Newbie trying to combine multiple clips on one video file for iDVD

I just bought my Mac and and starting to make home videos. I have 20 .mov clips I imported from my HDD camcorder into the events section on Imovie 08. I could not find a way to combine these clips on Imovie 08 into one large clip. I imported these movies to iDVD in attempt a uninterupted movie. I have not found a way to do this. All I can do is add the the clips into a chapter screen, but then each clip stops after it end. How can I combine these .mob clips in either iMovie, iDVD, or any other software program that came with a normal Mac book?

I am not familiar with iMovie 08, but I am with the HD6 version. This is the one that you will be able to download using the link provided by SDMacuser.
You can use iMovie HD6 to combine your clips into a movie that will either play straight through or stop at the end of each clip if you wish. First, import your clips into iMovie to create your new movie project. Add audio, titles, effects, etc., and, if desired, chapter markers. Chapter markers will give you the option to advance to different parts of your movie, like a scene selection menu.
From iMovie Help, *Setting Chapter Markers*:
To set chapter markers:
Move the playhead to the point at which you want to start a new chapter.
IMPORTANT: You cannot add a chapter marker to the very beginning or end of your movie. (iMovie HD automatically adds an initial chapter marker at the beginning of a movie.) It's also a good idea not to add a chapter marker within a transition, or within one second of a transition or other chapter marker. If you do so, other applications may have trouble recognizing the chapter markers.
Click the Chapters button, and then click Add Marker.
Tip: To quickly add a chapter marker, you can also choose Markers > Add Chapter Marker.
Type a chapter title next to the thumbnail that appears in the Chapters pane.
Good luck.

How to combine XDCAM clips into one big file for import?

Hi, I'm not sure if this is a basic question or just not possible... I'm on location and have to rush edit. I've not worked with xdcam before. Usually I would import all of the media in low-res (one tape at a time), see what I want, then re-import that in high-res.
In xdcam, when I import, I import EVERY single shot as a separate file. I can set ins and outs and just import what I want, but this is laborious to open and close every shot to see if I want it, then mark ins and outs.
Isn't it somehow possible to import everything on the xcdcam disk as ONE single file as you would a "tape" so you can quickly screen it, see what you want, then go back to the individual clips on your xdcam disk and import those in high-res? This would be so much faster!
Many thanks for your help... am in a bind and in a rush!

Ok thanks... that seems to work. It won't actually work for the way we're editing, but in theory had we synced up our workflow from the start...
Re. something new... well I hear what you're saying but I have changed formats several times, used 4 different nlediting platforms so far and not complained. This is the only one that seems much harder especially when you're working with different editors in different countries under tight time pressure.
The brief user guide that I read (and our tutorial instructor at work) told us to import all the little clips and said nothing of combining them... I'm not sure how people could actually work that way and manage dozens of disks' worth of individual shots as files. It would take years to cut an item... and usually we have about 45 minutes to an hour.

How to combine multiple webservices into one WSDL file

Gurus,
I have 4 four webservices(ws1,ws2,ws3 & ws4) defined in XI. Normally in XI when we define webservice ,WSDL file will be generated for each interface. Now I have 4 related interfaces, so 4 WSDL files will generated. Suppose if I have 100 webservices then 100 WSDL files need to be generated & need to send to other party to consume our services, which is very tedious task & to track also. So is it possible to combine related webservices into one WSDL file? Your inputs will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Santhosh

Hi,
Instead of trying to combine the interfaces, you can try to define your interface mapping with 4 sender interfaces with in one interface mapping . I think this may give you the result you are expecting.
If you want entire content to be in one interface , then, define single interface which can accomadate, all message ocntent of all 4 interfaces.Means your sender message to contain the 4 datatypes internally.

