How to split one big master clip into many?

Hi,
This is probably a simple question for you pros. Thank you for reading.
I have film that I've telecined onto a DV. However, FCP imported a one hour tape as one big master clip. Is there a way I can split this master clip into several small clips so I can organize my project?
Does that make sense?
Thank you in advance,
Nik

Since you telecined onto DV I guess there are no Date&Time gaps between scenes, so you cannot use DV Start/Stop Detect. Then the only way I can think of is to do it manually: open the clip in the viewer, select the first scene by setting its IN and OUT points, edit to the timeline, back to the viewer select the next scene setting a new pair of IN and OUT points, edit to the timeline, etc.
If you prefer you can move each new clip to the browser, and collect them together into a bin, before editing them to the timeline.

  • How to split one big file in java

    Hi,
    I have some big files ( size about 100MB). I can't use them in my program, and I want to split them to some smaller files. The filesformat is XML, I am using the Xerces Paser.
    Any solution is welcome.
    Thanks

    What do you mean, split? Of course your parser can't deal with a 100MB XML file, it is building a tree representation in memory and you don't have that much memory. Solution: don't generate files that big.

  • How to SPLIT ONE STEREO TRACK'S L & R CHANNELS INTO TWO MONO CHANNELS

    Does anyone know if this is possible: How to SPLIT ONE STEREO TRACK'S L & R CHANNELS INTO TWO MONO CHANNELS?  There's got to be a way, but I just can't find out how.
    I recorded a podcast -- me and a guest, with each mic going to its own mono channel. When I opened it in Audition it mixed them into one stereo channel. 
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Best,
    Shawn 

    You're a big help! Thanks very much.  Simple yet I must be going blind because I didn't see that in the menu.
    Take care and THANKS AGAIN.

  • How do I insert a video clip into the timeline?

    Do you happen to know how I could insert a video clip into the middle of a movie like you do in FCP? Can you add tracks and insert the clip above the spot i need to change for each movie.
    I don't want to render the whole movie (convert it into a MPeg2) each time.

    No - DVD timelines are a little different to FCP. If you need to add a clip to the stream, you need to split the exisitng clip (you could trim it back to where you want to insert the new piece) and drag the new piece onto the same timeline. If you trimmed the existing piece then add another instance of it to the timeline and trim the new part from the left until you get to what you want as the out point.
    If you have a collection of video clips on your DVDSP timeline, simply dragging a new one on will shuffle the others along appropriately. However, the audio will not shuffle with them, and you'll end up moving it all manually.
    The very best thing is to create the timeline precisely as you want it in FCP and encode it to MPEG2 before bringing it in to DVDSP. Remember that DVDSP is not an editor, it is a place to assemble your work - it won't do anything remotely like FCP in that respect.

  • How do you cut an imovie clip into two clips?

    How do you cut an imovie clip into two clips?  I have a very long clip from which I want to remove the middle (and keep the beginnin and end). 

    There are several ways to do this. Here are a couple.
    1) Drag the long clip into your project. Drag to select the portion you want to remove. Then right-click/Split Clip. This will give you three clips, the first, the last, and the one in the middle that you want to delete. You can select the middle clip and right-click/Delete Selection.
    2) Drag the long clip into your project. Drag to select the frames you want to delete. Then right-click/Delete Selection.

  • PRE9: How to split one clip into two (or more) clips?

    I can't believe this is so hard to do... But HOW?

    You don't necessarily need to separate the file into individual clips.  When you do a cut on the timeline, this is a virtual cut, leaving the original file untouched but determining what will appear in the output.  You can split the clip into multiple pieces, delete the bits you don't want, add transitions, insert new bits, whatever you want, all without affecting the original file in any way.  Once you're happy, you output a new file using the Share options, and you get a new video file, with your original files still untouched.
    If you want to split your file into multiple individual files, you can use the sliders on the time scale, and export (Share) using the Share Work Area Only checkbox.  If you're doing this for purposes of reassembly, it would be better to save the individual clips in as lossless a format as possible, the default AVI format taking considerably more space but not losing quality.  Hint: the sliders can be positioned to the time marker using Alt-[ and Alt-].  Once you've done this, note that your original file will still be there, untouched.
    There is also VideoRedo Plus, a cheap program which gives frame-accurate selection and allows rapid subdivision of a piece of footage.  It doesn't re-render as PE9 would (this is where loss of image quality creeps in using compressed formats such as MPEG), copying the original frames.  You can then reassemble the bits using your video editor.

  • How to split one page into different frames in ADF?

    Hi,
    Can any one please guide me how to split a jspx into different frames.
    i.e., left frame contains <af:panelSideBar> which contains multiple <af:commandMenuItem> s. And whenver we click on the one <af:commandMenuItem>, it has to show the corresponing page inside center frame in this page itself. Is it possible in ADF? Which component we need to use?
    Can anyone guide me on this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards,

    You can use a combination of the ADF Faces 10.1.3 components like:
    af:panelPage
    af:panelSideBar
    af:panelHorizontal
    af:panelGroup
    to organize the screen layout, but it is not the interactive splitter that the 11g product provides.
    You can all all the 10.1.3 ADF Faces Components here:

  • How to break big video file into many small ones?

