Labeling video clips with key words

Is there a way to label/tag segments of a video clip that becomes searchable content for later premiere pro use?

I think Russ's suggestion is the clear simple answer. At least that is how I'd go about it, too.
What I'm looking for is a a single clip that has
[black space and audio][clip1][black space and audio only][clip 2][black space and audio][clip3][black space and audio only].....
That is normal.
And I have a followup question on this too.  Now that I have this timeline that looks like this:
[black space and audio][clip1][black space and audio only][clip 2][black space and audio][clip3][black space and audio only].....
I want to cut out all the black space and cut the clips up back the way they were so that I have high quality video and high quality audio together in little clips to take back to the main project.  Do you have a recommended method or tutorial for that?
Thanks a lot.
I can think of two ways to achieve this.
Both should work, but each has an advantage and a possible drawback.
Method A:
0) Turn off the audio volume in the video clip so that only the good audio plays (this could be done later, but I'd start here to make sure it all sounds as it should)
1) Select each desired section and make it a compound clip. These compound clips will appear in the event and you can drag them to any project you want.
Method B:
0) The same - but this is crucial in this method
1) Mark an In point (press I) and Out point (press O) in the timeline. Export as Master File (Only the part which lies in the primary storyline will appear to be selected, but don't worry, the whole section will be exported)
2) Import these just created movies and use them as you will
Now to the advantages and disadvantages: Method A will not use more space for the exported movies, nor will there be an extra compression
Method A will create as many compound clips as the sections you want. A lot of compound clips may make FCP X perform more slowly

  • I have video clips with 4 channels of audio, I can only hear audio recorded on channel one, how do I hear the other channels......?

    I have video clips with 4 channels of audio, I can only hear audio recorded on channel one, how do I hear the other channels......?

    What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system?     Elements 13 on Windows 7
    What is the brand/model/settings of the camera that recorded these videos?        ony  PMW 320
    When you import them into your Premiere Elements project, what does Premiere Elements Properties for that import give for
    the audio description in the way of number of channels? If you open the Audio Meter (Window Menu/Audio Meters) and you play back
    the video in the Premiere Elements Editor, how many channels does the Audio Meter display?   
      I just drag and drop video and when playing back only channel 1 will appear
    What is your intended export for this video in terms of audio as well as video compression and formats?    MP4
    I think you can only use audio if it's recorded on channel 1 or it does not recognize it.
    Thanks for the help if possible,Kevin416 873 8374

  • Does version 12 support producing video clip with AMR audio codec?

    From some documents i used as reference to proceude some videos for my phone Premiere Elements 8 can produce video clips with AMR audio codec. I bought today the Premiere elements 12 but I can not find a way to set AMR audio codec for my video clip. Only AAC audio codec seems available.   Is it possible to add AMR codec to 12 version?

    Neurona17
    Adobe typically supports only current version, and, if you purchased from it, is strict on "within 30 days of purchase": for money back on that current version purchase. I do not believe such a thing as a "change the license for other earlier release such as 8 or 9" exists at Adobe. But, you could ask. If you wish to purchase one of those earlier versions that supports AMR export, you might still find some online.
    Is the before import conversion of AMR to WAV a viable alternative?
    You wrote
    Unfortunately so far I have not been able to generate any useful video clip for my system with this 12 version.
    Is this in regard to the AMR requirement or to any video without the AMR audio?
    Online I have seen that there is a download for the AMR audio codec. Does your system now show that you have such a codec installed on your computer. If not, I am not sure if download of this codec would place it in the Premiere Elements Publish+Share export settings choices, similar to import of some .avi video codecs. (Sometimes 3rd party codecs can create problem, so proceed with caution if you pursue that AMR audio codec idea.
    Please update us on your progress when you get a chance.
    Thanks.

