Batch export projects

I have over 100 iMovie project files I would like to export. Each project takes at least 20 minutes to process and I would love to be able to "set it and forget it" overnight, otherwise this is going to take many, many hours of my attention. Is there anyway to do this? Thank you in advance!

Are you making a DVD? I think you need to join the videos into one long video then add chapter markers then batch export the QT file with chapters.
Then you'd use a DVD authorning program like toast.
If you have 22 separate files then you have 22 separate files, don't see work around. Again if you are sharing to youtube, one big file and then use the @time tag in the description to jump to the 22 parts.
You just have too many separate files

  • Is there a way to select multiple sequences and batch export them using the same settings in CS6?

    I am a current Final Cut Pro7 user and looking to switch over to Premiere Pro CS6.  We edit approx. 100 short (15 sec.) videos daily, and then select them all at the end of the day and batch export them over night using the same export recipe for all. I have having trouble finding an easy way to do this in Premiere pro CS6, as command +E is grayed out if i select more than one sequence at a time. 
    so far, it appears that i have to select each video individually and manually set encoding recipe and export location for each....  Not only would this be terribly time consuming, but it leaves a lot of room for error and missed videos.  I thought i would be able to send all of the sequences to Adobe Media Encoder,  but i dont see that option either.
    Any suggestions/
    thanks!

    Open Media Encoder and add your Sequences:
    File > Add Premiere Pro Sequence
    Navigate to your Premiere Project and select it in the list.
    You can then select multiple Sequences from the Project (Ctrl+Click)
    and load them all at once into Media Encoder and apply
    the same encoding preset to all Sequences at the same time.

  • Can you batch export in FCP X, can you batch export in FCP X

    I work for a business and am constantly working on projects that have multiple, separate projects within the same project. because of this I do all my editing during my business day and then when I leave for the day, I used to batch export the projects and the next morning I would come into work and be able to move onto the next thing. so far in FCP X I have not been able to find out how to do that. I know that in FCP 7 you could do it obviously, but I'm wondering...does FCP X have that same capability because I can't seem to find it and I don't really have the time to waste by exporting during the day.
    Thanks for your help,
    Scotty

    Hey Scotty,
    Andynick is correct about the batch export workaround.  The way I do it is this:
    1.     Go to the Project Library
    2.     Select the first project you want to export
    3.     Go to file>Send to Compressor. (I set a shortcut -Sift>Option>C from preferences, If you need help with that let me know.
    4.     Repeat this process for each project
    5.     Go to Compressor (it will already be open)
    6.     Now here's where it gets kind of anoying, You need to choose which batch you want to make your main one. Pull off the tab on top and drag that project into your prefered batch, then close the old tab.  Now you'll have two projects in your chosen batch.
    7.     repeat that process for the rest of the batches Compressor created.  When you're done you should only have one batch open with all of your projects in it.
    8.     Submit the batch and let Compressor do it's thang.
    Things to note:
    When you send a project to compressor, it will automatically choose your default settings and location.  If you want them to be different you'll have to do it mannually or change your defaults before you begin this process.
    FUN right! Hopefully Apple will fix this so you can at least select multiple projects in the Project Library to make it a bit easier.
    If anyone has a better workflow I am all ears!

  • Batch export

    in fcpx is there a way to btach export multiply timelines from the project library, I have just done another fashion shoot and have roughly 200 timelines and if I have to go in and export each one individually this is stupid!
    in fcp 7 I could batch out multiply timelines!

    First, I would have exported each one as they were finished.  No, there is not batch export yet, but I'm sure we'll see one eventually.  Good news is that you can create your own custom Share preset.  Then in the Project Library, you'd have to export eacy one to that preset, which is fast.  You don't have to wait for each to finish, just keep exporting.  But waiting until 200 Projects are done before exporting is simply not the best workflow.  With that much bulk, even in FCP 7, I'd have exported each one as they were finished.