    I have a 1-hour long video file (miniDV), recorded on tape with timecode but without timecode markers between individual clips (that is, I cannot scene detect capture it). How do I best go about accurately breaking it up into individual video files on my disc?
    1) capture it, drag it into Timeline, cut into clips there, manually copy-paste the in-out data into a batch list. Takes lots of time.
    or
    2) capture it, open it in Source Window, make subclips, export the batch list. The problem here is that the timecode in the original file is weird, starting at 08;06;40;01, and all the subclips inherit it. Otherwise, it would probably take less time than option (1).
    or
    Is there any way to generate batch list from the timeline, in order to avoid time-consuming manual copy-pasting in-out data?
    Thank you!

    I don't understand how you can have timecode that won't allow you to use it to tell (something like scenalzer) to split on capture or whatever.  Just curious.
    Scene capture for DV footage isn't dependent on timecode, it's dependent on datecode/time-of-day (TOD) information written onto the tape. I've run into this problem before when the internal battery on a DV camera was dead, and so the internal TOD generator didn't function; the same time and date was written on every single frame, making it impossible to use automatic scene detection.
    Here's another option: drop your clip into a sequence, and split it (using the razor and trimming tools) where you want scene breaks. Be sure to trim at least a couple of frames off of either the tail of the outgoing clip or the head of the incoming clip. When done, go to Project > Project Manager, and use the "Create New Trimmed Project" option. Uncheck the "Include Handles" option, set your destination and hit OK. Premiere will create shorter trimmed versions of the original clip in the destination you specify, and also create a new project file that points to those trimmed versions; there is no quality loss, so don't worry about that. You can either use the generated project, or just import the split clips into a new project.

  • Trying to split one large audio file into tracks

    Hi;
    Awhile ago I mistakenly imported a CD into iTunes, as one large audio file, containing all 10 tracks. Now I'd like to know how to split this file back into it's separate tracks, and re-import into iTunes.
    Any thoughts?
    TIA.

    MP3 editor is a lossless editor for MP3 files.
    -> Fission, will do lossles editing of AIFF, WAV, MP3, AAc and Apple Lossless.
    You can do it yourself but the songs will be re-encoded (not lossless) but may not be a big deal.
    On the song, right click - get info. Click the Options tab and set the Start-Stop times for the first song.
    Then select the song, menu Advanced - Create AAC version {or whatever is selected in iTunes prefs -General - Importing}.
    This will create a new copy of the song between the time markers. Select the new song, righ click - get info and update the song title.
    Then on the original song, set Start-Stop times for the second song and menu Advanced - Create AAC version the for the 2nd song.
    Do this for all the songs in the original file.

  • How to split a parallell-page PDF into single-page PDF

    My situation: I have a few hundred pages of files I made quite a few years ago, optimized for "self-publishing" via the printer. I no longer have any source files (my own bad). These files have 2 pages next to each other in an A4 landscape PDF. I would like to change and combine these files into a US Letter portrait PDF.
    I have browsed earlier, similar threads, most notably the most referred to thread:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/3331516
    which recommends using Adobe PDF printer. However, as this thread points out, and as I for one have found on my own system (10.8.3), Adobe PDF printer is no longer an option on Mac OS X (version 10.6 and on):
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/556366
    So the question then is: How do we now split double-page landscape PDFs into single-page portrait PDFs?

    Since at least OSX.5 adobe has removed PDF Printer which was begining to fail it was written in Adobe's altered version of javascript and it was a wonder it was working to begin with They replaced it with an Automator action that's called up through the print Driver.
    Here are the steps for applications other than Acrobat.
    create you doucument. laying it out the way you want it.
    Go to Print menu.
    click and hold the pdf button - a context menu pops up.
    now scan the list of choices and choose Adobe PDF or Adobe Quality PDF (depends on version of OS)
    wait for direction fields to come up and make the desired choices (the first screen is basically job options).
    when asked ask for name either ecept name give or choose name of your choice.
    Browse to desired location for file
    then click save.
    How the PDF is layed out in acrobat is determinedby acrobat. Adobe add an additional Layer on top of the Print Driver. You can by pass it and use the Print Driver but if there is an orientation switch in your docment the page is turned so everything comes out with same edge of Paper
    Oh, look out for a Grand idea Adobe did that even Forest Gump would have left alone.
    If you want to do duplex printing to a PDF with more than one page you won't be able to do so whether you have your printer setup for duplex printing. You can go back and forth from printer setting s to Printer setting toggling off and on til you turn blue in the face. You have to go into the document properties and loo for a command called SIMPLEX printing its on by default and needs to be turned off. Even my cat Boots would be smart enough not to put that in.
    This settinging does not permanently turn off and you have to do with each document you create or resave.
