How do I select multiple clips in a timeline in the reverse direction, e.g. middle to front?

I know how to click "a" and select clips in the timeline looking forward, but how do we select multiple clips from a middle point to the front of the timeline?  I don't want to be lassoing -- is there some other way?

Hi denniscallan,
Please check the track selection tool. Refer to the link below for more information about the tools section.

  • How can I select multiple clips in the event browser?

    I can't seem to figure out how to do something that should be pretty simple. I want to select multiple clips in the event browser that aren't next to each other. Right now it's only letting me select the two clips with every other clip in between. Is there a keyboard function that will allow me to deselect the clips in between while leaving the two on the outside selected? In Apple's finder you can do this with files by holding down shift-command while clicking on the ones you want. Or is there away to rearrange clips in the event browswer?
    I'd like to be able to create a multicam clip, but there is always going to be other media in between the clips I want to combine, so how can I select only the clips I want?
    Thanks!

    Holding the Command key should let you select non-contiguous items, just as in the Finder.

  • How do you select multiple recipients without having to open the contacts list each time

    Just upgraded to Yosemite...not really impressed with the overall look but...can live it.  Using mail, if you did not want to send to an entire group, you could scroll through and select all the desired addresses at one time.  Now it appears that you have to click on the "plus sign", select one address, have it close then repeat the same process over and over.  Sorry, not an improvement if this is the way it is designed to work.   Any ideas on how to do this?
    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks for the input.  I am not sure why they changed the old system....is there any way to force the contact box to stay open?  Not being able to scroll down a list and select multiple selections is a big step back.  Hopefully Apple will get the message. 

  • How can I replace multiple clips in my timeline w/ an edited version of their original source file

    I have a single audio .wav file that I've already cut up and assembled in in my timeline. If I want to do a noise reduction for the full .wav file in Adobe Audition, is there a way to perform the noise reduction only once, on the original .wav file, and then ensure that the new "audio extracted" file replaces all of the related subclips in clips in my timeline? I'm trying to avoid performing the same noise reduction on multiple subclips, when they originally all came from the same file anyway. I also want to avoid the clutter of adding a bunch more "audio extracted" files to my media.
    In the future, I'll probably need to change my workflow so that I perform the noise reduction first! But in the meantime, is there a clean/ simple way to retroactively do the edit, and replace the edited .wav file with it's respective subclips?
    Thanks!

    This assumes that the .wav file in question
    is only used by itself on its own audio track.
    If there are other audio elements mixed on the track(s) along with
    the .wav file the OP wants to treat with noise reduction, this method
    will require "un-editing" the track(s) before you isolate for export.

  • How do I select multiple clips in the timeline!?

    Ok, not quite as simple as the subject! This is what I want to do:
    Just finished a multi camera edit and I now need to color correct and grade the footage. So, now that I've corrected the color on camera angle number 1 I want to apply that effect to all the clips in the timeline that come from that camera angle. How do I apply that effect to all those clips without having to do some manually. In FCP its possible to search for all timeline clips that come from a specific file. When those are highlighted it's possible to paste an effect onto all those clips.
    So, how do I do that in Premiere Pro CS5?
    Thanks!

    Had to create proxies of my Canon 7d footage to achieve smooth playback but it's worked out fairly well so far!
    I'm surprised that the DSLR Preset for the Canon footage still required proxy files. I thought that would handle the 5D/7D MOV files just fine. Maybe I was mis-informed.
    The good news is that it's working for you, so things are good.
    Good luck,

  • How do you select/move multiple clips from one timeline to another?

    Has to do with combining multiple edls from Avid - required due to an issue with duplicate reel names in the original Arri footage. I can move them one at a time, but it is very tedious. Is there a way to select multiple clips and move them together?

    Actually discovered the magic of the shift key.
    IRCP Beauty doesn't recognize multiple timelines in a session, so first you have to at least get the footage on multiple tracks in the same timeline. Shift + drag on the track will allow you to move it to another timeline. Also Shift + drag on the center of the first clip in a sequence will slide the entire sequence down - which is how timelines end up getthing offset all the time. Also, if there are multiple tracks in a timeline and some are locked and some aren't, Shift + drag on a clip will slide ALL UNLOCKED tracks in the timeline.
    Finally, Shift + click on either in or out marker moves both points up or down the timeline.

