Multi screen project, is there a way to play each track in it's own window?

Hello,
I'm working on a 4 screen video installation... (with 4 seperate monitors arranged around a room)... While I'm doing the editing, I'd love to be able to simulate the 4 screens by having 4 viewer windows open across my desktop, above the timeline... (similiar to the dual screen multiple edits arrangement, but each screen follows a different video layer [V1 goes to the far right window, V2 to the middle right window, V3 to the middle left, V4 to the far left])
We'd rather not have to resize each clip in a single composition, it would be great if it would just assign to different viewer windows based on the track...
This is for the editing process, only, for the installation it will be running off for seperate dvd players...

Hi Josh
We have done some jobs for multi-screen in AfterEffects and for checking the sequences side to side you can do the same in FCP.
Create 4 sequences, one for each screen. (Seq 1-4).
Create a fifth sequence (seq 5) four times wide (for PAL 4x720=2880).
From the Browser window, drag Seq 1 in to Seq 5 V1
From the Browser window, drag Seq 2 in to Seq 5 V2
From the Browser window, drag Seq 3 in to Seq 5 V3
From the Browser window, drag Seq 4 in to Seq 5 V4
Alt-double click Seq 1 on V1 and apply Basic Motion > Center H. -1080
Alt-double click Seq 2 on V2 and apply Basic Motion > Center H. -360
Alt-double click Seq 3 on V3 and apply Basic Motion > Center H. 360
Alt-double click Seq 3 on V3 and apply Basic Motion > Center H. 1080
Now you can check on Seq 5 the relationship between each edit on Seq. 1-4 (you may have to render for playback).

  • Key Press to Play Video, in multi-screen project

    I have a timeline with multiple videos in it, all loaded as external videos with playback controls as the audio is important (all are 55 seconds long and high quality audio is vital). First of all I want a specific key pressed to play one of the videos. I've been playing around with event handlers, key press event, but nothing has worked.
    This is a multi screen project I'm working on so is there any way to have two seperate windows of video 1080x1920 (that would play on two seperate screens to interact with eachother) or would I have to create a stage twice the width. I need two video clips to play simultaniously once a key is pressed.
    I am a real beginner to flash so I really have no idea whether this is possible.
    I'm doing this on Flash CS6 on a Mac in IOS 10.9.2
    Thanks!

    i'm not sure what you're trying to do with multiple screens but that should have no impact on using key listeners to control your timeline:
    stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,f):
    function f(e:KeyboardEvent):void{
    trace(e.keyCode);

  • HT201335 Hi.  I have an apple tv and am able to mirror the image on my ipad to my tv, however it doesn't fill the full screen.  Is there a way to get a full image on my 32" Tv.  Thanks a lot for your help

    HI.I have an apple TV and am able to mirror the image on my ipad onto the screen.  However, it doesn't fill the full 32" screen.  Is there some way to project a bigger image onto the Tv.  Thanks for your help

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Mirroring won't fill the TV screen. The iPad has an aspect ratio of 4:3 and the iPhone 4S or prior an aspect ratio of 3:2, neither of these will fit exactly into a TV screen which as an aspect ratio of 16:9. The Apple TV will not zoom the mirrored image, because it may well cut off information which is situated at the top or bottom of the screen.
    You may wish to try each of the settings in ‘Settings > Audio & Video > Adjust for AirPlay overscan’ for the best setting that suits you.

  • Is there a way to play an mp4 file at the beginning of a published project only when the project is accessed from a specific site?

