Burning clip name into video

Hi,
I have many short clips that I'm exporting for a director and was wondering if there was a setting I could take advantage of that would help burn the clip name into the picture.
They are all timelapse clips that I will upload online as one long video.
It would help our workflow to have the clip name present because the director/cinematographer could give me feed back on specific clips instead of referring to the timecode. I thought if it is just one click away it would streamline things a bit and save the time of creating seperate titles or scrolling through the timline in reference to timecode.
Thanks in advance for your Pr wisdom.

p.s: I'm running CC

Hmmm ...I immediately thought of using the titler but you need a different "name" in each clip. Manually that would be a pita ... and I can see uses for that even with my small set-up, as for my interview and persona-stories work I frequently end up with sub-clips of this and that which need consideration for inclusion by at least one if not 2-3 other people.
If there's a way to simply burn the clip name into a proxy-like smallish outputtable file, that would be darn handy ...

Remove Clip Name from Video

Hello,
I'm relatively new to using Premiere Pro. I have a video I am preparing for use on the web. After editing and saving as an .mp4 file, when I play it, using Windows Media Player, briefly (three seconds or so) it shows the Clip Name (file name) in the upper left hand area of the video. How can I stop this behavior?
Thank you for any and all help.

Thank you joe bloe!
For at least the past four hours, I have been searching Adobe Forums, Google, and checking everything under the sun within PP! I didn't find how to disable this under preferences for Media Player, but I did open up Quick Time and the Clip Name (file name) isn't there.
If you have the time, could you share the path to the Media Player > Preferences > Disable the Clip Name. I'm using Win 7 Professional, IE 10.
Again, thank you!

Get a clip name in Video Filter

Hello!
I need to write some specific plugins, that "overprints" technical info over image. So, I get a problem - what is the best way to get CLIP name in "VideoFilter" plugin? Can I get there more technical info (that is seen in Premier's bin) ?
Thanks.

Yes, version 4 of the Utility Suite is new for Premiere Pro CS6, so the call wouldn't work in earlier versions or other products at this point.
Does the workstation with CS6 have Microsoft Visual Studio installed too? If not, then the problem is probably that you are building a debug plug-in that is dependent on the debug Microsoft run-time libraries. The other workstation doesn't have these DLL dependencies, so the plug-in can't be loaded. To fix this you could either install the debug Microsoft run-time libraries on your system with CS6, or build a release version of your plug-in (which you will need to do eventually if you plan to distribute the plug-in to other systems).

Need to split long movie into many clips to edit video

I upgraded to iMovie 11 from iMovie HD 6...it was a long wait to get audio and video editing that was at least as good as HD 6. We had some 40 year old Super 8 movies digitized and used HD 6 to split them into clips so I could edit parts that were almost black, or some almost totally blown out. I realized that this could probably be done better with 11, so purchased it, but couldn't import the HD 6 clips. Was told I had to export the whole movie as a single clip, then import into 11 and break them apart again to edit.
While I was proficient in HD 6 enough to produce some good stuff, iMovie 11 is befuddling to me, which is a surprise since I do fine with the latest iPhoto, which uses similar terms and processes. I have ordered David Pogue's book; while waiting for it to arrive, my main question is: how do I split this 75 minute movie into multiple clips for editing purposes? Apparently splitting can only be done in the project library, and apparently 11 will only let you split into 2 or 3 clips???
Thanks for any help.

First, you may not need to spit the event clips at all. You can select short bits of the long event clip and drag it into your project as you wish.
Having said that, there are good reasons to split event clips. For example, the 75 minute movie may contain many logical events that you wish to split out by date. In this case, iMovie 11 can do it, but I would not recommend it. It is a slow process and is prone to error.
I would recomment that you use a free app called MPEG Streamclip from Squared Five (google it).
To use MPEG Streamclip, drag your long clip into MPEG Streamclip.
Then, move the cursor to the "in" point of the clip, and press i. Move the cursor to the "Out" point of the clip, and press o. Then, FILE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME (or FILE/EXPORT TO DV if it is DV). Then repeat until you have done this for all clips you want.
If you know the date and or time of the footage, name your file
clip-yyyy-mm-dd hh;mm;ss
(let mpeg streamclip provide the extension). This will provide metadata that iMovie will use to put the event in the right year and month.
When finished splitting your long clip, import into iMovie by using FILE/IMPORT...MOVIE

