Possible to Start/Stop Mark Clips In Timeline?

Hello,
I'm using FCP5 on a Dual 2.7 G5 running 10.4.2
I captured a couple of DV tapes, added a Time Code Generator, and gave the footage to a client on DVD so that they could create a list of shots to not include in the final edit.
I took this list and went through making cuts at the client's listed start and stop Time Codes. The problem I am having is some of the clips left on the timeline have camera start/stop points. I would like to mark these using "DV Start/Stop Detect" so that I could create new edit points between each start/stop of the camera.
I can double click each clip in the timeline... opening it in the viewer... and then select "Mark>DV Start/Stop Detect" and this does exactly what I want. It is very tedious though. Is there anyway to automate this process for each clip in the timeline. I hope I explained what I am trying to do clearly. If not please ask questions and I can fill in details.
Thank You,
Matt

Thanks for the suggestion. Yes, it would have been alot smarter to run the Start/Stop Detection as my first step after capturing. I'm new to FCP, and my old NLE (Premiere Pro 1.5) would break the Camera Start/Stops into separate .avi files on the hard drive and in the project window / browser. I just didn't think about it this time... but definitely will next time.
What I ended up doing is using the track forward selection tool to select all the clips in the timeline that I wanted to mark. I created a new bin in the browser and put all of my clips in the timeline in this new bin (creating subclips?)
Then I selected all of these clips in the browser and ran the Start/Stop Detect tool. After it finished I sorted all the newly marked clips in my browser by their in points. I then selected all of my clips, dragging them back into the timeline. I put them on a new track so that I could make sure everything lined up correctly. It did. It ended up being a pretty simple fix. Just had to think about it a bit over dinner.
Thank You,
Matt

  • Accidently moved dv start/stop marker

    hello people...so I have a clip in the editor which I used the dv start/stop tool on. I want to go through the clip and use the media manager to take out any unwanted footage. here's the issue. the clip shows all the red markings for when I stopped recording and started. If I accidently moved any of those...is that a problem as far as timecode and capturing later? thanks!

    I have a sequence with footage from 3 different clips in it. I decided not to use one of the clips....so I thought when I used the media manager, it would erase the one clip I am not using in the sequence....but for some reason, the manager shows me that after I selected the timeline....the original file is the exact same size as the modified.....why is this?

  • Start/Stop Weblogic Admin Server

    Hello,
    I have installed Forms 11g in my home Pc, so is it possible to Start/Stop Weblogic Admin Server and the Dos window that appears, not to ask me about username and password?

    if yes, also the same in WLS_FORMS?
    Thank you.

