Is there a way to quickly locate a clip on the timeline back to the bin?

Hi there,
Unfortunately I try to equate FCP with adobe premiere pro (I need to let it go), but one thing I always did find useful was right clicking on a clip in the timeline and saying "locate". It took me straight to the raw footage in the capture bin.
Is there anyway of doing something like this in FCP. I've located it using "finder" but it takes me to the folder where it's stored rather than the bin.
Hope you can help (as always)

The functionality you're looking for is Reveal Master Clip. The shortcut for that is Shift-F.
However, this depends on your not breaking the link between the master clip (what's in the Browser, as mentioned) and the affiliate clip (what you're clicking on in your sequence). One common way (in FCP 5.x or earlier) of breaking that link was to copy a sequence over from another project, as the clips from that copied-over sequence all become Master Clips (meaning Shift-F won't work). Also, if you import sequences via XML (because you're swapping stuff with another station), there will be no Master Clips to link back to (that info is not contained in the XML).
With those caveats in mind, you should be good to go with a simple Shift-F.

    You need to use a video editor like iMovie or QuicktimePro. OR an app like this:

  • 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,

  • Is there a way to copy referenced video clips into the iMovie library?

    When I import video clips into an iMovie event it seems that iMovie uses only a reference to the file. When files are moved things get horrible broken soon. I noticed that iMovie does actually copy video clips into your library when you convert your library from iMovie'11 to iMovie'13. Is there a way to copy video clips into the iMovie library when importing them so that they don't get lost?

  • Is ther a way to quickly delete whole albums in the music app in iOS 7?

    I often download new music and need to remove old music to make space.  I use Match, so I almost never sync with a computer these days, and even when I do I don't manage my music that way.  The music app in iOS 7 seems to have no way to delete albums, just individual songs.  This is very tedious when I want to remove one album and replace it with another album.  Happily, I can still download a whole album with one tap.  Has anyone found the secret to deleting albums?

    it looks like they took out the "Show" option under Mail settings completely and added a Flag choice instead. Don't know why.

  • I lost my ipod touch i can't find it all i know is its in the house is there a way i can locate it with out the ipod being connected to the computer

    Depending on how you configured the iPod, it could be quite easy.  You can use a computer to make the iPod play a sound.  Read the bottom of page 33 in the user manual.

  • Is there any way to assign keywords to clips in the new iMovie?

    You can search for keywords that were assigned to clips in the old iMovie 11, but I can't find how to assign keywords to clips in this new version.  Other than this, I'm finding all the old features and am loving the new layout and speed of imports with this new version!

    This is a huge mistake in their release of iMovie.  I was using keywords to categorize all of my son's soccer team videos by player.  This REALLY distroy's all of my past content categorization.  I hope Apple makes an update soon to FIX this as it should be considered a defect in my opinion (whether it was intentional or not).
    What is funny is that I can do a search on the old video content by my old keywords and it still finds the video clips. It just won't let me add new keywords to new video going forward.

  • Is there a way to level a video clip.

    I'm using Adobe Premiere Elements 12.  Is there a way to level a video clip?  The video camera was slightly tilted so the horizon line is not straight. I'm not seeing an editing tool for this.
    Thanks.

    If you select the clip on the timeline, click Applied Effects and open the Motion effects, you can adjust the rotation.

    I would do it manually.  As you can see from turingtest2's post, some duplicates are not really duplicates.
    I would also review how you add media to iTunes.  It should not be producing all that many duplicates.

  • Is there a way to Quickly organize, consolidate & save the Original (Pictures, Movies, etc.) yet delete all duplicate (Pictures, Movies, etc.)?

    Is there a way to Quickly organize, consolidate & save the Original (Pictures, Movies, etc.) yet delete all duplicate (Pictures, Movies, etc.)?

    I wanted to first thank you for this, as this is the only workaround literature that seems to be floating around out there.  With that said, I know it is a big ask, but is there any way that you could create a video showing step by step how to do what you do?  I have several tracks that are stuck in waiting mode, and if left in itunes, will never upload or match...they only cause the upload process to hang up and restart.  I've tried leaving it for days...I've tried converting the files, signing in and out of itunes (and itunes match), updating itunes match, and I tried your technique...unfortunately to no avail.  Perhaps I didn't do your technique correctly.  I used audacity to reverse the audio.
    ANY help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!
    Thanks

  • HT4623 I have lost my iPhone 4 is there a way I can locate it??

    I have lost my iPhone 4 is there a way I can locate it??

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPone on the iPhone in Settings>iCloud and wifi or cellular data is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPhone has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have to iPhone play a sound via iCloud.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPhone and report to police and contact your carrier
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPhone (it erases it) using it.
    - Apple will do nothing

  • My iPad got stolen and it is offline on find iPhone, is there a way I can locate it get it back or even get the serial number of it

    My iPad got stolen and it is offline on find iPhone, is there a way I can locate it get it back or even get the serial number of it? I'm really mad and sad about that.

    The only to potentially find is if you can do so via Find My iPhone - which will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or Find My iPad disabled on it.
    If you haven't already done so then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc, and if it's a cellular model then contact your carrier.
    In terms of the serial number, if you have a backup of the iPad on your computer's iTunes then you should be able to go into Edit > Preferences (iTunes > Preferences if on a Mac), select the Devices tab on that, and then hover your mouse pointer of the iPad's backup : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4061
    If the iPad was registered to your iTunes account you might also be able to get it from your support profile : https://supportprofile.apple.com/