Clip name burn-in for audio track

OK, I know about the Clip Name burn-in for video clips, which requires the effect to be applied to every clip.
What I really need is something that will do the same for an audio clip - so that I can export video which shows which audio is being used. Or, ideally, displays the clip name for a nominated video or audio track.
Does anyone know of any plugins which can do this?
Thanks

Clip name does not import with video file

I have a raw AVCHD file shot on a Sony FS-700. I imported all ~180 clips and moved them from the FCP X folder into a folder on my raid drive for use in multiple projects. The clip names at import are Clip #1, Clip #1, etc. etc. I then rename them in my finder window in their new location. The clips look great and playback great through Quick View and Quicktime. However, I run into a problem when I import them from their new location into a new event. The clip which is named 'FCP X Import' will import and be labeled 'Clip #89'.
I would like to remain naming them in Finder if at all possible. This might be a Yosemite error or just my workflow. Workflow is: I edit directly after the event with imported media from the raw file and use the 'Clip #89' first then move, then rename to 'FCP X Import', then reuse for other features (which is where the problem occurs).
Note: Clips do bring in Finder tags. For example, if I label it red the clip will retain that tag in FCP X
Thanks.

It would be quite helpful to know what format the footage is, what camera it came from.
First thing to try is this, assuming AVCHD or similar footage type from SD card -
Copy ENTIRE card contents to hard drive, not just video clips. In Premiere, Import using the "Media Browser". See if that helps
Thanks

I have old video clips in Photoshop Elements Organizer v12 for Mac. I want to divide some of those clips in Organizer. I can do that in Premiere Elements 12 and save them as "Projects" - but how do I get the divided clips back into Organizer?

I have old video clips in Photoshop Elements Organizer v12 for Mac. I want to divide some of those single clips into 2 or 3 separate clips, each shown separately in Organizer. I can divide the clips in Premiere Elements Editor 12 and save them as "Projects" - but I can't find any way to get those divided clips back into Organizer. Does anyone know whether that can be done? Many thanks for your thoughts.

What about Google Drive? And just share the folder with the family members.

Is there any way to have the clip name show up in the video

is there a way to have the clip name (kind of like a title) automatically? I do highlight videos and for the early versions I upload it with clip numbers to make it easier to identify the clips to move them around. My clip names are the same as those numbers...if I could just show the clip name when I upload the video it would save me a TON of time. Anyone know of a way to do that? Thank you!

safari remembers it's last window position when you close it. so next time you start it will open in the same position it was when you quit it last. that's the only control available. there is no other way to fix the safari starting position.

Import clips into FCP X version 10.0.8 and keep the original clip names

Can you Import clips into FCP X version 10.0.8 and keep the original clip names in the event original media folder? in version 10.0.8 it automatically allocates date / time of the event. I need it to keep the original clip name i:e Clip0100 event folder original media Clip0100. I am aware you can change the clip name to original once in FCP X, But it's the event folder original media name which I want to remain as the original file name.

Hi Tom,
Thanks for the response.
I am aware you can do this change in the Info inspector so the original clip name from camera is used in the event library browser, but it does not change the clip name in the Final Cut Events Original Mieda file. This still remains as an event clip name "2013-05-23 17_08_13". I need the original clip name Clip0100 to remain as Clip0100 at import. FCP X doesn't seem to allow this happen any more in version 10.0.8.
Cheers

Video is normal until I drag the clips down into Sequence 01, and then they are severely cropped.

Video is normal until I drag the clips down into Sequence 01, and then they are severely cropped on all sides. What setting do I have wrong?

Hi Brenda44,
Please right click on the clip in the project panel and select new sequence from clip option to create a sequence according to your clips.

