In and out editing on 2nd video track

I can select an in and out point on video track 1 and then extract that selection but is there a way to do this on the 2nd video track without the other video track being effected?

Well it works here.
eg 2 video tracks on top of each other.
Lock either track so that the cross hatching shows on the locked clip.
Extract or Lift from I's and Os works as expected.

AE 12.1 Crash: "There was more than one edit in the video track"

Here's the last log message: Last log message was: <140735209366288> <ImporterQuicktime::NativeReaderGetInfo> <5> There were more than one edit in the video track, defer to non-native quicktime for 0x1308a73a8.

My project has a bunch of ProRes files referenced... even when I move them, and After Effects marks them as offline, I just get this: Last log message was: <140735209366288> <ae.blitpipe> <2> Making New Context.
I have done some searching, and even if I go to Google, and put the search in quotes, I get nothing. It doesn't sound like anyone else has had just this problem.
Help?

Sounds like the ProRes files are encoded oddly in a format that AE's own handler can't understand and while falling back to QT it crashes. I believe there are some known issues with this for ProRes 444, but then again I'm not a Mac guy...

How do I zoom in and out on my iPad videos

How do I zoom in and out using my ipad video?

Double click the clip in the Timeline, to place it in the viewer.
In the Viewer window click the Motion tab. Adjust the "Scale" control and set keyframes as needed.

I am not able to zoom in and out even after activating in track pad

Lock the audio and precision edit only the video clips?

How would I:
Starting with a series of roughly edited video clips, add a final audio track, lock that track, and then precision edit the video to that audio?
Thanks.

Welcome to the forum, onehhitfights.
Let's start by clarifying exactly what you mean when you say that your A/V clips are importing only as audio. What does the clip's icon look like in the Project panel (list view)? Is it just an audio waveform, or does is it a combo of film frame and waveform?
Is the audio missing regardless of whether you play it in the Source Monitor or drop it in on the Timeline and play it in the Program Monitor?
If the clip's icon includes the film frame and you can see video in the Source Monitor, then most likely you don't have a video track selected for source patching.

Sound very choppy and out of sync on videos. Fine when playing music

Whenever I try to play a video on iTunes I must use quicktime instead because the Audio makes it so unbearable. It becomes choppy and delayed by a few seconds. It almost pulses.
My audio is fine when I try to play music and fine on quicktime.
Anyone got any idea???
Thanks

Did you ever get an answer on this? I have the exact same problem. Windows Vista, iTunes 10.5.3.3
Songs play great, videos are choppy and warble but they play fine on QuickTime.

Problem - Title Cards in Vid Track 2 Skewing In and Out Points in Track 1 ?

Hi,
Vast confusion. I'm working with edits in a timeline, created from video files that are "Avid Meridien Compressed" Quicktime Files. These are files that I exported from Avid. They are 24P files. The timeline has been set to 23.97, and everything in Video Track 1 makes sense, no problems, no render line because the project compression settings have been set to "Avid Meridien Compressed".
Ok, so here's the problem. I am creating title cards with the video generator in FCP, and trying to super them into my edits by placing them into Video Track 2. But the moment I drop a title card into Video Track 2, (over an edit I have made in Video Track 1), there is a SHIFT in the in and out points of the source video in the timeline. For example, let's say an edit in my timeline has a source in of 02:02:30:17 and an out of 02:02:35:17. The moment I try and drop a title card over this edit in Video Track 2, the source video in Track 1 shifts, so it now begins at 02:02:31:29 and ends at 02:02:36:29.
It is as if the title cards refuse to conform to the 23.97 timeline, and are overriding the source video edit decisions in Video Track 1.
Does anyone have any thoughts on why this is occcuring? Does anyone have any suggestions for a remedy? BTW, I have also tried creating title cards in photoshop and dropping them in, but with the same result: it changes the source time code edits by shifting them later into the source video.
Thanks,
Mtbakerstu

Update!
While I was never able to get the Vid Track 2 title cards to stop shifting the edit decisions in Vid Track 1 when using the preset that is in tandem with the actual source video files (Avid Meridien Quicktimes at 23.98), I did find that by changing the Sequence Setting to DV/DVCPRO50 NTSC at 23.98 that I could drop the titles into Vid Track 2 successfully without any skewing of edit decisons. You now have to render the timeline, but a quick test of an MPEG2 export showed that there's no denigration in image quality with using this setting.
So that's the scoop. It seems that there's no pure solution to this issue. Perhaps if there's a way to generate title cards out of Avid that are importable into FCP, that would do the trick, but I haven't taken my research that far.
Thanks for your help!

