and I have to select CTRL+ALT+DEL to getout which will distroy all data on time line. I am using Dell Precision T7500, 2.4GHz Proc, 12GB DDR3 RAM with ECC, Nvidia Qudro FX 3800 with 1Gb memory, RAID 5 sys with 3 600GB, SAS HDDs(but shows as only one big HDD, ie. 1.09 TB total in C:\ and my data and project/scratch disk data saved in USB connected external HDD. All my OS and Prgrams saved in C:\ drive. I would really appreciate for any advice I can try to get rid of long lasted problem...Ur help is much appreciated. Thx.

You have made a giant mistake in setting up your disks like that. Your currently have:
1. A gigantic 1.09 TB raid5 for OS & program, which is very fast (around 170 MB/s transfer rate) of which you use about 40 GB.
2. A very slow USB drive that is only suitable for backups (around 20 MB/s transfer rate).
What you should do is:
1. Get a new Samsung F4 320 GB disk for OS & proagrams ( around € 30) or better. The F4 gives the best bang-for-the-buck.
2. Use the raid5 for all your other requirements, projects, media, media cache, etc.
3. Use the USB disk for backups and possibly for exports,
You will likely get transfer rates around 120 MB/s for 1, 170 MB/s for 2 and 20 MB/s for 3.
This € 30 investment will increase your performance significantly.
To paraphrase Armstrong: "A small step for man, a giant step for mankind", would tramslate into: "A small investment for you, a giant step in your performance".

Clips on Time Line Moving forward

I have video on V1 and photos on V2. When I delete V2 photos from the beginning of the time line all of the photos from the right of the time line move to the left. I cannot find a way to stop the other photos from moving. Also If I delete a clip from V1 there's no problem. All other clips stay in place. Only V2 moves.

Sounds like you performed a 'ripple' delete instead of a 'lift' delete.
If you have a full sized keyboard, the smaller DELETE key above the left arrow performs a 'ripple' delete, moving all clips further down the Timeline to the left to fill the gap.
The larger DELETE key above the \ key, performs a 'lift' delete. The selected clip will be deleted but leave a gap.

Problems with movie clips in time line-program keeps quiting

Not sure if I love this new iMovie version. I have imported many clips with my Sony Digital Hi 8. No problem with past versions. Everything went good until trying to put the clips into the time line. Everytime I try working with the time line and the imported movie clips the program quits...every time. Is this normal. Its getting pretty frusterating.
Thanks for any help.
Shane

I feel your pain in that the same things are happening to us. My wife is trying to edit many video clips imported from a Panasonic PV - GS39. iMovie crashes constantly when trying to work with this particular project. I have successfully edited a project that consisted of mainly still pics with only a few short video clips thrown in. I've tried many of the suggestions from this discussion group (QT plugs, trashing prefs, etc...) with no success. I'll keep trying for a solution though.

How do I move a compound clip from time line to an event in event library

How do I move a compound clip made in the time line into the event library to store it for latter use?

With *no other* clips selected, you can create a New Compound Clip (right click and select from popup) in the Event browser; Copy the compound clip in the storyline; double click new empty compound clip to open it in its own timeline and paste the copied compound clip. When you go back to the storyline, the compound clip in the Event browser is updated with the newly pasted compound clip item. If you want to uncompound the stored clips, when in the New compound's timeline, right click on the pasted compound and select Break Apart Clip Items... The only problem you run into if you break items apart is if you have Effects applied to the storyline compound clip, you will lose those effects because the "new" compound in the Event browser will not have those effects and you can't copy/paste effects back into the Event browser, only items in a timeline.

NO Option/Drag to make a copy of a clip in time line

Sorry for what may be a very basic question but in several other programs that I use, pressing Option while dragging a selection will make a copy of the selection and place it where the mouse is released. Does Premiere have something like this for dragging and copying a clip in the time line?
Cris is Bliss

Alas, Premiere has no such drag-'n'-copy option. The closest you can get is using Ctrl/Cmd+C to copy your clip instance in the timeline, and then positioning the CTI where you want the copy to appear and pressing Ctrl/Cmd+V to paste. Be sure your tracks are targeted properly before pasting.
I, for one, would like to see this option in CS5... do what the cool kids do and make a feature request

Clips on time line are not playing at right time.

I dragged my movie clips and photos onto my timeline, but when I play the movie back the clips and photos are not playing at the time they are placed on the timeline. What do I do? Thanks.

