FCP, won't allow fade in/fade out dissolve between clips?

I'm trying to add this dissolve between two clips. When I drag the dissolve over to the timeline, the dissolve covers one clip but not the other? There is not a frame space between them.
Thanks in advance.

While we all have MacBooks in this forum not all of us use FCP. There's a FCP Support Community where everybody uses FCP. You should also post this question there.

How do i fade out a video clip?

how do i fade out a video clip?

ChiDonDada
What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
In the absence of that information, I will generalize, tending toward Premiere Elements 11....
a. Right click the Expert workspace Timeline video, select Fade from the pop up menu and then the wanted Fade Audio or Video command.
b. In version 11, you could click on Applied Effects/Applied Effects Palette/Opacity Panel and the shortcut Fades there.
c. You could keyframe the Opacity property in the Applied Effects Palette/Opacity or via the video track content rubberband at the Timeline Level.
Please supply more information for fading in out your video and audio track contents.
Thanks.

Ken Burns with Fade in Fade out Dissolve

I have about 300 pictures and want to add kens burns and fade in fade out dissolve to all at once then go one by one and adjust.
I figured out how to do copy paste attriubutes to all pics for Ken Burns, BUT not sure if there is a simple way to add Fade in Fade out Dissolve btn each of them to avoid doing 300x
Thanks much

OK I'll bite... Who is this Ken Burns?
There's a couple of ways to go about adding your transitions. I think is the easiest.
Make sure the favorite transition and length you want it are set in your effects tab. Select all of your clips in the timeline and drag them up to the canvas holding down the mouse. Several options should display and I believe the one you want is overwright with favorite transition. Its been a while since I've done but give it a try and post back if I'm wrong.
For bonus points-
Another way to quickly add your favorite transition is to use the arrow key or mouse to position the cursor at the edit point and press Apple+T

Fade in Fade out dissolve automatically added to every cut

After two months I finally finished editing a movie. Exported and burned it to a dvd and saved the most final version. Came back two days later to do a bit more work and while working on it, and perhaps I accidently hit something, but the timeline did something funky I had never seen. It added what looked like ghost lines that I couldn't figure out how to remove. Shut things down and went back to it a day later only to find that every cut had a fade in fade out dissolve added. I tried going back to earlier saved versions but they turned out to all require a lot of work to get me to the final version. Seemed easier to just go back and delete and change the fade out fade in transitions.
Anyone know what happened?

Yes. If I have a timeline with clips on it:
and I select them all (by using, in the case Command + A):
Then install a dissolve by typing Command + T, it gets applied to all the cut points:

It might be that you are logged in with HTTP authentication (either basic or digest). This authentication is arranged by the browser, so you would have seen a pop-up dialog asking for a user name and password while logging in. It seems that these are cached by the browser and it requires you to restart the browser to log out...

Because I found that having to restart the browser quite annoying I stumbled on this question and also on the HTTP Logout add-on that allows you to log out without restarting your browser. Not many sites use HTTP Authentication, but you might give it a try.

Fade out a video clip

How do I fade out the last image on a video clip?

the way I do it, or what I think you're trying to do, is go to the last frame you want to fade out, in your case the last frame, go to edit and select 'create still image' or something to that effect, and in the raw footage bank a 5second still image should apear of that frame. then click and drag it, go to the transition section and select the type of fade out you wish to use. Hope that helped.

Can't add a dissolve between clips in FCP 4.5

I do animations and we shoot hundreds of stills with a digital camera to record a "shot" in a scene then import them all to FCP 4.5 with the still image duration set to 2 frames. This gives a sort of 12 frames a second speed to the animations which is ok for our purposes.
Then we export the timeline as a qt mov file and use that like it was a single video clip in another sequence in FCP to build up the final project.
When I try to add a dissolve or any other video transition between two of these clips, it won't work.
If there is a gap between the clips, I can add a dissolve at either end of the clip and this looks like a fade out or fade in, but if the clips are touching then I can't add any transition.
I have also tried nesting the sequence with all of the still images into a new sequence so that the stills are treated as a single clip in the new sequence, but this doesn't solve the problem and I can't add transitions between those clips either.
The computers are G5 Mac Pros running Tiger 10.4.10 and FCP is version 4.5
Can anyone please explain what is wrong or how to fix it?
Thanks a lot for any advice.

One way to do dissolves is to put the clips in different video tracks and overlap them (that is, handles by the duration of the "dissolve" you want to implement.
Then use an opacity ramp to fade on out as you fade the other one up.
I find that doing dissolves this way means that I don't have to set the in and out points with a transition in mind, and it easy to slide the clips around to get the exact effect want.
To do opacity ramps, you need to set the sequence setting "timeline options" set to show keyframe overlays. That will put a black line on the video timeline for each clip on each track. When dragged to the top, it is 100% opaque; at the bottom it is 100% transparent. You use the little "ink pen" to put keyframe handles on the timeline opacity line and you can then gradually increase/decrease the ramp as you see fit, including rounding the corners to make it smoother.
As other noted, it may be easier to just make sure you have the right amount of "handle" (video beyond the in and out points) and do one of the built in dissolves; I find that if I don't like the timing I've chosen, it is more work to fiddle around with the in/out points (for example, by putting the clip in question on another video track and dragging the ends out or in).
Experiment with different methods and use the one which works best for you.

Can anyone tell me WHY Oracle won't allow sub-queries in outer joins?

