Is there a way to "liberate" an edited clip from a multiclip?

As in, to get just that clip, no longer contained in the multiclip.
I ask because it is really convenient and organized to pick takes using a multiclip, but then that convenience starts to break down once you need to say, go into after effects. all the clips import, even if you really only need the one. It can get messy fast. If there is a way to free the clip form the multiclip, that would be great.
Feature request? Or does this already exist?

Of course I do, but re-opening that clip and re-editing it to the specified I/O points is not the kind of solution I'm talking about. way too round about.

Is there a way to import video/audio clips from Logitech webcam?

I just purchased a used Logitech Quickcam Vision Pro for Mac. A Logitech driver is apparently not required. I connected it to a USB port on my mini. I couldn't find any way of downloading Photo Booth so I downloaded Funny Photographer (http://homepage.mac.com/spillnerclan/fabian/funnyphotographer/Funny%20Photograph er.html).
With Funny Photographer I am able to capture still photos.
Eventually, I intend using the webcam with Skype. In the meantime I would like to capture audio and video clips. This is not possible in iMovie6 (at least with a USB device). Is there a way to do this? Might Quicktime PRO work? Thanks.

Is there a way to copy & paste a clip from the timeline in one project in to another project?

Hello Popular Premiere Pontificaters,
I am using Premiere 6 on a Windows 7 machine.
Is there a way to copy and paste a clip from the timeline in one project in to another project?... I can copy my clip, but when I open the other project, it will not allow me to paste it in there... but I am able to copy and paste a clip within a single project. I tried everything... pasting in to a new video track and pasting in to an existing video track in the second project, but the paste option simply isn't there when I open the second project.
And if Premiere itself will not allow me to do this in any way, will a copy-paste clipboard type of accessory app allow me to do this?... if so, which is the best, trustworthy copy-paste app that is malware free?
Thanks,
digi

Hi Bill Hunt,
I just read the page that you provided about "Handles"... thanks allot for that ARTICLE. In your article and the subsequent article HANDLES, "Transitions Overview: applying transitions" linked from your article, it indicates (in PrE and PrPro anyway - I'm in Premiere 6) that transitions can be applied to non-Video 1 tracks... the paragraph below is a quote from that "Transitions Overview: applying transitions" article...
"Whatever is below the transition in a Timeline panel appears in the transparent portion of the transition (the portion of the effect that would display frames from the adjacent clip in a two-sided transition). If the clip is on Video 1 or has no clips beneath it, the transparent portions display black. If the clip is on a track above another clip, the lower clip is shown through the transition, making it look like a double-sided transition."
So this indicates that transitions can be applied to non-Video 1 tracks since it is referring to content in tracks beneath a transparent fade that would show through... and only non-Video 1 tracks can be transparent and have other clips "beneath" them in the timeline, right?
In the screenshot sample in your article at this LINK, I see the handles (referred to as B and E) and I can see in my monitor window how those handles would be represented by the two little bracket symbols { } ... you can see how they appear in my monitor window in Premiere 6 in this screenshot, and below, from a different thread that isn't related to this topic.
But I'm still trying to figure out how the handles can be applied in the non-Video 1 tracks in the timeline to insert a transition (cross-dissolve) between two clips.
Can you advise me on this?... I posted a separate thread HERE on this topic, but I haven't got any further with finding an answer.
Thanks so much for your article,
digi

Is there a way to make a long clip into a short clip without compressing it any further?

Is there a way to make a long clip into a short clip without compressing it any further?
I went through all my old formats (VHS, hi8, miniDV, etc) and captured them. They end up as .mov files. Some of the longer 2hr ones are about 28GB.
If I am making a new project and I want to edit in short clips from several of these longer files, is there a way to save a short clip from an existing file without compressing it any further?
In other words, lets say I have 10 2hr files, but I know I only want 1 minute from each. Is there a way to select the good 1 minute from each .mov file that I want to use and a version of this 1 minute from each in the folder I am working on the project in, without compressing them??? I like to keep all of the content I am working with on a project in its own folder in case the project needs to be moved from one hard drive to the next while I am working on it. I would hate to have to make a folder that is 280GB or more when I only need a minute from each larger file.
I hope I have asked this in a way that is understandable. Maybe there is a term for what I want to do, that I don't know yet that has its own help section too. Thanks for any assistance

Thanks Jon - That's kind of where I started, but the part of that I need help with on is the second to last step.
"Export using a codec that matches the source material. "
The codec they were captured in is .mov at DV quality, but then after picking .mov, there are so many other options to choose from as far as compression goes from sound quality and settings, to how many passes, etc. I just want the new clip to be of the same quality as the original clip. It looks so complicated and its not clear to me what options to pick to match the original.
Is there a setting or preference that helps you to match the compression settings of the original clip? Or is there a way to detect the settings of the original clip so I can repeat that in the shortened clip??

