Multi Cam View

Perhaps someone can explain what is happening... I have a 2 camera edit.... Both cameras are synced on timeline.  I dragged them into a new sequence - enabled multi cam and then opened the multi cam monitor. When I right click on timeline video, I see the two cameras and can select either one. But for whatever reason, in the multi cam monitor view, the 2nd cam does not show... it is there, but the image does not. I only see the video from cam 1. I have closed and reopened Premiere - did not work.. I opened up other similar projects, and the 2nd cam is there in multi cam monitor, but in the current project I am working on, I cannot get the 2nd cam to show in the monitor... I am baffled... I am using CS5 on a Windows 8 computer.

Actually, I decided to start over, recreate the embedded multi-cam sequence and this time in the pop-up window I selected the option to create sequence from all cameras. For whatever reason it worked. I hope this helps.

  • Unable to See Camera Angles in Multi-Camera View

    Hello Adobe Community,
    I seem to be missing the ability to see my camera angles in Multi-Camera view as you can see in the picture below.
    I feel it may caused by me trying to get Adobe Encore to work. I have been trying to get Encore by installing and un-installing an older version of Premiere CS6 with no success. On a side note, Premiere Pro CC 2014 crashes on launch.
    I'm running Premiere Pro CC on a MAC running OS X version 10.9.4 with 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7 with 8GB 1333 MHz DDR3.

    Hi Sascha,
    No i cannot see the buttons either.
    Following is how the view is embedded.
    View - > Tray - >viewcontaineruielement-> wnd_selection_screen.
    Am i missing something?
    regards,

    Brief title for your desired feature: Separate windows for Multi-camera view and Program Monitor, with ability to tilde toggle to full screen either or both.
    How would you like the feature to work?
    The Multi-camera view and the Program Monitor should occupy separate, individually resizable and maximizable windows. 
    Why is this feature important to you?
    The way these interface elements are currently squeezed into the same window is extremely limiting as far a viewing options.  When the Multi-camera view is displayed, users can no longer do a full-screen preview of their edit, nor can they do a full screen preview of their multi-camera angles.  This is unnecessarily restrictive.  By putting the Multi-camera view in it's own window, and allowing it to be tilde maximized to full screen, users would have so much more flexibility for viewing their camera angles and their final edit while editing multi-camera sequences.

    Hi Kevin,
    I'm not sure how sticking the Multi-Camera View together with the Program Monitor does anything to clean up the interface.  But supposing it does somehow, how can the person responsible for this change justify 'cleaning' the interface at the tremendous expense of functionally? 
    The current design simply isn't functional as already stated:
    Full screen preview can't be used for the Program Monitor and/or the Camera Angles.
    The Camera Angles can't be positioned and resized independently on their own monitor.  Ditto for the Program Monitor.
    How could the PP team miss this?  Sorry to be brash, but it just baffles me how an entire team of  adults can commit such an obvious gaffe.    Perhaps they need to screen their ideas past real users, users like me that think outside the box and speak up when things don't work.  For sure Adobe already does this, but it clearly isn't working, either because they're consulting the wrong people and/or they're getting the right feedback but aren't listening to it.
    When I have to multicam edit on my laptop, I would LOVE to be able to display ONLY my camera angles in Full Screen.  This would make each camera angle a usable size on a 17" laptop, and leave out any and all distracting interface elements (something helpful on any size monitor).   After my initial edit is finished, I could then scale down my Multi-camera View and place it next to my Program Monitor above my Timeline to refine the edit.  The current design makes this logical approach impossible.
    I was REALLY hoping to see this fixed in 7.2.  The problems with the current design are so painfully obvious to me, every single time I do multicamera editing.  IMHO, it should also be obvious to anyone that trully understand video editing.
    You wrote "this appeals to some and not to others.", but for the life of me, I can't see how this change could possible appeal to anyone (other than a sadist that gets pleasure out of seeing an editor's workflow getting screwed).

  • Multi camera viewing

    I shot something with two cameras and now I am editing it. What is the best way to view both of these at the same time?

    If you have FCP5, use the multicamera tools. They are covered in the Manual.
    If you have FCP4.5, lay camera one on V1 and camera 2 on V2 and sync them up.
    Select the Motion tab on each track and scale each video image to 50%. Move the resulting images in the CANVAS until they are in a usable position.
    have fun.

