HOw to cut up a video into separate tracks?

It's been a while since i used iMovie, so I can't remember what term I would need to look up in the help section. I have a hour long home movie that I want to cut up and use only certain portions in my final video. Each portion will then become a new track on the DVD that can be accessed via the DVD menu. How would I go about this?
Thanks

There are two ways to do this in iMovie 09
1) Use Chapter Markers
2) In the Project Library View, select the project and then click FILE/DUPLICATE PROJECT. Do this as for as many copies as you need. Then to create a shorter portion, delete the clips you do not need for that portion.
If you are open to using another application, you can Share your movie in iMovie. Then use QuickTime Pro ($30) or MPEG Streamclip (free) to split the movie.

How can I divide a video into separate clips?

I need to take video that I have been given and divide it into ten second intervals in order to collect data from each clip (for behavioral analysis and research). I know nothing about using video editing software but if I can learn how to do it right I will have a new job, so I really am motivated to learn!
Thanks in advance,
Sandi

Maybe you dont have to :divide" it. (eg cut it up into ten second clips.)
Maybe a running clock super imposed onthe footage will be a better way for your goal.
We can tell you how to do either...but you do need the basics * edit and application fundamentals) before starting anything.
Dont be daunted at the start. Its easier than it looks

Panasonic P2HD how do i get the video into Final Cut Express.

I have a Panasonic P2HD video camrea how do i get the video into FCE.

You can't. FCE doesn't support DVCPRO HD. You'd have to convert it to the Apple Intermedia Codec in some other sofware. FCE also probably doesn't support the frame resolution the P2 media is using.

How can I convert DVD- video into Apple's format so that it can be played and streamed from my Mac?

How can I convert DVD- video into Apple's format so that I can play the content on my Mac and also stream it to my Apple TV? A few years ago, I transferred all of my home videos onto DVD but now would really like to put these onto my Mac and stream them through Apple TV to watch on the "big screen". Any advice would be most welcome!! Thanks

MPEG Streamclip.
Apple do not have their "own" format. You need to convert your DVDs to H.264 though.

I loaded video from an external hard drive to my desktop. How do I import the video into iMovie 09? I tried "Import Camera Archive". Didn't work.

It depends on the type of video. iMovie will only import video that it can edit.
In general, you would use FILE/IMPORT MOVIE...

Can you tell us what you actually mean by "iMovie09 copies videos but doesn't import"?
If you have got your video into iMovie then it has imported it.Are you able to see your video in the Event Browser?

Cropping Video into Separate Files

Hi,
Is there any way to crop videos into separate files in iMovie?
Thanks!

in short: no.
the free 30d trial of FCPX would easiely allow to crop the video.
or,
free Mpeg Streamclip offers a crop feature too.
keep in mind:
resolution gets axed by 75% doing so => dramatic quality loss.

How to split one long file into multiple tracks?

I have a single-file recording of a vinyl record (containing multiple sequential tracks) that I want to export to multiple separate tracks. Is it possible to take thisfile of audio, add markers to it and export that file from multitrack view into separate tracks? I know its possible to do it using markers and to export a CD list and the burning to CD, but can you export to multiple gapless WAV files instead, with the markers as track/split points?
I am not burning to CD, just wanting to keep the tracks as files.

Once you have added your markers and merged as for making a CD you can then use the Batch Process Marker Regions (next icon along from the Merge icon in Marker list) to save out the marked regions as individual files.

How do I import GoPro video into Final Cut Pro X?

I'm about to purchase Final Cut Pro X (10.1.4). Will I be able to import my GoPro files? Do I have to convert them to another file type? Has anybody imported GoPro video into their projects? I believe that GoPro Studio can convert the video files into GoPro Cineform files that you're supposed to be able to import into 3rd Party Applications such as Final Cut Pro X.
If you have any advice, I would very much appreciate it.
Thanks,
Kiki

I just copy the Gopro MP4 files on to a hard drive then import the media into a FCPX library. I have had no issues with dealing with GOPRO videos, but I am running a Hero 2 and a hero 3+. I am no expert on it, I just do it.

Cutting up a video into different events using iMovie

I have just imported a large homemade video into iMovie which is just one file but contains footage taken from various holidays I have been on. Is there a way to separate the video into different events under the Event Library? I seem to be having trouble working out how to do it.

It is possible in the event library, but I would suggest that you do it in an app called MPEG Streamclip. It will be much faster and easier to do it using MPEG Streamclip.
Download MPEG Streamclip here.
http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
Drag your large file into MPEG Streamclip.
Now, set your playhead to the beginning of the first event, and type i for in point. move the playhead to the end of this clips, and type o for out point. Then, use FILE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME. Choose Apple Intermediate Codec as your codec. (Note: if your original clips are in DV, you may wish to stick with DV. Otherwise use Apple Intermediate Codec, and don't change any of the settings. Give it a name and location. You can import this into an iMovie Event using FILE/IMPORT MOVIE in iMovie.
Repeat this until you have all the clips you need.

How to make a 2d video into a 3d video (the 3d you view with 3d glasses!)

hey, i know this isn't so much of a specific question on Final Cut Pro, but i figured if there was anywhere to ask people this question, it would be on here...
i've tried googleing this and looking it up on yahoo and i cant find anything on it anywhere. i was wondering if anyone knows a way to make an already 2d video into a 3d video.
i know i could make it in 3d if i use two cameras only seperated about 3 inches, but i wanted to know if there was a way to take an already 2d video and make it into a 3d video.
let me know if anyone knows a way to do this or if you have a link to a site to explain how to do this, thanks!!

This will do it for you:

How Do I Get Home Videos into iTunes?

I have 6 home videos that I want to put into iTunes....both the iTunes library on the hard drive and the iTunes app. I had them in there but for some reason they got mixed up and I deleted them. I have the copies so how do I get them into the iTunes library on my hard drive and into the itunes app so I can look at them.
It is such a mess and I'm trying to make my question as simple as possible. Here is one thing that happens...when I tried to put the videos into iTunes they went into a folder called Home Videos. But there is no folder on iTunes called Home Videos....it is called Movies which is where the videos were before. There is no place for me to access a folder called Home Videos because there isn't one. And, If I access the old Movie Folder it is empty. The Movie folder is permanent....put there by iTunes so I can't delete it and add add one called Home Videos.
Can anyone straighten out this mess? The only good news is that I still have copies of the home videos...they were not deleted.

Drag them into the library folder.

How do I place a video into Muse?

I have converted a .mov file to .swf file. When I place it into Muse I get the box with the Flash f in top left coner, but when
I preview the page there is no video.
I have a swf file directly from flash that is animated with audio and it shows. What is the diference in the files and how do I get the video to run?

It's strange it's not working, but it was a long time ago I imported a Flash animation into Muse. However i strongly recommend if it's not too much trouble to try and rework it into Adobe Edge Animate as this creates an .oam version (animated directly into HTML 5 compliant code) and works perfectly across all browsers.
Failing that try the following link to the W3C schools website as you might be able to link their HTML code to your video.
(http://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_av_dom.asp)
And lastly, if all that fails and it's for example an animation portfolio; upload it to YouTube and copy the HTML embed code and that always works really well.
