Importing clip notes

I have a 2 min film starting at timecode 01:00 on the timeline. I have exported clipnotes of just that 2 min section. The producer has made notes and returned the clipnote data file to me, When importing the comments to the sequence it places all the notes starting at timeline 00:00 making all the notes 1 min early. How can I import them so that they are in the correct place?

I'm getting the same problem. Audio is extremely tinny and sounds like garbage. Have tried all different settings and even different audio compressions coming into AE to no effect.
Running XP, AE CS3
Problem only occurs when exporting to Quicktime in Clip Notes. Windows Media sounds beautiful, but I'd rather use QT.

  • Imported clips not in numerical order

    I have imported around 300 short video clips on the timeline from a mini dv camcorder. Each clip is from 2 to 4 seconds long.Near the end of importing, iMovie suddenly quits and when I re-open it, all the clips are in the iMovie trash but in random order. When I select all and drag into the timeline, they are all mixed up and not in the sequential order starting from #1. I had to manually sort them out again. Is there a way to put all the clips back into the timeline from the trash or from the clips pane so that they will be in order as to the clip number starting from the beginning? It seems that it would be easier to re-import them again hoping that it could not crash during the import stage.

    Hi Pat - in response to your question about re-ordering the clips. No, there is unfortunately no automatic way to do that. It has to be done manually. It also may be worth while temporarily stopping the importing process at the half-way point, and saving, before continuing.

  • Imported clips not showing up in Event

    I have version 10.0.5 and imported video clips from my iPhone.  The file size shows 9.5GB yet no clips are showing up.  They were in the Event prior to my quitting iMovie but when I reopened it shows Empty.  Help?

    I think I ought to mention that I also have a new laptop and have experienced file sharing permission issues with some applications. Might this be part of the problem? (Although everything seems to be properly owned!)

  • Can't open sequences or import clips - File format not supported

    We have an iMac workstation here running Premiere that will not open projects or import clips.  Here's the sequence of events that led to this:
    1.  Premiere was locking up on the splash screen whenever it got to "ImporterQuicktime.bundle".  I tried trashing preferences and launching with plug-ins disabled and received the same freeze.  Based on forum recommendations I removed "ImporterQuicktime.bundle" and "ExporterQuickTimeHost.bundle" from the plug-ins folder inside the package.  The software launched fine - but none of the Quicktime files in the project were working.  So I then took copies of the above 2 files from the iMac next to this one, with the exact same configuration, and pasted them into the plug-ins folder.  Since then - launching the software has generated the below errors.
    2.  Attempting to open any project gives a long error that starts as:  The preset used by one or more sequences in this project requires third-party components that could not be located.
    3.  Starting a new project and attempting to drag any Quicktime ProRes media into the project gives the error:  File Format not supported.
    I have trashed the preferences, re-installed the Pro Apps Quicktime Codecs, de-authorized the computer and re-authorized it, and upgraded Adobe Premiere from 7.0 to 7.2.  None of which fixed the issue.
    I'm thinking about trying a complete re-install of Premiere next.  Any other ideas?
    Here's the details:
    Premiere Pro CC 7.2
    Mac OS 10.8.5
    iMac late 2012 model, 32Gb RAM, 2Gb video card
    Thanks.

    I seem to have figured out a work around.  It appears the 7.2 upgrade is making it so that our Quicktime XDCAM 422 clips are not properly recognized.  Clips both currently in a project and new clip imports do not work.  Attempting to import clips using this codec generates the error message:  Unsupported format or damaged file.  This has happened on both an iMac system running 10.8.5 OS and a Macbook Pro running 10.9.1 OS - both of which were upgraded to Premiere 7.2.  In both cases - uninstalling and re-installing Premiere resolved the issue.

  • Aperture Video Import Problem - from Lumix GH4: Imported clips have their dates changed to the import date.  The files show up on the hard drive but many are not showing up in Aperture.

    Aperture Video Import Problem - from Lumix GH4: Imported clips have their dates changed to the import date.  The files show up on the hard drive with import date not created date, but many of these same files are not showing up in Aperture. Sometimes the clips actually show up with the current import but take on the video information from a previously imported file.

    It was suggested I move this question to IPhoto or IMovie which I did. 
    Well moving to a different discussion group did not provide an answer to this question either. But what I finally did was import one batch of photos and videos into IPhoto for a given day at a time. Working with these I could change the date and times in order to get them in the original sequench taken. Then I would create an album with that batch. These would all be on the same day (IMove was closed for this phase). Then I would open IMovie, generate the thumbnails for that album, and select the album I had created. This was necessary because the importing process in IPhoto was using incorrect dates for my video so it was a real struggle finding them in IMove until I developed this approach.
    I believe that this whole process was so screwy because I was importing from an external hard drive not a camera. I had these photos on a PC and did not have the original cameras to use to import directly which I am fairly sure would have made this easier!

