Monitors for each video track?

Is there a way to have seperate Monitor windows for each video track, so as I scrub through a Sequence I can have a preview of what is on each track all at the same time (without using the Multi Camera editor)

What I do is find a sync point in the first clip and add a numbered clip marker to that point (for example, a camera flash or a music hit), and then edit it into the sequence. I do the same for the next clip(s), using the same numbered marker, and add those into the sequence. When I've added all the clips, select them all, and go to Clip > Synchronize > Numbered Marker, selecting the numbered marker that is common to all of the files. Once you hit OK, all of the clips will be synced around that point.
Definitely easier than looking at a four-up display and trying to figure out which one is which, IMO.

Video Playlist with description for each video

Hi all,
I'm trying to create a page for one of my clients where I will store a bunch of videos. I came up with something like this.
http://www.relationsmith.com/gunnery/media/gunnery-media.html
You click on each button and you watch different videos. Pretty simple! Now my challenge is this:
I would like to display different descriptions for each video whenever the viewer clicks on one of the buttons with the video names. If anybody could give me any clues about this I'd really appreciate it.
Veli

kglag,
Thank you so much for your answer.
I am very new to xml. Could you give me an example of supplying the data to the SWF.

How do I copy and paste text style for multiple video tracks?

hello,
I am creating multiple video tracks with text. I want to easily copy and paste the style, i.e., Font, Color, Size - rather than having to scroll down the giant list of fonts to find the one I want, then change the color, then change the size - each and every time. This is arduous.
I tried copy / paste of one text onto a new video track, but when I type in a different word, it alters the original.
I have 9 tracks of video for 9 different texts that will pop in and out of my video. I would like to be able to copy/paste then just change the text. This would save me a huge amount of time.

I know of no way to alphabetized the Adobe Styles that come with the program.
If you had the time and the inclination, you could rename them all to force them to appear alphabetically, but that does not seem all that practical.
But, if your interest is in the Styles that you save and you do not hit the Reset File List, the new Styles will be at the bottom of the list and you can name them so that they appear that alphabetically at the bottom of the whole Styles list. But that does not address the matter of you having to scroll to the bottom of the Styles list.
In some instances, some things that you think that you cannot do in Premiere Elements obvious features, can be done by computer keyboard shortcuts. I check the keyboard shortcuts under the Edit Menu/Keyboard Customization and unfortuately did not find any that would be applicable to this situation.
As for your changes in one text file popping up unwantedly in another text file, that is because you have text files with the same name. Look into creating duplicates (with different file names) in Project Assets at the onset.

Long load times for large video tracks

Is there a recommended file size to stay under for video tracks in iTuens U? I know the hard limit is 500Mb per upload, but it seems as though any file that is more than about 10 minutes in length takes upwards of 10 minutes or longer to load. A short video (under 5 minutes) will load immediately. Is iTunes content not really streamed?

No, it is not streamed. But iTunes U isn't setup to be a streaming service. If you sniff packets (I didn't want to, but our security guy made me because of a local issue ... long story), you'll see that content is grabbed by way-of-an HTTP GET. There is a certain sense to that ... iTunes and iTunes U are, effectively, aggregators of content. You can get iTunes U to stream ... sort of ... but it is not a true streaming service (and, in fairness, it wasn't designed to be).
There is a trick you can play with encoding ... I don't have my notes with me (someone will remember) ... wherein you can ask that content be encoded to play as quickly as possible ... "instant on". There are a couple of apps, I believe, that help automate the process. It is not the same as streaming, but is helpful in situations in which you want a streaming effect.

Is there a waveform monitor for the audio track in premier elements 13?

trying to fine tune audio,getting hits on the supplied sound tracks.
thanks

Thanks for the last two replies with details that turned around my approach to your question. It was not until your post 3 when you mentioned Music Scores did I realize that you were referring to Music Scores developed in the concept of being able to adjust their duration without altering music arrangement. You were not referring to non-Music Score music.
In the case of Premiere Elements Music Scores, I see no way to visualize their waveform in the Premiere Elements audio tracks. Double clicking a Timeline Music Score brings up the Score Properties dialog and not the Preview Window to inspect the waveform.
When "non Music Score" music is imported into Premiere Elements, it goes through a conforming process which automatically generates the cfa (audio) file and pek (waveform in audio track) file. And, these files are characterized by a waveform visible on the audio track with the appropriate audio display format. For each audio conformed, there are two files generated by the program, cfa (audio) and pek (related to waveform seen in the audio track).
When you drag a Music Score to the Premiere Elements 13 soundtrack, first you see "Generating" and "Conforming" and then Score Property dialog .When all is said and done, the Music Score is in the audio track with no waveform. If you go looking in the Media Cache Folder to determine if a cfa and pek set exist there after use of one Music Score (Drama in this example), you should find that the Drama conforming process generated 71, not 2 files, representing cfa and pek sets.
With regard to hard drive space...1 non Music Score file's conformed audio files might be expected to take up about 68.2 MB while one Music Score file's conformed audio files might
be expected to take up 263 MB.
Please take a look at what you have in the way of conformed audio in the Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit path
Local Disk C
Users
Owner
AppData
Roaming
Adobe
Common
Media Cache Files Folder
At this time I do not know the explanation for the absence of waveform in the Music Score representation on the Timeline audio track. Need to do more homework on that.
Please let me know if you confirm my observations above.
Thank you.