  • How to Batch Export Wide Still images

    Hello,
    I'm currently working on a project that uses Widescreen. I have no problems exporting the movie project to DVDstudio pro file, but when I try to Batch Export the Still Clips I took, it makes it into 4:3 size, rather than 16:9. Because of this, pictures look squished. How would I fix this since I didn't see any options in Batch Export for wide.
    I'm using Final Cut Pro 5.0.4

    As mentioned above, that is a possibility. You haven't said how you plan to use them. If quality is paramount I would advise against doing a "destructive" stretch on them unless you're moving them to a final definitive size as in web graphics. There's little enough resolution in SD video to start with.
    If you're using them in the print world they will fare much better if they are stretched within the production app. Just ignore the aspect ratio and tell it they're an inch by 9/16ths, or 16x9 cm, or whatever system you're working with.
    If you dig around in Photoshop, they have a system to identify and deal with with NTSC tall pixels, perhaps they have one for anamorphic as well. More confusing than helpful to me.

  • Batch export of multiple clips from one video in Premiere CS4

    Hello,
    I'm really in a bind and hope you guys can help me out. I have about 30 hours of video in about 30 mpg files..1 hour in each video. I need to splice out small clips from each video..anywhere from 10 to 20 clips in each and send them to Media Encoder to store as video files I can then re-use. In CS3 I can do this manually one clip at a time ..set In point, Out point and then export. This however takes a very very long time....set the ins/outs, then export, then wait, then repeat..very tedious
    In CS4 can i set multiple ins/outs for the entire video and then have premiere go to work and do a batch export? Or is there another way of doing this? I have about a week left to get this done and at a total of about 450 clips to export each 2-5 mins for encoding this will take forever...plase help!
    Stan

    It wont do exazctly what you want but.... But the batch encoding should save you some time since you can continue to work while it encodes/exports.
    Do you need to make more than one output type? Like DV, WMV, FLV... for each one? If so, I suggest this workflow:
    1. Open source file 1 in Source monitor set in and out, ctrl drag subclip to a folder in the project panel.
    2. Repeat step 1 for any other subclips needed from source clip 1
    3. When done with first source clip go into bin where you put your subclips click on them one at a time and do export/media to your lowest compressed need (like DV AVI for example); it will be added to AME queue
    4. Repeat step 3 for all subclips, then click start queue.
    5. While AME is exporting all the subclips for your first source clip, repeat steps 1-3 on source clip 2...
    When you are all done; if you need to make multiple output types for each file; Do (IN AME) File>New>Watch Folder
    Create a Watch folder for each output type you want. Then simply copy all the exported clips you want inot each of these folders and AME will process them all for you in batch.
    It doesnt do exactly what you wished for; but should save you a few buckets of time.

  • Export clips from a sequence seperately with effects as a batch export in CS 5.5

    Hi there,
    I'd like to know if there is any possibility to export all clips from a sequence/timeline seperately with all applied effects as a batch export or similar in CS 5.5.
    I know there is a chance to do that via the project manager, but a far as I know this way doesn't include the applied effects on each clip.
    Thanks for your help in advance...
    Marc.

    The only way to export a single clip with effects is to manually set up each individual export.  This applies to all version of PP.

  • Batch export of markers

    I'm brand-new to Premiere, to this forum, and to video editing generally. I'm hoping someone can help with this problem. I've created several markers for my video (an avi file). I need to export each frame associated with a marker as an image file. I don't want to do this one-by-one because there are a lot of markers and it is very tedious. Is there some way to batch export such frames within the application?
    Alternatively, I can extract the <Marker> XML elements from the prproj file and get the images using a Matlab script, if I can figure out what the time is for each marker. The elements look like this:
                <Marker Version="1" Index="0">
                    <First>100072202630400</First>
                    <Second ObjectRef="33"/>
                </Marker>
    Does anyone know how to convert the <First> value to a time in seconds?
    I should mention that I've tried the PPro Project Utility, but get unreliable results.
    Any help will be appreciated.

