Multiple Video Clips

Does DVDSP4 support multiple video clips in a track? It allowed me to add a video clip after the first one but the second clip is black when I play it. This is for a dance recital where i want each section title screen to be separate from the video.

Hi:
Most probably you find the black playback (but audio is playing fine) in Simulator, right? Try pausing and starting again during Simulator.
It's a kind of bug in Simulator. If you make a trial build you'll find everything is OK.
Hope that helps !

Cannot select multiple video clips at a time

With the previous version, I could simply select all and import all my videos and pictures at once, in the order I copied them to my hard drive. Now, I have to "select entire clip" then, press letter E on every video clip, then, go back and add pictures. This is a huge downgrade from the previous version of IMovie.

hello ,thanks for jour mail ,but my English is very very bad sorry but
many thank for your feedback. Hav a nice Day

Can't select multiple video clips to import into iMovie

Hi, i can't select multiple video clips to import into iMovie, it only lets me import one video at a time. Apple please fix in next update or if anyone has a solution please post.

Obviously you can not select the video to import until after iMovie populates the list of videos that are available to be imported

Replace audio in multiple video clips at one time

Hello. I am new to the forum so I apologize if I break any of the rules!
I have a collection of tutorial videos, all edited but the audio had some balance issues. The files were not in Premiere Pro at the time. They are the final edited videos but then I was told the audio needed to be adjusted.
I have re-balanced the audio, saved the audio as wav files and now I need to replace the old audio (in the finished video file) with the new audio (the wav files I edited and saved). The timing is all the same. It's just a matter of replacing the current file.
Is this doable as a batch process? Is it doable in Premiere Pro or do I need to use Audition or some other Adobe software?
I hope this makes sense.
Thank you in advance!

Hi, is there any option how I can edit duration of multiple video clips (not stills) in iMovie 11, lets say if I want them 2 seconds long? Many thanks for any advice... Tom

How do I add multiple video clips at once to timeline

I would like to add several short video clips to the iMovie (ios) timeline all at once. Is there a way to accomplish this or do we have to select everything one clip at a time?
Thanks

or... you can command click to select all the clips you want to apply the effect to, then double click the effect in the Effects browser. (PS - you can't simply drag and drop an effect on multiple clip selections, the effect will only be applied to the clip you drop it on -- but double clicking the effect will apply it to all selected clips at once.)

Problem Synchronizing Multiple Video Clips to One Audio Clip

So i recently shot some video for a cool project I have coming up however I am having issues with Synchronizing the Audio and Videot together in Final Cut Pro X. I have used Final Cut Pro X since Day 1 that it came out and I thought I had a pretty good grasp on how Synchronizing Clips and MultiCam worked. I record my audio separately so in the past I would start recording on the TasCam Recorder (Wireless lav set up) I have, start recording on the DSLR and end up with both a video and audio clip. I would take these into Final Cut Pro and highlight both and use the "Synchronize Clips" command to pair them both into a single clip and then turn off the natural audio from the DSLR and begin my cuts. I thought I had done this with multiple clips before without issue but I seem to have a problem now.
Yesterday I shot 50 interviews. I pressed record on the Audio Recorder in the beggining and let it run for the full 2 hours, giving me one long audio file. Instead of wasting video space on my CF Card, I started and stopped recording for each of the 50 interviewees. My goal and what I thought would work was to highlight all 50 video clips and the 1 audio clip and say Synchronize Clips. This did not work. Upon looking at the Synchronize Clips in depth, i noticed that it synched all of my video stacked in the beggining in the first couple minutes. It didn't sync all of my clips, it merely just put them in the same timeline all up front.
I then tried to highlight all and do the same thing with MultiCam, however thought it matched a few more clips, it still had an issue of not synching the way I was hoping for.
I was wondering if anyone has had this issue in the past and what they might have done to fix it. Does FCPX have a limit on the number of clips it can Synchronize? Does anyone have any ideas for workflow for synchronizing all of these clips? In the future upcoming shoots should i resort back to starting and stopping audio recording the same way I start and stop video recording and then pairing individual interviews later?