I recently had some 8mm film transferred to DVD. I am trying to edit the film clips using Premier Elements 4.0. so I can reburn the films on a single BluRay disc. Some of the film clips copy into the project but others don't. I tried copying the VOB filed onto my hard drive and then changing the file extensions on the VOB files to MPEG but this was no help. Some of the VOB files contain numerous film clips but my software does not appear to be able to recognize them as such. I need to know if replacing my old Premier Elements with the new Version 13 would solve this problem or not. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

What do you have now.....
What computer operating system do you have?
We can go into the finer points of source and your intentions, but for now it would appear that you are using SD 4:3 source media to get to a HD 16:9 result. Lots to discuss in this regard.
What was given to you on the DVD disc? DVD-VIDEO 4:3 or something else?
If DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, you should expect to find on the disc a folder named VIDEO_TS. That is your target for your video files.
If you were given a DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, then all you want from it are the video files, specifically
VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VOB, and so on through that series until possibly getting to
VTS_02_1.VOB, and so on. How many files you have beyond the VTS_01_1.VOB file will depend on the size of the DVD-VIDEO.
Does the above scenario apply to you?
The alternative might be someone giving a DVD disc (data disc) which contains just the VTS files mentioned which were copied from
the VIDEO_TS Folder. So, you do not get the whole VIDEO_TS Folder, just the essential video files. Does this scenario apply to you.
I see no need to replace your Premiere Elements 4 with a later version unless you have a huge project and need a later version that will be a 64 bit application running specifically on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit computer.
Consider...Premiere Elements 4 and if you have DVD-VIDEO on DVD....
1. Place the DVD disc in the burner tray
2. Open Premiere Elements 4 and set the project preset for NTSC DV Standard (assuming you are working in a NTSC setup)
3. Go to
Get Media
"DVD, Digital Camera, Mobile Phone, Hard Drive Camcorder, Card Reader"
"Adobe Premiere Elements - Media Downloader" and its Advanced dialog.
Set the Source in the latter dialog for the drive which has your DVD disc inserted in its tray
You should see your VTS_01_1.VOB thumbnail in the "Adobe Premiere Elements - Media Downloader" Advanced dialog.
With this VOB selected, click on Get Media to get the file from there into the project.
Should work fine.
Complications may be involved if the people who processed your footage gave you something other what is described above.
Please review and consider, and then we can plan our project strategy accordingly.
Thank you.

How do i move clips from home video to roll?

how do i move clips from home video to roll?

Ahh, Ok. I actually had to go to Lynda.com to watch a training video of this highly bassackwards maneuver, but now I have it. In other words, while the intuitive thing is to make a new event to hold the clip you want and then open the old event and drag the clip into it's new event, the only way to accomplish this maneuver is to NOT create a new event, but rather, go to the clip AFTER the one you want to move, select it and then Right-Click on it and select SPLIT EVENT BEFORE SELECTED CLIP (or go to FILE>SPLIT EVENT BEFORE SELECTED CLIP). Then you wait a few seconds while the program thinks a bit (no feedback it is doing this - just a pause) and then it automatically creates a new event with the clip you wanted. Now just double-click the new event and name it something meaningful.
Thanks for your help!

Overlaying Clip Name

Does anyone know a way (or plugin) that will allow me to overlay the clipname onto the video in FCP (or FCE).
I have a rough edit that has thousands of clips that needs to be reviewed and I need to find an automated way of overlaying the name of the clip onto the video, along with the timecode.
Can anyone point me in the right direction on this, as I can't face days of manually adding the clip name to every clip!
Thanks in advance,
Andrew

Okay, I thought of a crazy solution to this.
Highlight ALL the clips that are going to be in your timeline.
Hit Shift + D and set it to make them offline. Don't delete or trash them though.
In the Canvas you'll see the big scary red offline screens but you'll also see the missing clip's name!
Now comes the crazy part. Export the offline sequence. It'll make a movie file with the red offline screens perfectly timed to your clips.
Import that into FCP.
Reconnect your clips.
Layer the offline exported clip as the top video track and set it to like 40 or less opacity.
Export the sequence.
Told you it was crazy.

How do I use just the audio from a clip without the video?

Can't remember how to use just the audio from a clip, without the video. FCP X can't select like FCP&

Edit just the audio into the timline.