  • FR: Full Screen Preview of Multi-Camera Angles

    The Program monitor can be viewed in Full Screen mode, as we all know, but when the Program monitor is displaying Multi-camera angles, it can only viewed in windowed mode.  Full Screen mode no longer works in this situation.  This is inconsistent, illogical and unproductive, thus my new FR for Adobe to allow the Program Monitor to be viewed in Full Screen mode, regardless of what it's displaying:
    (feel free to copy/paste and send as your own FR here: www.adobe.com/go/wish)

    Brief title for your desired feature: Full Screen Preview for Camera Angles
    How would you like the feature to work?
    The Program and Source Monitors can both be toggled in/out of  Full Screen mode with a single keyboard shortcut, a fantastic feature.  Why then can't the Program Monitor display in Full Screen when it's displaying Camera Angles, either with the Multi-Camera Preview Monitor on or off?  A window that can be viewed in Full Screen should always allow full screen preview, regardless of what it is displaying!
    Why is this feature important to you? 
    Consistency and a logical, productive UI is beneficial to all editors.  The fact that the Program Monitor window can be viewed in Full Screen in one instance but not another, is illogical, inconsistent, and a productivity hindrance that should be fixed.
    Ideally, Adobe could give us a separate, Full Screen capable window for displaying Camera Angles.  This way users could display their Camera Angles on one monitor, and their Program Monitor on a second monitor, all in Full Screen mode, without the visual polution of a windowed interface whenever that interface does not contribute to the editing task at hand!  Here is my thread regarding that request: Help Improve Premiere! FR: Separate, maximizable Multi-camera view.  However, should Adobe be unable or unwilling to provide us with the suggested interface that would provide maximum customizability/flexibility, at the very least having the option to view our Program Monitor in Full screen mode when viewing Camera Angles would be useful.

    The iSight is either 640x480 (older MBPs) or 1280x1024 (newer MBPs). Displaying it 'full screen' especially in an older MBP (which is what you have if you're posting in the correct forum) would result in a horribly pixelated image, not 'high resolution'. The apps that show the iSight feed are showing it at its native resolution, and that's a limitation of the hardware. If you need higher resolution, you can attach a higher resolution video camera (for example, my Panasonic DV camcorder connects via FireWire and can be used as a webcam).

  • Multi-cam vs. the Reference monitor

    I use multi-cam to cut two views together.
    Each view is in its own sequence, and those two sequences are the two tracks in the "multicam source"
    While viewing the "multicam destination" sequence,  I often use the Application-wide keyboard shortcut to "Toggle Multi-camera View".
    I like to keep the Reference Monitor up with some scopes on it while editing, to keep an eye on the relative color between the two cameras.
    Sometimes, the Reference Monitor pops back to "Composite" view, instead of my scopes.  It happens SOMETIMES when I use the hotkey to
    toggle Multi-camera view.
    Whether it changes the Reference Monitor view depends on which panel has focus when I hit the hot key!
    1) If the Program monitor has focus, and I hit the hot key to toggle Multi-Camera View, no problem, the Ref monitor stays on scopes as I want.
    2) If the Timeline panel has focus, then the silly Reference Monitor pops back to Composite View.
    FYI, I checked, and there is no specific Timeline panel hotkey using the same keystroke (I am using shift-6)
    Any idea if there is something to prevent the Ref Monitor from changing its settings from scopes to Composite like this?
    I doubt this is an intended behavior, probably just an odd edge case.
    I do see that the Program Monitor panel has an available keyboard shortcut called "Multi-Camera", but since I don't have the problem when focus is in the Program Monitor, I don't think this is relevant.  (I have it assigned to no keyboard shortcut right now).
    As a side note, It would be really nice if the program monitor could remember for each sequence whether it should be showing "Multi-Camera View" or not. 
    I often have to switch between looking at the multi-cam destination, and looking at other sequences... and it makes no sense that those other sequences should be viewed in Multi-cam mode, just because some other sequence was being viewed in multi-cam mode.   No?

    Right,
    So here was the problem, in case any of you people out there are going nuts with what appears to be a broken project.  
    In the timeline above the multicam layer, I was dropping in graphics. I was cutting and pasting them in.
    In order to do so I have to highlight the layer that I want to drop the graphics onto.
    As shown below.
    As soon as a layer gets a highlight other than the Multicam layer, the Program Monitor will no longer show multicam.
    Remove the highlighted layer as seen below.
    Hope this helps someone.
    Cheers..

  • Editing more than 4 clips using the multi-cam function. cs5.5

    How can I edit more than 4 clips at a time using the multi-cam function in 5.5?

    Ok, here's what I have so far...I managed to split up the video and edited both in the multi-camera view. Now I want to join those together so that I can use the multi-camera view to edit them together. Is there a way to do that? I tried nesting them both and laying them on the same timeline to use the multi-camera function, but now, I only get one view again. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Thanks for your help so far also. This is very interesting!

