Clips shift in and out points after render (Dissolves messed up too) Urgent

Hello all, I have a frustrating and urgent problem.
I'm working with DV NTSC footage at 23.98 fps, shot 24pA and captured with the advanced pulldown removal from a dvx100.
The problem arises when I am rendering my footage from a color correction, etc, the in and out points of my shots change and the shot seems to shift. The cut points don't change, but the shot shifts position within them, almost as if rendering has caused final cut to use the slip tool on these and move them ever so slightly forward or backward.
This problem is also effecting my dissolves, causing them to start to dissolve then suddenly jerk into another part of the clip and then back to the shot that it is transitioning to.
I have tried outputting a QT movie of my timeline (in order to color correct that instead and avoid a render), but as you may have guessed, this only results in a QT movie with all of the above problems.
It is very similar, if not the same, as the problem described here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8096178&#8096178
I'm under a deadline and any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks all,
Nathan

I've had that happen before. Crazy as it sounds, I "solved" it by laying a large video file over the top of the timeline (covering everything) then brought the opacity down to 0%. Go figure but it worked; everything straightened out and rendered fine.
Ghost in the machine for sure.

  • Setting In and Out Points for Render

    Hi everyone!
    I was wondering how to tell color to only render from and in and out point, instead of rendering for a whole clip. In FCP I take a ten minute capture, then break it up into sub-clips for each shot, and then edit some of these sub-clips into my video.
    When some of these sub-clips require correction in Color the sequence gets sent to color just fine, but when it renders my changes it renders it to the whole clip that the sub-clip came from. This takes too much time because I only need the sub-clip to be rendered, not the whole clip, because that's all I use in my video.
    How can I fix this extra rendering? Thanks in advance!

  • Shifting In&Out points after render

    After I color correct my video, certain clips shift after rendering. Anyone else encounter this problem?
    FCP 6.
    TIA,
    Heather

    I just noticed that it only happens on longer clips (ie. >30min or so). I broke a clip into 2 sections via Quicktime & the smaller ones now don't seem to have the same problem. Hmm...interesting.

  • How to retrieve a clip's in and out point?

    I have cut a clip appart and now I need to know at which frame of the clip the new clip fragment starts.
    Can someone please enlighten me on where to find this piece of information?

    Strange, if I do this at my machine, nothing happens...
    What action would this shortcut perform?
    I have created another, small, (hypothetical) case here:
    As you can see I have added the same video clip to the timeline twice:
    So in the sequence both start at frame 00:00:00:00.
    I trimmed both clips in the sequence. (BTW: What would the correct terminology for clips being added to the sequence be? Clips themselves can only reside in the Project window. Sequences may only contain links to those clips... So, just to be able to distinguish both, I'll call these links in a sequence 'clip links' here.) ...Thus, what I actually did was to trim both clip links in the sequence.
    As you can see from the thumbnails in the image, I trimmed each of the clip links at different clip positions.
    Although both clip links are of same length, I trimmed the clip link in track Video 1 to start at 00:00:00:00 while the clip link in track Video 2 has been trimmed to start at 00:00:15:07.
    Correspondingly, the clip link in track Video 1 ends at clip frame 00:00:03:05 while the clip link in track Video 2 ends at clip frame 00:00:18:13.
    These are the values I want to retrieve. After trimming I need to know exactly what is the first frame of a clip link that's being displayed.
    So I need to acquire the 00:00:00:00 - 00:00:03:05 for that clip link in track Video 1 and the 00:00:15:07 - 00:00:18:13 for the clip link in track Video 2.

  • Is there any way to lock your in and out points on a clip?

    Everytime I click outside the clip, my in and out points disappear and I have to reset them.  Any ideas?

    No way of locking them in, but once you have your in and outs set, if you hit F it will favorite that area. Then whenever you want to go back to that clip just click the favorite icon on the clip and your in and outs will be set around the favorite section.

  • Filters change in and out points?

    This is the first time this has happened.
    When I add certain 3rd party filters and/or composite a layer above my clip, the in and out points appear to change in the clip (i.e. a different portion of the clip is now in the time line.
    When I double click the clip, the incorrect portion of the clip is loaded into the Viewer window, but when I do a Match Frame, the correct portion of the clip is loaded in the Viewer window.
    Also, when the incorrect portion of the clip is loaded in the Viewer (like when I double click it to load), the current timecode display (upper right) is italicized. It is actuallly the correct timecode, but the video is incorrect and the timecode is italicized.
    I did a Save As..., created a new sequence and cut and pasted the contents of the problem sequence, and set up a new project and cut and pasted the sequence in there to see if there was corruption, but I had the same problem there. i also trashed FCP preferences.
    I have a Mac Pro dual Quad 3Ghz running OS X.5.4
    I searched everywhere for "filters changing in and out points" and "Italicized timecode" and everything else I can think of, and found nothing. Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Have you tried trashing render files with Render Manager and re-rendering?