    Starting an Administration Server with a Startup Script
    An Administration Server is a WebLogic Server instance that maintains configuration data for a domain. In a development environment, it is usually sufficient to start an Administration Server and deploy your applications directly onto the Administration Server. In a production environment, you create Managed Servers to run applications. For more information about Administration Servers and Managed Servers, see "Understanding WebLogic Server Domains" in Understanding Domain Configuration for Oracle WebLogic Server.
    You can start an Administration Server with a default startup script or create your own. To start an Administration Server with the WebLogic Server-included startup script:
    If you have not already done so, use the Configuration Wizard or WebLogic Scripting Tool (WLST) to create a domain.
    See Creating Domains Using the Configuration Wizard or "Creating Domains Using WLST Offline" in Oracle WebLogic Scripting Tool.
    Open a shell (command prompt) on the computer on which you created the domain.
    Change to the directory in which you located the domain.
    By default, this directory is MW_HOME\user_projects\domains\DOMAIN_NAME, where DOMAIN_NAME is the root directory of the domain. (The name of this directory is the name of the domain.)
    Run one of the following scripts:
    bin/startWebLogic.cmd (Windows)
    bin\startWebLogic.sh (UNIX and Windows. On Windows, this script supports the MKS and Cygnus BASH UNIX shell emulators.)
    Note:
    If you use a Configuration Wizard template that is provided by WebLogic Server, your domain directory includes a start script named startWebLogic. If you use a domain template from another source, the wizard might not create a start script, or it might create a script with a different name. The template designer determines whether the wizard creates a start script and the name of the script.
    The startWebLogic script does the following:
    Sets environment variables by invoking DOMAIN_NAME\bin\setDomainEnv.cmd (setDomainEnv.sh on UNIX), where DOMAIN_NAME is the directory in which you located the domain; for example, WL_HOME\user_projects\domains\DOMAIN_NAME, and where WL_HOME is the location in which you installed WebLogic Server.
    Invokes the java weblogic.Server command, which starts a JVM that is configured to run a WebLogic Server instance.
    When the server successfully completes its startup process, it writes the following message to standard out (which, by default, is the command window):
    <Notice> <WebLogicServer> <BEA-000360> <Server started in RUNNING mode>
    Starting an Administration Server from the Windows Start Menu
    When you create an Administration Server on a Windows computer, the Configuration Wizard creates a shortcut on the Start Menu for starting the server (User Projects > DOMAIN_NAME > Start Admin Server for WebLogic Server Domain).
    The command that the Configuration Wizard adds to the Start menu opens a command window and calls the startup script that is described in Starting an Administration Server with a Startup Script. When the server has successfully completed its startup process, it writes the following message to standard out (which, by default, is the command window):
    <Notice> <WebLogicServer> <BEA-000360> <Server started in RUNNING mode>

  • 24pA - Captured timecode and DV Start/Stop

    Hello - I've got what I hope will be an easy one - though I haven't found the answers lurking around here. I'm capturing footage shot on my DVX-100A in 24p Advanced mode. I'm capturing it from my DSR-11 deck using the Advanced Pulldown Removal in FCP 5.0.3 on my Dual 1G G4 tower running OS 10.4.3. My tapes should all be Non-Dropframe I believe.
    I'm having an issue with DV Start/Stop Detect. It's putting markers where there is no start/stop between clips, and NOT finding any of the start/stop locations on the tape at all. This led me to examine my timecode more closely. I found that clips have timecode that increments like this (in the frames category):
    01, 02, 04, 05, 06, 07, 09, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 19, 20, 21, 22, 24, 25, 26, 27, 29, 00
    It plays fine in sequences set to 23.98, and even displays fine on an NTSC television I've hooked up to my DSR-11. This from the clip itself in the viewer, or from the canvas in the sequence.
    Should my timecode be incrementing that way so that it can re-reference the 29.97 timecode on my original tapes, or do I have a problem? Does anybody know why my Start/Stop Detect feature won't work? Incidentally, it works just fine for 24p normal footage captured at 29.97.
    Thanks for your help.
    Zac

    Zebulun -
    I did what you suggested. I was able to capture a few clips just fine at 29.97. I also was able to use the dv start/stop detect feature with success.
    However, using the "remove advanced pulldown" from the tools menu yielded the same odd results. It appeared to work just fine, and the info window for the clip says that the frame rate is 23.98 (with lower field dominance), but my time code still reads as it did from the above posting. Up to 29 frames, skipping frames to make it count only 24 times.
    It still seems to play fine. Any thoughts on why my timecode is doing this?

    I want to start with audio on a timeline and add photos. Why is this not possible in the new confusing version of iMovie?
    Yrs,
    Unspeakably Frustrated

    Yes, you can do this. Drag the music track to the background and start adding your pictures. A great way to do this is to use beat markers so your photos will change on the beat.
    A really fast way to do this is to line up your photos in an iPhoto album in the order you want them. You can drag the whole album into iMovie at once.
    Here is a tutorial on the beat marker feature.
    Here is a sample of a slideshow made by dragging in the music first, adding beat markers, and then adding photos.

  • Show clip marker names in Timeline

    Not sure if this is possible but, does anyone know a way of displaying clip marker names in the timeline? Even if I could get them to show up in the canvas like timeline markers do, that would be great, but actually right next to the marker on the timeline would be ideal.