Premiere CS4 effect switch for each video channel

Premiere CS4
Windows
Gentlemen !
Does anyone know if there is a Master Effect Switch for each individual video channel
What I am saying is, is there any way to turn Off or On the effect for each individual video channel
Let's say I wanna turn Off all video effects for video channel 1
Just similar to the icon of the eye or lock for each channel
I have about 40 clips on channel one's timeline , I wanna turn all effect Off for a minute, check something the turn it back On !
Thanks

With the Nested Sequences, turning thing OFF for performance would be easy, but Nesting does take some additional Resources.
For a Feature Request, see this LINK.
Good luck,
Hunt
BTW - some Effects hardly seem to slow things down, while some are quite resource heavy. For playback, Rendering the Timeline normally makes things very smooth, at the expense of the time to Render.

Transition only for one video track?

I have 4 parallel video tracks to have 4 videos run simultaniously in every corner of the screen. I want to fade in and out each video clip separately. When I add a transition to a video track, all other tracks below are faded as well. Is this a bug? The only but inconvenient solution is to set keypoints and manually fade the transparency.
How can I prevent the lower video tracks from beeing influenced from the transition in the upper tracks?

It doesn't matter whether I convert the clips into compound clips or not. In the first picture you see the bad result with normal clips, in the second with compound clips. It also doesn't matter when I put the transition inside the compound track by double clicking it (picture 3). It is all the same: The track with the transition influences all tracks below. If I had more than two clips, all other lower tracks are faded by the single transition in the upper track. Any idea?
It is Final Cut Pro X 10.0.2.
Picture 1 (normal clips):
The result in the viewer:
Picture 2 (compound clips):
The result in the viewer:
Picture 3 (compund clip with transition inside the upper track):

Multiple audio streams for 1 video track

Hi I have a few different sountracks I want to use with one video asset.
I want to avoid duplicating the video track and putting a version of the audio in it.
If I have an Audio tab in my menus with music and lyrics, one with instrumental only and a dolby 5.1 surrond
how do i target the buttons to choose different audio as i click on the 5.1 let's say, it will choose to play stream #3 5.1 surrond.
Been looking in the manual but could't find anything.
Any help is appreciated
thanx
jm

Sorry about the links -:(
Anyway follow these steps and it should work (one approach, not difficult to do, I just wrote the steps in small bites )
Press F3 Key so we are looking at the same layout in DVD SP
1.) Make a menu with two buttons, label them Audio A and Audio B
2.) Make a Track (the "TRACK")
3.) Place your video on the video portion of the TRACK
4.) Place your Audio A on A1 track and Audio B on the A2 track
5.) Drop a chapter marker at the end of the TRACK (one should be at the begininng of the track by default)
6.) Click Add Story from the top Bar for the TRACK
7.) Name that story Story A, add the first Chapter Marker to the Story
8.) In inspector for Story A deselect/remove check marks for all audio except for 1 (uncheck 2-7)
9.) Duplicate Story A as Story B
10.) In inspector for Story B deselect/remove check marks for all audio except for 2 (uncheck 1, 3-7)
11.) Set Button 1 from menu to Story A, Button 2 story B
Note that this method will not allow toggling between the audio. A quick way to permit toggling is to do as above, but have both Audios (1 & 2) checked in steps 8 & 10
Create a script called PRESTORYA and set it as a prescript for Story B, with the following:
Set System Stream AU(Audio Stream 1)
Create a script called PRESTORYB and set it as a prescript for Story B, with the following:
Set System Stream AU(Audio Stream 2)
FWIW the links worked just now (downloads a zip file directly to HD, take a look in activity window in Safari, maybe there for you?)

One Monitor / Window Per Video Track? Possible?

I really need to sync multiple video tracks / clips and Multicamera will not work.
It would be nice it Video Track One / Two / Etc. had their own window.
I could place them where I want .. and adjust the many clips to where I want them .. without switch back and forth to the program / source monitors.
Has anyone else figured this out?

There is a Source, Program, and Reference Monitor .. a trim monitor .. and a multi camera monitor .. but all I want is a monitor per track .. and a overall monitor.
It would be nice to duplicate them too .. to have a set of small thumbnails .. and then larger ones on a second monitor.

