How do I command a single video track (with many clips) to an action?

Hi,
This is my first post in this forum, and I am a beginner on FCE.
I want to take one of my video tracks and reduce the size to 1/4 and put it in the upper right corner of the screen. I want my screen split into 4 equal sections. My first track has many edit points, and I cannot seem to command the whole track to stay put in the upper right corner of the screen.
I can do it if I choose each clip in the track individually (and size it manually) but not all at once. How do I do the track all at once?
Thanks,
humbucker237

Hi(Bonjour)!
You can set the scale to 25% for the first clip in timeline and place in the the upper right corner of the canvas, select it in timeline and use COMMAND-C to copy it.
Now select all remaining clips in timeline and use the paste attributes--motion command to set the scale to 25% for all clip and place them correctly.
OR
Use nested sequence.
Simply create a new sequence (S2) and drag your edited one (S1) (at full scale and position set to 0,0) in the new one. That's the nesting process.
From this step, ALT-double-click this sequence (S1) in timeline to open it in viewer and set the scale and position value.

  • How to isolate one audio or video track?

    How to isolate one audio or video track? My premiere pro cc will only allow me to grab all 8 audio tracks and the video tracks at once when i import it and bring them into the timeline. When I click on one it highlights them all.

    It helps to indicate what version of Premiere you have and whether you're on Mac or Windows.
    If you're on 7.0.1 or later, then disable the Linked Selection button in the Timeline. It's the button to the right of the magnet (Snap). If you frequently want to toggle between linked and unlinked selection, you can assign a shortcut to the command
    Also, you can select any track item by holding ALT while clicking. To select multiple individual track items (e.g., A3, A5, & A7 for a given clip), hold ALT+SHIFT while clicking.
    And I believe Sarthak meant "Unlink" rather than "Ungroup." A/V clips are linked by default, so Unlink is generally available. Ungroup will be available only if what's selected is a set of clips that you manually grouped.

  • Can quicktime play an video track with multiple alternate audio tracks?

    Hi,
    If I have a video track with multiple alternate audio tracks (say different languages), can a user select the audio track of his choice and play in Quick time?
    Thanks,
    Apurva

    Does quick time/ safari have this capability?
    QT (i.e., the QT structure embeded in current Mac OS/device IOS versions) has the ability to switch between alternative audio tracks assuming the file is properly encoded and the compression format is supported. QT 7, QT X, iTunes, and similar app player GUIs can switch between such tracks during playback but the QT plug-in cannot. In a similar manner, devices like TV can switch between such tracks but an iPhone cannot just as an iPhone can select "Chapters" but the QT browser plug-in cannot but an iPhone file programmed with both chapters and alternate audio tracks can be played back through a TV device and access both chapters and alternative audio tracks.
    What I want to use is one video track with alternate audio tracks in a set level manifest and play this using HTTP Live streaming. I'm using the manifest mentioned here :
    http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-pantos-http-live-streaming-07#section-8.7
    Since I do not use playlists, I am not familiar with the approach in your example. If I want alternate audio and/or video tracks, I create standalone video files with these features built in. Nor do I use RTSP if that is what you mean by "live streaming" of content. If I want to "stream" the content, I use "Fast Start" files programmed to open in the QT player app which supports these features or create reference or QT Media Link files that do the same thing.
    As you mentioned, Safari on my iPhone is playing the default/first alternate audio track mentioned but not giving an option to switch tracks.
    Neither Safari nor the Video app GUIs on your iPhone have a built in switching option. The only way to switch to alternate audio tracks is to do so with QT 7 Pro or possibly iTunes before loading or streaming the video file. (Am still speaking about a standalone file here and not a programmed playlist/RTSP switch.)
    However Quick time on my Mac machine only plays the audio with the the video stream and not the alternate audio track.
    The QT player app GUI only switches between tracks that are stored as part of the standalone file. Basically, QT files may contain up to 99 individual data tracks. In alternative audio videos, multiple audio tracks are added to the file by an editor like QT 7 Pro but only one track is designated as "active." All other tracks are designated as "inactive." The QT player GUI allows the viewer to select which audio track he or she wants to hear and then turns off the current audio track and turns on the selected audio track. Otherwise all active tracks would play simultaneously.
    Is there a way to switch tracks on my iPhone on Safari?
    As previously noted, the default track can be manually changed by QT 7 Pro or, I believe, iTunes (used to have this capability) before actually loading or streaming content.
    Does quicktime have this capability?
    As far as I know, only with regard to stand alone files programmed with multiple alternate tracks. I am not a HTML, HTML5, or Java programmer so I assume there may be web alternatives here but they would be beyond the scope of my expertise.
    Do you know any free player that can do this?
    Again, I don't use either playlists or RTSP so I've never had a need to look for/use alternative players that might meet your needs. I simply find it easier to build files that work correctly in current player app/device GUIs already having these capabilities.
    Or the very last option, can I build a player to do this? If yes can you suggest where/how I start?
    Once again, I assume this might be possible but not part of my experience since, for my part, easier work flows are available.

    No, you can't rate video, only audio tracks (i.e. music).

    I can create seperate audio and video files ok, but not a single file?
    Please help...
    Regards

    You won't be able to do this with just FCPX by itself. You should be able to use Compressor to do this, or you can use Quicktime Pro to create a single .mov file from the separate video/audio files exported from FCPX.
    If you use Compressor, you can save the preset and make it available inside FCPX for future use.

