How do I convert my video clips into one continuous video ready for DVD?

I have about 5 videos of my band performing a show. Some of the videos include more than one song. How do I separate these songs into chapters and export the video to DVD format? I'm sorry if this is a stupid question but I have all of the videos loaded up as Events but I don't know what to do from there. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.

  • How to combine video clips into one video clip using FCPX

    I typed this into the search engine but could not come up with anything. How do you combine Video clips into one Video clip using FCPX? Thanks in advance.
    Gar

    The simple answer is to put the clips together in a project in the desired order and export (oops, the new word is share [YUK!]) a master file.
    But maybe you should say a little more about the clips to determine whether the answer I've given is relevant to yor situation.

  • Assembling still photos and video clips into one video presentation.

    This is partly a Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements (both version 7) question, so hopefully not posting to the wrong group (there doesn't seem to be a Premiere Elements forum anyway)!
    I am currently putting together a video/slideshow presentation, initially for display directly from a computer (to data projector) and then ultimately to end up on a DVD.  The presentation  consists of digital and scanned photographs (prints and transparencies) and video clips.  I successfully put together a slideshow of all the stills with Photoshop Elements, inlcuding music etc.  I then output the slideshow to Premiere Elements, so that I could merge it with my already edited video clips.
    The output process works smoothly enough, but as soon as I run the completed presentation, the quality of the imported slideshow is nothing short of woeful!  Each image is badly pixellated and all the transition effects are mangled - in short, it is unwatchable.  As it turns out, simply adding a single, still image to Premiere Elements results in a very poor final image.  Drop the exact same video clips and still images into Windows Movie Maker and the quality is spot on (as is playing the slideshow after outputting it as a WMV file and playing via any player capable of playing WMVs).
    Trying to go the other way, ie importing video clips into Photoshop Elements, pretty much always results in it crashing!
    The two products are marketed to "work together", but they are an abject failure in this regard!
    OS is 64 bit Vista Ultimate.
    I've tried searching the manuals and online help, but could find nothing of any help.  I've sent an e-mail to Adobe support, but have received no response from them (after three weeks).
    I'm hoping that someone may be able to point out something that I may have missed, or offer some tips and tricks.
    Thanks.

    There is a separate forum for Premiere Elements at
    http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere/premiere_elements
    Also, my favorite place for Premiere Elements questions (including slideshows) is a site started by some Adobe Premiere Elements forum regulars at http://muvipix.com/phpBB3/index.php   Forum signup is free. There are multiple subforums at that site and because most of your questions are Premiere elements, I suggest that you post under the "PE version 7" subforum.
    Wherever you decide to post, I suggest that you include in your post my comments and the answers to the questions that I asked here.
    1 -- It has FAQs over to the right of the thread listing on the Adobe Premiere Elements forum. One of those FAQs that is relevant to your current workflow is
    What resolution should my photos be in Premiere Elements?
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/431851?tstart=0
    2 -- Also, I suspect that you used Pan and/or Zoom on some of your photos when creating the Slide Show withinn Photoshop Elements.
    For those photos, you want the Premiere Elements setting of Scale to Framesize set OFF.
    3- There are also other considerations such as
    -- which Project Setting you are using in Premiere Elements?
    -- what dimensions are you using when you export from Premiere Elements to the WMV file?
    -- what is the resolution for the projector on which this video will initially be displayed?
    4 -- I do agree with your approach of adding the video in Premiere Elements.
    5 -- The mangled transitions needs more detailed info in order to discuss.
    Tthe timing of transitions is definitely different between the Photoshop Elements slideshow editor playback and the Premiere Elements output: this gives some people serious problems and for others it is not significant.  I don't know yet if that is your problem.

  • Grouping synced audio + video clips into one clip?

    I've been asked to edit some footage together that was shot by some other people. They recorded the audio separate from the video on a Marantz device, but they used a clapboard to mark everything so it shouldn't be too much of a problem to sync the audio files with the video files.
    I can do that in the timeline, but I'd like to know if I can take multiple audio files and sync them with the one large video stream and have them treated as one single clip so I can easily cut them and put them in the timeline as usual?

    Just put them all in to a timeline and when you have them synced properly export the timeline as a reference or self-contained quicktime and re-import that file.