  • How to select multiple clips???

    I am a very avid iMovie user and now this new version has me so confused. I have the basics down, but I can't figure out how to select all clips and dump them into the "timeline" area. I can select them one at a time and place them in the assembly area but that takes forever on a one hour soccer game. Anyone figure out how to select multiple clips or all clips at once?
    Thanks ahead of time.

    Weird seeing this question today after I dealt with this yesterday. I did a movie yesterday that was multiple clips. I was able to select all clips at once and drag the entire thing up to the top window. I just tried to do the same thing again after reading this question and for the life of me, it will no longer allow me to click and drag to select them all. I wonder if this has something to do with the fact that all 10 or so clips I was able to highlight before, were all parts of the same clip when filmed (they were split into individual segments when imported). When I try to combine two clips that are not filmed sequentially, it will no longer allow it. The help menu says nothing about this. All it says is you need to click on the first clip and hold the mouse down and drag it to the end and it will select all. That is not working.

  • How to select multiple clips? "Help" is wrong.

    Hi. I've got iMovie 11 v 9.0.9.  "Help" is wrong in this version -  it says, to select multiple clips in the Events browser, hold down the command key while selecting - the normal thing, right?  - but it does nothing.  The first selection disappears, just as it would if you didn't hold the Command key down.  I've tried every combination of keys and click I can think of, and still no success.  Usually, when I can't get something to work and get frustrated with it, I find out it's my own fault and invariably what I've done is overthink the thing...with Mac it's always KISS.
    But I'm stuck.  Could someone please tell me how to do this?
    I'd really appreciate any help, thanks.
    Lynne

    No. In finder hold down the option key and in the GO menu select Library. In the window that appears Open the  Preferences folder then scroll down and find com.apple.iMovie.plist and com.apple.iMovie LSSharedFileList.plist and drag them to the trash. Do this with iMovie closed. Thenreboot and relaunch iMovie.

  • How can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

    how can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

    You do not want to edit material from different frame rates on one timeline. You CAN do this, but it is a very bad idea - and this is why.
    Once you establish the sequence frame rate - lets say it is PAL material at 25fps, any material that you drop into the sequence other than 25 fps will have to be changed to play at 25 fps. If the material you add is NTSC (29.97), FCP will DROP 5 frames per sec to bring the frame rate down to 25 fps. Which 5 get thrown away? Every 6th one. This yields a funky cadence that becomes even more complex as as there are also interlaced fields (DV/NTSC is an interlaced format). Oh, and by the way, the image sizes are different as well. DV/PAL has 576 lines of resolution and DV/NTSC has 480. FCP has to scale up the NTSC to fit the PAL frame.
    You do not want FCP adjusting these things on the fly. You want to do a thoughtful (and time consuming) conversion so that you end up with all your material in one format with the best possible image from the conversion process. Compressor can do an adequate job with Frame Controls turned on. The Natress Standards Conversion FCP plugin is another way to go. A third option is to find a post house that can do the conversion for you using a hardware based process.
    The good news is, once everything is in the same format, editing it will be painless and the output process very quick.
    Whatever frame rate/ image size you select, I'd suggest using ProRes for the codec. It is 4:2:2 color and will withstand color correction and composting with much more grace than any variant of DV based codecs.
    Have fun.

  • How do I add a video effect to multiple clips in my timeline at once?

    How do I add a video effect to multiple clips in my timeline at once?

    or... you can command click to select all the clips you want to apply the effect to, then double click the effect in the Effects browser. (PS - you can't simply drag and drop an effect on multiple clip selections, the effect will only be applied to the clip you drop it on -- but double clicking the effect will apply it to all selected clips at once.)

  • Is it possible to select multiple clips and create a sequence from each individually?

    Is it possible to select multiple clips and create a sequence from each individually?  If you select multiple clips and select "New Sequence from Clip" it puts all of the clips into one sequence.  Is there an easy way to quickly perform this on multiple selected clips separately? 

