Exporting multiple clips from timeline...

Here's the situation...
I have a two hour interview on my timeline...
The interview needs to be divided up into about 20 different clips and then they need to be exported independently.
The old way in FCP 7
mark in...
mark out...
export...
done...
*** is up with this new FCPX...
Sure... I can send to compressor and mark the in and out there... however... there is no snapping... there is no indication of where the clips start and stop.
It's just one big long 2 hour clip that I have to write down the time code if I want to find my ins and outs... totally unacceptable for this project.
Please please please can someone find a solution for this... I do not want to go back to fcp 7... I have been defending fcpx and "thinking differently" for the last 3 months...
This may be the last straw though.

Ugh!
Unacceptable.
Sorry nothing personal... but I have 80 x 2hr interviews that each need to be cut up into about 20-30 clips each...
That's 25 x 80... That's 2000 clips that i would have to compound, copy, open new project, paste, export, and delete project....
This is where fcpx loses me... and I will switch to the dark side of hating the crap out of it with all the others.
Please... don't let me drink the hateraid.

  • Export multiple clips from one timeline

    Hi,
    Is there a way to export multiple clips into separate files from the timeline. So, basically i have a time line with many clips which i need to export to individual files, not one long video. In FCP 7 I would drag all these clips into a new folder and then batch export. But in FCPX?
    Thanks!

    Of course i's  not "half baked". Just because it lacks a feature that you want doesn't make it so.
    There isn't  as NLE out there that doesn't attract  complaints from some users about its functionality in some area or other.
    Fortunately, the fully functional  trial version gives us a good chance to find out first-hand whether the design meets our requirements.

  • Exporting one clip as multiple clips from timeline?

    I've got one piece of media that has half a dozen shots on it.
    I cut the shots on the timeline.
    Is there a way I can export those 'individual' shots separately from that same sequence, or using batch export maybe?
    Or do I have to put each in a separate sequence and then batch export the sequences?
    I did simply make the cuts, drag the separate clips to the bin, and try a batch export ... but of course each separate clip, when exported, became the full piece of media (with all six shots) again.
    I've got a lot of shots to extricate from large chunks of media, so I can run them as separate shots through Color.  I noticed when I 'sent' the separate clips (though still all from the orginal chunk of media) into Color, Color couldn't process them as separate clips, kept getting confused (or it seemed like that was happening).
    Any suggestions would be most appreciated,
    Ben

    Yes!  Thank you Shane.  For some odd reason I haven't had to make sub-clips for years.  I'd forgotten all about that.  I created individual sequences, batch exported from the sequences, but was getting odd results, unpredictable.  Then I exported each clip singly, right from the original timeline ... and had odd problems.  Aha!  So I rebooted FCP ... and everything was working again.  Bad news, trying to do something unfamiliar and FCP has got itself tied in an inivisible little knot.
    Still, the subclips look like the way to go.  Coz then I can batch export ... and go do something else more profitable in the meanwhile, like now, like lunch for instance.
    Thank you Shane, much appreciated...

  • Exporting multiple clips from one sequence as separate files.

    Hello fellow editors!
    I have about 100+ video files that I want to cut into shorter clips, edit a bit and then export in a Final Cut friendly format (currently they are AVCHD mts files) to send it to my friend, who is putting the whole movie together.
    I dont want to use Final Cut for this ( I cannot, I have a windows machine) and I was hoping to work with premier CC and media encoder CC.
    There is a way of putting all clips in one sequence and then nesting each one, then you can send them to Encoder CC and it will render them as separate files - thats is just not very productive, nesting clips one by one and it takes forever for Encoder to import sequences.         
    I was wondering if there is a better workflow? I heard that Final Cut has shortcuts to do this very easily, you just click on all those clips in sequence and "batch export" them, which puts them in some place as separate, already cut files.?
    Anything? I love premier, let my feelings be justified!)

    Kevin Monahan ...
    Lucid George is right ... select one trimmed clip, File->Export->Media, you can choose whether in-out or entire clip.
    Select MORE than one clip, you get a completely different export box ...
    These two selections were "exported" from that bin created by dragging the trimmed clips from the timeline to a new bin ... I don't know what else one is supposed to do. You can't even select multiples clips and batch sub-clipping, which would at least cut the steps down.

  • Exporting multiple clips to Media Encoder

    Hi there,
    I need to export multiple clips from Premiere Pro CS4 to Media Encoder (so I can work with the footage at a lower resolution then replace with the original clips).
    Currently I am exporting each clip individually, which is very time consuming as I have hundreds of clips.
    Is there a way to export all the clips simultaneously?
    Thanks!

    As individual clips?  No.
    You might try using a Watch Folder in Adobe Media Encoder.  The Help file should have the details.
    However, the best solution is to upgrade your hardware so that the native media works without issue.

  • How to apply audio and video transitions automatically when drop multiple clips to timeline?

    If I remember OK, in previos versions of Premiere it was possible to Drag multiple Clips from project area to timeline, and apply automatically audio/video transitions.
    It was possible to configure how many video frames will be overlapped to do a default transitions (and for audio, also).
    Is it possible in Premiere CS6 to do the same thing ?  Leave me a link to documentation, or a hint, how to get this thing done.
    I have searched over the documentation, but i have not found.
    Thanks for hints.