Reyaz

Batch export of multiple clips from one video in Premiere CS4

Hello,
I'm really in a bind and hope you guys can help me out. I have about 30 hours of video in about 30 mpg files..1 hour in each video. I need to splice out small clips from each video..anywhere from 10 to 20 clips in each and send them to Media Encoder to store as video files I can then re-use. In CS3 I can do this manually one clip at a time ..set In point, Out point and then export. This however takes a very very long time....set the ins/outs, then export, then wait, then repeat..very tedious
In CS4 can i set multiple ins/outs for the entire video and then have premiere go to work and do a batch export? Or is there another way of doing this? I have about a week left to get this done and at a total of about 450 clips to export each 2-5 mins for encoding this will take forever...plase help!
Stan

It wont do exazctly what you want but.... But the batch encoding should save you some time since you can continue to work while it encodes/exports.
Do you need to make more than one output type? Like DV, WMV, FLV... for each one? If so, I suggest this workflow:
1. Open source file 1 in Source monitor set in and out, ctrl drag subclip to a folder in the project panel.
2. Repeat step 1 for any other subclips needed from source clip 1
3. When done with first source clip go into bin where you put your subclips click on them one at a time and do export/media to your lowest compressed need (like DV AVI for example); it will be added to AME queue
4. Repeat step 3 for all subclips, then click start queue.
5. While AME is exporting all the subclips for your first source clip, repeat steps 1-3 on source clip 2...
When you are all done; if you need to make multiple output types for each file; Do (IN AME) File>New>Watch Folder
Create a Watch folder for each output type you want. Then simply copy all the exported clips you want inot each of these folders and AME will process them all for you in batch.
It doesnt do exactly what you wished for; but should save you a few buckets of time.

Trying to combine multiple reports into one

We have several reports that are targeted to a certain group, for example, one version for the employee to pull their own sales info, one version for supervisors to pull their information for all subordinates, and one version for management and accounting
to pull information for all employees. I have a solution to combine the employee and supervisor reports by using the login ID of the user and showing them "my" and "my subordinates" information. But, I can't figure out a way
to combine the management "all" option. When an employee logs in, they will have a drop down to choose themself and one or more subordinates (if applicable). But they will only see the employee names that are under them. My CFO
needs a report to show all employees but he is not the supervisor. When he logs in, he needs to see a drop down with all employee names.
Does anyone have any ideas for combining all of these options into one report?
Milissa Hartwell

Hi Milissa,
Based on your description, you have three report: employee, supervisors, management and accounting. When an employee use their Login ID login the report, they will have permission to access their own information and their supervisors’ information. You have
meet issue how to configure CFO access permission.
In your case, we can use subreport to work around the issue. We can use three subreport to contain these three report. Then, pass the Login ID to filter these data in corresponding report. According to your description, you have a report which is contains
full information for all employees. Then, we can use Visibilities property to control this subreport’s visibility. For example: =IIF(Fields!LoginID.Value=”CFO”, False, True)
Alternatively, we can use drillthrough to open the corresponding report. The Following document is for your references.
Subreports: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd239314.aspx
Drillthrough Reports:

If you want to achieve the same effect use SQL query, I recommend you post a thread in the
Transact-SQL forum. It is appropriate and more experts will assist you.
If there are any misunderstanding, please feel free to let me know.

Trying to combine multiple PDF into one file

Batch add multiple watermarks to one video file?

I'm looking for a way i can batch add watermarks to a video?
But rather than add the same watermark to say, 50 videos... I want to add 50 watermarks, to the same video? So if i have 50 different watermarks and 1 video, i'll end up with 50 videos each with a unique watermark?
Is it possible to achieve this without doing it manually? in After Effects or any other Adobe software..
Thanks

Hi
The way that I would do this would be to bring all the water marks you want to use into Premiere.
Lets say they are just the watermark and nothing else (no background etc), import them all into Premiere and load each one onto the video. You would then need to go ahead and export or queue as you go, or you could make 50 timelines and queue them all and let it run out all the exports.
You should be able to re position and change opacity from premiere if you needed.
Hope this helps
I should imagine that's the quickest it will be!!

Hello Apple community... I am trying to combine multiple pdf's into one, using preview, but when I drag the additional pages they show up as separate documents.

I am trying to combine multiple pdf's into one, using preview, but when I drag the additional pages they show up as separate documents. When I drag the doc in a line would show up in the past, and if I went above th eline all was good. It doesn't have a line, and no matter what I try I am having no success.
Please help!

According to an Apple Support article, unless there are unforeseen issues
in file ownership or permissions, the combining of .PDFs should be simple.

There are a few variable and similar methods, some change with version

Change duration of multiple clips "as one" overall clip?