So i just read this in the support for FCPX
Final Cut Pro analyzes the clips for sync points such as markers you’ve added, timecode, file creation date, and audio content. If no sync points can be found, the clips are synced at their respective starting points.
This is what I am aiming for , however not what I am getting. The piece about how the clips sync via timecode, markers, and creation date/time intrigue me though. There is no timecode cause my external audio is just a wav file, but maybe I can get it to sync better via markers? Has anyone else had this issue? Maybe my audio file being close to 2 hours is too long?

How to import multiple video clips individually from an SD Card to computer?

When i shoot a number of video clips and try to import them individually to my computer from an SD Card, they combine together as one long clip. How do i make them appear from the SD card in multiple clips? Is it a setting on the Macbook Pro (2012)? I know this does work on other Macbook Pro's.?????

How do I select multiple video clips in iMovie?

I want to select a lot of video clips from the Event Library in iMovie and move them into a Project for editing.
However as there are no up/down arrows on the scroll bar it is really difficult to highlight/select using the cmd button (as I then need to grab the scroll bar and move it down at the same time).
Is there an easy way to do this?
For instance, can I change the clips from visual to a list of file names that I could just then transfer to my project and then switch back to the visual view of each file/clip?
Thanks.

You can also select 'ranges' of clips as you describe using the Shift key. First select #1 clip, hold down Shift, then click on the #29 clip. This will get ALL the clips between #1 and #29 without clicking individual clips or selecting all and chippping away. Same goes for the second example. Click once on the #71 clip then hold down Shift, and click the #100 clip, and everything in between will also be selected. So there's two kinds of clicking:
1. Command/Click (for selecting or deselecting one at a time)
2. Shift/Click (for selecting ranges or deselecting ranges of clips all at one time)

Adding multiple video clips to a project?

This is my first use of imovie 11. I imported about 60 minutes of video from my camcorder. I now have about 100 video clips in the event library. I have no interest at all in editing any of the video clips. I simply want to take the hour of footage and make a dvd.
is there a way to move all the videos in the event library into the project window quickly? moving all 100 video clips individually seems very tedious, and I have many more hours of video to do.

As you have no intention of editing your Event try this;
For this you do not even need to create a Project. I tried this out as an experiment a couple of years ago with HDV footage and it worked.
Having got your footage into the Event you can now close iMovie.
From Finder->iMovie Events open up your required Event Folder. You should now see a folder called "iMovie Movie Cache" In this folder you should see a QuickTime Movie called "Cache- 25 .mov . This represents the footage that you have imported into your Event.
Now open up iDVD and drag this Cache-25.mov into iDVD to create your DVD.
I am not absolutely certain that you will see Cache-25.mov as this may depend on the source footage, (mine being HDV ) but you will be looking for Cache XX .mov or something very similar.
As this does not depend on creating a Project you save the time on Exporting /Share from the Project.
You may wish at a later stage to edit your events and of course for this you need to create the associated Projects where the editing is performed.This is not quite so daunting as you might think. The Ken Stone links that Klaus has included above are very good.(as iMovie 09 has many similarities to 11)
Hopefully this method will allow you to get your video onto DVD in a quicker way.

Play multiple video clips in slide show

I have 4 video clips (or I can do it in 1 movie) I want to have a menu screen with one of the themes. Then I want the viewer to be able to choose clip 1 and then play all the way through the other 3 clips in succession. Or I want them to be able to click clip 3 and then have it play clip 3 and then through to clip 4 and return back to the menu. So basically I would like to work like a standard movie DVD you purchase at a store. Is this possible?
I know you can put clips into slide shows (hence the title of this thread), but when I do that, it automatically starts to play through the clips. Is there a way to choose the slide show and then to give you the option in there to choose which clip your want, and then to play through the rest sequentially?