Any way to temporarily remove the clip from the ipod shuffle? I would like to see if it can be placed in speakers designed for the Nano.

is there any way to temporarily remove the clip from the ipod shuffle? I would like to try to connect it to speakers which are designed for ipod nano, but appear to be compatible with the shuffle, if it didn't have the clip.

Unfortunately, Apple can do no such thing. The most you can do is turn it over to the local authorities or the customer service desk if you found in a store or similar.
Kudos to trying to find the owner though!

Is there a way to snap cut/edited portions together on the same track rather than manually having to drag them together?

Is there a way to snap cut/edited portions together on the same track rather than manually having to drag them together? To elaborate, if I have a 3 minute track of raw audio and I edit out the middle 30 seconds of it I am left with two tracks with a "30 second" area that has no file. To join them manually I can click and drag one portion of the audio until I match it with the other section but instead, is there a shortcut or function that I could select that automatically marries up the cut portions of the track, thereby eliminating the 30 second gap?

Yes: hold the control key while deleting (or select "delete and move" from the Edit menu.)

My iTunes got deleted off a (no longer working) computer. Is there a way I can transfer all content from my iPhone onto iTunes on a new computer? I want to update my phone, but do not want to lose any music off it when syncing it.

My iTunes got deleted off a (no longer working) computer. I have lost all music & data that was on this original itunes. Is there a way I can transfer all content from my iPhone (music & photos) onto iTunes on a new computer? I want to update my iphone (3GS), but do not want to lose any music off it when syncing it. Help please!!

By design, the iphone will sync itunes content with one computer at a time. Any attempt to sync such content with a second computer will result in ALL itunes content being first erased from your phone & then replaced with the content from the second computer. This is a design feature and cannot be overridden. Because you are using a new computer, your phone will see this computer as a "new" computer. The itunes content sync is one way: computer to phone. If you have photos that were synced to your phone or music ripped on your own that were not backed up, you will first have to extract them from your phone using third party software, before you do anything else, as Apple makes no provision to do so:
http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy/index.php
Once you've done that, do the following in the order specified:
1. Disable auto sync when an iPod/iPhone is connected under iTunes>Preferences(under the edit menu if using Windows)>Devices in itunes.
2. Make sure you have one contact & one event in the supported applications(Address Book & iCal or Outlook, Windows Address Book) on your computer. These entries can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is that these programs not be empty.
3. Connect your phone, iTunes running, DO NOT SYNC at this point.
4. Store>Authorize this computer.
5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on your phone will be in your itunes library).
6. Right click in the device pane & select reset warnings.
7. Right click again and select backup.
8. Right click again & select restore from backup, select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore your itunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding your contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
You should be good to go.

Is there a way to export an iTunes playlist from a windows XP pc and import on an iMac?

I have a PC running Windows XP that I've had for many years. I just got an iMac and want to make that my main music source for syncing iPods, playing,music in the house, etc. I have a lot of playlists on the old PC that I want to move over to the iMac and I don't have to rebuild them all by hand. Is there a way to export the original playlists from the Windows PC and import them to the iMac since the file systems are different? Thanks.