  • Multi-cam edit issues with multiple DSLR clips

    Hello,
    Working in CC. I have 2 camera angles that were filmed with 2 DSLRs, and mic'd audio that was recorded into a Zoom H4N. Audio recording never stopped, but due to the nature of DSLRs, the 2 cameras would stop recording every 12 +/- minutes. In this end, I have:
    Camera 1 - 16 clips
    Camera 2 - 17 clips
    Zoom H4N - 1 track
    When using the multi-cam source sequence option, it understandably thinks each clip is a new camera/angle. However, that's not very helpful for me when I have 17 angles (15 of which are blank) showing up in the program monitor. Any suggestions on how to better tackle this dilemma?
    Thank You.

    Thanks, Mark. Appreciate the quick response. After messing around, I combined your method with PluralEyes (seemed less tedious that syncing 17 clips manually). There might be a faster/easier way, but this is what I did, in case any one is curious (sounds more tedious than it actual is):
    1. Select cam 1 clip 1, cam 2 clip 1 and external audio in the Browser.
    2. Left-click, "create Multi-Camera Source Sequence." Two angles and audio are now in a multi-cam sequence. Rename as Multicam_Source_Sequence
    3. Create new sequence, called Sequence_01 and open in timeline.
    3. Excluding cam 1 clip 1 and cam 2 clip 1, drag all remaining clips of cam 1 to V1, all remaining cam 2 clips to V2, and single external audio to A3 into Sequence_01 timeline.
    4. Launch Sequence_01 into PluralEyes 3. Sync and Export.
    5. Open PluralEyes' "Sequence_01_synced" (not "Sequence_01_synced Replaced") in timeline.
    6. Find a good marker point toward the beginning of the audio where it has synced cam 1 clip 2 and cam 2 clip 2. Cut at that point.
    7. Copy all video tracks (exclude audio tracks).
    8. Find Multicam_Source_Sequence and open in timeline (un-nested, so that all tracks are revealed).
    9. Manually find the same audio marker point where you cut in Sequence_01_synced. Place playhead directly at cut point.
    10. Paste video clips. All tracks are now synced in a multi-cam sequence.
    From here, it's the usual steps for preparing multi-cam editing, like you mentioned.
    11. Create new sequence, called Multicam_Working_Sequence. Open in timeline.
    12. Make sure nesting button is turned on in timeline.
    13. Drag Multicam_Source_Sequence into Multicam_Working_Sequence.
    14. Right-click the nested sequence>Multi-Camera>Enable.
    15. Enable Multi-camera view in Program Monitor's panel menu.
    Voila! Took me awhile, but this works.And no 17 angles popping up in the program monitor. Let me know if you'd add (or remove) anything. Thanks, again!

  • Multi-cam clip display in event viewer

    I have been creating multi-cam clips for several projects.  I am noticing with some multi-cam clips, it is defaulting to an audio track as the monitoring angle.  When I double click on the clip and it appears in the timeline, I am able to change the monitoring angle to a video clip.  However, it never updates in the event browser.  Frequently before I edit, I will pore through clips and tag them.  How do you update monitoring angle so it is also displayed in the event browser?
    As you can see from this screen grab, the monitoring angle is set on a video clip but when I watch the clip in the event browser, there is no video

    I figured it out.  You can change what clip is showing the event browser by going under display and opening the angle viewer.  You can then pick which track to display.

  • Viewing multi-cam monitor for multi-cam sequences not on track 1

    Hi,
    I just found out that the multi-cam monitor in the Program Monitor goes blank if the multi-cam sequence is not on track 1. Is there a way to fix this? Thank you in advance.

    How do you toggle the track targeting so that you can see the multi-cam preview for two stacked multi-cam sequences? I'd like to cut between different takes and it'd be a pain to toggle every time. Final Cut Pro has no problem of doing this but it seems that Premiere is a little picky about track targeting. I attached an example of how the project would look like going through two takes of multi-cam sequences.