Here's a technique I like to use...
Create a shape -- It will be black and white where the white is what you want to show video. In the control tab of the shape you can change size/softness/location/aspect... etc.
Lay the video on the track above - Change the VIDEO track's composite mode to TravelMatte-Luma.
Use the video's motion tab viewer and image/wireframe in the canvas to center up the image you want.
Add another shape above that and then video track and change to TravelMatte-Luma etc.
The plus for this way is that you can change the video without have to reset all the croping and trying to match it all.

Multiple video clips in STP2?

Hi,
Is it possible to import more than one video clip into a project? I don't seem to be able to...
Steve

You could import your video clips into Final Cut Pro and export them to STP as one long clip, but STP is designed to work with one video at a time.

Sync multiple video clips with one audio track

I'm an FCPX noob, trying to sync some clips. I recorded a 1.5 hour concert with a DSLR along with an audio track using a separate digital recorder. I have seven video clips, all in sequence (stopping and restarting the camera because of clip length limitations) and one long audio track in WAV format. The audio track is longer than the combined video clips, and there are some short dead spaces in between the video clips when I turned off/on. Now I'm trying to sync them but when I do, the video clips get stacked together with lots of overlap.
I made a test with 3 minute video and audio clips and had no problem. But when I try to do the whole event, I get a jumbled mess.
I could cut the audio into pieces and sync each piece with its corresponding video, but that seems to defeat the sync process, as well as being a lot of work. And, wouldn't I end up with lots of overlap anyway, since my audio clips would have to be longer than my video clips?
Am I missing an easier way to do this, or a way to arrange things better? I can't imagine the problems with several cameras and several audio tracks; my project is actually pretty simple, since it is very linear.
Any suggestions? Thanks--

Sorry to take so long getting back to you. Thank you for this advice, but I'm not sure I'm doing it correctly. Is there a way to set the angle on all of the clips at the same time?
Yes. Select all the clips you want in the browser, and then in the inspector fill in the camera angle with the value you want. This can be just about anything, it does not have to be a number. I prefer to name it something meaningful, like "wide" or something.

Matching the Volume Levels of Multiple Video Clips

I have a folder with about 30 different video files that I downloaded, and because they came from different sources the volume will vary. The problem I run into is this, suppose I load all the files into a playlist (VLC) and choose shuffle. If I finish a video with softer volume and then go to a clip that is much louder, well, I basically have to grab my remote to adjust the volume before I wake the neighbors.
Is there a way in iMove that I could match the volume of all these video files so they are all the same? Is this called Normalization?
I appreciate any help in advance!
-Hunter

Thanks! I have found a guide that shows how to normalize volume across multiple clips: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/iMovie08_GettingStarted.pdf

How do i create linked pages with multiple video clips on each of them?

I took a bunch of small videos with my digital camera, and now want to make a dvd that has a main menu with 7 choices, and then each one of those will take you to pages with each clip as a motion button (6 to a page). So if i click on "Dublin" on the main menu, it takes me to Dublin #1 which has clips 1 - 6, i can then click on an arrow to go to a second page with clips 7 - 12, etc. I can return to the main menu and click on "Belfast" which takes me to the first page of 6 clips, then a second page with 6 more, etc.
The problem I am having is linking two or more Chapter pages together. Thanks for your help.
Eric

Welcome to the forums, Eric.
iDVD has a few limitations, but you can do much of what you want.
Limitations: Only 6 selections per menu page. And the Forward/Backward selection buttons advance only one menu at a time.
Basic solution: Use the folder button to create a link to a submenu; move to that submenu and drag your movies onto that menu page. Repeat for more submenus.
Alternative approach: Use iMovie to join all the Dublin videos, with chapter markers to designate each segment. Import the movie with chapter markers into iDVD and they automatically create the Dublin submenus. And you can watch all the Dublin videos in a row, or use the menus to navigate to the desired video. After you watch the last segment, you'll automatically return to the main menu.