  • How to import 12 different PPro files into one Encore file to make DVD

    I'm trying to create a DVD with 12 different lessons on it.  I have created 12 Premiere Pro CS4 files (each is a slideshow lessons with narration) and I want to bring them all into one Encore file.  I can send one file to Encore via Dynamic Link - but when I open another PPro file and try to send it to the same Encore folder - it erases the file I put in there previously.  Maybe I'm going about this all wrong - I really don't know.  Please Help.

    Hi Stan,
    Thanks for the reply.
    Since I wanted to get the DVD finished asap - I jumped right into PPro CS4 without going through a learning process first.
    When I said "file" I meant one of the 12 or 13 different PPro projects that I saved to my Desktop...each lesson is different - so I made and saved each lesson separately and placed each of them in a different folder.  Each lesson only has one "sequence" (and I'm not sure what "sequence" means yet).
    These are basically PowerPoint lessons with narration - each lesson containing anywhere from 25-75 pictures or text slides.
    When I opened up one of the lessons in PPro and sent it via DL to Encore - that was fine.  It created an Encore file.  When I opened up the next PPro file and tried to DL to that same Encore file - it appeared to delete or do away with the first file I had sent there.  I could DL each of the 12 or 13 files - but only to its own Encore file.  I couldn't figure out how to get them all into the same Encore file.  But thanks to all the help on this forum - there are now 13 little videos that I can import into the same Encore file.  And that's amazing.
    Thanks for the encouraging words that this project might all fit on the same DVD (I was worred because the files add up to 107 minutes - and I the DVD holds 120 minutes (I think).  I was assuming that after I created a menu and added a picture for the background in the title page, etc., that it would all add up to too much information for one DVD).
    I'll let you know how the DVD turns out.
    Thank you very much.

  • Can I merge sequential video clips into one clip on import?

    I have 3 JVC GY-HM750U cameras  and they a recording into approx 10 min clips if you record for long durations.
    So if I record for 30 minutes I would have 3 consecutive clips. Usually this isn't that big of a deal but when we have 3 cameras running and we want to edit using multicam or multiclip editing it is kind of a pain when each angle is broken up into pieces.

    That's an interesting POV because my experience is that FCP handles intermittent recording breaks extremely well – as long as the camera is correctly identified.

  • Make two or more audio clips into one

    Hi,
    I want to fade in an audio track but don't have a long enough piece of audio (without dialogue) to do it.
    So I've copied and pasted two pieces of audio onto the time-line.
    How can I make the two clips into one?
    Thanks,
    Michael

    Thanks for the reply.
    But what I need to do is make several separate pieces of audio appear as one piece.
    This is called "heal" in some programs.
    Instead of seperate pieces you have just one, which is a composite of those pieces.
    I believe it can be done in Premiere by either nesting or exporting.
    Michael
    P..S This is not for music BTW but just for some background ambience.

  • Combining several clips into one movie

    what is the best way to combine several short video clips into one dvd?

    you've read the manual...?

  • How do I insert a video clip into the timeline?

    Do you happen to know how I could insert a video clip into the middle of a movie like you do in FCP? Can you add tracks and insert the clip above the spot i need to change for each movie.
    I don't want to render the whole movie (convert it into a MPeg2) each time.

    No - DVD timelines are a little different to FCP. If you need to add a clip to the stream, you need to split the exisitng clip (you could trim it back to where you want to insert the new piece) and drag the new piece onto the same timeline. If you trimmed the existing piece then add another instance of it to the timeline and trim the new part from the left until you get to what you want as the out point.
    If you have a collection of video clips on your DVDSP timeline, simply dragging a new one on will shuffle the others along appropriately. However, the audio will not shuffle with them, and you'll end up moving it all manually.
    The very best thing is to create the timeline precisely as you want it in FCP and encode it to MPEG2 before bringing it in to DVDSP. Remember that DVDSP is not an editor, it is a place to assemble your work - it won't do anything remotely like FCP in that respect.