    Download/install an app is a know possible solution.

    If all user-installed apps are not launching, it could be an Apple ID authorization issue. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information.

  • Can not import clips from Canon HF100 to iMovie '08 & '09 using iMac

    Hi Everyone,
    Have a strange problem.
    I have a Canon HF100 and iMovie '08 (before) & '09 (now) on both our machines
    (MacPro & iMac).
    When importing clips using the "import from Camera" we get an error message on the iMac but works great on the MacPro. Both system are using 10.5 and we tried it with iMovie '08 and '09.
    When importing from other camera (not AVCHD) but AVI or motion JPEG it work ok.
    Any Ideas?
    Could it be the graphic cards?
    BTW: we did a new reinstall on the iMac.
    Thanks for the feedback and support - Mac user discussions are the best !!!
    Jack

    Hello All,
    I have been attacking this problem for a few hours and I have found that if you turn off and or make all network items inactive the camera will immediately be recognized by iMovie.
    Took a long time to figure this out. Not sure why this is happening but it has fixed my problem.
    Before this fix I would intermently get the camera and its memory sticks in the usb slot to recognize in iMovie.
    Now all is well and works every time as long as I turn off or make things inactive
    Hope this works for you!

  • Whenever I import clips it always says there is an error and my clips are not imported.

    I plug my flip into my computer and then select the clips I want to import to make my movie...it imports a clip and then a message flashes and says "There was an error importing your clips please look over imported clips." But there are no clips too look over..what should I do?

  • Clip Notes in CS4/Acrobat 9: exports transcript, no controls for QuickTime

    When I use the Transcribe feature, then export my project to Clip Notes, it exports every transcribed word as a separate comment. There doesn't seem to be any way of suppressing that, and there doesn't seem to be a way of deleting a transcription either in PP or in Acrobat. The result is that the reviewer sees all these comments and has to fight with Acrobat to insert new comments. When I import the xfdf back into PP, I get the whole transcription loaded into markers along with the reviewer's comments. Unless I open every one, I can't tell what's what.
    Is there at least a way of deleting the transcription in PP or Acrobat?
    Also, if I export the video as QuickTime, there are no player controls in Acrobat. I only get player controls if I export as Windows Media. That means that some Mac users won't be able to use my Clip Notes exports. I've seen others asking about this, but no answers. Any ideas? I'm running this under Windows Vista Ultimate.

    But I find it amazing that there's no way to delete the damn thing. Adobe made a big deal of transcription, but it seems they didn't regard it as more than a gimmick, since they did it half-baked. I think you're right that it's best not to use this "feature".
    I don't know if it's necessarily half-baked, so much as it is an overly optimistic appraisal of the capability of the technology at this point in time. I mean, it does create words, and sometimes very interesting ones at that
    What's interesting to me is that when I tested out the transcribe feature back when Adobe released the beta of Soundbooth CS4, it was MUCH more accurate--and I was testing it on the mixed, final soundtrack of a documentary captured from Betacam SP. The transcription wasn't anywhere near 100%, but it was actually usable. Now, it struggles on pristine audio from a single, clear voice track. Wish it wasn't so...
    Anyway, you can stop the transcription from appearing in a Clip Notes export. Check out the following screenshot for the how-to:

  • Importing clips from iMovie HD to FCE4

    Hi. Have read with interest a couple of questions on this same issue, with the advice from Tom Wolsky seemingly being to not mix the two applications and just get stuck in with FCE. However, i'm finding FCE difficult to like/get to grips with. But more importantly, after attending some Apple onetoone sessions, it seems my Canon camcorder might be a little long in the tooth and there may be some tape slippage as I was getting time code errors when trying to import directly to FCE. The fix seemed to be to capture the footage via iMovie and import to FCE using 'show package contents' route. Having now though imported some footage from a second tape, I have some of the clips showing as Offline for some reason. Is the trick to import clips from IMovie as per Tom's suggested route on 9/8/08?

