How do I make a video loop in FCP?

Hello good folks,
I've been using FCP for a few years, but none of my clients requested a video loop ever before, therefore, I don't know how to do it. In the project I'm actually working on, my client wants me to activate that function in the final product; do you guys have any suggestion in this matter?
Thank you very much in advance

Actually, there is as issue that needs to be explored here. Does your sequence begin and end in black? If so, CaptM's method will work just fine. You may see a short hiccup at the loop point as most dvd players will hold a still frame that is probably just a field momentarily, but it probably won't be that noticeable. If you want to loop a video seamlessly, you should repeat the clip in the track as often as possible to fit on a dvd. And then setup the end jump for the track to go back to the beginning of the same clip. This loop point may be noticeable but all the others will be seamless.

  • How to make a Video loop with FCP Express?

    Hi everybody. I need to make a lot of shorts videos with jpgs extracted from a main video. But those jpgs videos must be done as a loop that will returns and plays again forever (the videos will be placed in a web site) Is that possible, and if it is, what I need to do to obtain that loop?.
    Best Regards.
    Julian Laffont.

    Hi Tom. It's not for my web site. Is for someone else . I don't know what to do or say. Should I make a video with the jpgs and tell them that they need to use the looping application of their web site? (I don't know if they have that application) Also Will be good to know if there is a specific format of video that loops in the web sites?. Wich one will be.QTM, WMV I don't know.
    Thanks.

  • How do I make 1 video file play alone or as part of a sequence of videos

    how do I make 1 video file play alone or as part of a sequence of videos and only have it on the disc once.
    My problem is that I am short of space on my disc due to the amount of content, and all of the files appear separately on the menu to play invividualy, but i would like to have a play all function aswell without putting the files on the disc twicew. Am I being an idiot? Is this easy to solve?

  • How can I make a while loop wait 10 seconds before iterations​?

    I am using labview to for an osmosis system that measures the amout of water lost from the reading on a scale.  
    I currently have the program displaying the data from 3 scales every second.
    I also need to calculate the flux through the membrane over time.
    I do this with a function that takes a change in the scale reading over time (with a shift register) followed by a series of mathematical conversions.
    The readings from the scale display OK every second, but I need to have at least 10 seconds between flux calculations.
    So my question is, how do I make a the shift register take one value from the scale, then wait 10 seconds before taking the second value?  That way I have the mass of water lost over a 10 msecond period.  
    Below is my current while loop for Flux using shift registers from data from 3 scales.  
    Any helkp would be great!
    Also, I'm new at LabVIEW...

    Do you understand how Dataflow (a key idea behind LabVIEW) works?  If you put a Wait (ms) function (on the Timing Palette) with 10000 (10,000 milliseconds = 10 seconds) inside your While Loop, the principles of Data Flow will require all of the functions inside the While (specifically the Wait function) to finish their execution before the loop can run again.  As everything else in the loop takes approximately 0 seconds, this will make your loop run once every 10 seconds.

    I do not think that is a good idea. 
    The inner loop should be in sync with the outer loop, not run independent on it's own timer.
    If the inner loop is running independently you run the risk of using stale data.
    Actually  altenbach is right the inner loop does not need to be a for loop at all, but rather just a case like my suggestion (without the for loop) and the shift registers should be out on the main loop.
    My suggestion was a quick solution going by what little bit of the block diagram I could see, but if the entire code was posted I am sure we would see where more improvements could be made and possibly even a better solution.

  • How do I make the video higher quality?

    How do I make dvd's with a higher quality?  I have a Sony AVCHD Camcorder.  I used to use a Macbook Pro and iMovie and iDVD to make DVDs and I could choose to make them a higher quality.  The problem was that it would literally take DAYS to get them done.  I switched to Final Cut, which is quicker, but I can't seem to make the DVDs a higher quality and they are very fuzzy compared to what I used to make.
    My husband assures me that the pros in Hollywood use Final Cut Pro to edit video, so it must be possible to make these a better quality.

    If you still have a copy of iDVD:
    Export from FCP X As a Master File and use the export in iDVD the same way as you did with iMovie.
    Bear in mind all DVD discs will only ever be SD Quality and not HD.
    Better quality requires a jump to Bluray.
    FCP X can burn direct to Bluray if you have the gear.

