I want to change a clip in a saved project

Here is my actual question. I am putting together a project and I wish to individualize it presentation to the specific people I am presenting to. Therefore, 100% of the imovie will be the same. Only 1 clip (where I mention the party I am presenting to) will be unique. How can I either duplicate a project without having to recreate everything before I save it. OR how can I edit or change one clip is a project after I save it.
I simple terms I want to make 10 copies of the exact same thing with ONLY the first clip being unique and don't want to have to redo the entire thing each time.

Yes, you need to change the datasource that your Application Module is connecting to.
- Right-click on your App Module and click Configurations...
- Select the configuration that your view controller uses (usually <App Module name>Local)
- Click Edit...
- Change the connection type/name to the desired connection
- Click all the OK's
- Test it

Changing a clip in FCP imbedded seq for Motion??

So I've built my sequence in FCP. I've sent it to Motion. I get the Motion sequence almost done and discover I want to change a shot in the sequence.
When I got back to FCP I've now got the imbedded FCP\Motion sequence.
Is there any way to OPEN that sequence and change a shot?
Or. If I change the shot in Motion, what happens to the shot in the original imbedded sequence in FCP?
All ears...
Ben

Hi Mark,
Intriguing. So I went into the seq. FCP had created to match the Motion project. I changed three clips. Now I come back to the .motn clip on the FCP timeline. No changes have appeared there, nor in Motion.
So changing the clips in the FCP saved Motion seq. (in the Browser) did not seem to change the clips in the imbedded FCP.motn seq on the master timeline, nor the clips in Motion.
Did I misunderstand your directions? Or am I missing a step somewhere?
And I know I can change the clips in the Motion project itself, but how is this going to affect the FCP.motn sequence on the master FCP timeline?

Problem with importing a clip from another iMovie project

Hello
I want to import a clip from one iMovie project to another iMovie project.
Both projects are in 16:9, but when I import a clip it's no longer in 16:9.
The clip is croped and I have a black bar on the right and left side.
How can I solve this ?

Have you tried Copying the clip in Project A and Pasting it into Project B?
When you Copy and Paste clips, try to Copy and Paste all at the same time. More here:

Rs to do, and I selected the font for each 4s clip - now I want to change the font - is there a way to change all fonts on clips in one go?

Hi I am new to iMovie - and made a 35min film - quite pleased with it - I sub-titled it right through coz we work with deaf people - wanted my first movie to be accessible. Now I want to change the font on each clip - can I do this in one step - and change all the sub-titles to a different font - thanks a lot, Jane

Maybe some one else can pipe up with a solution, but this would literally take 2 seconds to do for a new project. And you can create a "template project" that includes this "text" clip. Save this project and then to a get info and check "stationary pad." When you double click on this file, fcp will open with a copy of this project and you just need to do a save as.
I've been working with computer editing systems for longer than i can remember and at a certain point you just have to adapt your workflow to the limitations of the software.

In imovie, I have greenscreen clip. First I want to change background to solid color THEN add a picture within picture. When I try to stack all 3, I get two but not all three.....help! thanks!

in imovie 10.0.2, i have a green screen clip. first i want to change background - solid color probably - but then i'd like to also add a picture within picture along side the video....have attempted to "stack" all three, and can get two out of three but not all three....what's the trick? thanks!

In iMovie you can only do two at a time. So the work-around would be to do the green screen/change background color part. Then Share this. Then import this piece back into an event. Then add the picture in picture.
In Final Cut Pro X, you could easily do what you are describing.
The main reason is that iMovie does all rendering in one pass. Final Cut Pro X allows multiple renders as you go along, so you can do much more complex effects.

I recently had some 8mm film transferred to DVD. I am trying to edit the film clips using Premier Elements 4.0. so I can reburn the films on a single BluRay disc. Some of the film clips copy into the project but others don't. I tried copying the VOB filed onto my hard drive and then changing the file extensions on the VOB files to MPEG but this was no help. Some of the VOB files contain numerous film clips but my software does not appear to be able to recognize them as such. I need to know if replacing my old Premier Elements with the new Version 13 would solve this problem or not. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