  • Video after In and Out points Changed

    After opening up a video in the Viewer and setting In and Out points, and dragging it back to the Browser afterwards:
    1. I tried changing the name of the clip that I dragged back to the Browser, though it changed the names of the other clips in the Browser to the same name. Why?
    2. How come when you double-click on the new clip and it shows in the Viewer, it shows the In and Out points as well as the video from the original segment around it. Is this the way it is supposed to be? I thought it was supposed to just display the segment of video starting with the In point and ending with the End point.

    1. do some reading in the manual. Might try making the clip independent.
    2. Yes. I know it may seem weird, but it has some really powerful uses. Double click on a clip in the timeline, it loads in the viewer. You can then change your in and out points in the viewer and they will be reflected in the sequence. (with some limitations). If you want to "isolate" the material between an in and an out, check out "make subclip."
    This is very basic fcp stuff. Skim the manuals, explore the menus, you'll figure this stuff out pretty quickly.

  • After update all of my subclips have different in and out points

    After updating Premiere Pro CC all of my subclips now have different in- and out points. It´s hundreds of subclips and they have nothing to do with how they´ve been before. The In-Point is always the In-Point from the original Master-Clip, the out-Point seems to be totally random. So I can´t work with them at all. Can I go back to the previous version or can I get my subclips back somehow? THANKS!!

    What files do you keep on the Desktop? How many?
    Performance tip: Keep the Desktop clutter-free (empty, if possible)
    Mac OS X's Desktop is the de facto location for downloaded files, and for many users, in-progress works that will either be organized later or deleted altogether. The desktop can also be gluttonous, however, becoming a catch-all for files that linger indefinitely.
    Unfortunately - aside from the effect of disarray it creates - keeping dozens or hundreds of files on the Desktop can significantly degrade performance. Not necessarily because the system is sluggish with regard to rendering the icons on the desktop and storing them in memory persistently (which may be true in some cases), but more likely because keeping an excessive number of items on the Desktop can cause the windowserver process to generate reams of logfiles, which obviously draws resources away from other system tasks. Each of your icons on your desktop is stored as a window in the window server, not as an alias. The more you have stored, the more strain it puts on the window server. Check your desktop for unnecessary icons and clear them out.
    Keeping as few items as possible on the Desktop can prove a surprisingly effective performance boon. Even creating a single folder on your Desktop and placing all current and future clutter inside, then logging out and back in can provide an immediately noticeable speed boost, particularly for the Finder.
    And it is why Apple invented 'Stacks' for Leopard.

  • Cannot delete clips in timeline using in and out points

    Can't delete or trim clips clips in the timeline when I use the in and out points. Can't figure out this flaw. Its as if final cut does not recognize the ine in and out points. I 've been using the razor to make edits, but when a come across a flash frames and need in and out points to delete the flashframe, I'm in trouble.
    Thanks

    Hi -
    You are missing a step.
    Set the in and out points on the section you want to delete:
    Then type Option-A to select the area within the In and Out Point:
    Then press the small delete key or Shift+ Regular Delete Key and it will delete the section you've designated with an In and Out and pull up the rest of the edit:

  • Color is changing the clips in and out points

    I tried to import into color a fcp7 sequence.  The original footage are quicktime clips.
    When the project opens in color, the in and out points of the clips are not there and it gives me the beginning of the clip.
    With other footage that I ingested in FCP I don't have a problem.
    Can someone explain this to me.
    Thanks

    >The original footage are quicktime clips.
    What FORMAT of Quicktime?  Because QT is just a container that can be one of a dozen codecs.  Color ony works with certain codecs, like ProRes, HDV, XDCAM, DVCPRO HD.  If the codec is anything but those...it will have serious problems.

  • New problem/bug when I set in and out points on a clip. Unwanted automatic zoom in on clip timeline.

    Playing clips to log and set in and out points for scenes I will use later.  Something changed with the new update and I think it is a bug.  When I hit the I and O keys to set in and out points on a clip before dragging to the sequence, it zooms in on the clip timeline.  I cannot see the full clip time line unless I zoom out which is a pain to do time and time again.  How do I get it back to the way it was before?  It did not used to zoom in and out, it just marked your in and out point as it played leaving the clip timeline unchanged.
    I am using windows 7 with Premiere Pro CC

    Hi,
    Thanks for your post. I think you are using Premiere pro CS6 as the Project option is included in the file menu and in the video there is an option of project available and visible. Please update your CS6 with the latest 6.0.5 update and the issue will be fixed. The link is provided below. Please update once issue is fixed.

    You can do that in Premiere Pro CC, but not before. Drag the clips from the Timeline to a bin and then export.

  • In fcpX....how can I put an IN and OUT points in my sequence and after export a movie???

    In fcpX....how can I put an IN and OUT points in my sequence and after export a movie???

    You can't. You can't export part of a sequence. Duplicate it and remove the bits you don't want to export from the duplicate.

  • 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.
    Vince

    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.
