Multiple videos playing at once.

Can iMovie makes videos with multiple different video playing together as one? Because I am doing this vocal thing while I need multiple records down together as they play. If iMovie doesn't do the job, what other programs can I try?

if you mean that 'Brady Bunch'-effect, you have two options
Quicktime Pro, which costs 30$, and is a little geeky..

  • Multiple videos playing on multiple projectors from a G4 15" titanium

    I want to play multiple DVD or Quicktime videos from my laptop or a MediaGate on multiple video projectors. I found an S-Video and a VGA distribution amplifier and I'm trying to decide which to go with. If I use the S-video I can connect the MediaGate directly into the s-video Distro Amp. In that I case I would need to access the MediaGate via the projector to 'play' the video. Anyone know if this can be done?
    The second scenario is to connect my computer directly into the VGA Distro Amp. I wouldn't need the MediaGate in this case. But would I be able to detect the projectors plugged into the VGA Distro Amp as displays by my Mac G4 15" titanium laptop??
    Any insights would be greatly appreciated!!
    Thanks!

    So are you trying to run several independent displays or just distrubute (mirror) a single display to all the projectors? If you are trying to run multiple different videos, I don't think that can be done. You might be able to run up to three using this, but I would do some homework and make sure it will work for what you have in mind.

  • Watching Multiple Video's at once

    is there a way to auto snap multiple quick time videos in my monitor for simultaneous viewing?  I know that Cinch can do it but I'm looking to snap 4-6 at one time

    is there a way to auto snap multiple quick time videos in my monitor for simultaneous viewing?
    What does "auto snap" mean here? Are you referring to the simultaneous playback of multiple videos, each in their own player, or multiple videos in a single player?
    I know that Cinch can do it but I'm looking to snap 4-6 at one time
    What is "Cinch?" What kind of files in terms of display dimensions and data rates per file are you talking about? How much CPU power does your system have? Are you referring to playback with or without dropped frames? If multiple clips in a single player, are you saving/flattening the combined data as part of the work flow?

  • 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.)

  • Select and scale multiple video tracks at once?

    Is there a way to select or "group" several video tracks in FCE and scale them as a single unit? Is there a key command to do this?
    For example, I am using a circle matt to vignette a video clip. I like the the two together just the way they are, (size relationship and relative positions), but I want to enlarge them as a single unit instead of independently.
    I have roughed-in multiple clips in my timeline with the same issue so it would be much faster if there is a way to group or select them and then scale them like you can in most graphic programs.
    Thanks,

    Hi Alchroma.
    I should have been clearer, but it's hard to describe. = )
    If I have video clips stacked under the playhead as tracks and they are all the same duration, and I hold the shift key to select several clips at once in the timeline -- can I scale them in the canvas as a unit (all at once) instead of grabbing the corner of each individual clip to enlarge it?
    Just wondering, like in Illustrator, if can I grab a single corner point, but scale several objects as a group if they are all selected at once. If I have to select each clip and the corresponding mask across the entire timeline, it will be hard to keep the attributes the same as well as time consuming.

  • View multiple video tracks at once?

    Hi Guys,
    How can I get the multi cam monitor to show me my 3 or 4 cameras at once? I know there is the method in which you sync clips and then do a nested sequence with enabled multi-cam operations, but can I just view the multiple clips at once on the multi monitor?
    The reason I want to do this, is so I can view all the cameras and do some syncing!
    Also, I have tons of stuff on my timeline which is all in different hours of the day trying to be synced. I can't really do fast syncing and then multi cam monitor.........
    Currently, when i do enable multi-monitor in premiere, I can switch from video track to video track, but cannot see all my tracks at once
    Thanks...
    MrD

    I've seen the multi cam tutorials, but I just wanna watch the videos for the sake of me syncing them and not because they are already synced...
    Huh?
    I tried ...but hopefully some else can under stand that and help you?

  • Multiple Keynotes play at once???

    Here is the situation. I support an art department. One of the profs wants to be able to play two keynotes at the same time on one computer through two projections systems at the same time. He wants to do compare/contrast of two images. Putting both images in one slide in one Keynote is not satisfactory for him because the images are not projected large enough. Is what he wants possible? In essence I would have three displays for the Mac as an extended desktop. What do I need to extend the desktop to three monitors total. (the projectors we have are VGA connectors) Will it take a second video card? Is there a video switch box that will do it?

    Here's another possibility: You could purchase a VGA splitter such as the Matrox Dualhead2Go http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/gxm/products/dh2go/digital/home.php
    Double the width of your Keynote presentation. (eg. if your current presentation is 800x600, customize it to 1600x600. Then you could put the images side by side on the same Keynote slide, but each would appear on its own projector.
    Not a perfect solution, but it might help.

  • Audio problem- Multiple songs playing at once

    Hello,
    I have a problem with playing a song. Everything seems fine
    until the song reaches about half way and then the same song starts
    playing ontop of the same song. First you hear the song, then you
    hear two songs, then three, and so on.
    What am I doing wrong? I can't figure it out. Any help would
    be great.
    Thanks
    Bernie

    I would say that if you want the song to loop that it may be
    better to use a Sound Object and a little code. so if you would be
    interested in this route - remove the sound from the timeline.
    first - set up the sound by selecting it in the library and
    right-click select 'properties...' - then in the properties panel
    check the 'export for ActionScript' box and give the sound an
    'Indentifier' name - this will allow you to use the sound file
    within the document and point to it in code by using the ID name.
    next - make a new layer called 'actions' on the main timeline
    if you don't have one already - select the first frame and enter
    the code below - replace the 'IDname.mp3' with the ID name of your
    sound file you've assigned.
    see the 'sound.start()' method below - the second parameter
    in it refers to the amount of 'loops' that it will run before
    stopping - you can set this any way you would like.
    more information on the Sound Object class is available

  • Multiple songs playing at once!