What do you have now.....
What computer operating system do you have?
We can go into the finer points of source and your intentions, but for now it would appear that you are using SD 4:3 source media to get to a HD 16:9 result. Lots to discuss in this regard.
What was given to you on the DVD disc? DVD-VIDEO 4:3 or something else?
If DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, you should expect to find on the disc a folder named VIDEO_TS. That is your target for your video files.
If you were given a DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, then all you want from it are the video files, specifically
VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VOB, and so on through that series until possibly getting to
VTS_02_1.VOB, and so on. How many files you have beyond the VTS_01_1.VOB file will depend on the size of the DVD-VIDEO.
Does the above scenario apply to you?
The alternative might be someone giving a DVD disc (data disc) which contains just the VTS files mentioned which were copied from
the VIDEO_TS Folder. So, you do not get the whole VIDEO_TS Folder, just the essential video files. Does this scenario apply to you.
I see no need to replace your Premiere Elements 4 with a later version unless you have a huge project and need a later version that will be a 64 bit application running specifically on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit computer.
Consider...Premiere Elements 4 and if you have DVD-VIDEO on DVD....
1. Place the DVD disc in the burner tray
2. Open Premiere Elements 4 and set the project preset for NTSC DV Standard (assuming you are working in a NTSC setup)
3. Go to
Get Media
"DVD, Digital Camera, Mobile Phone, Hard Drive Camcorder, Card Reader"
"Adobe Premiere Elements - Media Downloader" and its Advanced dialog.
Set the Source in the latter dialog for the drive which has your DVD disc inserted in its tray
You should see your VTS_01_1.VOB thumbnail in the "Adobe Premiere Elements - Media Downloader" Advanced dialog.
With this VOB selected, click on Get Media to get the file from there into the project.
Should work fine.
Complications may be involved if the people who processed your footage gave you something other what is described above.
Please review and consider, and then we can plan our project strategy accordingly.
Thank you.

How do I change a clip from say, side by side to picture in picture without deleting the clip then reinserting it

I'm creating an iMovie '11 project and added a side by side video clip but now I want to change the side by side to a picture in a picture. The only way I now know is to delete the clip, then replace it and when I do that, the advanced tools window opens and I can pick. Is there a way to open that window when the clip is already in place?

I also have this question. Avid lets you change the frame up/down - to/from a dissolve point. In other words, I could have a dissolve go "up" at, for example, 5 frames, and then "down" at, say, 15 frames. As it stands now, FCPX only allows you the same amount of frames on either side of the cross-dissolve. (A 30-frame dissolve is split 15 frames on either side of the transition.)
Other NLE's give you the option for a dissolve to occur at the BEGINNING, in the MIDDLE (STANDARD CROSS-DISSOLVE) or at the END of a transition. (Depending, of course, on if you have the "handles" to execute the transition,)
Can we achieve this in FCPX? Is this where we launch the "precision editor?"

I want to change my microsim and cannot open the slot??

I want to change my microsim. How can I open the slot?

Page 12 of the User Guide:
The micro-SIM card in some iPad Wi-Fi + 3G models is used for cellular data. It’s also
known as a third form factor (or 3FF) SIM. If your micro-SIM card wasn’t preinstalled or if
you change cellular data carriers, you may need to install or replace the micro-SIM card.
Open the SIM tray:
1 Insert the tip of the SIM eject tool into the hole on the SIM tray.
Press firmly and push the tool straight in until the tray pops out. If you don’t have a
SIM eject tool, you can use the end of a paper clip.
2 Pull out the SIM tray to install or replace the micro-SIM card.

Can you change still clip duration default setting?

I create wedding videos, and at the end of my movie I add about 100 still clips as edited highlights. In older versions of imovie you were able to alter the length of still clips created in the preferences to whatever time you wanted. In this newer (better?!?) version when I have created all my still clips I have to click on each one individually to alter the time duration. The default setting is 5 seconds and I can't find anywhere that you can change this. It takes me AGES to do this individually, anybody got any ideas of a better way? Cheers.