    So now I *have* used Butler with PPro, and it works very well, here's an idea of how to do it:
    Import folder of clips
    Ensure first clip selected in bin and sorted by Media Type
    Most of these commands need shortcuts assigning - mine listed below
    Macro:
    To create seq from selected clip:
      ‘New seq from clip’ (Shift+CMD+N)
    To duplicate this seq:
      ‘Reveal Sequence in project’ (Shift+F) - not strictly necessary as it will already be selected
      ‘Window | Project’ (CMD+9)
      ‘Edit | Duplicate’ (Shift+CMD+/)
    To rename the duplicate
      ‘Enter’
      Various keystrokes to rename as required
      ‘Enter’ - to make name stick
      ‘Shift+Enter’ - to reselect that sequence
      ‘Esc’ - to get out of editing name
    To change resolution of duplicate:
      ‘Sequence Settings’ (CMD+5)
      ‘Tab’ x 3 (to get to H Frame Size)
      ‘xxxx’ (to enter frame width)
      ‘Tab’ x 1 (to get to V Frame Size)
      ‘yyyy’ (to enter frame height
      ‘Enter’ x 2 as prompt will say previews will have to be deleted
    To then find next clip ready for macro to run again:
      ‘Open in Timeline’ (Shift+CMD+O)
      ‘Match Frame’ (Shift+Spacebar)
      ‘Reveal in Project’ (Shift+CMD+F)
      ‘Window | Project’ (CMD+9)
      ‘Down Arrow’ - to select next clip
    I tried it with Butler (manytricks.com - free trial, $20 to buy) and it worked a treat, takes about 3 secs per clip
    AHK (for windows) is at autohotkeys.com and is free.
    You could start making multiple macros - that would enable you to do grade / resize in middle of duplication - and then export etc, but I figure you can figure that out ;-)

  • Selecting multiple clips sealed off by other clips

    Hi,
    Im trying to figure out a way to select multiple clips in a track which is sealed off on all sides by other clips, so I can't just click and drag.
    I want to select the middle clips, without Ctrl+Click on all of the necessary ones.

    Click and Drag  Lasso does the same thing without having to Select a Tool.
    Locking and unlocking is 2 or 3 clicks.  About 2 seconds. You save one click  from not having to select a special tool to do this.
    How fast do you want to be able to do this and what will you do with the time you save?

  • How do you export multiple clips out of Premiere CC

    It's listed as a feature numerous times in the forums but I haven't been able to export cut down stock footage as individual clips. Can someone please direct me on how to do so.
    Thanks!

    Ahhh, yes.
    Adobe goofed on this one.  When you export a sequence, the default is properly set up for In to Out range.  But when you export a clip, the default is Entire Clip.  This makes NO sense to me.  Why would anyone want to create an exact duplicate?  It seems much more likely that exporting a clip, you want only the In to Out far more often.
    Unfortunately, there's no way to change this when selecting multiple clips.  You can only change that setting when you send a single clip.
    Please let Adobe know you want the default for Sequences and Clips to be In/Out range.
    https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
    In the mean time, I'm afraid you're stuck setting up one clip at a time.
    I'm on Windows, so I can't help with the ProRes issue.

  • How do you select multiple files to drag

    How do you select multiple files to drag from one folder to another? Is there a command?

    Open the folder which has the contents you want to transfer.  Press COMMAND 'A' and then all of the data should be highlited in blue.  Drag it to the new folder.
    If only certain files are to be transferred, then you have to select them (COMMAND 'A')  individually and the drag them as a group to the new location.
    Ciao.

  • How do you select multiple messages/conversations on SMS/MMS to forward or save to memory card on Samsung Stratosphere?

    How do you select multiple messages/conversations on SMS/MMS to forward or save to memory card on Samsung Stratosphere? 
    My screen is cracked and I need to replace my phone and I don't see a way of selecting multiple messages or even conversations one at a time to forward them to email or to save them to a memory card.  I can delete thread but can't forward it or move it.  Is there a setting somewhere that will move the storage location for messages to the memory card instead of internal?
    If not, any suggestions on backup apps?  I have heard of Txtract to back up SMS and MMS messages, and Titanium Backup to back up everything (SMS, MMS, apps, app data...).  Anyone have any experience with those, or other suggestions?
    Thanks!
