Motion track only part of a video

Is there a way to only motion track a small sequence of a video? I have a 5 minute video, and after a minute a house shows up along the road. And I want a text animation to track that house for the 6-7 seconds you can see it. But if I add a 3D camera tracker, it adds to the whole video, and that takes forever...

Duplicate the item. Trim it. Use the camera tracker on the trimmed duplicate.
This is rather basic, so I'm guessing that you'd benefit from going through the basic getting-started materials before going further:

i purchased an album from itunes,2 of the tracks only partly downloaded.itunes have since sent me the tracks again but they wont sinc with my ipod,which still has the defective tracks on it.any help would be great.

First, I would suggest that you try restoring your iPod (although it sounds like it might be a problem with your iTunes or the files themselves).
For info on restoring and iPod, see this:
Restoring iPod to factory settings
Also, check out the possible solutions in this article, and see if it helps with your issue:

Motion tracking is not working for videos but works for images?

Motion tracking is not working for videos but works for images. When the videos is drop onto the tracking object the videos corner don't appear highlighted. I am working on windows 7 with version 13.1.

Are you within 30 days of purchase for the Premiere Elements 13? And, did you purchase as a download from Adobe? If so, you can
apply for a return/refund for 13. If you purchased elsewhere, then you would be governed by the return/refund policy of the seller.
Adobe no longer sells version 12, so you would have to find a vendor who still has it in stock and purchase it. There is no way to "downgrade"
13 to 12.
What you may want to do is to download and install the Premiere Elements 12 tryout from the following web site to verify that 12 Motion
Tracking works for you; whereas 13 cannot with regard to use of video for the Motion Tracking source media.
Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 Direct Download Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 Direct Download Links, Premiere too | ProDesignTools
Apparently this web site does not sell the tryout. It just makes it available for use.
Before I posted my reply to you I looked at Motion Tracking with video source media on both Premiere Elements 12/12.1 and 13/13.1 on the same Windows 7 64 bit computer.
If any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you.

Buttons that play motion track only when selected

I'd like to create a chapter menu such that as the chapter buttons are selected, a short loop of motion video (or audio+video) track plays somewhere on the screen, When focus moves away from the button, the track either goes away entirely or freezes at its start frame.
A good example of what I'm talking about would be the chapter menus of any of the Lord Of The Rings Extended Editions.
Is this possible with DSP?

The other way to achieve the effect is to use overlay shapes as masks which you make transparent when selected. You composite the motion areas as part of the background and then make an overlay to cover them. Set the overlay shape to be large enough and make it fully opaque when not selected/activated. You can then reveal the video underneath as you move from button to button.
This will work much faster than moving from menu to menu but there are some issues to consider...
Firstly, when you click on a button, your player may remove ALL overlay masks momentarily which will reveal all background videos. Similarly, when returning to the menu you may have a slight delay when the menu first appears, so that all video is again visible for a fraction of a second. This effect is not seen on every player, but some are worse for it than others.
Secondly, there is no way of controlling where abouts you start the video clip as the mask is removed - it will simply loop in the background and each time the mask is removed the clip will show from where it currently is.
However, if these are not major issues for you, then this technique will give you faster responses to your button selection and activation than moving between menus. If you want to have finer control over things then the multi-menu approach is the only one to consider!

Rotating only part of a video clip

Hi,
I changed the position of my camera while filming a video clip. Can I now rotate only part of that clip in iMovie, so that all the frames are the same?
Thank you.

You can do this using TransformMovie, available here:
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/21859
Also, MPEG Streamclip can rotate video while maintaining the aspect ratio as well as the interlacing when converting to DV, which is what iMovie prefers as an input:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/mpegstreamclip.html
There is also a plug-in for iMovie from GeeThree called rotate/scale that might do the job:
http://geethree.com/slick/index.html
You will have to export the clip in question first, then re-import after correction.

How to make a link to play only part of a video

Is there a way to make a link to play only a part of an embedded video (from timecode - to timecode)?

Hello,
You can achieve this by using the rectagle tool. You can create a rectangle and place it in the background and change the fill color of the rectangle to "None".
It will make the rectangle transparent and you can also add a hyperlink to it.
If you want to have different hyperlinks to different pages (like you mentioned you want to be linked to next page) then you should not use Master pages as you need to add these rectangles to the pages and not master pages.
If you add the rectangles on Master Page then you can only add one link to it and that will not solve the purpose. And if you use Master page and add rectangle to page then the Rectangle will always be above the Master page content (Master page content is by default in the background and cannot be brought up).
Another option is to add rectangle to master page background and duplicate your master page to create multiple copies of it. After that you can add required links to the rectangles in the master page and associate the pages to the corresponding Master pages.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Sachin

Play only part of a video and set seek bar accordingly

Is there a way to load and play clips from a larger video with FLVplayback in Flash CC AS3?
For example, if my flv video is 5 minutes long and has 10 cuepoints, how do I play only from cuepoint x to cuepoint y?
ALSO, I would like the seekbar handle to go to 0% at cuepoint x, and at 100% rest at cuepoint y. This way, the user can only seek through the current clip.
This will let me load the video one time, and then use different parts of it as needed.
I thought I had found a reference to flvplayback play() method that had a start parameter, but could not find examples.
System: Windows 7, Adobe CC.
Thanks.

you can use the seek method to start play from cp x. unless you're using a streaming server likefms or redhat, you must wait until the video has loaded up to cp x.
you can use a cp listener to check when cp y has been reached.
you can control the seekbar if you make your own. ie, you can't use the flvplayback seekbar.