I want to laydown a voiceover and then edit images to the VO track

I like to write a script, record the voiceover track and then edit the pictures/video to the voiceover track. In iMovie 08 it seems you have to edit images first and then lay down voiceover track. Any suggestions on how I can record VO first?
Thanks!

You create a one second black matte and then PIN your audio track to it.
Then pull-out the green audio bar to it's full length.
Now you can place stills and video clips above the audio.
BUT, you'll have a hard time aligning the video to points in audio. Make that a very hard time.
I suppose you could play the audio and pause at each point and write down the timecode.
Now create image segments to match the duration of the segments.
Better to go with FCE for this type of work.

Solo a Video Track CS4 Ppro.

Gentlemen,
Does Premiere Pro CS4 has a way to SOLO a video track ?
What I mean by that is , let's say I have 20 video tracks and I wanna see only video track number 10 , I don't wanna go through uncheck other tracks to be able to see what I have on channel 10.
Sony vegas has a little button called "Solo Track" you press that and only that channel is playing, rest is OFF
Thank You !

1/8th of a second is not nearly an accurate assessment of lost time.
Here is a real life video editing situation:
You have 20 video tracks. During the creation phase, 12 or so video tracks are 'eyeballed'-visible. 8 tracks are being hidden for the moment.
Now, you want to preview one track using the shift-eyeball method.
Sure, you can view the single track by clicking the eyeball a second time.
And, let's say you just made a SMALL ADJUSTMENT.
BUT! Now that you've finished previewing the temporary track, you want to un-solo the eyeball... and, return to the original 12 track ON and 8 track OFF setup.
Premiere can't do this?
So, you either
a) have to memorize every OFF track so that you can return to your original state before the shift-eyeball solo method; or,
b) don't make ANY adjustments after the solo because an UNDO to the original 12 ON, 8 OFF state will wipe out your small adjustments.
If there is a Real solution to solo-ing a track in CS4, please let me know. Because as an editor who uses many other software packages, I am very frustrated that I can't find an easy way to do something that is absolutely standard everywhere else.

Can I synchronize and playback two different quicktime videos?

I have some quicktime video from my iphone that I would like to view side-by-side on my computer using Quicktime. Is there a way to have two separate quicktime movies play back synchronized so that if I stop one video, it stops the other? I also want to be able to go frame-by-frame and have both movies stay in lock step.
Basically I am trying to analyze my golf swing. I have a good swing and a bad swing on video with the same club and I have pretty consistent tempo. I want to be able to play back both swings and see if I can figure out what I am doing in one, but not the other.
I tried to search for this but without success. Thanks for any advice on how to do this. I am using QTPro 7.7.1 on Windows 7 Professional

Well, both frame rates should be the same since the video was taken on my iPhone 4s
"Should be?" I tend to use camcorders rather than mobile phones for video recording. In the past I have found the frame rates less than consistent. However, I do not have an iPhone 4S and so I have no personal experience in this area. In the past the iPhone usually described the recording frame rate as "up to 30 fps." The iPhone 4S says "at 30 fps" so maybe they have improved frame rate consistency—but I'll still stick to a camcorder.
When I trimmed the files I also did a "save as" and not just a save so I don't know what else I should have done prior to merging the files.
Basically, I have found that a frame rate of 29.97 (NTSC) trimmed randomly from two separate files can vary in frame alignment due to the variations in the location of the dropped frame used to average the frame rate to a non-integer value. In addition, the presence of a timecode track in one of the files to be merged can also create synchronization problems depending on your specific work flow. (I.e., in such cases I normally create an new player, copy the file without a timecode track, and then extract the secondary video track for merging to the "new" player or re-compress trimmed files so they have common start start frame and drop frame points.) There may may be other potential problems but these are the most common ones for me.
Here is an example of one of my "comparison" files. In this case, I am comparing an H.264 track video track against a ProRes 4-2-2 video track containing the same material.

