How do I rename each clip in a new smart keyword colletion (subclips)?

I sometimes have multiple intviews, and I want to be able to pull multiple sound bites from one clip as subclips so I can browse through them as I edit. If you take a clip, command k, create a smart collection, and put multiple clips from the same source clip, if you rename one of these clips it renames all of them, making it impossible to rename the individual clips, thus making it just a shade better than just scrubbing through the original each time. Is there a way to name or tag each clip so that I quickly find an individual clip coming from a group of bites from the same source?
Thanks!

If you take a clip, command k, create a smart collection,
That's a keyword collection, not a smart collection. Keywords cannot be changed. If you mark a section as a favorite, the favorite can be renamed. These are not subclips and do not behave the same.

How do i rename my iphone on the new itunes?

Drag a clip to a new track?

New user here with a simple question I can't seem to find the answer to. How do I drag a clip to a new track and while making sure it stays locked in time? Usually there is a modifier key (like shift) to hold when dragging. Thanks.

Thanks Steve. I guess I need to "lock in time" a clip before I drag it. In other apps I've used you are able to just grab the clip and if you hold down the shift key before dropping it onto a different track, the clip stays locked to the same time. I thought there might be a similar command in Audition.

How can I reset the CTI for each clip to 00:00?

I'm brand new to this - got Premier Elements 12 yesterday, so please bear with me.
I have clips from a soccer game, each of which starts with 00:00. I have written notes about key scenes in each clip using the time that scene occurs in each clip. But when I add clips to the timeline, each clip's CTI begins at the point where the last clip's left off. So, say I wanted to get to a scene in clip 2 at 0:44. But clip 1, with a duration of 4:30, precedes clip 2 in the timeline . To get to the scene I was looking for in clip 2, I'd have to add the 4:30 from clip 1 to the 0:44 in clip 2 to find my scene in the timeline at 5:14 . Obviously, the problem only gets worse with each additional clip. And near impossible when I trim clips.
One "workaround" I can use is to make a copy of the original clip in project assets, adjust the in and out points in the copy to get the scene I want, save/rename that scene and add it to the timeline instead of the original clip. Each scene would then be renamed and would show it's specific duration in the timeline. But that seems like a lot of work, to have to make copies of original clips in assets, trim them there and take them to the timeline. Back and forth, back and forth.
Is there a way to keep the start and end times of each original clip when I add it to the timeline, so I can isolate each scene in that clip and trim out the unwanted portions without having to do math or spend time making and trimming copies? To be more succinct, Can I reset the CTI at the start of each clip to 00:00 within the timeline?
I hope I've described my issue in a clear way that doesn't cause confusion. If not, please let me know what other questions you have or additional info you need to understand the issue I'm describing. Thanks, and sorry for the long post.

Please take a look at the blog post that I wrote about the gathering, assembling, organizing, and management of clips in a large project.

See if any of the details work for you in your planned Premiere Elements projects.
Also, from the point of view of leaving informational notes in the program, consider the "Comments" opportunities of the unnumbered markers when you place unnumbered markers in the Timeline.

I shot video on a Panasonic P2 and I'm trying to import the MXF files to Final Cut Pro but when I try to import, the only thing that imports is a blurry image of each clip. There's no audio and no video...how can I import MXF files into Final Cut Pro?

at the end, you say "import preferences", which program are you describing?
So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
vs
using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?
Is there anything i can do in fcp to make this footage more reliable or safer or more stable as i pull remotely from iphoto?
All the footage, and all the libraries to all programs, or on a new pegasus 12tb raid 5 setup fyi.

How do I select all clips in a large project with out individually select each clip?

I have a large project with ~1000 clips (still jpgs). My question is how do I select all of the clips without individually selecting each clip?

Chris
Thanks for the reply with additional information.
The suggestion given would be applicable to your Premiere Elements 12 on Windows 7.
As an aside, have you updated 12 to 12.1 yet? If not, please do so using an opened project's Help Menu/Update. The major perk of the update
is that it corrects an Expert workspace Text/Style issue. There are other less defined advantages included.
Please let us know if the suggestion for Select All worked for you.
Thanks.

Background noise removal takes about 3 seconds into each clip in timeline to kick in, so each clip has noise in the first few seconds. How do you get this to remove noise from the very start of the clip?

How do I set the length of each clip?

I have just begun trying to build a video with Premiere Elements 10
I have created many videos with Windows Movie Maker..found it boring for Effects etc.that's why I have this new software.
Now my question is ..How do I set the time for each clip?
I like to add a clip that goes with each lyric in the song.
Thanks.

Welcome to the forum.
As Steve points out, that is "editing."
One can use either of two Tools in PrE, to Trim the Clip to suit.
First, one can Dbl-click on the Clip in the Project Panel to open it in the Source Monitor, which looks a bit like the Program Monitor, but it has the In & Out Point settings. When that Clip has been Trimmed, as needed in the Source Monitor, just drag it to the Timeline.
Or, one can drag the Clip to the Timeline, and then click+drag on the Head of the Clip to set its In Point, and on the Tail, to set the Out Point.
Good luck,
Hunt

How do I change viewing time of each clip?

I am creating my first movie from a series of stills. I need to adjust the number of seconds of viewing for each clip but can't remember how to do this from my session with personal projects
Can anyone help?

