Can clips retain last playhead position and in and out points like v7?

Is there a setting that will enable the clips to retain the last playhead position and in and out points so that I don't have to find the place I left off at every time I go to that Clip? Basically how FCP 7 worked.

This is another area that's lacking in this great application, I'm afraid - but there are ways to keep the 'in and out' points at least.
When you have marked them you simply press 'F' to mark your selection as a favourite. Then if you click the green bar that appears, your selection will immediately be highlighted.
Alternatively, add keywords to your selection - then when you click the keyword collection in the event browser, the clips will be displayed, already trimmed.
A third way is to trim away the unwnated footage in your clip. Lets say you have a long clip and you want to make multiple clips from it. You don't want the first three seconds of the clip and you also don't want the last one second . . . (follow this carefully - it works)!
Move the playhead to your IN point and press the 'O' key (yes the 'O' key).
Now press the backspace key and your clip is trimmed to the 'in' point. Now scroll to the out point and press the 'I' key (that's right). Move the playhead to the 'in' point of your next clip and press 'O'.
Press Backspace and your clip stands on its own for all time.
(You can even mark one frame 'Out' and the very next frame 'In' and this will work - you don't lose any frames).
Sorry I can't help you with retaining the playhead position.

  • My "go to in point" and "go to out point" keyboard shortcuts are not working, and the default keys arnt either? any help would be amazing!

    my "go to in point" and "go to out point" keyboard shortcuts are not working, and the default keys aren't either? any help would be amazing!  I use these keys a million times a hour and since I have switched to cc I cant get them to work. track selection makes no difference or if there are markers on the timeline or not. 
    Anyone else feel me on this?
    any help?

    Well that still didn't make any kind of difference.  I would just do without it but I've becomes really use to it with Avid for so long.  I have to admit there are a lot of small moments like this that makes me miss Avid.  Any other suggestions? I have checked the keyboard shortcuts a few times and maybe I'm just missing something here...

  • How can I get Numbers to retain last opened position across my devices?

    I am a regular user of Numbers on my iMac (mid-2010), my iPad v3 and iPhone 5s.
    Ever since Mavericks came in and the many iWork updates that happened alongside it I have been unable to keep the same cell position in sync across my devices. So when opening one of my main spreadsheets it always opens at the top and I always have to scroll down to update my data.
    I don't remember this being a problem between iOS devices before that, it always went to the correct location. Until Mavericks I didn't sync with the Mac version as it was too clunky. They did a great job of fixing the sync part but lost this feature.
    Hope this makes sense. To summarise, my use case is that I open a large spreadsheet on any device to update it but it does not take me to my last entry, it goes to the top of the spreadsheet. That is not helpful to me, I want the last entry point regardless of idevice used to access it.
    Hope someone has an answer!
    Thanks.

  • Shortcut for moving keyframe to playhead position?

    Is there a keyboard shortcut to move a selected keyframe to the current playhead position / layer in- or out-point / work area in- or out-point?

    Aaron's suggestion is spot on, but also do not forget that you can nudge keyxframes (Alt /Alt+Shift and arrow keys) and generally snap keyframes while dragging with the Shift key pressed.

  • Batch Capture Randomly Changes In and Out Points

    I'm editing a documentary on Final Cut Pro 5.0.
    Using a SONY DSR-11 firewire deck.
    I logged sets of clips and then batch captured them. I DIDN'T select add handles in the batch capture tool. Some clips, as they're captured, change their in and out points. Sometimes by two frames early, sometimes by two frames late, and sometimes not at all. Several clips even stopped captured with an out point twenty seconds earlier than what I'd logged. The result is that I have clips with media start and media end points that are not in what I wanted. There seems to be no rhyme or reason whatsoever to this.
    Any ideas what's going on?
    Many Thanks if you do!