I can't necessarily recommend this for it can lead to project corruption. It's possible to manually edit the text of the iMovie project file, changing the playtime duration of all your still clips to the duration you want.
1. In iMovie, double-click on one of your still clips. Write down the name of its source file. Quit iMovie 6.
2. In the Finder, make a duplicate of the project. Work on the duplicate.
3. In the Finder, open the duplicate project package. (Control-click on the project icon and choose "Show Package Contents" from the popUp menu.)
4. You'll see two iMovie project files loose in the window that opens, plus some folders. One of the project files has a tilde (~) in its name and one does not. Our goal is to edit the file that does NOT have the tilde. (The tilde file is type of backup.)
5. Launch TextEdit. (In your Applications folder.) Drop the non-tilde project file onto the TextEdit icon in the Dock.
6. Use TextEdit's search function to search for the string that defines the play-time of each still clip, now 5 seconds. For PAL, that string is "<integer>125</integer>". For NTSC, it is "<integer>150</integer>".)
7. For each still, you want to change the 125 to some other number. For PAL, the number you want is 25 X the number of seconds to play.
If the only clips in your project that play for 125 are your stills, you can safely use the Replace All command to replace all with the strings at the same time. Be sure to include the tags <integer> and </integer.
If there are others that play for 5 seconds, you'll need to examine each clip individually, using the sample name you wrote down to see if the clip uses a similar name.
8. Save the modified file and close that TextEdit window.
9. Go back to the Finder and double-click on the project package to open it in iMovie 6. If everything worked as intended, all your stills should play with a new length.

How do I change the clips in my Sequence from DV to 1280x720 422?

Hello newbie-ish question here --Is there a way I can get a sequence back to the original footage's 1280x720 Apple 422 format from 720x480 DV? I thought it was set correctly but the default is DV and that's the way the sequence got edited. How can i get it back to 1280x720 Apple Pro Res 422? Thanks

HI -
Create a new sequence.
Drag any one of your 1280x720 camera source clips to it. FCP will ask if you want to change the sequence settings to match the source. Say yes. Click on the clip that you just placed on the timeline and delete it. You now have an empty sequence with the proper sequence settings.
Now return to your DV timeline, and clicking anywhere on it, type Command -A to select all the clips.
Type Command - C to copy them.
Now go to the new (empty) sequence you created with the proper settings, click anywhere in it and type Command - V to paste the clips from the DV sequence.
If the video clips to not fill the canvas of your new sequence, then select all the video clips and Control - Click on any one of the selected clips. From the drop down menu choose Remove Attributes and from the Remove Attributes window that open, select the check boxes for Basic Motion and Distort and click OK.
Post back if this does not work for you.

Want to change ALL photos in finished project from 'Tint' to 'Color Tint'

Is there an easier way to change all photos that have a 'tint' effect to another effect without having to manually go into each image?
I have a nearly finished 90 min doc that has a plethera of stills that I have added a 'Tint' from Image Control effect. However I have found that in many of my dissolves there seems to be some green frames thrown in the mix, (ONLY within the dissolve?) Anyhow, I found a work-around:
By changing the original tint effect from dropdown----Effects; Video Filters; Image Control; Tint
to
Effects; Video Filters; Quicktime; Color Tint.
For whatever reason, this corrects my random 'green frame' action.
So does anyone know if there is some kind of batch edit that I can do, that recognizes all the images w/ Tint and change it to Color Tint in felt swoop?
If not in FCP 5.1.2, maybe in 6?
Thanks,
Zack

hi,
boring but you can add the effect to the first still. Then apple -C it. Then select all the clips you want to change (apple-click will select no contigous clips) then select Remove Attributes from the edit menu. Select the Filters checkbox. Then select Paste Attributes from the edit menu. Select filters again and you're done.
hope this helps

Black screen when wanting to change settings?

Why do i get a Black screen when wanting to change settings?
while in preview of a photo and ask for settings, i get black, rather than the photo.

It sounds like your project has been bitten by the iMovie bug that discards iMovie's copy of the photo. Without that photo, iMovie can't update your previously-rendered clip. You get black.
It's described here:

Once you add background music, but then want to change it, how do you delete background music?

Oncxe you add background music to i-movie, then want to change it, how do you delete audio clip?

If you are referring to music you added to the timeline in iMovie simply click the green audio clip to select it. Once it has a yellow border around it you can use the delete key on keyboard or the edit->cut menu command. Now drag in your new audio file as you did on the original.
If you are referring to background music that was in the original video file then place your cursor over the middle of the green audio waveform below the video and a double arrow will appear. Hold down your left mouse button and drag down to mute the audio. You can now drag in your new audio from iTunes and drop it below the video, dragging it to where you want it in the timeline.