Can an iPad be used as an external monitor for DSLR video?

I am looking at purchasing an external monitor for my DSLR to assist with shooting video.
If I was to purchase an iPad, would I be able to connect it as an external monitor for live view while shooting video?
If it is at all possible then I'll definitely be purchasing it because that way I can have a number of uses for it and save money at the same time!

No.
iPad cannot be tethered to a camera.

Can I open a second Source Monitor for the audio track of a video?

I really dislike having to switch to the audio waveform in the Source Monitor pane when I want to tinker with a clip's audio track. I usually try to stay away from needing to use a panes drop down menu as much as possible. Is there a way to get this in a different window?
Using CS6

You cant tinker with the audio track in the Source Monitor. Apart from IN and Out Point setting.
Normally one would expand the audio track in the time line...zoom in/out to suit and maybe use the tilde shortcut key to view it all full screen.

Message Monitoring for each within the BPM process

I have a question concerning message monitoring within a BPM process. I receive an IDOC into my BPM process. I then have three transformation steps before sending an E-mail to the end receiver. When I look at the messages in the workflow log, I am unable to see the message after each transformation step. In the log display if I click the instance ID for all steps except the first step I am unable to see a message.

Is there a way to make the message persistent after each step within the process? I would like to see the data after each step in the workflow log. Is this possible?
I do receive the e-mail from the send step so I know that it's completing the process. What I'm not sure of is if each step individually processed the data as I expected.

Which Studio Reference Monitors for a video edit suite?

Sorry that this questions does not have to much to do with Final Cut/Logic Pro though i don't know where i can ask people how know an video edit suite.
I'm looking at buying some Studio reference monitor and have found a pair i think are going to have what i need, untill the question of what happens if i wanted to go from a 2 monitor system and then the need came around for editing 5.1 dolby sound.
The monitors i'm looking at are Roland DS-5 2-way active digital Reference monitors. these have built in amps.
thanks for the help

my suggestion would be to get something that's an industry standard. that way you can somewhat insure that you're hearing what everyone else is hearing. this is important. i use genelec monitors and i love them. if you have a small room get some 1030 or 8040 monitors.. if you have a larger room, go for a pair of 1031's or 8050's.. then add from there.. also make sure to get a totally passive attenuator: ie.. a-designs atty, or maybe even go into the dangerous line to if you want surrond.. also you have the nautilus stuff and more.. but make sure to take the standard high road and you won't regret it in the end. i have gone from totally crappy monitors to genelecs and everything in between. which means that i have lost money on upgrades when i should have just started with the standard from the beginning..

Can't use 2nd monitor for Desktop Video - DisplayPort issue?

I just got my Mac Pro 8 core (2009). I have two monitors connected to it. Anything that happens on the second monitor(connected to the DisplayPort via a DisplayPort to DVI adapter) is choppy. I can't even move or reposition windows smoothly.
Additionally, Final Cut Pro will not let me use the second monitor to play my video out as I could with my previous mac pro (2008) which had two DVD ports.
What's up with this DisplayPort causing these issues?

Hi,
If you can't see the basic HP UEFI boot menu information with a DVI connection then you have a hardware issue. It's either your monitors or DVI cable or the DVI port on your PC. It's definitely not a software issue as digital drivers don't get loaded until later in the Windows boot process.
Test the monitors and the DVI cable on another PC to ensure that they work correctly. Alternatively, try a different DVI cable and monitor on your PC.

Prem El 7: Previewing individual video tracks

Hi All,
I am new to Prem Elements 7 and have been spending a lot of time on my first project.
Some simple things are holding me up and I can't resolve with the Help centre.
I have 3 video tracks stacked in the timeline.
A key problem is how to select and preview in the monitor panel each video track.
As default, the monitor will only preview the top video track in the stack. So for me, it will preview track 3.
But I want to be able to switch between video tracks and view the content of each track in the preview monitor to help with editing decisions.
Can anyone help please?
Many thanks.

Mike
You can do as SG suggests in that you double click the video clip on Video Track 1, 2, or 3 to bring up its Preview Window.
But, consider the following when and if applicable:
a. staggering the clips of Video Track 1, 2, 3 (train arrangement) and then clicking above the Timeline to move/direct the Timeline Indicator to the video clip location to view that clip in the Edit Mode Monitor.
b. if you wanted a before/after, doing a split screen effect where you drag the Crop video effect (Effects/Video Effects/Transform/Crop) into the clips and use the Edit Efffect to crop the clips to display side by side in the Edit Mode Monitor....if find, more space to do that with 16:9 project.
As has been stated, if there are no transparencies in the clip in Video Track 3 and you are not adjusting Opacity, all that you are going to see is what is on Video Track 3 in the Edit Mode Monitor.