Hi
TimeLine in iMovie - any version - doesn't behave as in other video editors as FCE/P or Premiere.
Here each new video-clip or photo snapps to the one to it's left. One can't fix them in Time else putting in "Dummy" clips in between.
If they still don't playback in a continous way - there can be several problems
• free space on Start-up hard disk low - I never go under 25Gb free space
(free space on other second/external hard disks - doesn't matter)
• iMovie pref file might have been corrupted - close iMovie, trash it and re-start iMovie
• Use of strange video and photo and audio file format might also do this - iMovie HD6 wants
video - streamingDV as from miniDV tape Camera via FireWire
photos - .jpg and .png
audio - .aiff 48kHz 16-bit (or from Audio-CD) - NO .mp3 or direct from iTunes

Bloated clip on time line

In the picture above, I have imported a series of clips shot on two Canon cameras. (1) XF305 and (2) XF105
Problem - clips in timeline for XF305 = 2hrs 45mins in Video track No1 but on Video track 3, the clips from XF105 = 12 hours +. The latter plays back in real time. The timelinefor Video 3 in my view should be approx 2hs 45 mins
Any suggestions how ro fix? I am seeking to undertake a multicamera edit.
The clips shot in 35Mbps 1920 x 1080
Thanks
Dessie Lowry

I beleive there is repeated clips on Video track 3 ...seems to be the problem...

1 hour clip in time-line goes gradually out of sync

Hello,
I captured a one hour mini-DV tape to a G4 Powerbook as one clip in FCP 4.5. As it plays in the timeline, it gradually goes out of sync and eventually goes way out of sync. Why would this happen? The tape itself plays fine in the camera and as it was captured it appeared to be in in sync all the way through. Thanks.
Jonathan

Mini dv does not lock the audio to the picture, so over a period of time you'll get sync drift. Check to see that your sequence settings for audio match the camera's. FCP defaults at 48k. if you shot at 32k (12 bit), than on a long capture your audio will drift out of sync. You can create a sequence that is 32k, that might help but it looks like you'll have to move the audio track possibly in sections to get it back into sync.

Jumpy Video over imported audio clips on time line.

I have faltering or jumpy video occurring only where I have imported music. this has never happened before. It happens on all music even aiff.
I need help, cant finish last DVD in a sequence of five.

Hi Lowstone and welcome!
Are any of those audio files imported from iTunes?
That would produce the symptoms you mention if the tracks were copy protected (Get Info in the file menu will tell you).
The workaround is to burn those tracks to a CD, re-import them from that CD into iTunes, save them as AIFF files, and import them into iMovie when they should work fine.

How to reclaim spare space back at the end of my clips on the time line

When I have edited stuff on the time line I find that through moving clips around that I have an empty space after my collection of clips that I have arranged. How do I reclaim that empty space back so that where my clips end so does the time line.
I have tried saving the project and reopening it but this does not seem to do anything as I still have the space left.
Any help would be gratefully received Thanx ahead of time.

Control click on the empty space and, on the drop down menu, click on Convert Empty Space to Clip. Then, delete the clip you just created.
If the empty space is at the end of your movie, you can do the same as above. But, if your playhead still continues moving past the end of the movie, then expand your time line as wide as possible and check down your time line for little bits of clips left over from editing, and delete those. Any audio that extends past your video clips at the end of the movie should be trimmed back as well, even if you have muted them.

Problem with Video Time Line in CC

I have encountered a problem with the video time line panel in CC.
When importing a clip, the time line panel remains on top of the video image window.
As before, the image window does not automatically resize to float above the time line panel.
I cannot resize the clip image panel to make more room for the time line.
I have tried to reset Photo Shop to the original state without success.

Are you using a docked workspace? What zoom? Is hardware acceleration working properly? What system? What footage? Screenshots? Much more info is required...

Time Line Marker Not Moving in Playback

New to Premiere Elements 10
After I put video clips on time line then edit the clips adding titles and transitions the time line marker won't move when I play back video clips.
Video monitor shows video playing but red time lime marker is not moving on time line.
I know I clicked on the wrong button somewhere but I don't know where to look.
The Help has a lot of info about the the Time Line but I can't find anything about its movment.

Hi, Golferaliday. Premiere Elements has its own forum, which is here:

and you'll usually get better, faster answers to PRE questions if you ask the video mavens over there. Good luck!

How to insert time line

In iMovie 10 how do I insert a time line reference. In the attached photo I downloaded a movie file in which the time line shows up. On the 2nd photo which is my clip the time line does not show up. Thanks.

Hey gator12345,
Thanks for the question. The markers you see in your first screenshot have time references for the start of each clip. Because your second screenshot is one long clip, that is why you do not see (or have the option to add) a reference point. You can split the clip to add time references to the thumbnails.
Timeline
The area in the iMovie window where you create your movie by adding and arranging clips and making all your edits.
Each clip in the timeline is represented by a thumbnail or series of thumbnails.

Recapturing Time line with HD resolution

I have my original footage imports as HD 1920x1080 in the bins. But I edited on a time line setting of 720x480. Can I recapture my clips of time line with 1920x1080?
When I change the setting to HD or using EDL, all my footage, shrink to 33% and the frame ratio is wrong. Is there another way to bring the footage to time line, using EDL for example, so the ratio and size match the original captured bins?

Create a new sequence with the correct format preset.
Open your DV timeline, select all the clips in the timeline then COPY them
Go to the new sequence timeline and PASTE all the clips into it.
The clips will likely look wrong. This is due to the DISTORTION FCP added to make them fit into the DV timeline.
Select all the video clips, right click and select: Remove Attributes>Video Attributes>Distort
This will return all the clips to their original dimensions.
