Marker List: Batch Export Marker Regions MISSING
Hi guys,
I am running Audition 3.0.1 on Windows 7 x64 and just went to use the 'Batch Export Marker Regions' function in the 'Markers' panel to save any my marked regions to seperate files.
However, the icon for this seems to be missing completely.
Any ideas what is wrong and how I might get the icon back?
Here's a grab of the panel. As you can see, the icon that should be bottom right just isn't there!
Many thanks in advance,
James.
Hi guys,
I have solved the problem! Although I now realise that I have totally missed how this all works.. Doh.
Basically I was expecting to see the batch export option icon in the 'Marker List' when in 'Multitrack' mode. I now realise that it is only available in 'Edit' mode.
Sorry for wasting your time although this might help out others who make the same mistake as me. I assumed I would be able to do this from Multitrack mode as I find it easy to edit a large VO take in multitrack and then apply effects to the whole track easily. It would be nice to be able to batch export from this view based on the current track settings, but it's not too bad.
Also, for anyone who is wondering you can take a multitrack session down into edit mode with ALL markers in place by going to File->Export->Audio Mixdown. From here it's then a simple case to export all markers out based on your preferences.
So pleased to have solved this one.
Thanks for all responses.
James.

Preserving Marker master comment in batch export
Hello,
I'm doing a quasi-transcription of clips using markers and the comments. I'd like to make subclips of all the markers (with Master Comments) to eventually export to Excel and have a nice rough transcription of interviews etc. However, when I make the subclips from the markers, the Master Comment 1 (which has good, supplementary info and/or dialog) is gone and I lose that info. Is there a way to preserve that master comment when making a sublclip from a marker?

Batch-Processing Marker Regions Problem?
I got a weird one here.
Batch-Saving Marker Regions using the marker name as the file name (which I use just about every day!) is telling me that one particular group of markers already exist at the destination folder, and prompts me to over-write. First off, there are NO files by that name in the destination folder, and second, when I tried to overwrite, it started a save operation that said it was going to take 15 minutes! And this is for a 15-second mono mp3.
I triple-checked that the proper destination folder is selected in the batch processing box.
Any idea what is going on?
Thanks!

AA3.0, XP Pro on a Core Duo processor with 1.2 TB of HD space.I figured it out. In case anyone is interested, Windows reserves certain file names because they are system files, like "COM1, COM2, etc." My client specified the file names for the project, which is why I tried to use "COMx." I guess even he didn't know.
Anyway, I just changed the file name and it worked as per usual.
Cheers!

Files marked as missing in iTunes
My iTunes music storage folder is on an external drive. I recently started iTunes without the drive attached, and when i tried playing songs it obviously couldn't find the songs. Now all of a sudden there a hundreds of songs that are marked as missing, or whatever that mark means to the right of each song. After connecting the drive back I am able to listen to those songs, but only if i double click on the song. iTunes won't play them automatically if these marked songs are next in the sequence. My question is how can i Unmark all these songs so that iTunes once again starts playing them normally. I hope my question is clear enough.
thanks.Try using my update script: http://ottodestruct.com/itunes/update.txt
Rename it to update.js, then run it like any other program. It'll force iTunes to reread all your files. Might take a while, and has no progress meter, so be patient. -
How do I apply color to my marker regions
How do I get my marker region bar to have a different background colors?
cris is bliss wrote:
Right click on what,
I think the previous poster has assigned in Logic's preferences>General>Editing> Right clicking the mouse to open Tools and Shortcut menu.Then when you right click on a region it gives you the option to open the Color Palette ...
else you press Option(Alt)+ C,then select the Marker region you'd like to change its color and click on on the color .
You could also drag and drop any region in the Markers bar

