Movie, offset start points...
I have a movie that begins at 7.20 (7 sec, 20 frames) how can I move the movie over to where 7.20 begins on beat one in logic? I'm having a tough time with this one. Thanks!
In the actual quicktime-movie float is a "Movie Start" number.....change it.

Move the start point - Muse template
I've used a Muse template to create a site but the site starts at -100 and I want to change that to zero as when it uploads in different devices it is not centred. I can't find how to change this in the Master?
Home
I ended up shifting everything over, but it would still be good to know. This all looks ok on my big PC screen but on my old one the Header is out and moved the address line at the top down over the header line. On my ipad it's ok but not centred ..... Lots to learn! -
Add Mouse - Cannt move start point
Captivate v5.5
A work colleague using v5.5 is unable to move the start point of the mouse pointer trail they add to a slide using Insert/Standard Object/Mouse or the insert mouse tool bar.
They can move the pointer end to place they want it to finish but unable to grab and drop the start point and place it where they want the mouse to start from.
I have tried it on my v5.5 and it works OK for me.
Any ideas please as to what she needs to do - or why this might be ?
NoelHi Noel,
If you are using mouse pointers in more that one slide, then the end point of the mouse pointer on the first slide, becomes the start point on the second and so on.
This is done to keep the continuation of the mouse pointer across the slides. -
How do I move the in point forward
(DVDSP 4)
All of the buttons on my menu work just fine. Unfortunately when the video files were encoded the person who encoded him left 5 seconds of black at the beginning of each video segment. Now, whenever you hit "play all" you get 5 seconds of black before the selected video segment begins (the 5 secs are of course part of the finished video segment). I'm not comfortable with that much black. I'd like to move the start point up by 5 seconds so that there is no black.
Is there any way I can tell DVDSP to skip the 5 seconds of black?
(I used compression markers in FCP to tell DVDSP where to start and stop different tracks.)In addition to what Drew has mentioned, if each clip is in a different track, you can make use of the *Clip Start Trim* function, available in the Inspector when you click on the video asset (once it's placed in the Track). Adjusting it for video means that you've have to do the same for the corresponding audio clips, of course.
Or, if the clips all reside in a single track, any reason that trimming from the start or end - you know, when you hover over the beginning (or end) of a clip, you get the Trim tool - isn't working for you? -
How do you move a track region in Garage Band to a new starting point without altering the existing length of the track? Thanks.
What exactly are you trying to do? You can drag any region by grabbing it in the middle of the upper area with the highlighted name of the region. However, if you move it towards the end of the track, the length of the track will get longer, to accommodate the extra part of the region. DO you want to speed up the region, to shorten it or do you want to trim it? You can simply grab the right margin of the region and drag it, to make the region shorter.

I'm unable to change the Project Start Point. ( I can change the end point easily)
On page 151 of the manual it states:
"You can move the project start point to an earlier position..."
I can't find a way to do it. Are other able to change it. If so, please explain the procedure.Mmmmm,…..I just noticed this as well…….
Anyway, try this:
For the sake of this demonstration start a new project.
Click the mouse pointer on the playhead in the ruler,
now the project start indicator should appear, hover the mouse pointer above it until this indicator appears,
when you see it left click, hold and scroll to the left.
Good luck! -
Movie start points in a session
In addition to my previous post, i have a problem with Movie start points and tempo changes as well. Please correct me if i am wrong but in Logic 7 it was possible to set a movie smpte point (say 10.20.17.22) as Bar 1 of the arrangement thus meaning you could write a piece for a 2 min extract of movie without having to lay the whole movie in place and skip to the point you were writing for (after all, that is the sole point of having a SMPTE time start function). In 7, when a tempo change or curve was applied, the arrange would take the SMPTE set at bar 1 as the start of the movie and thus the movie would not slip (i.e 10.20.17.22 = bar 1 period). However, trying to achieve the same function in Logic 8 doesn't seem to work. Any tempo changes to an arrangement slips the whole movie against the time line regardless of bar 1 position, it seems that Logic is taking into account the negative bars at the start of the arrangement (i.e @120bpm bar 1 = 10.20.17.22 but @140bpm bar 1 would become a different SMPTE point in the movie). I am slightly worried by this problem as it is one of the main functions i carry out professionally. If i can't a) write to picture accurately and b)change tempo without slipping an entire movie file then the whole function seems a bit of a waste of time.
Select all songs in the list, do Get Info, look at the bottom of the window and set Remember Position to No. Say OK.