  • Need help with the new Multi-cam feature in CC

    Hi,
    I'm trying to use the Multi-cam feature in CC and have a few questions, so would be happy with help/advice for any of the issues below. The platform is Windows 7 Pro 64bit.
    The first question is what am I doing wrong? This question relates to the fact I'm trying to use Multi-cam and encountering a lot of frustrating glitches, as sometimes it seems to work and at others it doesn't.
    The video I'm trying to edit comes from a dance show so I created a sequence called Act 1. I then highlighted the six clips of Act 1 with Cam 01 at the top, as I wanted the audio from this clip and made a Multi-cam feature using the audio synch. I dragged it to the sequence, set the prog window to Multi-cam and was amazed at how well it had synchronised all clips, as I could see all six clips with great audio synch from Cam 01. So far so good and after thinking how brilliant it was, things went downhill from there
    I started by using ripple delete to drag to the start of Act one and then tried editing with Multi-cam. That's where I encountered the first problem, as sometimes it seemed to toggle between cams but didn't put edit points in and the selected cam had a yellow border and not a red one. At other times it inserted edit points when I changed cams and the selected cam has a red border. I can't work out what I'm doing, or not doing for this to happen. Can anyone help please?
    The second question is how do I cut audio and video at exactly the same point, as I want to edit out pauses in between the different elements of the actual dance show. When I use the razor tool in Multi-cam it only cuts the video. I tried highliting audio and video using shift, but to no effect. If it matters audio and video are shown as linked when I right click. I thought I might get it to work if I revealed all original clips within the MC nest using the technique shown in "Adobe Learn." This was Ctrl double click, but it resulted in the third problem.
    When I tried Ctrl double click I ended up with only Cam 02 showing in the V2 track and after some frustrating attempts at resolving this issue I decided to start all over again. I deleted the PP project and created a new one, importing everything again. I followed exactly the same procedure as I originally did to create a Multi-cam nest, but when I dragged it to the new sequence I saw Cam 02 in V2 of the sequence, which is the same as it was before I deleted the original project. Premiere Pro seems to have annoyingly remembered the actions that went wrong, so please can anyone tell me how to tell Premiere Pro not to do this?
    Thanks if anyone can help me on any of the issues.

    In Premiere Pro, multi-camera is accomplished by nesting a sequence.  There's a new, more automated way of doing this in CC.  View the steps here: http://blogs.adobe.com/premierepro/2013/04/a-quick-walkthrough-of-editing-a-multi-camera-s equence-with-clips-synchronized-by-audio.html
    HOWEVER, you must be warned that multi-cam in CC is currently broken.  A patch is in the works, but until it is released you should not use multi-cam in CC.

  • Multi Cam Not Working For Me

    I'm running Final Cut Pro X 10.1.1 on a new 2013 Mac Pro. I'm sure it's a user error, but here's the problem. When I create a multi cam clip, I'm not seeing two camera angles in my viewer. I am definitley turning "view angles" on. Here's what I'm seeing.

    I'm not sure what you mean by extended view but here is a look at each of the original clips inside inspector.
    I mean at the bottom of the Inspector, where you see "Basic", click and choose "Extended".
    The fact that you are not sure suggests to me that maybe the angle names are not set right after all.
    See the picture below. You need different angle names to tell FCP X that the clips must be in different angles.
    (Sometimes the software figures it out on its own, sometimes it doesn't - so I always tell it specifically :-))

  • Multi-Cam Tool only showing angles on pause...

    Hello,
    I know this has been discussed before, and I had posted on this too, however, I am still having problems, and had to finish my project 'manually', and could not use the multi-cam function, and am wondering if there is ANYTHING else I can do to rectify this. This is what I have done on my own:
    Trashed my Preferences, however, I noticed that only 'Final Cut Pro 5.0 Prefs' and 'Final Cut Pro Prof Cache' loaded in again when I re-launched Final Cut. 'Final Cut Obj Cache' and 'com.apple.FCP.plist' did not get included. Does this matter? They are still in my Trash, as I have not emptied it.
    I Collapsed/Uncollapsed my clips, rendered them since I was prompted to do so, set both the Viewer and the Canvas to 'Open', yet they both still play at the same time, in 'full' format. If I don't render, I can't play because of stuttering, then stopping.
    RT Menu is set to 'Unlimited RT'; 'Scrub High Quality'; 'Dyamic'; 'Dynamic'; 'Multiclip Playback' and 'Full Quality'.
    I read about putting in a 'null' effect, so as not to render, but then it stutters, then stops playing completely. Also, if I take the rendering out of Rendering Manager and continue w/out rendering, it's the same thing - not able to play until it's rendered.
    If there's anyone who can help with this, I have seriously tried every avenue I can think of, and I haven't been able to get anywhere with this - sorry this so long, but needed to say what I've done, thanks in advance!

    I tend to give my clients a rough cut with no filters applied. If they're happy with the cut, then we go through and add any necessary color correction, etc.
    If you don't think your client could handle seeing a rough cut with no filters, the give it to them with the filters. Once they decide on some changes, throw out your render files, make your changes, and render again. Or, like you said, it shows the angles on pause. Pause it on the shot the client doesn't like and pick a different one.
    As far as transitions, well of course it would only be able to show the selected angle. How would you suggest FCP creates a dissolve from one clip to four clips?