Batch Export Trick for Logic using Markers and XLD
I've always wanted apple to implement batch export of multiple audio files from logic using markers as delimiters. So you can mix a concert and export it in one go without having to hang around and re-start bouncing for each track.
Now you can do this (albeit in a two step process) using Logic 9.1 and the free and wonderful XLD!
Just place markers in your project and bounce as AIFF (this is the only format that seems to work with this, so you are out of luck if your bounce file is going to be larger than 2GB). I suggest placing a marker at the very beginning of the project too so you first file is not called "Timestamp_0" or some such thing. You can even name the markers with the name you want each file to have, though keep in mind files will sort alphabetically of course once they are split if you have a specific order - so maybe preface them with 01, 02, 03, etc etc.
OK - now go get XLD (the GUI version):
http://tmkk.hp.infoseek.co.jp/xld/index_e.html
download, install and run it. No window will appear at first. Open the preferences and choose your desired output format and options, directory, etc
drop the AIFF file onto XLD (I've put XLD into my Finder window toolbar for easy access). When it asks you to open the embedded cue sheet, say "OK" and your markers should appear as a list of CD tracks that you can play double click to play with a player interface and preview.
Then press "Decode" and voila! All your markers as separate audio files with the marker name, in whatever format (including the multiple formats option) you set XLD for.
You can even edit metadata at this stage (but first consider whether your output format supports it)
Some of the formats XLD can produce are
AIFF
WAV
Apple Lossless (saves some space!)
FLAC
AAC
MP3
OGG
etc etc
Personally I think this is an absolutely fantastic trick and am happy to have discovered it. Hope it helps you too.Also, if you have gaps in the original session, put a marker at the end of the previous section and call it something like "end". Then you can uncheck all the "end" 'tracks' in the cue sheet and they wont be exported in XLD.
Oh and it also seems XLD will preface your marker delimited files with their 'CD track' number. Useful to keep them in order, but they will probably want to be changed if you have gaps you took out with extra "end" markers. -
I am a current Final Cut Pro7 user and looking to switch over to Premiere Pro CS6. We edit approx. 100 short (15 sec.) videos daily, and then select them all at the end of the day and batch export them over night using the same export recipe for all. I have having trouble finding an easy way to do this in Premiere pro CS6, as command +E is grayed out if i select more than one sequence at a time.
so far, it appears that i have to select each video individually and manually set encoding recipe and export location for each.... Not only would this be terribly time consuming, but it leaves a lot of room for error and missed videos. I thought i would be able to send all of the sequences to Adobe Media Encoder, but i dont see that option either.
Any suggestions/
thanks!Open Media Encoder and add your Sequences:
File > Add Premiere Pro Sequence
Navigate to your Premiere Project and select it in the list.
You can then select multiple Sequences from the Project (Ctrl+Click)
and load them all at once into Media Encoder and apply
the same encoding preset to all Sequences at the same time. -

I haven't checked the code but from the symptom you describe it could be possible that some fields used to calculate valeus are not getting cleared between calculations. This could result in some values from order the first order one being used in the calculation for values in the second order.

I'm brand-new to Premiere, to this forum, and to video editing generally. I'm hoping someone can help with this problem. I've created several markers for my video (an avi file). I need to export each frame associated with a marker as an image file. I don't want to do this one-by-one because there are a lot of markers and it is very tedious. Is there some way to batch export such frames within the application?
Alternatively, I can extract the <Marker> XML elements from the prproj file and get the images using a Matlab script, if I can figure out what the time is for each marker. The elements look like this:
<Marker Version="1" Index="0">
<First>100072202630400</First>
<Second ObjectRef="33"/>
</Marker>
Does anyone know how to convert the <First> value to a time in seconds?
I should mention that I've tried the PPro Project Utility, but get unreliable results.
Any help will be appreciated.For CS4 and later, you can set up each export and then do them all at once through the Adobe Media Encoder. For earlier versions, you'll have to do each export one at a time.
In either case, the setup for each frame is done manually. There's no auto feature for this. -
Batch export audio in channels grouped
Hi!
My english is not the best so I will try to explain myself as good as possible.
I need to get the 5.1 audio from 11 sequences in discrete channels.
I know how to do this from each and one sequence. Right Click->Export->Audio to AIFF (s)...
But this takes a long time.
Is it possible to make a batch export and get the same result.
If I mark my sequences and choose batch export, the press settings I can only get the AIFFS as mono or stereo, but I cant get it as discrete channels.
I want it to be as same when I choose one individually.
When I use the method each one this is the result:
Sequence name_1
Sequence name_2
Sequence name_3
Sequence name_4
Sequence name_5
Sequence name_6
I hope I have made my problem clear.
Thank you for the help
/SebastianHello.
here is the full script. I made a few changes. Hope it works for you.

ps. Anyone can tell me how can i make the "advanced editor" as default for replies in this forum?