  • How to converting a flash clip into a bmp file quickly

    Hi,
    I’d like to get help on converting a flash clip into a
    bmp file. I have an application developed with ActiveX technology.
    There is a flash control embedded in the ActiveX control, which has
    a printing button. The end users can press the printing button to
    print the flash picture as well as other text content.
    I get the flash picture for printing in follow steps:
    1.Create a BitmapData object
    var bmp:BitmapData = new BitmapData(w, h, false);
    2.Obtain the image of current flash
    bmp.draw(mc, mc.transform.matrix, new ColorTransform(), 1,
    new Rectangle(x, y, w, h));
    3.Get pixels of flash image one by one in loop, and save them
    into a PixelCollection
    bmp.getPixel(col, row);
    4.Move the PixelCollection into flash container
    fscommand("print", load_PixelCollection);
    5.Ocx control gets the PixelCollection and converts it into
    BMP format
    But I find it is very slow when action script gets pixels one
    by one. Getting pixels of a middle size flash may spend one minute.
    It is hard for our customer to stand. Does anyone have idea to get
    the flash image quickly?　
    Any help is appreciated.
    Shi Hang

    What about the built-in print methods, wouldn't it be better
    to use those here?
    Getting all pixel values is a time intensive process, because
    of the amount of pixels. It may be a bit faster if you split the
    getPixel() loop over some frames, but I'm not exactly sure how to
    do that (just read it somewhere).
    If the content is fixed, you could create the pixel array in
    the background while the user looks at it. This is quite some
    overhead, but when the user decides to print, the array would
    already be there.
    Finally, not helpful here, but interesting:
    quote:
    BitmapData.getPixels()
    No longer do you have to loop through every pixel in a
    bitmap, one at a time with getPixel to send a bitmap to the server.
    This method returns a ByteArray containing the hexadecimal color
    value of each of the pixels in the specified rectangular region of
    a bitmap. Use this method in conjunction with the new ZLib
    compression method; ByteArray.compress() to compress and send a
    bitmap over the wire to a server so it can be converted into a file
    ready for downloading.

  • How do I get video clips into Organizer from Elements?

    I have broken my raw video into pieces in elements but can't get it to import into organizer.
    I am using Elements 11 Trial.

    The video is actually a football highlight film for our son and came to us as a single mp4 file with about 60 plays of video on it.
    What I am trying to do is
    1) Cut it down into 60 individual videos (which I did and currently have in my project).
    2) Save the pieces off as individual video clips.
    3) Get the ability to rank/rate each video and select the 25 or so that will make up the final video.
    4) Polish/edit those that make the grade.
    5) Organize and assemble.
    Does this make sense?

I am using Elements 11 Trial.Place the "Work Area Bars" (located on the time line) so that only a "piece" is covered.  Then "Share" to a computer file. Pick a file type that suits your needs.  Be sure to check the box titled "Share WorkArea Bar Only".  Unfortunately, the clip piece will be re-encoded.  PrE11 will do that well, but not perfect because any encoding always seems to loose a little. You did not say what camera you are using.  The software that came with my Sony and Panasonic camcorders is much better for splitting clips into smaller clips.  Some sort of magic is in them where re-encoding does not take place.  The pieces have the same picture quality as the original.   So, when I do what you want, I break it into pieces with the camcorder software, the put the video together in PrE with all the creative tools it offers.  Bill

  • I have old video clips in Photoshop Elements Organizer v12 for Mac.  I want to divide some of those clips in Organizer.  I can do that in Premiere Elements 12 and save them as "Projects" - but how do I get the divided clips back into Organizer?

    I have old video clips in Photoshop Elements Organizer v12 for Mac.  I want to divide some of those single clips into 2 or 3 separate clips, each shown separately in Organizer.  I can divide the clips in Premiere Elements Editor 12 and save them as "Projects" - but I can't find any way to get those divided clips back into Organizer.  Does anyone know whether that can be done?  Many thanks for your thoughts.

    What about Google Drive? And just share the folder with the family members.

  • How do i put Video clips into Imovie, Without Iphoto?

    Im using Imovie for a school project, and i need to put video clips into it. But for some reason my mac doesnt have Iphoto, and i've read online that the only way to do this, is through Iphoto??? Does anybody know otherwise?? please help!!

    If you have a supported camcorder or camera you should be able to import your video directly to imovie from the camera. If the video is already on you computer, select the imovie File menu, then select import to library and navigate to the movie files you want to import. The article below should help you