    For CS4 and later, you can set up each export and then do them all at once through the Adobe Media Encoder.  For earlier versions, you'll have to do each export one at a time.
    In either case, the setup for each frame is done manually.  There's no auto feature for this.

  • Batch Export Trick for Logic using Markers and XLD

    I've always wanted apple to implement batch export of multiple audio files from logic using markers as delimiters. So you can mix a concert and export it in one go without having to hang around and re-start bouncing for each track.
    Now you can do this (albeit in a two step process) using Logic 9.1 and the free and wonderful XLD!
    Just place markers in your project and bounce as AIFF (this is the only format that seems to work with this, so you are out of luck if your bounce file is going to be larger than 2GB). I suggest placing a marker at the very beginning of the project too so you first file is not called "Timestamp_0" or some such thing. You can even name the markers with the name you want each file to have, though keep in mind files will sort alphabetically of course once they are split if you have a specific order - so maybe preface them with 01, 02, 03, etc etc.
    OK - now go get XLD (the GUI version):
    http://tmkk.hp.infoseek.co.jp/xld/index_e.html
    download, install and run it. No window will appear at first. Open the preferences and choose your desired output format and options, directory, etc
    drop the AIFF file onto XLD (I've put XLD into my Finder window toolbar for easy access). When it asks you to open the embedded cue sheet, say "OK" and your markers should appear as a list of CD tracks that you can play double click to play with a player interface and preview.
    Then press "Decode" and voila! All your markers as separate audio files with the marker name, in whatever format (including the multiple formats option) you set XLD for.
    You can even edit metadata at this stage (but first consider whether your output format supports it)
    Some of the formats XLD can produce are
    AIFF
    WAV
    Apple Lossless (saves some space!)
    FLAC
    AAC
    MP3
    OGG
    etc etc
    Personally I think this is an absolutely fantastic trick and am happy to have discovered it. Hope it helps you too.

    Also, if you have gaps in the original session, put a marker at the end of the previous section and call it something like "end". Then you can uncheck all the "end" 'tracks' in the cue sheet and they wont be exported in XLD.
    Oh and it also seems XLD will preface your marker delimited files with their 'CD track' number. Useful to keep them in order, but they will probably want to be changed if you have gaps you took out with extra "end" markers.

  • Batch Exports of clips as separate files

    I've seen a lot of complaints about the "inability" of Premiere Pro to batch-export clips under their own names. There's a current thread over on the SpeedGrade forum concerning this, from someone wanting to do dailie's but exported not as a timeline but specific separate clips with their original clip names. This is a mistaken impression.
    PrPro CAN batch export clips, but not a timeline into separate clips. That's the hangup, we've all tended to look at the timeline export box.
    1) In the Project Panel, click once on any clip you want to batch-export, using the "standard" selection clicking process ... hold "shift" while clicking a second clip will select the original, that clip, and everything in between; clicking on a clip, then holding ctrl/cmd and clicking on additional clips will add just the clips you click on.
    2) Right-click on any of the selected clips, and at the bottom of the dialog box, select "Export Media".
    This takes you to PrPro's standard export box, where you can do things like (under the Effects tab) apply a "look" or a LUT of your choice to the batch (handy to standardize the look of a project) before adding to the Queue, which then takes you to Media Encoder for your export operation.
    Slick enough, actually. Not quite as easy as say choosing simply a sequence, BUT ... at least, doable. Might be easier on long projects to put clips on each sequence say into a bin for that sequence. Cleaner, also.

  • Batch Export now possible?