Gotcha, sorry, I'm guessing you are referring to Windows Autoplay. This should do it:
Type regedit into your search bar and bring up Registry editor. Go to the the very top with My Computer. Now go to Edit and Find. Type in the whole offending name that is bugging you, i.e. Soandso's iPhone and hit find. After it searches your registry and finds the first name select it and Edit the Name. I copy/pasted it for all the next steps. After you have found the first name don't stop there. Use F3 to find next Name in registry and So on and so fourth until you have replaced every offending name in your whole registry with the Name you want to show up i.e. Tom's iPhone or whatever? Repeat all of these steps if you have more than one name showing up in your devices? Worked 100% for me. Close regedit and reboot (very important for changes.) Plug your iPhone back in and enjoy all your names back to normal.

How do i show time/date stamp at start of each clip

This may be a camera issue, not imovie, not sure. My (sony dcr-hc21) camera records but doesn't show time/date at start of each clip (my old non-digital camcorder used to show them for a few seconds). is there a way to get imovie to show these time stamps? I'm using imovie 3.0.3.

Hi r
There are no stright forward - cost free way to get this to my knowledg.
- I think You can buy a plug-in for this. (Not sure)
- A quality redusing way is to copy from camera via analog cable to a
VHS-VCR then reimport to a fresh miniDV tape and using this. If You
just want some sec. with date and time You can cut between old and
new material but the quality change will be more noticable this way.
- Some people has two miniDV cameras and do an analog connection
via them. Smart.

How to reduce the time for each clips up to 0,04 seconds?

Hi, I'm trying to realize my first time laps. I've need to reduce the time for each clips up to 0,04 seconds, but it seems that the minimum time is 0,1 second. There's a solution?

And use a zip file. Many people can't open RARs.

Renaming Individual Clips

Hello, everyone. I have no idea how this happened, but whereas before I would be able to cut up a clip and rename each segment individually, now when I name one segment, ALL of them are changing to that name. It's driving me up the wall. How can I get FCP to NOT rename each video clip to the new name I place on another clip? BTW, this is only happening to the video clips. The audio clips are retaining the different names put on them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much,
Javier Calderon

Thank you both Jerry and Nick. Making a subclip is definitely a way to do it, and I remember now. I tell you what, however: I was previously simply control clicking on the clip in the timeline and going to Item Properties and renaming the clip right there . . . and it was working just fine before . . . It's not anymore . . . It seemed sooo easy to do it that way. The subclip method does indeed work, but since I'm renaming quite a few clips, it would be great if I could make it as streamlined a possible.
Thanks!

How do I recerence Movie Clips on the Main Timeline from inside a class?

Hey everyone, this might be a stupid question but I thought
I'd ask cause it's making me nuts. I'm all of 2 days into AS3
(coming from not using Flash at all in YEARS) so feel free to
consider me ignorant. I do have plenty of application development
experience in other areas though.
I can't seem to create a class that can reference an instance
of a movie clip on my main timeline. I'd post code of what I've
tried but I've gone through so many desperate edits & wild
guesses that it was just garbled junk before I deleted it all.
Basically here's how I figured Flash could work, though maybe
it doesn't work this way at all.
I'm assuming that with AS 3 being so big on being a true
object oriented environment, I wouldn't need to mix my code and
interface together. Preferably I'd be using the Flash authoring
tools just to design my interface. Create a button... place it
somewhere... give it an instance name. Roughly the equivilant of
Apple's InterfaceBuilder for those of you that might be familiar
with Cocoa development. I can see maybe having to put a few lines
of ActionScript onto frame 1 (though really I'm hoping Flash would
have a better method of kicking off the application at this point
that using code tied to frames) to load my classes & such, but
after that I'd like all of my code to be held in external class
files.
So maybe I've got:
Interface.fla - My interface
Button_1
Button_2
TextField_1
Main.as - My main controller class using to handle all of my
applications behavior
SomeClass.as - Some helper Class
SomeOtherClass.as - Some helper Class
Main.as would have instructions in its initialization method
to go ahead & attach events to buttons & initialize
anything else that needs to happen when the application starts.
From there on it would all be objects communicating back &
forth. Button_1 would get clicked with would fire
Main.someMethod(). Main.someMethod() would then do it's thing and
set the value of TextField_1. All very clean & code is very
separated from interface.
Unfortunately I can't for the life of me figure out how AS3
classes reference each other like that. There doesn't seem to be
any kind of a global 'root' or '_root' I can use to locate any
movie clips on the stage. I've searched the help & the web for
any kind of simple tutorial but to no avail. My job has tasked me
with building a flash app for a project but I'd really rather not
have a tone of ActionScript just shoved into frame 1. That just
seems... ugh! (::shudder::)
Can someone maybe point me in the right direction here? I'm
really willing to do my homework but I can't seem to locate the
info I need to get started. Also, is there an ActionScript IRC
channel or something maybe?
Thanks,
Cliff

I worked with the problem last night and the solution I
started coming to involved creating my own custom document class
based off which extends MovieClip. My thought is that way I have
access to the initialization routine of the timeline itself and
that all of the elements on the main timeline should be
"properties" of my custom class.
Is this correct? Is there a down side to doing this & if
so what is it & why?
Also, just for my reference, the last time I did anything
with ActionScript I think I was using '_root' to target the main
timeline. WHat are the global variable names in AS 3? Is it just
'root' & 'stage' or 'Root' & 'Stage' or what?