Here's my situation:
I have a song at 127 BPM. I have a music video (muted sound) at 125 BPM.
I've spent a long time slicing up clips from the video into different channels and muliple clips to form one timeline (but with many clips and channels lined up).
I now want to change the overall duration of the video clip to match the BPM of the song (which I should have done in the first place), but the video is, as previously stated, sliced up in mulitple clips in multiple channels. How can I change the duration of all clips at one time, where the end and start of the clips still line up to eachother?
This would've been incredibly easy if there were a un-nesting feature. Where I can nest multiple clips, change the duration, and un-nest the clips to slices clips with a changed overall duration. (Which is not possible. Yes, I can drag the clips out of the nested clip, but the clips will still have the original duration).
TL;DR: How can I change duration of multiple clips "as one" overall clip?

Never mind. I've found a alternate solution. I used a time stretch calculator at http://mp3.deepsound.net/eng/samples_calculs.php and time stretched all the clips to match the BPM of the song. Now I only need to snap all the clips, which can be done one by one, but I found this trick to snap all the clips at once: http://vimeo.com/27428526.
I'll just let this thread stay open so other with the same problem can find this

How do I turn off automatic bookmark creation when combining multiple PDFs into one?

When I combine multiple PDFs into one, I need Adobe to use the CUSTOM bookmarks I created in the original PDFs. I do NOT want the additional PDF name as a bookmark in this instance. Is there a way to turn this option OFF in Acrobat Professional? I have version 9.

You can not automatically turn off this action nor can you remove the 'file_name.pdf' heading, but you could add a button or menuitem to remove the 'file_name.pdf' from the bookamarks. Yes, it is one more step to perform when combining PDFs, but is you want until you have all of the PDFs combined you only need do it once.
Removing filename bookmarks created by Acrobat by Sean Stewart
From the above article:
"With the release of Acrobat 6 came the ability to create a composite (binder) document from multiple files, (i.e. File > Create PDF > From Multiple Files.) When this is done, Acrobat automatically inserts a new top level bookmark at the start of each new file. The bookmark title will correspond to the source filename of the source file. While this level of separation can be helpful, it is counterproductive when the user wants the bookmark tree in the merged document to be continuous.
"Here's a sample JavaScript to remove the top level bookmarks from the bookmark tree. This script will look for a ".pdf" extension to decide whether to remove the bookmark."
With some additional coding you can add menu item or toolbar button.

Combine multiple drawings into ONE SHEET

Hello, this is a question on Acrobat Pro, ver 8, using Windows XP. I guess I understand how to combine multiple files into a single PDF-file. However, this morning I happened to see the option mentioned in the subject line. When you go to "Combine files" > "Getting started with combined files" and select "CAD drawings" the description reads: "Combine multiple drawings into one sheet that's easy to navigate and print". How can this be done? I need to combine 8 ea CAD drawings (already converted to PDF) into ONE SHEET for printing without having the need taping 8 pieces of paper together. Arranging the drawing within the CAD application is not an option because the files were delivered by a 3rd party company and they only deliver PDFs

Hi Priya,
You can do this by merging the requets.
   1. goto Se10 and right click on the request and seelct merge requests.
   2. It will ask you from request and to request. Give the request names.
   3. After merging first request contents will be added to second request and
       first request will be deleted.
Like that you can merge 3 requests to one request.
Let me know if you want more info.
Thanks & Regards,
Siri.

How to combine video clips into one video clip using FCPX

I typed this into the search engine but could not come up with anything. How do you combine Video clips into one Video clip using FCPX? Thanks in advance.
Gar

The simple answer is to put the clips together in a project in the desired order and export (oops, the new word is share [YUK!]) a master file.
But maybe you should say a little more about the clips to determine whether the answer I've given is relevant to yor situation.

How to combine movie clips into one?

In one Aperture project I have 5 short (under 1 min) movie clips that I would like to combine into one "movie", and would like to know the quickest and easiest way to do this. I am not interested in any editing other than combining the clips into one. Thanks!

In Aperture the only way to combine movie clips is to create a basic slideshow, but you will get better results (stabilization, effects, etc) in iMovie or Quicktime 7, if you have it.
In Aperture:
Create a slideshow with the "Classic" theme: Select the two video clips in the Browser and use: File >New > Slideshow
Set the Default Slideshow settings (Transitions, Text, background) as you like them.
Arrange the clips in the Time Line in the order as you want them.
Press the "Export" button in the upper right corner to export a new video. Reimport it to Aperture.