  • Insert a video clip with audio in a sequence

    I've created a sequence out of three subclips and renamed and saved it.  When I try to add another video clip with audio to the end of the last subclip in the sequence it only adds the video, not the audio.
    Please advise

    Edit the video with sound to your timeline, when you are ready to replace the video with pictures, lock the audio tracks by clicking on the locks at the left side of the timeline:
    Clicking on the locks will lock the tracks and will protect them from being affected when you replace the video with pictures.
    Remember to unlock them when you want to edit or add more audio to the sequence.

  • Capturing Video Clip with iSight(?)

    Is it possable to capture a video clip with the built in iSight?
    Ypo be played back in Quicktime, etc?

    Hello polevod & Hilton,
    Nice response polevod. And Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    For Hilton, in addition to the above suggestions, I personally use EvoCam for capture of our family weekend iChat's. It's a try before you buy app that is well worth the $25 registration fee. Been in use for almost 2 years and all app's should be so simple to use. Good Luck, and be sure and check back to let us know how you make out.

  • Using video clips with my ipod

    I am working on a project that requires me to use video clips on my ipod(I have a video ipod). I would like to divide each clip(about 10-20 seconds each) into approximately 10 categories. There would be about 100-200 clips in all. I would like to be able to view these clips on my ipod and that they be organized on my ipod into these 10 categories for easy browsing. The categories and the clips would ideally all have names attached to them. My question is: Is this possible, if it is, how do I go about doing this?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Well that would explain why you cannot add them to your Nano.
    Try using a program such as Handbrake or MPEG-Streamclip to convert these clips to more friendly formats. I have had the best results with these two utilties.

  • Aperture - when you have saved a multi-media slideshow and you export it how do you make sure the audio track retains the volume drops that you programme in? I have video clips with audio, which when they play in the slideshow, I fade the audio (music)?

    Aperture - Sorry I'm new to this so this might be a bit long! I put together an aperture slideshow with a backing music track and some video interspersed with photos. When I exported it to put on you tube the audio backing track had not saved the fades that I had programmed when the video clips played. The video clips had audio on them that I set at one volume whilst fading the backing track. these fades didn't save on the exported version. Any suggestions please? Regards, Maxjackpete

  • Remove a logo from a video clip with content aware fill?

    I know you can remove logo in photos using content aware fill, but you can't do it to a video clip. You can only do it to a frame, but you can't apply it to the entire video. I know photoshop is not a video editing software, but having this sort of feature makes sense for photoshop users especially with content aware fill.

    I'm a career software architect engineer of 35 years, and I have to side with Howard on this one. 
    Like Howard, I feel you're thinking about this way too simplistically.  Trying to work out what best to fill a part of an image with in 3 dimensions (x, y, and time) and have it look believable almost boggles the mind, especially thinking of a general case (your logo example is far to simplistic in itself).  The task is far from a simple looping repeat of what is being done 2 dimensionally on a still frame.  Frankly, it's more likely related to what's done with CGI, where scenes are modeled in 3D (4D actually) so certain elements can be replaced believably.
    Think about it...  If CAF is presently replacing part of an image with something it finds through some heuristics in another part of the image, and the stuff in that part of each frame is changing - and it would, because this is video, not still imagery - then it will select differently every time.  What makes you think it would select something that even resembles what it selected for another frame?  What you'd end up with is a frame by frame mishmash that would just make the outline of the selection obvious.
    Regarding CAF applied to individual frames, then your finding the result isn't coming out as expected in all the frames of the video (e.g., when you're testing this concept) may indicate a problem with the way you're using the tool, or possibly even a bug.  You might want to describe step by step what you're doing and show the result you're [not] getting.

  • Video clip with mail

    Just recently I have noticed that a short video clip attached to an email I send only displays (on my sent copy) a single start/stop line and it only plays audio. My friends say they still can view the video. I have Flip4Mac and usually convert .mov to .wmv before sending. Anyone have the same problem ?? It may be with Flip4Mac. Regards

    I just saw this on another thread:
    ....according to the Flip4Mac forum, one of the moderators writes "There's an issue with Leopard and Quicktime 7.5.5, Apple Mail, Flip4Mac where previews aren't showing". See the following from Flip4Mac:

  • How do I Edit a MPEG1 video clip with QT Pro?