  • How to trim Music to match Video track

    I recorded the video of a concert without audio with my camera and the sound I recorded with professionals mics. Now I want to add the sound to the video. The problem is, that I hardly can find the right position where the movie should start, when I trim the Music. The Music track is over an hour and when I move a little bit forward with the mouse the Video track begins too late and vice versa.
    I noticed, that I can click and hold down the mouse on the Music track in the trimming window afar from the yellow borders and when I then move the mouse backwards the yellow border at the beginning of the track moves to the left. When I move forwards with the mouse the yellow border follows to the right until he reaches the old position. What for is this? Can I use this to position the Video track exactly on the Music track?
    Is there a way to lock the pointer while trimming the music?
    Can I cut the Music track in several pieces?

  • Looping a video track with escape -- Bug or Pilot error?

    [The next 2 paragraphs are a repeat of my previous post. I'm including them for context.]
    I'm working in DVDSP 4 and have encountered a few "anomalies". I wanted to see if I am doing something wrong or if I have found a bug. I will break this into two posts because they are two different issues.
    Basically I am creating a DVD that will back a live presentation. The video track is timed to approximate the length of the presentation. But I want to have several "escape hatches". If a segment does run a little long then the presentation will dump into another track that has a still image and a background music track. I don't want to pause the play, because I want full-field video and audio. I also want to advance through the presentation by simply clicking the NEXT CHAPTER button.
    [/End repeated section]
    So the other problem with looping a still on a video track is escaping the loop. I've set this track's END JUMP to go to the "Chapter 1" marker of the current video program. (It's the only marker on the this timeline.) I've targeted the "Next Chapter" button to return me to my main timeline. Whether I simulate OR burn this DVD program I get the same results. The playhead does not jump tracks. Instead it returns to the start of the current timeline and begins playing again.
    Is this supposed to happen? DVDSP lets me assign all these actions, and the manual and support seems to indicate this should work, but it doesn't. Not sure if this is a bug, a problem with the DVD spec, or simply my lack of knowledge. (please help)

    Houghts & Aldershot -- thanks for your reply. To add a little clarity the project goes like this:
    The MAIN track is 20 minutes long. If the speaker finishes a section early, he can "NEXT" to the next section (next marker). If he runs long, when he gets to the next marker the dvd will dump him into another track (Lets call it WAITING TRACK) that will "hold" (with some music) until he hits NEXT again. So far this all works.
    The problem is getting OUT of the WAITING TRACK loop and back to the MAIN track. Putting a second marker near the end of this track (as Aldershot suggests) will jump me to the end of WAITING but how do I get back to the marker in MAIN? Can I just set an end Jump to go back to the marker I want in MAIN? Will the presenter then have to hit skip forward twice? (I guess I'll have to try and see.)
    I guess I could target this marker in main with the MENU button, but then the presenter would have TWO buttons to worry about. I'm trying to make this as zipless as possible.
    By the way, if I don't loop the WAITING track back to the first marker, this scenario works. The problem only arises if I loop back to Chapter1. Making the end of the track an infinite hold looked to be a promising option. But it seems to put the player into pause. The user must hit PLAY and then NEXT. Two buttons again.
    I'll keep digging and follow up as I learn more.

    @daguerratype
    The Spatial Conform is one of the things I tried. Unfortunately none of its settings fixed the aspect ratio. When I choose "Fit", it simply shows it as 4:3 and leaves left and right black borders on a 16:9 timeline. When I choose "Fill", it zooms the 4:3 video and chops off the top and bottom parts.
    @Thomas Emmerich
    This is a decent workaround. Fortunately my clips are named in such a way that I can easily drop them all in the timeline and do a Command-F (Find) to search by clip name, highlight all of them in the search results, then use the Inspector to modify the properties of all the clips at once. I have to change X-scale to 133% and Spatial Conform to "Fit", and now at least it fits the 16:9 timeline properly.
    Thanks to both replies. I still hope Apple adds a way to fix the clip in the Event browser so that I don't have to do this workaround.

  • How does exactly AMS sync a video stream with another stream of audio only ?

    I have the following situation: 2 instances of FMLE on one machine and another machine with AMS Starter.
    The instances of the FMLE are:
    1. Video H.264 + audio MP3
    2. Audio only MP3 - track 1
    The application on AMS is a livepkgr/_definst_ and i am using HDS with a live event
    I have an OSMF based player to consume the streams and to do audio switch using late binding audio.
    When I consume the Video with the Default audio everything works just fine. The problem is that when I try to consume the Video with the other audio track, the audio tack has a 1 second delay compared to the video.
    I have tried to fix this by changing the configurations on the FMLE, but it doesnt seem to work. So I really want to know how does exactly AMS syncronize differents streams, in this case a video stream with a different audio stream.

    First, what is the file format, and its specs. for the remote recorder?
    Though the rates of modern cameras and digital recorders SHOULD match 100%, in the real-world, they seldom do. This make perfect syncing a labor intensive process.
    One should do tests between the cameras and the recorders, to find out the % or error. Then, adjust their Audio to match first. As an example, one user in the PrPro Forum tested his Panasonic cameras, and his Zoom recorders, and found that the Zooms were off by 0.04% constantly. To correct this, he used the Time Remapping (with Maintain Pitch checked), and would apply that adjustment to all of the Zooms' files - perfect sync.
    As for the Waveform not displaying for your remote recorder, did you allow those files to completely Conform (creation of the CFA and PEK files, the latter is the Waveform Display)? See this article: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/726693?tstart=30
    Also, you should be able to increase the vertical zoom of your Audio Tracks, and hence any Clips on them, by hovering the Cursor over the junction between Tracks, in the Track Header, and when it turns into a = sign, with up/down arrows, click+drag. Then, you should be able to find commonality in the beginning, to sync up to. Tip: for this critical work, toggle the Snap feature OFF, with the S key.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