The problem really is that one person has InDesign and the other has Photoshop.
The workflow is images from photoshop are placed in Photoshop.
Not the layout from InDesign is placed in photoshop.
That's how the software is designed to work.
What people are saying is that Photoshop cannot work this way in dealing with layouts, it's a nightmare and will give you terrible results and cost you time and effort when updating things in Photoshop, it has all the makings of a Final Destination movie, particularly in the area of the later sequels.
But let's not get hung up on those franchises.
If the person needs to edit an Indesign file and can't afford the full cost of InDesign then there are other workarounds:
1. If it's just text
If all they are doing is updating text then you can use File>Export>Rich Text Format from a selection of text, this will make a Word version of the text that they can edit. You can then use File>Import and import the RTF that is edited.
2. You can use InCopy
This is a viable solution for editors that need to see the text in the Layout Format, but it hasn't got all the bells and whistles of InDesign, but it works in tangent with InDesign, it's not as pricey as InDesign and it also allows you to lock out editors from editing certain parts or moving things within the layout. And it can update your InDesign file on the fly.
3. You can use Rorohikos Story Tweaker
http://www.rorohiko.com/wordpress/2009/03/25/storytweakertextedits/
There are workarounds that you can find for people that don't have InDesign. It's just that the Photoshop workflow isn't a viable solution in any sense.
For example, I have my layouts proofed in PDF format, where the proofreader adds Comments to the PDF. It works for our workflow as I'm the one editing the only file in existence.
But to go from InDesign to Photoshop is a complete waste of time and effort on everyone's part. There is no need to go that route, there's no reason, there's no point.

Is there any way to prevent my SSIS Tasks from reformatting themselves when I want to change the Name

So all my tasks are nicely laid out in my SSIS Package. Now I want to go add a blurb to the Name to make it a little more descriptive. When I do that, Microsoft Visual Studio just automatically re-sizes the task so the entire description, name fits. When
I make it the right size, my scripting name is wrapping and that's the way I want it to look within my Package. Is there any way to stop Microsoft Visual Studio from automagically adjusting the size of my task when I click on the Name to edit?
Thanks for your review and am hopeful for a reply.

There is no way. The designer canvas received improvements in SSIS ver 2012, but this specific aspect remain unchanged.
What I do I simply use the Format -> Autolayout -> Diagram or you can also/instead Ctrl-A to select all and choose "make same size"

Is there a way to apply LUTS to clips while in Adobe Media Encoder

is there a way to apply LUTS to clips while in Adobe Media Encoder? We have many camera clips needing luts applied then wrapped to ProRes422 for editing. right now we are using after effects, rendering out then wrapping in Encoder, but this workflow is quite time consuming.We've tried rendering proRes out of AE but the boss isn't happy with the results without also going through Encoder.

No, there is not a way to apply color changes (e.g., using LUTs) in Adobe Media Encoder. Do this in After Effects, but just add your After Effects compositions directly to the Adobe Media Encoder encoding queue (e.g., by choosing File > Add After Effects Composition in the AME UI).

Is there a way to crop a video clip after I rotate it?

I rotated a clip due to faulty attachment of my helmet cam. Is there a way to crop the video clip after rotating it 4 degrees? I would hate to lose this footage, but I cannot use it as it is.

If your export looks like the screenshot in post 6, then please write your Publish+Share settings in a reply to confirm your present situation.
Publish+Share
Computer
and then what?
MPEG
AVCHD
XAVC-S
AVi
Windows Media
QuickTime
Image
Audio
You might only be seeing MPEG, AVCHD, and XAVC-S in the list because the other are hidden from view. You need to use the small scroll bar to the right of the choices to scroll down to the ones beyond XAVC-S.
If you select MPEG and do nothing but accept the first choice of Presets which is NTSC DVD Standard, then you are going to get a 4:3 export. Under those circumstances, you have a 16:9 project setting, then you are going to get the type of result that you are seeing in post 6.
If you are doing that, then look at the MPEG Presets = NTSC DVD Widescreen, do your export, and let us know if all is OK.
Do you have any special receipt requirements for the export? With further information from you, I will help you with the export setting appropriate for your project and maintaining what you are created in the edit area.
Thanks.

Hello, is there a way to export or save layers from Indesign to separate png or pdf -files?

Hello, is there a way to export or save layers from Indesign to separate png or pdf -files? I have a Indesign document with serveral layers and I need them as separate png files.
I know that is is possible with Illustrator but can't find it for Indesign.
Thanks a lot.

The script Peter's noting is in #122 here:
how to export indesign layers to photoshop layers (same structure)
It is OSX only and exports PDFs for creating Photoshop layers. The exported PDFs get trashed so if you can use AppleScript I can edit out the Photoshop part post a version that only saves the PDFs