    I believe the feature you're referring to is Automate to Sequence. In CS6, it was in the Project Menu; for those using CC, it is in the Clip Menu.

  • Is it possible to use certutil to export multiple certificates from a local client machine store, to a .p7b file?

    Is it possible to use certutil to export multiple certificates from a local client machine store, to a .p7b file?
    Scenario: We have a few legacy certificates based on some legacy templates (2012 R2). Some belong to an old SubCA (2008 R2).
    I’ve can manually export them using certmgr mmc on the local machine to a single .p7b e.g.
    cert_backupNEW.p7b. But this is not a practical solution for me and I want to achieve this remotely via certutil or some other util that comes with Windows 7 machines.
    I’ve already worked out how to run a certutil command to add the certs back into the store e.g.
    certutil.exe -addstore -f my cert_backupNEW.p7b
    Is there a way to export multiple certs to a single backup cert, or is what I’m trying to do not possible with multiple certs?
    TC

    Something like this:
    $store = New-Object Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Store "my","localmachine"
    $store.Open("ReadOnly")
    Set-Content -Path exportedcerts.pfx -Value $store.Certificates.Export("pfx","password")
    $store.Close()
    note that this command will fail, if there are certificates with non-exportable keys. You cannot export certificates with non-exportable keys.

  • Drag & drop audio clip from timeline to project window ?

    i no longer can drag a clip from timeline to the project window & then breakout the clip to mono by selecting clip - audio options- breakout to mono - now when i drop an audio clip from timeline into the project window it does not show up anywhere in the project window - did an update get rid of this function ? it was much better than having to go back to the unedited original source & start from scratch ...

    thanx for your time Jim - i understand that would be the preferred method but that was a quick fix until recently i have noticed that i can no longer do it by just grabbing the edited clip & drop it in project window so that i can modify just that portion of the original files properties - it still functions that way on a friends machine - was just kinda weird that i can't get it to work that way any more …

  • 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.

  • Exporting multiple projects from FCP timeline hangs

    When rendering multiple projects from Final Cut Pro's timeline through compressor, I get varied results. I am rendering 3 files - Apple Pro Res, MPEG-2 (VBR Highest quality for Blu-Ray), & 48khz AIFF audio file.
    Typically we will set up 3 projects for one night to render overnight (30 minutes to 1 hour for each project). In the morning when we come in compressor will sometimes show up as 90 hours remaining, sometimes it will still be cranking out on the last project with 12 hours remaining. If we leave it going it will eventually finish. However when we shut everything down, reboot computer, start export from timeline and it completes the render in HALF the time compressor stated remaining before we closed it. Each project typically takes 6-8 hours to get all three files (pro res, MPEG-2, AIFF) we allow 18 hours for render.
    Drive space should not be an issue. We have a 5 TB array (typically has 2 TB free for 4 projects), system drive has 350 GB free and the 4 projects rendered out will take up approximately 300 GB. The project reads, and writes to the array for everything.
    Any help on trying to figure out why compressor slows down over time. Once restarting compressor goes as expected.
    Thanks for the help in advance.

    All software is up to date latest versions of FCP and Compressor.

    This is like an EDL...Edit Decision List.  This basically is a metadata rich document that is used to transfer clip information between systems.  You can export an XML from FCP 7 to FCP 6 so that you can open a sequence, or a project.  Export an XML of the sequence and open that up in Excel to have clip name, reel and timecode information for tracking footage. 
    No media is enclosed in this file.

  • How do you select/move multiple clips from one timeline to another?

    Has to do with combining multiple edls from Avid - required due to an issue with duplicate reel names in the original Arri footage. I can move them one at a time, but it is very tedious. Is there a way to select multiple clips and move them together?

    Actually discovered the magic of the shift key.
    IRCP Beauty doesn't recognize multiple timelines in a session, so first you have to at least get the footage on multiple tracks in the same timeline. Shift + drag on the track will allow you to move it to another timeline. Also Shift + drag on the center of the first clip in a sequence will slide the entire sequence down - which is how timelines end up getthing offset all the time. Also, if there are multiple tracks in a timeline and some are locked and some aren't, Shift + drag on a clip will slide ALL UNLOCKED tracks in the timeline.
    Finally, Shift + click on either in or out marker moves both points up or down the timeline.

  • 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 video clip from Premiere into an existing Encore project

    New to encore.....love the software so far....but not much experience with it yet. Here is my question:
    How do I go about exporting a video clip from premiere CS3 into an open/existing encore project. When I try to export to encore from the prem. timeline it makes a new proj. Sometimes I want to render out and export more than one asset into the same encore proj. but cant seem to figure out how to do that. any help would be great.
    Thanks,
    Eric

    thanks J.....I have been doing it all along the way that you suggested. Just wondered if there might be a more efficient way to bring in multiple files. I appreciate your help with this....now at least I know that I am not doing things in a more difficult manner than necessary.
    Thanks again!