    I have several video clips from my Sony H-1 digital camera that I want to edit. They are in MPEG 1 file format. I have them on my iMac in iPhoto and when I open them in QT Player (bought the Pro key) the Edit features (cut, copy, delete) are greyed out and not usable. I read in another posting that MPEG 1 and 2 cannot be edited. Is this why my edit controls are greyed out? If so, can I convert my video files to something that I can edit? Any help would be most appreciated.
    Forest

    A bit of caution. You don't want "clipping" files as they are just still images dragged from a .mov file. You only get "time" if you drag a "selection".
    Make a "selection" (timeline) and "drag" this over an existing, or new "blank" movie.
    This new file will only show the timeline portion of the file but will be the same file size as the entire "original" MPEG format.
    Using MPEG Streamclip will allow you to "edit" and convert to QT formats. These new files will be sized based on the data in the file.
    On a Tiger machine you'll notice the green + symbol during your drag. Be sure to use Save As and make the new file "self-contained".
    As broke as I am I need all the "free" tools I can find. MPEG Streamclip is now part of of my Mac tools. The conversion to DV Stream alone is great. Being able to control the size (dimensions) and use other export formats is a bonus.

  • Sharing Video Clips with iphoto

    When I import video clips into iphoto everything works perfect. I can view and hear video. But when I share or export with QT Pro I lose the audio track. I am using a Sony Cyber-shot digital camera. I have searched and searched but I cannot find an answer to this question. HELP!

    Your Sony camera probably make MPEG-1 files and QuickTime (or any app that uses it) can't extract audio from these "muxed" file formats.
    Download and install MPEG Streamclip (free). It can convert your .mpg files to other formats (.dv for iMovie or iDVD). Audio track comes along, too.
    If your camera creates MPEG-2 formats you'll also need the MPEG-2 Playback Component (sold at the Apple Store for $20).

  • Sync multiple video clips with one audio track

    I'm an FCPX noob, trying to sync some clips.  I recorded a 1.5 hour concert with a DSLR along with an audio track using a separate digital recorder.  I have seven video clips, all in sequence (stopping and restarting the camera because of clip length limitations) and one long audio track in WAV format.  The audio track is longer than the combined video clips, and there are some short dead spaces in between the video clips when I turned off/on.  Now I'm trying to sync them but when I do, the video clips get stacked together with lots of overlap.
    I made a test with 3 minute video and audio clips and had no problem.  But when I try to do the whole event, I get a jumbled mess.
    I could cut the audio into pieces and sync each piece with its corresponding video, but that seems to defeat the sync process, as well as being a lot of work.  And, wouldn't I end up with lots of overlap anyway, since my audio clips would have to be longer than my video clips?
    Am I missing an easier way to do this, or a way to arrange things better?  I can't imagine the problems with several cameras and several audio tracks; my project is actually pretty simple, since it is very linear.
    Any suggestions?  Thanks--

    Sorry to take so long getting back to you.  Thank you for this advice, but I'm not sure I'm doing it correctly.  Is there a way to set the angle on all of the clips at the same time? 
    Yes. Select all the clips you want in the browser, and then in the inspector fill in the camera angle with the value you want. This can be just about anything, it does not have to be a number. I prefer to name  it something meaningful, like "wide" or something.

  • Safari crashing viewing video clips with realPlayer plugin

    I tried to watch video clips on the www.cbsnews.com site. The first time I selected a video I was asked whether I wanted to use Windows Media Player or RealPlayer. I chose RealPlayer. Now every time I try to play a video from this site Safari crashes.
    Does anyone know how to deselect RealPlayer as the plugin for this site? Where is this information (choice of plugin) being stored?

    iBod,
    Thanks for the speedy reply. Two comments.
    1) it is really difficult to paw through the huge number of cookies without a search function. I finally found and killed the cbsnews cookies and the Safari problem went away.
    2) I have not had any success with Mozilla Firefox, however. I have deleted all cookies, but it seems to have RealPlayer hardwiredas its video viewer. Do you know how I can change that?