    Check to see if your tapes have NDF time code.
    If you play a tape with NDF TC using Log & Capture, the current time display will defaut to DF until the tape palys forward long enough for the current time field to update. It is posible to log NDF tapes as DF, in which case the timecode values can be incorrectly re-converted if recapturing.
    Also, If you initiate a batch capture from the browser, FCP will default to DF, and not be able to update the TC format to NDF duriing the batch. The workaround here has been to cue up NDF tapes with L&C, and start the batch capture while L&C is still open and showing NDF TC.
    However, upon upgrading to FCP5 last year, I found that even observing all these precautions and steps, FCP would still shorten the out point of my captured clips on NDF tapes. I was capturing a feature film that came from the UK, and so the starting time on the master was 10 hours instead of 1 hour. When the DF/NDF error occurred and shortened the out point of my 2-hour clip, it did it by several minutes instead of several seconds, because of the starting TC on the tape. In that case, I wound up adding several minutes to my out point and recapturing the end over again.
    I haven't experienced this issue lately, but it comes up every now and then.

  • Can't set in/out points on timeline

    Hello there. I have just downloaded the trial version of Premiere Elements 12, which looks like it might have everything I want in a video editor except... it doesn't seem to have ability to set In/Out points (no button exists and  hitting I/O has no affect, despite being on their list of keyboard  shortcuts). I'm clearly not doing something right. Not being able to  edit quickly via I/O/X feels like being in a car without a steering  wheel. Please help!!

    L Prickitt
    I have already pointed out to you the Premiere Elements 12 ways to trim clips in Expert and Quick - including the Expert workspace Project Assets double click of file thumbnail there to bring up the Preview Window as well as the Quick workspace maneuvers.
    I have observed that the I and O shortcuts work only after the Preview Windows is evoked in Expert workspace by double clicking the file in either Project Assets or on the Timeline. There are different considerations when Preview Windows is used and brought up in those two different ways - from Project Assets vs Timeline. You really do want to be double clicking the file in Expert workspace Project Assets to bring up the Preview Window for your trims.
    However, whether in Expert (Timeline) or Quick workspace (Filmstrip), you can drag the edges of the clip to get a trim.
    Your recent post (4) defines what you want to do.
    - Drop video, sound and voice over clips onto the timeline (either with a mouse or shortcut keys)
    - In the timeline trim the clips most effeciently (for me, anyway) by marking an In Point (by clicking on the I key) and then an Out Point (by clicking on the O key), then deleting the clip (by clicking on X or delete key).
    I would ask this. You cite prior experience in what you want to do. What program did you use - was it other than some version of Premiere Elements?
    I cannot see what you want to be done in Premiere Elements without bringing up and using the Preview Window which may be taking away the quick style that you described for getting this task done. Again, you cannot use I and O as you cite in the absence of the Preview Window.
    Please consider. Knowing the program that you worked with previously would help in the understanding on my side. I have looked at prior versions of Premiere Elements and cannot see what you describe. So, I want to be sure I am not overlooking something.
    We will be watching for further information in the hope that we can put together some sort of compromise workflow.
    Thank you.

  • How to replace a clip in timeline whilst maintaining in/out points

    Hi
    I've been working on editing some interview footage in FCPX. I have a bunch of clips put together in the timeline. Now I wanted to do some editing to the audio, which I did in Audacity. I re-imported the fixed audio and synced it with the original video clip. Now I want to replace the old clip in the timeline with the new clip with fixed audio. The problem is that when I do a replace, it inserts the whole of the new clip. Can I get it to match my existing in/out points?
    Yes I'm new to this.
    Thanks very much

    Thanks Tom. I actually figured a way to do what I wanted. In the timeline I right clicked the clip I wanted to replace, choose open in timeline, then you can just drag and replace the entire clip but it keeps the in/outs. I was sure you could do it somewhere!

  • Exporting In and Out Points

    I have my video all in my timeline, and want to put it up online, but have to do at 20 minute intervals. I did the first twenty minutes fine, but was wondering how to you export just the in and out points?
    I put an in point at about 20 minutes in, and put it out point at about 40 minutes, and after exporting, it exported the whole file. How do I export it so its just what I set the I and O at?
    Thanks!

    Make sure that the Timeline is the active window before you export and you will get just "in to out".

  • How do i get an externally loaded movie clip to inherit the playhead position of the main timeline?