Hi,
I've recently been tasked with converting a series of InterBase dbs to Oracle.
Many of the queries in the InterBase dbs use sub-queries in outer joins. Oracle won't countenance this (01799 - a column may not be outer-joined to a subquery).
I can get around it using functions but WHY won't Oracle allow this?
SQL Server allows it, InterBase allows it (I don't know about ANSI SQL) but it seems to be a common enough technique...
I'm just curious (and also a little frustrated!).
Thanks in advance,,,

Hi,
>>Oracle treat an empty string as a NULL
Well, you same answer your question. Because it is empty
SGMS@ORACLE10> create table tab (cod number, name varchar2(1));
Table created.
SGMS@ORACLE10> insert into tab values (1,'');
1 row created.
SGMS@ORACLE10> insert into tab values (2,' ');
1 row created.
SGMS@ORACLE10> commit;
SGMS@ORACLE10> select cod,dump(name) from tab;
       COD DUMP(NAME)
         1 NULL
         2 Typ=1 Len=1: 32
SGMS@ORACLE10> select * from tab where name is null;
       COD NAME
         1Cheers
If you talking about language tools, for example PHP treat empty string <> of NULL values. e.g: functions like is_empty() and is_null()

Stuttering Fade In Fade Out Dissolve

All,
I'm trying to cross fade two clips together and my fades are stuttering. They don't look smooth at all. I don't know why, but they were looking good before and now this.
I've read that effects are not as smooth in Final Cut as they are on DVD. That's fine, but like I said my fades were looking so much smoother before.
Any clues?
Trey

have you tried trashing all of your render files and starting over? Sometimes they can get corrupted or render on top of each other and end up creating a render that looks horrible.

Airport Extreme Won't Allow iMail to Send out Emails through POP or IMAP

So we just got the Airport Extreme and the internet is working just fine, but on both my macbook and my Father's iMac we can't send emails through our iMail. Mine is connected to my gmail account and his is connected to a comcast account. We can both receive email, but not send it out, it just sits in the outbox attempting to send itself.
I tried resetting my account, and deleted it altogether and made a new one, but that still didn't work.
Any other ideas?

TS4644 have tried updating icloud but my screen has froze and won't allow me to get out of screen

I have tried to update Icloud keychain but my screen has froze. Each time I try to agree the terms nothing happens. Only had ipad a couple of months.

If it really froze (you can't do anything with it), try rebooting it: press and hold the home and power buttons until the Apple icon is displayed, then let go.

How do I "fade to black" between clips

Hi All, I want to add a 'fade to black' effect when going from one clip to another and I can't figure out how. Can anyone help? Thanks.

Sorry, I have QT Pro.

BC won't allow me to insert code (scripts) between the /body and the /html tags.

Hi guys,
So I have this weird problem. I'm trying to insert some codes between the </body> and the </html> tags in the page templates. It's saving it. But if you check the page, the code is showing before the </body>, not after. Here's the code that I'm trying to insert.
<script src="http://i.simpli.fi/dpx.js?cid=1534&action=100&segment=198566&m=1"></script>
I have also tried adding this code by downloading the templates through ftp, adding the code, then uploading it to the server. Same thing. I even added type="text/javascript" in the code. Still no go. BC wouldn't insert it between </body> and </html>. Any ideas guys?
- Jeff

So an update.
I was told by Adobe chat support to try adding the script after the body via javascript.
So I added this before </head>
<script type="text/javascript">
var script = document.createElement('script');
script.src = '//i.simpli.fi/dpx.js?cid=1534&action=100&segment=198566&m=1';
script.type = 'text/javascript';
$("html").append(script);
</script>
Still not working. Any ideas guys?

Audition CS5.5 fade out glitch

Hello, I am experiencing a very frustrating glitch with Audition's fade out effect. Occasionally when I apply a fade out to a clip it will have a sudden spike in volume at the very end of the fade out. This happens in the audio preview as well as the exported audio. This happens to about 1 in every 4 clips. I have tried changing settings in Audition, reinstalling my audio driver, and even reinstalling Audition, but nothing fixes the problem. I downloaded the trial of Audition CS6 and it does not have this glitch. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

"But don't worry, I have a fix for you. Upgrade to 6.0, because 6.0 doesn't do it!" was the only reason you gave for upgrading, hence my responce. Adobe does not allow individual upgrades if you own Creative Suite, or have academic pricing for Audition, so I can either upgrade my whole Creative Suite for $360 or purchase a standalone copy of Audition for $350.
"Am I eligible for upgrade pricing from a previous Creative Suite edition to a standalone CS component?
No. You cannot upgrade from a Creative Suite edition to an individual CS component. To confirm your options and learn about the requirements for upgrades, check the upgrade eligibility chart on the buying guide page of the product you wish to purchase. Among other requirements, you must be able to provide the serial number for the product you wish to upgrade during installation."

How to make a combined zoom and fade in/fade out effect in Premiere Pro CS4

Hi everyone,
Like the title says, I would really love to have an effect I could just drag from the effects menu onto my footage (mostly text titles) so they could fade in for a second, zoom in slightly while they're on screen, and then fade out for the clip's last second.
That would make my workflow a LOT faster than fiddling with keyframes for the zoom and always grabbing the cross dissolve at the start and end of the text for a few projects I have. It doesn't sound like much, but when you have moving fading text a couple dozen times in each project and it takes the bulk of your time on the project, the repetition reminds me there has to be a better way.
That's what a computer is supposed to do, right, take care of simple repetitive tasks? So how can I get this set up as a reusable effect?
Thanks!

Dave,
I will +1 Pixelan's products. They are great, simple, and have about the best support that I know of. When you explore, say Pixelan's SpiceMaster, dig deeply. Things appear rather mundane, on the surface, but there is so very much power lurking, just below the surface. I could almost imagine a 1000 page manual to cover every possible aspect of that program... Every time that I use it, I learn something new, and wonderful.
Good luck,
Hunt