    If you get a song within 1-2 seconds of completion, and you press the left arrow key (to go back to the start), it starts playing the song over, as well as playing the next song in the playlist simultaneously!

  • Duplicate texts, and multiple songs playing at once

    This has happened a couple of times now. If I need to restart my phone for any reason, my phone resends old texts. I am not sure if my phone is defective or if there is maybe a setting I can change?
    And now a new problem. I was trying to listen to music through bluetooth, in my car and it started playing 2 songs at the same time.

  • How do I stop multiple videos from loading at the same time and playing while looking at any article on google news?

    Multiple videos load at once and start playing creating sound mess and sucking up ram. This is happening on Firefox on both Windows 8 and Windows 7 machines. This started about three weeks ago. I have run Avast, malwarebytes, hitman pro, and other malware killers. A new youtube setting appeared in settings, I have unticked everything. The videos do not appear to be youtube based.

    You could enable plugins click-to-play. Also, set the plugins to Ask to Activate rather than Always Activate. I also recommend the extension "Click to Play per-element".

  • What is good practice for playing multiple video's in a single swf?

    Hello,
    I have build in the past a video wall with video's inside. After building this i came across some problems.
    If you have too many video players loading at once it takes a lot of processing and the tweens in the
    page while loading the video's where not moving fluidly, but more in a stuttering way.
    After lot's of test i found a good working solution.  I imported the flv video's into flash en exported them on the timeline
    as a embedded swf.  Then i externally loaded these swf files and that performed much better.
    Is it even good practice to load multiple video instances at once? I used this time the LoaderMax of greensock but the video's
    only play after it's completely loaded. I would like to find a way to progressive play all video's at.
    Does someone has experience with this?
    Regards,
    Chris.

    How about an XML file which supplies the title for each movie and the location or source of the video to be played?  Simple version below.
    <?xml version="1.0" ?>
    - <playlist>
    <video src="Gfx/video/Alex1.f4v" title="John Deere 330" />
    <video src="Gfx/video/Benni1.f4v" title="Hitachi Z240F" />
    <video src="Gfx/video/Scotti1.f4v" title="Hitachi Z350F" />
    <video src="Gfx/video/Scotti2.f4v" title="Hitachi Z350F" />
    </playlist>

  • I would like to create a movie with with video from multiple windows playing simultaneously

    I would like to make a movie that shows multiple videos playing at the same time but in separate windows (kind of like the intro to the Brady Bunch?).  How can this be done?

    Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities
    I would suggest using Apple's Pages which allows support for imbedding videos from the device's camera roll. Pages also allows for sharing via email, Air Drop, and Messages.

  • Multiple videos on one page

    so i have created a website (which i haven't posted yet) in iweb- my question concerns video on iweb. on one page i have 5 videos that range from 20MB to 60MB, i would like these videos to download without a lot of wait time. curious what the wait time for this page would be? and also, would it be better to create a picture and then a hyperlink to each video? would that be faster? would preferably like to have multiple videos play on the page rather than hyperlinking to another page, but from what i've read, it sounds like it takes a while to download a page like that. also, i am not going to use mobileme, most likely godaddy.
    thank you.

    I just learned from toad yesterday...and I was where you were. I was afraid to try the code thing. But I kept pushing till I figured it out.
    I also publish with GoDaddy. They are very Mac friendly.
    My suggestion is that you upload your video file to Godaddy first. I used Cyberduck (free). When you get Cyberduck up and your file uploaded to the server, look (navigate) on the Cyberduck interface to the video file you have created the button for.
    Then, go to "Get Info" in the pulldown menu. You will see the URL that GoDaddy has assigned to the video (basically the Directory/Path).
    This is the info you want to put in the code part on iWeb where (in red) you replace the template text.
    To help you understand what Toad has published in red:
    1. the first red is where the URL path from the Cyberduck info goes.
    2. the second reds are the size of the Video you want to display. I find that 640x480 works very well.
    3. the last red is what your button will say: replace with "Click to Play"
    BIG HINT: Get Quicktime Pro. That interface will allow you to save your vide as a "Fast Start" video for uploading. I think this is Apple's equivalent of Flash.
    Once you get your stuff in place you will probably have to have a few phone sessions with Tech support at GDaddy. They can spot your mistakes and help get you up.
    Good Luck. This was all new to me and very intimidating - but 48 hours later I was able to have it all working.
    I even got it working on Network Solutions - but it was much more of a headache.
    For large video files, though, NetSol will let you put your videos on a Streaming Server for faster and more reliable service. Problem is that server only works with RealMedia and Windows Media Player...and who wants to convert all their QT files.

  • HELP!! Multiple Video Tracks

    I need to know if you are able to have multiple video tracks and once they are all lined up in the sequence you want, am I able to cut from one video track to another just like you would edit from scene to scene with 1 video track (like in Imovie)? I need to edit a dance recital with video from 3 cameras, so i need to line up the videos so they are all in sync as far as time is concerned, then switch from one video track to another without seeing the other tracks playing at the same time...in essence "mask" the other video tracks I don't want to see, but keeping all three video tracks in time and sync'd.
    If yes....then I'm buying Final Cut...if no...I need something else!
    Hope you understand what I'm asking!!!
    Thanks, DJ

    You can do it though FCP does it more efficiently.
    It is a bit fiddly in FCE though Piero's free PIP filter makes it a bit easier:-