    Hi Flash experts, i'm hoping that someone can help me with this annoying problem.....
    I have been approached to design a configurator for a new television product. The Application will let users specify the colours of certain parts of the product and also attach addons, which then updates a cost total.
    In the main interface i have a looping animation of the product slowly rotating around 360 degrees that i rendered in 3ds max. When a user clicks a button on the interface i need to load an external movieclip on top of the main animation so it looks as though a certain part has changed colour, this i have acheived. The problem is that when i load the external clip over the original, the loaded clip starts playing from frame 1 and i need it to inherit the playhead position of the main animation so the two layered pieces look as though they are rotating as one. I'm sure this must be possible, unless i need to approach the problem in a different way?
    I hope this makes sense,
    Any help on this subject would be hugely appreciated.
    Many Thanks
    Matt

    Hi again Ned,
    I've almost got it i think, my code now looks like this....
    on (release) {
             var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
             loader.loadClip("Bezel/Bezel_Red/Bezel_Red.swf",Empty_MC);
             var loadListener:Object = new Object();
             loader.addListener(loadListener);
             loadListener.onLoadComplete = function() {
             Empty_MC.gotoAndPlay(_root._currentframe);
    This code loads the external clip fine and i know the onLoadComplete listener is working because if i change the last line to: Empty_MC.gotoAndStop(1);
    it works. I think its just that last line: Empty_MC.gotoAndPlay(_root._currentframe); that is causing the problem?
    Many Thanks for all your help, it is greatly appreciated

  • Will play count and playhead position sync back to iTunes?

    I have a bunch of smart playlists that contain all the unplayed episodes of my favorite podcasts. If I drag these onto the Shuffle, will the play count and playhead position from my Shuffle sync back to iTunes?
    It seems like the answer is no -- this is really a one-way copy to the Shuffle, and not a "sync".

    The iPod shuffle is supposed to maintain a "played" flag for played tracks. I don't know if podcasts will work the same way as normal tracks, but I can't think of a good reason why they wouldn't. Having said that, after the iTunes 8.1 update, my shuffle's marking the wrong tracks as "played" and leaving the actually played tracks unmarked, so until the iTunes team comes up with a fix for all the bugs they introduced in that update, anything goes.

  • Is there a way to maintain synchronization of slide display and playhead position?

    Hi, I'm working with Captivate 5 and I'm trying to add some highlights to various features in a full motion recording (FMR).  Frustratingly, while I can preview the recording by dragging the playhead through the timeline, when I release the playhead, the display jumps back to the beginning of the FMR.  The playhead stays in its current position, but the slide shows me the start of the recording, not the image I'd been viewing moments before when dragging the playhead.
    Is there some way to force Captivate to display the actual image related to the current playhead position?  It's really frustrating to try to position highlights when I can't see where I'd like them to go.  :/
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    It's a workaround, but what I do is publish the movie, pause it at the point where everything is present on the slide that I want to highlight, take a screenshot using SnagIt, then add this screenshot to the movie slide where I have my FMV recording.  I place it at the top level but untick the Visible box in Properties for this image so that it won't show up at runtime.  I use this image to line up my highlight boxes and then just hide it on the Edit view of the slide so that it's not getting in the road.
    This only takes a couple of minutes to do and allows me to line up my highlight boxes perfectly, saving a lot of time.

  • Greetings, I am working in Final Cut Pro 7. In the timeline some clips show as offline. I tried going to sequence and reconnecting to media but it does not work. I can still see the video in the timeline and work with it. It just has the red box.

    If the clips are not actually missing, you could try to refresh the timeline by using cmd-0 and then going to the timeline options tab. Then select name only where it says "thumbnail display". Press ok to accept the change, then repeat the process to add thumbnails back to your timeline.

    As I can't upload CD's onto the Macbook Air, how do I keep the existing music on my iphone syn onto my new macbook without deleting all the cds on the iphone??
    Many thanks!

    Hi RaulRod,
    Are you pressing the Sync button to transfer music after connecting your iPhone or do you have the option checked to 'Automatically Sync when the iPhone is connected?'
    Have you tried manually dragging and dropping music from your library into your phone?