    Did I get you right?
    I think we're still on different wavelengths. Using this screenshot as a reference:
    http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/19589/FCP%20Markers.png
    The playhead is currently parked on Marker 4, which happens to be a Timeline marker (Aqua). Looking in the Canvas, there are 2 other markers in this sequence, one before marker 4, and one more after. There is also one marker on this screen, it's embedded in the clip (Red).
    Noting that there are no clips selected in the timeline, at this point, if I were to press Option M, the playhead would jump to the previous timeline marker (Aqua).
    However, if I were to select the "353 SA-Tag" clip, with the playhead in its current location, then press Option M, then the playhead would jump to the clip marker (Red). But even then, it's name and information wouldn't be displayed in the Canvas.
    You've got me thinking too hard tonight!!

  • How can I create individual clips after doing DV start/stop locate?

    I know how to take a clip and have FCE mark the DV start/stop points, but is there a way to have FCE then automatically make individual clips based on the DV in/out points?

    Yes, that's actually what is 'behind the scene' in each subclip. This is actually a very powerful thing, as you will discover as you gain experience editing.
    Yes, they act as if they are completely independent of each other, you can apply further edits, filters, effects etc. to each subclip individually.
    Switching from iMovie to FCE takes some adjustment, that's for sure. But FCE is much much more capable than iMovie.
    I encourage you to get a copy of Tom Wolsky's excellent book - Final Cut Express 2 Editing Workshop. It's the best thing available to get you started with FCE ... and it includes a DVD where he shows you the differences between using iMovie and FCE. Tom has also recently produced an FCE training DVD, too, Final Cut Express HD Made Easy, and he is an active participant in this forum.

    How come when I stop and start an audio clip when before its done, that when I play it it only plays part of the file?

    I'm not sure if I got you right, but do you mean that it's like pausing...
    I have never played an audio clip with java, but if this is the case, maybe you have to rewind the clip.

  • Unable to play preview clip on timeline Premiere Elements 10

    All of a sudden, I'm unable to preview clips, even in unfinished projects that used to work. I'm running Premiere Elements 10, Windows 8.1, Flash updated etc. These clips are activated, not rendered (red line above) but doesn't show. However, if I play the clip, I can hear the sound. Sometimes the program crashes, and I have to start all over again.
    Update: Now, when I click on the clip on the timeline, preview window shows one frame, while the marker continues to "play" the clip(without showing anything but the first frame as a still picture. When hitting pause again, preview window shows a still where the clip was stopped...This happens on some of the clips on the timeline. Some are just pure black

    Pls help

    Yes, that could be it!
    I do have a NVIDA graphics card! And it's updated with the latest drivers...
    Now, I'll have to find out how to do a roll back...I'll read the thread you suggested and hope for the best!
    Thanks for the answer!
    Additional info:
    Some of the clips that wont play in the preview or full screen window, shows a still picture when setting thetimeline to it AND THE clicking on the preview window. A still shows up, but nothing happens when a hit play. Some of the clips are from my GoPro Hero3 Black, but they seem to pay fine as long as I havn't used zoom on them. On many GoPro clips I've used zoom to minimize the "fisheye" effect, and then it wont play.

    Any chance you could be part of a growing crowd of Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA video card users who have run into the NVIDIA video card driver issue. For the now of this issue, the answer seems to be to roll back the driver version rather than assure that you have the latest version of it.
    Please check out the following thread here where I have sought to keep track of these happenings.

  • DV Start/Stop detect with iMovie

    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?forumID=936&threadID=557928
    Because this thread was marked solved I can't add to it.
    I think the problem is the rendering as you surmised. There is no way to fix this problem because of the way iMovie works. It captures without timecode so every clip begins at zero. Once you've rendered the material and moved it to the browser the render file looks to the TC on the clip to sync up. Once it's broken up every subclip starts with zero because it has no inherent timecode so the render file associated with zero TC links to every subclip.