How to apply same editing to further audio tracks...

Hello all,
i've just made a very complicated sync between a video and audio track within an FCS project.
The video was untouched and i edited the stereo audio track.
Now i would like to apply the same editing to the .ac3 version of the just edited stereo version.
There is a way to do that without remake manually the full work on the ac3 version?
Many many Big Thanks in advance

You might (and I emphasize might) be able to do this by making a duplicate of your sequence, selecting the audio clips in the timeline and making them independent and the reconnecting them to your new audio clips. Probably need to duplicate the audio tracks for each new audio element of the 5:1. Things could get screwed up, so make sure you have your project backed up. Might be simplest just to match your edits.

How can I copy a clip to another video track?

I've been fiddling around to find a solution to this, but to no avail...
I have a video track containing a couple of clips. Now I want to copy a clip and paste it onto another video track in the same sequence. This seems to be an impossible task...
How can I do that?
Thanks for enlightening me!

Right click on the clip in the timeline you want to copy. Select "copy". Then select in the timeline the video track you want to copy TO. Place your CTI (current time indicator) in the timeline where you want your clip to get pasted. Then Go to your PrPro menu in the header, select EDIT>PASTE. Voila!
What may confuse you and make it seem impossible is that you can right click on a clip in the timeline and "copy". But when you go to right click and "paste" no context menu opens up. You can of course use the EDIT>COPY and EDIT>PASTE command as well.
And what works even more easily is you can just use your Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V commands. You can also copy and paste into the same video track and then just click and drag the new copy to whatever video track you want.
All of the above will copy and paste your audio tracks as well. If you want to just copy the video then use the Alt key when selecting and it will only select the video or audio depending on what you try to select.
The basics are all well covered in Adobe Help and use this for starters:

URGENT! Button on a video track

Hi, I have a client who is interested in my idea of having a button on the video track with which, when it appears, you press enter and it plays a different video track. It acts just like a menu button but appears at a certain point whilst playing a video.
I did this during my degree with great ease in DVD Studio Pro using the subtitle tracks but the company I now work for used Encore CS2 and I can't find anything anywhere which will allow me to do what, really is quite a simple request for an 'industry standard' DVD authoring programme.
Please help as this is urgent! Are we going to have to purchase DVD studio pro as well!?
Thank you,
Tracey

You could just set up a menu, with a video background (your video) and then have the loop point setup so that when your button should appear, it does (since this is technically a menu now, should be no problem).
When you get to the point you want the button to go off screen again (if that is the case), just create a new menu or timeline as the out point of the menu (make sure menu is not set for looping) and link to that one.
Crazy crazy workaround, I know...but maybe it'll work for you and you won't need to go buy another program. This is, unfortunately, a weak section for Encore.

How do I zoom in and out on a clip using final cut pro 6?

I have searched around and I haven't found anything about how to zoom in and out on non-still video. I am sure there is some simple explanation as of how to do this but I can't seem to find it. If you guys could help me out that would be great. Thanks.

Double click the clip in the Timeline, to place it in the viewer.
In the Viewer window click the Motion tab. Adjust the "Scale" control and set keyframes as needed.

Fading a mask in - and out?

While there is possible to fade in and out in Compositing in Video Animations, there is no such functionallity in Color Correction.
Is there a way I can fade in - and out - a color correction mask in the same clip? Workaround?
Thanks!

1) Cut the clip where you want the mask to fade in.
2) Apply the mask to second half of the clip, past the cut point.
3) Place a cross dissolve transition at the cut point.