I would like to be able to automatically take a QT movie with Chapters marked, and create individual QT movies of each Chapter. The manual method is quite tedious!
Choose File>Batch Export. It will put all the sequences you have exported into an Export Queue and you can then choose where to send each QT movie by highlighting the sequence and choosing Settings. If you have more than one sequence just control-click on, say, Sequence 2, and choose Batch Export. That will give you a new bin and you can send Bin 2 to a different location than Bin 1.
It sounds like this is what you've been doing, so I don't know why it's not working now. What version of FCP do you have? Have you read up on the process in the manual?

How do i change the size of a clip using batch export?
hi, when i try and do a batch export to change my clips from a DV PAL to PhotoJpeg 320*240 sized clips the "options" button is greyed out. so all i have as export settings are the QT presets in a pulldown list. is there any way i can create my own setting? (and the also save that?)
thxwhat i'm seeing is that
a) selecting all files in Media Man. gives me the option to size and set codecs but not the audio off.
b) selecting all files in Batch Export allows me to pick a format (QT, aiff etc) choose a preset (photoJpeg included) select whether to include audio and video or both but not set the size or customize the QT settings
c) selecting all clips then "file>export>using QT conversion" gives me all options, but seem to grab only the first clip. -
How batch export layers to files png in cc
I am having trouble with an export layers to files script i am wanting to batch export layer to png and this script i have seems to be the one i want although every time i run the script i get this error message "could not complete the action since the destination folder doesn't exist" the script required me to hard code my destination path the path i require is "C:/Users/Tim/Desktop/Backdrops/png/" I am not completely sure why its stating it does not exist any help would be greatly appreciated. i have tried to contact the creator but the post it was on was very old.

Doing a batch export in LR CC doesn't keep me in same attributes screen
I just installed LR CC, and I've noticed that there seems to be a quirky little bug when exporting images. I normally like to go through my images, and narrow down to my selects with the star ratings. I'll then have my attributes show only the 3-starred images, for instance. I select just those 3-starred images that I'm now seeing and do a batch export to PSD files. However, once the export starts and once that first PSD file is created, I am automatically kicked back to the library view of ALL of my images, not just the 3-starred rating ones. I just find this to be an inconvenience as I can no longer make attribute selections stick during an export since I'm constantly kicked back to the view of ALL of my images. This happens in any kind of export situation.
**4/28/15 Edit: it appears as though it's a bug with the "add to this catalog" option that you can check in the export settings. I've been able to export things fine when this is not checked. When it's checked, the export is extremely sluggish to start and then just dumps me back into the view with all my images visible, not just my selected ones.**
Is there a setting I need to adjust here or is this a LR CC bug?
Hoping there's some way to fix this.
Thanks,
-KristineFirst: Send Apple a Feedback. This has been an issue since the first days of X and is still not corrected in Tiger, from the posts I see there. Apple needs to know it matters to you. Click on "Discussions" at the top of this page and then look at the bottom left of the list of forums that comes up
Second: You did send that Feedback, didn't you. In the same corner is the link to the Users' Tips Library. In it—you'll have to do a search—is the tip from Scott Radloff "Making Finder Views Persistant" [title may not be exact] that you want.
Briefly, Apple's overlay of X onto UNIX broke down here. The 'ownership' of the problem windows belongs to one of those greyed out users like "eppp" and "mysql" that you see under your shortname when you look at Details in a Get Info… window on a file. UNIX needs them, so you need them, but you don't need to defer to their idea of what a perfect window looks like. Not if you're willing to become "root" the superuser and tell them how-to. That's Scott's tip, and do be warned: Rootness is all-powerful, and you must use those powers only for good and immediately renounce them when your task is done.
Now, what were you going to do first? Good luck. -
Batch export and chapter markers
Am I missing something? I can find no way to batch export clips and set the option to export chapter markers. Anyone able to do this?
Thanks,
BobThat's correct. Batch export uses the QuickTime Conversion module which does not support chapter markers.