    I import video from my camera into iMovie 4, because that is the last version of iMovie, I believe, that was capable of flushing unwanted video off the hard drive, and I can bring an entire tape into iMovie, trim it down for FCE, and then get rid of the unwanted footage. iMovie 6, like Final Cut Express, is a nondestructive editor and can't erase unwanted footage from the hard drive, and as you know, video uses up hard drive space FAST. To get rid of discarded edits, you either have to use iMovie 4 or Final Cut Pro.
    iMovie is also much easier to import video into than Final Cut Express, with all the latter's complicated controls. With iMovie, you just plug in your camera, iMovie then says "Camera Connected," and you hit Play and Import. Stone simple. Also, in iMovie you can hear the audio as it comes in, and if I remember right (it's been a while since I did it in FCE), you can't hear your audio tracks as your video imports into FCE. Not a big deal, but an annoyance.
    Once the video is in iMovie, then I cut and trim the video to get rid of all substandard/unwanted stuff, and then Empty Trash, which erases the unwanted video off the hard drive, saving mucho space over the course of a project. Otherwise, you're just stuck with the unwanted video, and all it does is fill up your hard drive. Then you export (or "Share," in iMovie parlance) your video from iMove as a QuickTime movie, and drop that QT movie into Final Cut Express's Browser. Then create your FCE project from it.
    The only objection I have ever seen to this procedure is people complaining that their QuickTime movie from iMovie has to be rendered in FCE before FCE can use it, and this takes a bit of extra time. Well, that's true, unless you export your video from iMovie in a form that FCE can use natively. Then it doesn't need to be rendered at all--it's just as though you had imported it from the camera directly into FCE. Most people don't know how to set up iMovie to do that.
    Here's how I do it: (this is iMovie 4; I assume other versions are the same), Select Share > QuickTime and choose Expert Settings. On the next screen, select Export: Movie to QuickTime Movie, and click the Options button. In the Movie Settings window that this brings up, on the upper (video) part of it, under the Video checkbox, click the Settings button there, and for Compression Type choose DV/DVCPRO-NTSC, and under Compressor Quality, move the slider to Best, and click OK. Under the Sound checkbox, click Settings, and then choose Linear PCM, Stereo, and 48.000 kHz for Sound Settings. Under Render Settings, choose Qualty: Best. Just below that, uncheck the "Prepare for Internet Streaming" box. Then click OK, and the window will go away, and you're ready to export.
    Give the video a name, and a place to save to, then click SAVE. The QuickTime movie that results from this can be dropped straight into FCE and requires no rendering; it works just as though you had imported it directly into FCE from your camera.

  • Importing clips from iMovie - jittery

    Just got Final Cut Pro 5 and I'm having a problem with importing clips from iMovie into FCP5. The clips were fine in iMovie, but the images are jittery in FCP. I tried Apple Care, but they wanted to charge me $200 to answer my question eventhough I just bought the software yesterday!
    any ideas most welcome - thanks

    Nowhere is it advertised that iMovie is compatible with FCP.
    One is a consumer format, with less features, like lack of timecode. The other is a professional format, which relies heavily on timecode.
    Yes, output to tape from imovie, then capture with FCP.
    #20 Using iMovie to Capture for FCP edit
    Shane's Stock Answer #20:
    iMovie handles the media differently from FCP, specifically where audio is concerned. So it is not a recommended workflow. Here's why...
    iMovie captures using DV Stream (.dv) standard which does not use timecode. That is a big disadvantage over the way that FCP captures in that you can't go back and recapture the material at a later date if you need to revisit a project.
    The DV/NTSC specification (the one FCP uses) also calls for seperate tracks for audio and video, even if you capture it as one clip. iMovie' DV stream format is muxed audio and video, which means that they are tied together (I can't get into specifics because I ain't no engineer or programmer). FCP is a bit more demanding and captures the seperate audio/video tracks, either in a single media file or as seperate video and audio files. With FCP you could capture video only or audio only because each is defined by the DV specs. while with iMovie you can't.
    Also, if you drop the iMovie footage into the timeline, your will get the RED render bar forcing you to render the footage in order to see it...

  • Importing clips from iMovie project (they keep ending up in the trash)

    I have never tried to import other clips from another iMovie project before and I just tried it yesterday. This is what I did:
    -I went into the other project and clicked on each individual clip from that project that I wanted (one at a time).
    -I copied that clip and then saved it to the desktop
    -From there I copied those clips to my external drive (which holds the new project that I am working on
    -I then opened up the new project in iMovie
    -I went to File<Import
    -I selected the clips that I had copied over to the external drive
    -I imported them
    -They all showed up fine, they played fine and I was able to edit them and put them into the time line as well
    The problem I face though is after I save the project and exit, the next time I open the project, each of those clips are missing and have been placed in the trash
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks ahead of time for your help!

