Is importing from a dv tape the only way to edit a video clip?

There has to be a better way of editing my clips. I am importing my video from a dv tape then pausing the clip when I want it to stop. If I dont pause my clip at the exact moment, I have to clear that clip and try it again. I'snt there a way where I can load long clips in the clip pane then edit them down there, then drag the edited clip to my timeline? I am spendind alot of time with this old editing method.

    You can create an install disc but you would have to download Mountain Lion to do so..

  • Verizon is using the Elipsis tablets to steal data from their customers.  The only way to stop data from registering as cellular data is to pull the SIM card.  This occurs with wifi enabled and cellular,dara disabled.  If,you take your tablet to a Verizon

    Verizon is using the Elipsis tablets to steal data from their customers.  The only way to stop data from registering as cellular data is to pull the SIM card.  This occurs with wifi enabled and cellular,dara disabled.  If,you take your tablet to a Verizonstore they will upgrade your data plan to cover the overage and credit the upgrade.  You will then have to remember to downgrade your plan or continue to pay for more data.  Verizon, how would you feel if I walked into one of your stores and started filling my pockets with merchandise?  If cought can I just give the product back and say "oops, sorry"

    Today, my FCC complaint hit the same person working on the BBB complaint.  Jimmie has been very nice and seems willing to work with this problem.  We have been able to come to an agreement.  I paid the purchase price for the phone and he returned my upgrade and unlimited data plan.  This is what would have occurred if Verizon had given me correct information to begin with.  I am happy with this result.  He also brought quite a few instances concerning the handling of my transfer and upgrade that did not follow proper procedure.  I am also confident that I would not have resolved this without complaining to BBB and or FCC.  Verizon had no interest in solving the problem nor did they show any propensity to keeping a 20 year client.  Even though this last CSR was very polite and helpful, his sole job is to respond to formal Federal and State complaints.  He is required by law to address every complaint and report the reporting agency the agreed upon results - good or bad.  Again, I suggest - If you are not getting the proper customer service, complain to someone outside of Verizon.  Jimmie had not received any complaints registered with Verizon directly and I still have not had any contact with any other management representative that I was told would call.

  • What is the easiest way to use a video clip as the DVD's menu and have titles?

    Ok, I"m using Ppro CS4, and I have a clip that i would like to be the title screen when the DVD starts.  I then want to click on something like Play movie that will play the movie.
    I want the Menu to be the actual video clip playing in the background.  I am going to be importing several projects from CS3 into the fished version and would like these to be set up as seperate from the main movie......but something that can be clicked on and watched.   (I guess I'm wanting titles)
    any help would be appreciated.  I have searched around and kind figure out how to do this.  Do I need to use AFter Effects, or Encore, or what.
    thanks a ton
    Mo

    I would suggest that you post this to the Adobe Encore>Menus & Buttons forum. What you want to do, if I read correctly, is pretty simple. There will probalby be links available to step you though it. I'll look for this there, and start gathering some links.
    Good luck,

  • I'm using 3.6 &have a question 1st. I edit a web site English. WhenI updated awhile ago to another upgrade, the only way to edit was "iusing code". My question is, if I upgrade to yur latest verious, will it still allow me to edit in English, not code.

    I edit a web site using regular English language.
    A few months ago I updated to a newer version of Firefox and with that upgrade came the requirement to edit "in code". Therefore, I deleted the newer version and went back to 3.??.
    I am interested in updating to your latest version, but I do not want to unless you can veriy that I can continue editing this web site in regular English

  • What's the easiest way to loop a video clip ?

    I just need a short .mov file to loop in the background behind a green screen shot.
    I don't need any green screen help, I just need to loop this short background file and can't figure out how to do it other than copying and pasting 20x which seems stupid. There must be a simple way ?
    Thanks for any help.

    Nothing at all happened to me.  You could do this: f9 until you're happy on a blank timeline. File export>qt movie>self contained.  Import that file, put it into your green screen timeline as the bottom layer.  you're still going to have to render it.
    In video production, as in other creative work there's a maxim:  Fast, good, cheap-- pick any two.

  • I am having a problem with email, when I delete messages from my Ipad, they come back into trash whether they are on my PC or not. The only way I can delete them is to to my providers site and delete everything there.

    I am having a problem with email. I can receive and send, but when I delete, the deleted messages return into either Trash or Bin or both whether or not I have deleted them from my PC.
    The only way I can get rid of them permanently, is to go into my area of my providers site(Sky) and empty all of the boxes there. I imagine it's a setting, please advise.

    For IMAP mail only.

  • When I import photos taken from my Ipod Touch 4 to My Mac Desktop, I click delete photos on ipod, but they do not delete. Is the only way to delete them individually (I have 1,400 photos!) or is there a way to delete them all in one go?

    I realise you can you can delete them on your ipod slowly as you have to click on each one, and you can restore your ipod, but surely there is a way to get around this?

    Download/install an app is a know possible solution.
    3. Install another app from the App Store
    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.
    Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.

  • Is Import to DRM by action script the only way to build hierarchies?

    Hi,
    If I am getting by source file as a big generation wise excel format and even properties in excel sheet with large number of custom property field values.
    Is making a Import action script out of the excel to load to DRM is the only way, or do we hav any other option to load these hierechies to DRM from excel without going fpr manual efforts in making scripts one by one for large no of dimensions.

    hi, the import functionality can build hierarchies. It has a draw back of only building NEW hierarchies. So if your source master hierarchy is external to DRM, action script or API is best way, if it is to be automated. If this is only be imported/updated once a month the import can be used to create the "new" version. You can use then blend update your old version.

    From time to time the display on any open application zooms in and enlarges to an enormous degree. The only way to get out of this is to reset. What can I do to avoid this?

    Go into: Settings>General>Accessibility and make sure zoom is turned off. You can double tap with THREE fingers to turn zoom off as well, rather than performing a reset.