Set start point in movie buttons?
Is there any way to set the starting point of a movie (scene) button with any degree of accuracy? Apple's stupid sliders are about as elegant as using a twig as a screwdriver and it's driving me nuts. Moving the slider even a single pixel moves the video forward/backward 30-45 seconds, which is completely unacceptable.
I tried that, but unfortunately iDVD isn't understanding what I want to do.
Here's what I did: In iMovie, I cropped a much smaller segment of my movie (about 35 seconds), starting the crop at the point where I wanted. I exported this clip out of iMovie as a DV file (saved on my desktop). In iDVD, I went to the appropriate "scene selection" page and highlighted the button for which I wanted to set the video. I then dragged my DV file from my desktop onto the video area in the button.
What I EXPECTED to happen is, I EXPECTED the video in the button to change to the video in the file I dragged in, while clicking on that button would bring me to the appropriate chapter in my movie.
What ACTUALLY happened is iDVD created an entirely new button which, when clicked on, plays the cropped DV file that I originally created.
Dumb, dumb, dumb. -
the nano won't let me move ahead or backwards listening to a lecture. It only will go to the start point. How can I move along gradually?
You'll want to read about the playback controls on page 21 of your iPod's User Guide, specifically the fast forward and rewind controls.

Can't fine tune scene icon starting point
Hello.
I have an iMovie HD project that I am finalizing in iDVD 6. It is 90 minutes long and divided into ten chapters. iDVD 6 automatically created motion icons for each of the ten chapters. For ease of editing, I have turned Motion off for now.
I can click once on each icon, and a slider appears above it that allows me to set the starting point for that icon's movie. The problem is that I can't finely select the starting point I want. Even if I move my mouse the shortest distance possible, the video jumps by about one minute increments. Same thing when I use the right or left arrows on the keyboard. I've tried variations with the shift, control, option and command keys, but nothing worked, and iDVD Help has no solution that I can find.
Is there any way that I can get the movie sliders to move in much smaller increments, preferably frame by frame? Thanks!I never found out anything on this, so I just finished the project as best I could. Now I have Final Cut, and doubt I'll use iDVD again. Good luck!

Creating timeline space before the current start point
Ok, this is probably a simple answer, but I'm relatively new at FCP:
After review a sequence, I realize that I want to add clips BEFORE that sequence's current start point. I can do this by grabbing all the clips on the timeline and sliding them to the right, but this is cumbersome. Is there a simpler way of doing this?INSERT editing. F9...the YELLOW option.
Or...press TTTT (T four times) and grab the clip in front of everything and it will highlight everything after it...then move it down to give you some room to work.
I find that my single most helpful tool...use it a lot.

I just recently up graded from AI CS6 to AI CC and I am having issues with my pen tool. If I create a starting point and then make another point it does not allow me to make the second point an end point. The pen tool stays active and I either have to click to isolate the path or I have to return to the first point and close the path. Please help.
artisttouch,
If you cannot close the Pen Tool by switching to another tool, as a temporary measure you may try pressing P (for Pen).
To solve it, you may try the list.
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
If possible/applicable, you should save curent artwork first, of course.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Get instantly the coordinate of end and start point of line, when moving it
hello guys,
i'm just wondering on how to get the coordinate of Start and End point of a line when I'm using PathWrangler wrangler = new PathWrangler(this); this latter allows the paint components to be dragged, so i want to get instantly the coordinate of the Start and End point of the line.
MY AIM IS: i want whenver an intersection between 2 lines occur( the line is being dragged so intersection may occur between the two lines) i want to draw a circle having as center the intersection of the 2 lines.
i managed to write a code that draws 2 lines and a circle having a center the intersection of both lines. here is the code:
