How to cut useless sequences in footage?

Hi
Using Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014. I guess this is a very basic question (new to this), but I cannot seem to find info about it.
I have som footage clips where most of the clip is useless. I simply want to cut theese clips down to the usefull part before I start up the video project.
Is this not possible. (I do not mean editing the footage/source in Premiere - simply removing unwanted sequenses in the footage clips)
Hope you know how to
best regards

I'm intrigued as to how an insentient machine would know what parts are wanted and which are not.  However...
You can place the original material on the timeline, set the in/out points to the first section you want to keep and export it as a sub-clip.  Then move the in/out points to the second section you want to keep, export that as a sub-clip, etc, etc, etc.
When you have made sub-clips from all the sections you want, import them into the project and delete the original material, as it will be STR.
However, you are duplicating your workload - because including only those pieces you want to include in the final edit is exactly what the editing process is all about

    How do I revert to original footage in Final Cut Pro X version 10.0.9?
    For some reason I have lost some audio in my timeline and would like to start again but cannot get the original footage?
    Only the edited version which is no good without the audio?
    Please  Help

    What format is your problem clip? Are there wave forms visible in the section without sound?
    Right click on the clip in the event broswer and choose Reveal in Finder; open the clip in Quick Time to confirm that there is sound throughout at that stage of your workflow.

  • How to cut between clips?

    I'm not sure how to cut between two clips in a sequence.
    I uploaded a screencast documenting my frustrations: http://youtu.be/gIMspPJxXF4
    After uploading and carefully reading Cutting Two Camera Shoot and watching Multicamera Editing in Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 - YouTube which is slightly outdated since Multicamera UI is now hidden in the Program monitor settings, I did manage to make an edit that switches between my GoPro of my head and my screencast. But I did find the whole "Multicamera" process a bit long winded. Am I missing a trick?
    Furthermore on the same sequence I found it impossible to apply a Fade to white transition to both the screencast and video of my head at the same time. Maybe I'm not versed in selections.

    Wow, that was confusing watching those videos. There's a couple ways to quickly set up and run a multicam switch in PPro CC 2014 but here's how I do it:
    1) Sync up your clips. Align them how you want either using plural eyes or just do your own visual/audio sync (premiere has it's own audio sync which you can google how it works but I've found it not 100% accurate)
    2) Hold down ALT and select only the video clips you want to cut between.
    3) Right click on those highlighted clips and select NEST
    4) That creates one nested clip on video track 1. (Because of the way I do this it still leaves the audio visible from all the cameras/sources below so they can be accessed right on that timeline.) Now right-click on that nested video track and select MULTICAM>Enable.
    5) Now go to the PROGRAM window/panel and hit the + button on the bottom right. You'll see one icon that looks like windows, drag that out to the project panel so it stays visible always.
    6) Click on that little window icon (if you hover over it, it should say multicam window or something like that). Now you'll see all the cameras at once and also another window that shows what camera is "live". It's ALL in the Program window now ever since the last few versions of Premiere.
    7) Basically just hit play and start clicking on those little camera windows in that program monitor/panel as the video plays and it will record all your cuts. When you hit stop or pause, you'll then see all those cuts populate your video track. Done super easy.
    8) To change a cut after you've stopped the playback you can bring the play head over the clip you want changed and then just click on the camera window that you want to change it to. Also, using the "n" or nudge tool helps you drag the cut or edit points forward or back in time.
    Hope that helps! Enjoy!

  • How do i make sequence folders in Premier Pro CC?

    I have only begun using Premiere Pro CC, and I want to know how to make different sequences in the same timeline with the same audio & video clips, so I don't have to save a new file and start all my editing all over again everytime I want to try out a different edit. I asked a friend who has used Final Cut Pro , and Premiere CS6, and she says there should be something called 'Sequence Folders' where you create a new tab for each different edit on the same timeline. However she cannot find where you create the sequence folders in CC like you used to in CS6. I'm sure it's probably a simple button or command hidden in plain sight. Can anyone tell me if this function is still available in CC please?

    It sounds like you just want to create copies of your original sequence.
    One of the ways to do that is to right click the original sequence (before you make any edits) and right click > copy.  The right click  in the media panel or in a folder in the media panel and then paste it as many times as you want copies.
    Another way would be to create new sequences and copy and paste the media from the original sequence into those new sequences.

  • How to get selected sequence in a file

    Hello,
        I can get the selected sequence file by accessing the RunState.InitialiSelection.SelectedFile property. However, if i want to get the name of the sequence that was selected in this sequence file, then how can i get that?
    Thanks,
    Regards,
    Aparna

    Hello,
       Sorry, i saw this thread a little late. My question is still the same. The solution that you gave actually gives me the display name of the sequence file. But i wanted the name of the sequence that was opened withtin the sequence file. Here is what i have.
    A sequence file named TestExport.seq has two sequences  - MainSequence and SecondSequence. I open up the sequence file and open the SecondSequence in that file. But i dont know how to get this information about the sequence that is selected within the file. I have an external dll, in which i am passing the sequence file name as RunState.InitialSelection.SelectedFile. But i do not know how to get the sequence name that was actually opened in that file. Because i actually want to get the sequence context of the sequence within the file. The code that i have looks like this:
    public ExportDlg(SequenceFile seqFile)
                InitializeComponent();
                SequenceContext seqContext = seqFile.NewEditContext();
                engine = seqContext.Engine;
                object outParam = System.Type.Missing;
                this.seqContext = engine.NewEditContext(seqFile.GetSequence(0).AsPropertyObject(),System.Type.Missing,out outParam);
    seqFile.GetSequence(0) - gives me the context of the first sequence which is MainSequence. But if i have opened the SecondSequence, i need the context for that. And to get this, i need the sequence name "SecondSequence" somehow.
    RunState.InitialState.SelectedSequences is an array of containers. Although i can see the sequence name during executing, i do not know how to get the name of the container my external dll .
    Please help,
    Thanks,
    Regards,

  • Error message when cutting a sequence into a sequence

    When we try to cut a sequence into another sequence, we either get a nested sequence (the nest tool is turned off) or we crash with this error message:
    We are in Premiere Pro 2014.2 with our media on a server.  I moved the entire project to  my local drive and tried it that way but had the exact same result.
    I switched the General Settings and changed the Mercury Playback Engine to software only.  It did not help.  I have no unlicensed plug ins and cleared my media cache.
    I've spoken to the Adobe help line (!argh!) but he was unable to fix the issue.  He did delete all of my settings I was starting at the defaults.  This did not help either.
    Has anyone any experience with the above error message?
    Thanks.

    Yes.
    I see now that I can paste into the layer I am copying from, but not into any other layer. If I lock my source layer, I can't paste at all.

  • How to create a SEQUENCE in MSSQL2005

    Hi
    I am also having a similar problem which opened the thread
    Actually i am using a Repositery which is created in MSSQL2005.
    Now i want to create a SEQUENCE similar to Oracle and populate My surrogate Key Column.
    Can u tell me how to create a SEQUENCE in MSSQL2005?
    Does anyone is having the sql syntax?
    Thanks
    Gourisankar

    Hi Gourisankar,
    There is no sequence concept in MS SQL Server rather it has IDENTITY.
    In MS SQL Server if you declare a column type as a Identity it will be auto increment when a new record inserts.
    So in you underlying table create a column as ID and type as "Identity" and in your mapping leave that field un mapped.
    Have a look and google more on "identity in ms sql server" ;)

  • How to display a sequence in item?

    hi! well, i don´t know how to display a sequence in item. i created a sequence in sqlworkshop. now i want what the sequence will display in item(for example :P8_COD_SERVICES). I HOPE ANSWER. BYE
    (AH! I TRYNG IN ITEM.DEFAULT VALUES BUT NOTHING)

    Alvaro,
    Maybe the item source type could be SQL Query and the query would be: select seq.nextval from dual. Or you could have a before-header page computation do the same thing for the item.

  • How to setup the sequence order's of PO's vision instance

    I need to create PO's in a sequential order in vision instance. How should I do that?
    Thanbks
    regards,

    Hi,
    We have already mentioned how to create PO sequence in earlier post in this thread...
    You need to follow below steps:
    1) Login to Purchasing Super user
    2) Open "Purchasing Options" form.. (Setup --> Organizations --> Purchasing Options)
    3) In Document numbering section, do mention the details of PO Number, like PO Entry (Manual/Automatic), PO Number type (Numberic/Alphanumeric), Next number (e.g. 10000)
    For your case use Next Number : 100000 (6 digits)
    4) Save
    5) Return to PO creation page and start creating POs.
    Hope this will help.
    Kind Regards,

  • How can I clean up old footage in FCPX?

    How can I clean up old footage in FCPX? I have some older 4x3 TV analog video that has some pretty noticeable noise and fuzz in the image. Anyone know how I can clean them up a bit? Thanks!

    FCP X doesn't ship with a noise reduction filter. You can experiment with selective blur effects and sharpening, but I would not be very optimistic about the results.
    There are a number of plug-ins available. One that I think works well is Neat Denoiser. They have a trial  version (with watermarked output) that you could download to see whether it will do what you want.
    Good luck.

  • How to Create Test Sequence Document in HTML using command line

    How to Create Test Sequence Document  in HTML using command line
    I have lot of sequences and I want to create Test Sequence Documentation in HTML format using Command Line automatically, is there a way to automate this task using .bat file or using   C#  .Net

    If you aren't able to figure out how to call a C++ DLL in .net then there may be another option.  Unfortunately I don't know how to do this off the top of my head and I don't have an example.
    The other option would be to change docgen.seq a little bit to the dialog doesn't display and you just hardcode the options.  Then you can use a command line to call testexec.exe: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/370052K-01/tsfundamentals/infotopics/startup_opt/

    Jan, I have created the multi records it is fine,
    This is about how to get the sequence numbers,
    Lets say some one open one record and it have 5 detail records.
    if he is in second detail record and try to insert a new record i want to show
    Line id 6
    I was trying with
    SELECT nvl(MAX(LINE_PERIOD)+1,0) INTO l_LINE_PERIOD FROM XX_RATE_LINE RL
    WHERE RL.CUSTOMER_ID=:MSF_V.CUSTOMER_ID;
    if l_line_period>4 then -- we gave default 4 records
    bk_id := Find_Block('MSF_LINE');
    --last_record;
    :line_period := Get_Block_Property( bk_id, MAX_RECORDS_FETCHED)+1;
    --CURRENT_RECORD);
    --MAX_RECORDS_FETCHED
    end if;
    CURRENT_RECORD is good if some one navigating properly always into the last record.