    It sounds like something may be preventing iMovie from properly saving the project on the external drive. The drive format may be wrong, or third-party software might be causing conflicts. More here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=1852869#1852869
    Another possibility is that you are opening the wrong project file saved inside the iMovie 5 project. If your project was originally an iMovie 4 project converted to iMovie 5 that's an easy mistake to make. More here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=-1&messageID=1971832
    Note that the copy/export/import routine you used can be simplified enormously. iMovie 5 lets us Copy and Paste clips much more simply. To copy clips from Project A to Project B, open Project A, select all the clips you want copied to Project B, choose Edit > Copy, open Project B, move the playhead where you want to place the clips, and Paste. iMovie will import all the files that support those clips from Project A to Project B. Note that it imports the entire file for the clip, not just the clip itself. That's so the clip inherits all the non-destructive editing features it had in Project A.
    To avoid Project B becoming unnecessarily large, it's important to Copy and Paste all the clips you want together. If you copy two clips at the same time that share the same file iMovie imports their source file just one time. But if you Copy and Paste two clips that share the same source file separately, iMovie imports the same file twice.

  • Suddenly my event library in iMovie 11 is empty.  I have tried deleting the plist, importing clips from multiple locations (to see if they show up in the library), re-installing iMovie, and re-installing Mountain Lion. Help??

    Suddenly my event library in iMovie 11 is empty.  I have tried deleting the plist, importing clips from multiple locations (to see if they show up in the library), re-installing iMovie, and re-installing Mountain Lion.
    I was working on a project, when all of a sudden the event library went blank.  There are no devices showing in the left column, only "last import" and "aperture videos".  There are no video clips in the editing window.  I have "Show: All Clips" selected.  I've tried "group events by disk". 
    When I have a Project open, it plays just fine.  There are no yellow triangles saying "source clip is missing".  Yet, again...nothing is in the event library large editing window.  So, it seems the data is still there, but invisible.  This is true with all the projects, and all the external devices I've experimented by plugging in to see if their video clips show up in the event library. 
    I have tried to import new movies, and iMovie responds as normal...looking like it's importing, then "generating thumbnails", then it makes the "ding" signalling that the import is complete...but nothing shows in the event library.  I've tried importing movies from the harddrive, from quicktime, and from an external drive.
    I have searched the forums, and found many users with a similar, but not the same, problem.  For them, it seems the "go to users-library-preferences and delete iMovie plist" has solved their problem.  This didn't work for me. 
    I uninstalled/reinstalled iMovie, I even have re-installed Mountain Lion (from a last-ditch effort suggestion from Apple technician). 
    HERE'S AN INTERESTING DETAIL:  After almost 5 hours on the phone with Apple, I decided to cut my losses and take my project to another Mac I have.  I'm working on a project, for work, that is critical that it's completed by tonight (whoops), and all my video is on an external drive.  So, I plug in the external drive to Mac #2, open iMovie, and everything is looking fine.  I continue importing some files I was converting, through Wondershare, and suddenly (whether or not this has to do with the importing, I'm not sure), the SAME THING happened to Mac #2!!!!  I can't believe this. 
    Does anyone have any suggestions?  Have you ever heard of this happening?  Could it have to do with the files I'm importing??? 
    I apologize if my language is confusing.  Obviously, I'm not an Apple genius-person!  I hope I've provided all the information you need.
    Mac #1 is a 27" desktop, mid-2012, software up-to-date.  Mac #2 is a 24" desktop, about 4 years old, OSX 10.7.5

    I'm adding more information:
    in Finder, my iMovie folders are all visible and accessible.  When I click on a clip from iMovie Events folder, Quicktime opens and plays the clip.  ALL my video is not missing - it just isn't showing up in the Event Library!
    This happened all of a sudden, while I was working on iMovie project (on both computers).
    All my Projects are intact, and play when I open them.

  • Reader 9 Kills Clip Notes

    For anyone using the Clip Notes feature of Pr or AE: don't upgrade to Acrobat Reader 9.
    Your client won't be able to add comments, nor will they be able to export the .xdf data file that gets imported back to your Pr sequence. When you open the Clip Notes .pdf file in Reader 9, the program alerts you that the .pdf document has enabled features that are not available in that version of Reader. No other information is available.

    Welcome to the forum.
    Unfortunately, there is no Adobe presence here. We are all just users. Adobe might "read" a few posts out in the main fora, though we seldom know. The chances of them reading something in the Lounge is as close to absolute zero as one can get - sorry.
    I would have assumed that this HAD been fixed by now, but from your comments, maybe not. Do you have the latest releases of all programs, Acrobat Reader 9, PrPro CS4.1 and whatever AE CS4 is up to? BTW, your client will likely need the latest for all pertinent programs too. Good luck.
    For getting the attention of Adobe, it's best to use the Bug Report/Feature Request.