    Hi Tom,
    thanks for addressing that topic again (I had just marked it "solved" because it was open by a long time...).
    I see what you mean: since there is no TC in the .dv from iMovie there is no way to sync the audio render file and the subclips. Another interpretation is that DV Start/Stop Detect applies only to the original .dv media, not to audio (item level) render file created in the timeline, so FCE cannot associate different sections of the audio render file to the corresponding subclips.
    But now that I read it again... I think we are just saying the same thing!
    And you are suggesting a feedback would be useless.
    Thanks anyway

  • Sending FCP5 'DV Start/stop detected' subclips to shake...

    Hi all, I wonder if any of you Shake users could help with a problem I'm experiencing....
    I tend to import my DV footage into FCP5 by using the 'Capture Now' option to capture the entire tape from the cam, then use the 'Detect DV Start/Stop' function to mark the master clip, then make subclips from that. A fairly standard process.
    Now, my problem is this:
    When I send clips from the timeline to Shake, everything seems to work as it should, with Shake starting a script using my clips....only it's not the 'subclips' I sent that appear in Shake, it's always the beginning of the Master Clip that the subclips were derived from.....although Shake IS recognising the relevent timings from the subclips.
    Example: If I send two subclips to Shake, one 60 frames long and one 120 frames long, Shake will open two 'file-in' nodes correctly but one will contain 60 frames from the START of the Master Clip and the other will contain 120 frames from the START of the Master Clip and NOT the frames of the subclips.
    Bizarrely though, once the 'file-out' node has been rendered and linked back to FCP5, the clip Shake has created in the timeline DOES contain the correct frames from the subclips.
    I've tried converting the subclips to master clips in FCP5 but this makes no difference, the same thing still happens.
    Trying to analyse what's happening, I suspect the problem is with Shake not being able to recognise the 'markers' FCP5 is using to identify it's own subclips, but I'm not sure if there's a way to get round this. My own solution has been to export the clips out to the desktop, then import them manually into Shake. It works, but obviously adds extra processes to the workflow.
    I hope this explanation makes sense to you all.
    Regards.
    Steve.

  • Print to Video Start Stop recording

    Hello
    Ok is their any way to have FCP mark a Start Stop after each clip when recording a timeline with many clips. So that when recaptured it imports each clip in the Timeline as an individual clip.
    Perhaps their is another software for this.
    I have been reading the Manual back and fourth cant find out how to add start stop points. I have tried markers transitions blank space. Nothing wants to work.

    Thank you for your help.
    Your suggestion got me to come up with a few other things which led me to what I am going to do.
    I still am going to try the Adobe thing I'll let you know how that goes.
    I will have a directory with markers one for each tape on a USB stick.
    A black slug around 2 frames in between each clip and enough black to start off and to end with as to keep every frame.
    One thing though.
    The reason I was trying to do start and stop was in the event someone else needed to record the Tape but I will probable be the only one to do such.

  • Marking clips used in your edit?

    How do you mark clips that you've used in your sequence?
    If you have many clips in your browser/media library and you want to clearly see which clips were already used, without looking through them and comparing?
    Even iMovie '11 had that function - sections of clips that were used had an orange line through them. Is it possible to do in FCPX? Other then making them your favorites?

    the best method I've found:
    after you move a clip into the timeline, hit delete with the clip selected in the event browser.  This doesn't delete the clip, it simply assigns a keyword of "rejected".  Then, in the top left of the event browser, you can change the pull down menu to "hide rejected"
    I do hope they just simply add another bar, but this is fast and works great in the meantime.

    Having Start/Stop detect to break up DV NTSC on import?
    is this posible it works when importing my HDV but when i down convert out of camera to DV anamorfic it makes one file.

    This might be what you want. After import of clip, select the clip in the browser go to Mark>Dv start/stop detect.
    FCP will make your selected clip into a folder and inside will be the scene breaks.