Motion Tracking Problem

Hi im am very new to After Effects Cs4 and i am trying to do some simple motion tracking on some of my videos. When i try to place my track points on a high contrast spot and the click anylize my track does not stay in place and just pounces around the video. I have tried everything to fix this but just cant figure it out. If any one can help please leave a responce.
Thank You.

In CS4 a version of Mocha AE is already included. I would prefer this, if the
AE tracker fails on your shot.
Here are some video tutorials to get startet:

Also, I highly recommend to use Mocha in combination with my MochaImport tool.

Possible to do the 3d motion tracking text in video with only adobe products?

I am very interested in doing some 3d text in some video with motion tracking, such as you see in the opening shots in the show Fringe.
You will have a scene of maybe a street in the city, the camera is looking forward and moving, you have 3d block text that seems to be just hovering there up off the ground but looks like a real physical 3d object in the shot as the camera moves around.
I have been looking up tutorials for this in After effects on youtube but they always use other non adobe products as well such as boujou or 3ds max, I am wondering if it is possible to make the same shot with only adobe products. If so, what whould I use other than after effects. And lastly, can anyone point me to a good free tutorial using only adobe programs if there is one out there?
I have seen one video of someone adding text to a moving video but it was flat or plastered onto a wall and not the nice block letters that look like a sculpture in the video.
Thanks.

I am wondering if it is possible to make the same shot with only adobe products.
No, you can't and that settles all your other questions. For tutorials, refer to VideoCoPilot's matchmoving and set extension stuff, but even then you will need to at least use some comemrcial third-party plug-ins.

Motion Tracking: Analyzes only first 6 frames

Hi,
I using the FCP "Send to Motion project" command on 2 clips (1 HDV video+1 still. I tried with various material and various FCP sequences and I always end up having a weird problem and maybe someone here can tell me what I’m doing wrong. I set the in and out at the beginning and end of the clip in the Motion timeline (actually, they are set as such by default). I apply the Motion tracking behavior to the still. When I click “analyze” in the Motion tracking Hud, it analyzes the first 6 frames and then stops as if the task was complete. I tried starting from the end instead, it did the same, analyzed the last 6 frames only. In FCP, the still's duration is the same as the clip underneath, same thing in Motion 3.
Any idea what I’m doing wrong?
Thanks

It may not be complete - Motion may have lost the tracking point - perhaps it moved too far between frames.

Help with linking a layer to motion tracked video

Not sure of the best way to describe this. I have a video with shadow in it which only moves slightly when camera pans a little.
Ive created a static image and removed the shadow in photoshop although could have probably done that using the clone stamp in AE.
However, the problem I have is that when the photoshop image is imported and I create the mask around the image where my shadow is on the video, the image is not tracked or linked to the video... How do I link it to the motion tracked video so that it moves with the video ?

Hiya
Yeah one below.. What you will see is the photoshop file, then the null layer followed by the original footage. In effect I need the photoshop image to track the movement of the camera as when I currently play the video, when the camera moves it looks as though a chunk of grass (the mask) is moving different from the rest of the scene.

Two slow motion parts in one video?

Hi!
How do I have 2 slow motion parts in one video? I have the iPhone 5s and it only lets me slow mo once. Is there any app that does this? Thanks!

I don't use iMovie (I am a FCP X guy :-)) and in fact only have iMovie '09 in mac, but upon opening it was not hard to find (see the picture below). Basically, select the clip, press the letter "i" to open the inspector and drag the slider to make run slower (or faster).
I imagine it would be the same in a more recent version.

Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?

Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?

haben
From looking at the specifications of your camera (SJCam 4000), we know already what video compression your camera is using. It is H.264.
A H.264.mov file should be supported by Premiere Elements 11. On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 11 running?
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer? And, are you running QuickTime and Premiere Elements 11 from a
User Account with administrative privileges? Please go to Premiere Elements 11 Publish+Share/Computer/QuickTime to confirm that you find
presets there for the QuickTime choice there.
What are the properties of these H.264.mov files - is it 1080p30 (1920 x 1080p30) or something else? Do you know if this camera is recording with a variable or
a constant frame rate?
Please review and consider and then we will decide what next.
Thank you.