    I read in an old thread, that it was not possible, but how about in ver. 10.1.+?
    I am testing ver. 10.1.2 now and for me it would be very important.
    My workflow in FCP 7.3 is:
    I put many individual clips in the timeline, color correct them all via copy/paste them and create a batch list and export all the clips in the batch folder individual with their original filename.
    That means, I can do something else or even have it run over night if there are many.
    This is the only way I handle high volume of clips.
    I know in the early ver. 10.0. xxx it was not possible.
    Hopefully, Apple added this option.
    Thanks

    You can queue up multiple projects and/or clips during the export process. In other words, you can export one project and then another, without waiting for the prior project to complete.
    What you can't do is select multiple projects and then hit the Share button and get multiple output files.
    Compressor will, of course, process batches; it's a primary reason for having the program. But you cannot select multiple files in FCP and send to Compressor.
    Here is a tutorial that illustrates a  kind of faux batch export process.

  • Batch Exporting Clips from timeline in Final Cut Pro X

    So ive looked at many forums and many sources and I know this isn't the first time this question has been asked.....but I was
    wondering how I would be able to batch export clips from the timeline (about 100 or so) to use as Content for VJing (live media manipulation). Is there a simple way to acomplish this in Final Cut Pro X... I have heard remours that you can cut multiple clips in Quicktime Pro 7 but im not sure how eficiant this is, I also have heard that this is allot easier to acomplish in Final Cut Pro 7. If anybody knows a simple (and quick way) to acomplish this Im all ears!

    If you want to batch export parts of your project, I believe that you'd better served by an external utility, like QTCoffee. Export your movie to Quicktime, and then use QTCoffee to create the various bits in one, er... batch.

  • Trouble with batch export from cd

    a buddy of mine put some music on my i-pod, i downloaded it into i-tunes. When i batch export music into my project it works fine. I have been trying to do this straight from a music cd. It is not wanting to recognize the songs. Am i missing something can we take songs from a cd and use them in our final cut project. i pressed command-b in browser, create new bin, select bin>batch export, drag song from cd into export window, set destination, Aiff as file type change rate to 48.0 click export. I can get it to play from the cd in the project, but i want to eject the cd and access the song of the exported or imported file.

    Just copy it to your hard drive first (preferably inside your scratch disk).
    Files on a CD are 44kHz and FCP works best with 48kHz files so it is best to select the file in the browser, go to Export > QuickTime Conversion. Select AIFF from the drop-down menu (if it is not already selected) and click Options. Make sure Rate is set to 48000 and Sample Size is set to 16, then click Ok and export the file. Import this new file into your project. Because it has the correct settings that FCP is looking for, you should not need to render it.

  • How to save a custom batch export setup

    I've always tried to figure out a way to setup a "template" for a batch export and save it. For example, you need to constantly output reference qts to a specific folder for batch processing in cleaner. Didn't seem anyway that I could figure out. Once youj've executed the batch and quit fcp, you seem to lose the ability to see that batch. I think I just figured out how to do it. Setup your batch export in the batch export window and then drag the tab of the batch export window to the browser tab for your project. It creates a tab within the browser window that seems to stay associated with the project. Did a couple of quick tests and it seems to work. You should be able to add things to a specific batch folder and keep your settings.
    Maybe there's an easier way to do this. Feel free to poke holes in this method.

    Would saving a layout in the Browser layouts do it for you? Just right click on a column to save the layout...

  • How do i change the size of a clip using batch export?

    hi, when i try and do a batch export to change my clips from a DV PAL to PhotoJpeg 320*240 sized clips the "options" button is greyed out. so all i have as export settings are the QT presets in a pulldown list. is there any way i can create my own setting? (and the also save that?)
    thx

    what i'm seeing is that
    a) selecting all files in Media Man. gives me the option to size and set codecs but not the audio off.
    b) selecting all files in Batch Export allows me to pick a format (QT, aiff etc) choose a preset (photoJpeg included) select whether to include audio and video or both but not set the size or customize the QT settings
    c) selecting all clips then "file>export>using QT conversion" gives me all options, but seem to grab only the first clip.