    How do I make a music video with my pictures and iTunes ? Do I need a special App or Program ?

    What happens when you click on the price button, what prompts/messages appear ? If you have a balance on your account then that will automatically be used for the purchase, you can't specify how items are charged.
    If when clicking on the price button you are being prompted to review and log into the account then unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method  - Apple Suppor…
    then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
    If that is what is happening then you could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you review your account without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054#24303054
    If not then try entering your card's details, it shouldn't be charged (apart from a temporary store holding charge which your card issuer should remove within a few days or so), and you should be able to remove the card after entering it.

  • How do I make a video on one track expand in size over a video on a second track? Elements 11

    How do I make one a video on one track expand in size over a video on a second track?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the follow up with additional very helpful information.
    What you need to do is to keyframe the Motion Scale property so that it changes over the duration of the whole photo
    rather than  Scale being applied to the whole photo uniformly.
    Two ways you could do the keyframing of Scale..
    a. from the Timeline
    or
    b. from Applied Effects/Applied Effects Palette/Motion Panel expanded and its Scale Property there, using Toggle Animation to initiate the process.
    For now, I will describe "b"
    Your scaled down image on Video Track 2
    Your regular image on Video Track 1
    Your Timeline Indicator at the beginning of the Timeline.
    Select/Highlight the image on Video Track 2, go to Applied Effects Tab/Applied Effects Palette/Motion Panel Expanded and its Scale Property
    That area should look like
    You get an abbreviated version of the above screenshot if you do not hit the Show/Hide Keyframe Controls icon. With it opened, you will see the actual keyframes being placed.
    With your Timeline Indicator at the beginning of the Timeline and Video Track 2 Image selected, click on the Toggle Animation Icon. That will set the Scale property keyframes
    which at that time will be at a value less than 100% because you are starting with a scaled down Video Track 2 Image.
    Then move the Timeline Indicator to the last frame of the clip. Then move the Scale slider to 100% or whatever % gives you Video Track 2 Image just to full frame so
    that you do not see the Video Track 1 image. Render the Timeline by pressing of the Enter key of the computer main keyboard or pressing the Render button above
    the Timeline.
    All sorts of things can be done by keyframing a property. The property could be other than Scale (some examples might be Position, Opacity, certain effects applied
    to Timeline content, etc.)
    Please review and consider and then let us know if that worked for you. Do not hesitate to ask for clarification if needed.
    Thank you.

  • How do you make an video/image move or grow in size on screen?

    I'm trying to make my video clip move from one side of the screen to the next, please help.

    Double-click on the clip in the Timeline to load it into the Viewer. Click on the Motion tab and use the controls in the 'Basic Motion' section. Set a beginning keyframe for each control that you want to change over the duration, then reposition the playhead and make the adjustment(s) - new keyframes will be created if they differ from the initial keyframes you set.
    It's even easier if you set the Canvas window to Image+Wireframe and manually scale, rotate and center the image.
    This is pretty basic stuff and you should find plenty of information on how to perform these types of effects in the user's manual/help files. For much more comprehensive instructions, pick up a copy of Kevin Monahan's book "Motion Graphics and Effects in Final Cut Pro"

  • How do I make the video show a screenshot before the user clicks play? 

    Hey everyone. I didn't want to bother you with this, but I
    couldn't find anything in the knowledge base or forums for "poster
    frame" or "pre-play frame." Maybe the search function wasn't
    working.
    How do I make it so the video displays a freeze frame with a
    play button prior to playing?
    I already know how to extract a freeze frame (from the
    non-linear editing program I'm using). Just wondering how to make
    it the pre-play picture. Thanks!

    I'm trying to do the same thing with a picture on top of an
    FLVPlayback video, and I can't seem to find the information I need
    either!
    It appears to be easy if you do it all in flash, but if you
    don't know flash, well......

  • How do I make one video plays after the other

    Let's say I have an idvd project with 5 different movies, how do I make one plays after the other? When I click next, it goes back to the menu. Thanks Alex

    There are two ways to do this.
    1. If you have it, use iMovie HD6. You can put all of your movies into one project, and add chapter markers at the beginning of each movie. This will allow you to play your movies straight through or select the individual movies, like a scene selection.
    2. You can use iDVD instead. Check out this post by Old Toad on how to use this method.