    Is there a way to play an mp4 file at the beginning of a published project only when the project is accessed from a specific site?
    A little background info. I use Captivate 7 and currently have over 100 projects that I maintain on a quarterly basis. I publish using the SWF format and upload the swf/htm files to a server where they are then accessed from a few locations (within our online documentation, in our software product, on two different websites). Many of the projects are linked so some will be viewed as a series and others viewed as a standalone video. Each video uses the same template and includes an intro and end slide. Now my organization wants to implement a new intro to all videos (those I publish and those from several groups across the organization). My current intros provide overview material for the specific video so the new intro, which is an animation with audio in mp4 format, would need to be placed at the start of each project. The issue is, the intro adds 9 seconds to every video and in many cases doesn’t add any value (say, if a user accesses the video from within our product or views the videos as a series). I’ve talked it over with my boss and we want to try to add the intro only to videos accessed from site X, not any other location. So now to my question. Is there a way to play an external mp4 file (intro) only when the published project is accessed from a specific site, therefore eliminating the need to update each project? Maybe there's a way to add a parameter or variable to the URL or the html code?
    Thanks in advance for your suggestions. Please let me know if you need additional information.

    AimeeLove,
    I have a solution for you.  You may have to modify the code a little bit based on how long the timeline animation is for your clock.  I based mine on 3 seconds to complete a minute hand sweep around the clock.
    Milliseconds for each point on the clock:
    12 = 0
    1 = 250
    2 = 500
    3 = 750
    4 = 1000
    5 = 1250
    6 = 1500
    7 = 1750
    8 = 2000
    9 = 2250
    10 = 2500
    11 = 2750
    In the mouseover section for 12 o' clock, put this code...
    myVar = setInterval(function(){
         var pos = sym.getPosition();
         if (pos > 0 && pos < 50){
              sym.stop(0);
              clearInterval(myVar);
    },10);
    When you point to the time, the setInterval method loops every 100th of a second and checks the current position of the timeline.  When the timeline reaches the range between 0 and 50 milliseconds (almost impossible to hit 1 specific point), the timeline will stop at 0.  Also, the clearInterval will be fired to stop the loop.
    In the mouseout section, put this...
    sym.play();
    clearInterval(myVar);
    It start the clock again, and it also clears the loop in case you mouseout before you reach the range.
    Make sure that myVar is a global variable so you can clear it from the mouseout section.
    Repeat this for each point on the clock.  To avoid potential conflicts, you may want to use my12, my1, my2, etc. instead of myVar.  I put the milliseconds at the top that you would use as the beginning of the range.  50 milliseconds should be enough to catch it.  So, for 5 o' clock, you would make your range between 1250 and 1300.
    Let me know if you have any questions.  Thanks!
    Fred

    my iphone screen is broken and i need to access it through itunes but my phone is locked. it cannot be unlocked on the screen but is there any way i can do it on itunes so i can access it?

    Depends, if you've synced with this iTunes, while that passcode was enabled, you won't be prompted to enter the passcode when connecting your phone. If you have not synced, while that passcode was enabled, you will. So, if you fall in the later, there is no way to do what you want.

    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

    The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox.

  • Is there a way to make the multitrack behave as the edit window?

    I have been using the 30 day trial and am on my last day. I find Audition great except for 2 things(both of which I probably just don't know how to use).
    1.Is there a way to make a track shrink or enlarge with the mouse scroll as in edit. I find it really annoying when all it does in the multitrack is scroll up and down between the tracks.
    2.I can't seem to click on a track in the multi track and get it to play from there. I have to drag the play marker to that point.
    I'm sure these problems can be rectified and it's just because I haven't read the full spec.
    Many Thanks

    >I find Audition great
    Yes it is!
    >1.Is there a way to make a track shrink or enlarge with the mouse scroll as in edit. I find it really annoying when all it does in the multitrack is scroll up and down between the tracks.
    You are scrolling in the window you need to place your mouse over the vertical bar on the far right of the screen and then scroll

    Right mouse click on transport control (play button) and select play from cursor to end of file.

  • Is there a way to import several tracks at once from my Boss BR8 so that they show up as separate tracks in GarageBand?

    Is there a way to import several tracks at once from my Boss BR8 so that they show up as separate tracks in GarageBand?

    I had to google your device - looks like it's a vintage multi-track recorder that records to Zip disks. So I guess there's no digital USB or Firewire multichannel output and no way to transfer your tracks digitally - or is there? If not, your only option is to record the device's audio track by track into GB.
