Saving a Transition with a video clip...

I am using an Edge Wipe transition, which I painstakingly synchronized with a clip of a car driving by. I would like to be able to re-apply the wipe and the car driving by several times throughout my sequence. Is there a way to do this in one move? ie. make a Default Transition that includes a video clip?
thanks

The transition can't include the clip. The only thing you can save is the transition as a favorite or as the default and then copy and paste (or other ways) the clip and then add the transition. There are many different two steps ways of doing this, but no one step way, unless you also take the shot afterward as well, the shot to which the car is being wiped from.
All in all, it's probably taken more time for you to post the message and get the replies than it would be to actually do it.

  • Need help with non-video clip transitions on the FCP timeline...

    Hi all, I am struggling with this problem with the FCP timeline: I have a mix of things; .motn includes, .psd includes, etc. and I want to put a transition between them and a normal video clip, BUT, as u can guess, it does not work well. I guess because FCP can't see the frames inside the Motion file, it won't let u do a cross fade or whatever with any amount of time applied to it. So what to do?
    I started to modify the motion files but realized this would not work, as I often use bits of one motion animation in various places starting and ending at different timecodes. So i need to be able to place a transition at the beg/end of motion clip on the fcp timeline. I started doing this:
    1) place a slug above the track of a joining of motion/video clip
    2) place the transitions on both ends of the slug.
    Is this the way to go? I have dozens of these that I need to fix asap, so all advice is appreciated!

    Hi Cooco,
    there are several ways to find out whether it is a [*matter of handles*|http://www.larryjordan.biz/articles/lj_handles.html]
    One is to select the clip>hit the S key (slip tool) clickandhold it . A brown line drawing a rectangle will appear and will continue beyond in and out point revealing the available clip's handles. If not handles are available then the brown line will stay within the clip on the timeline.
    Visit the link I sent to you to more understand handle matters.

  • Deleting Transitions without offsetting video clips

    I just loaded up Final Cut Studio and in the older versions there is a way to delete transitions between clips without having the video clips shift to the left. How is this accomplished in the new program.
    I working with a series of video clips put down to music. That is why I need the video clips to stay on there origanal spots
    Thanks

    As I read your post I wonder if you are working under a misunderstanding of how transitions work and are displayed. What was said above is true if you are removing a clip. Things do not move when removing a transition - this is why.
    If you have two clips next to each other on the same video track and drop in a transition, the clips do not change position or timing. Lets say in this example the transition is centered, that is, the transition is using equal length handles from each clip. The transition is drawn showing the area or length of time that the overlap occurs using the handles available. At the center of length of the transition is the cut line even though you can not see it now.
    When the transition is removed, It VISUALLY looks like the the the clip end point (the end of the clip in the timeline) moves, however, the cut remains where it has been the whole time.
    If this isn't what you're asking - sorry for my misunderstanding.
    good luck.

  • Problems With News Video Clips?????????

    In the past I have been able to watch news video clips on Fox and CNN. For some reason I can not determine, I can no longer do it.
    When I click on the video clip news story, the player pops up but the video does not load and play. I can not think of anything I have changed on my puter that would cause this.
    I use a G4, OSX 10.3.9, and my internet is with Direcway.
    Can someone please help me?
    Thanks, John

    Well, it seems as thought the QuickTime Player is working on CNN News Videos, but I still can not get the Free Video player to work on Fox News.
    All suggestions would be welcome. Thanks

  • Is it possible to split an added audio clip (like you can with the video clips)?

    I'm working in iMovie 9.   I've recorded a audio voiceover that I added to my video clips. 
    I want to be able to split the voiceover audio so I can separate the different sentences and move them to where they are appropriate relative to the video.
    With video, this is easily done with shift+command+S.
    I tried selecting the audio track and doing shift+command+S but it doesn't work.
    I can't figure out how to do this.  Is it possible? 

    Thanks for the tip.  Tried it, no go.  Guess 9 is primitive that way.
    I now remember a few years ago having the same problem, and I contacted Apple and suggested they make this possible in future versions of iMovie.   Guess they listened to me! 

  • OK, so what's with viewing video clips on iPad?

    So we got this iPad 2 already a while ago, and watching video clips has been always a challenge... YouTube has been working fine, Netflix movies -- perfect, but when going to different news or sports sites, even using those sites' apps — video clips mostly don't work, many times presenting the QuickTime icon on the screen (sometimes with audio, no video)...
    I know there's been an everlasting issue with Flash Player and iPad, but isn't it time to find a workaround?  Am I missing something?
    ...Thanks...

    I was more thinking of some plug-in that allows Flash Player to work on the iPad...  A browser, like Chrome or Safari means we can't use the apps that the media outlets have, and where we want to watch video clips...
    As to your 2nd claim, I don't get it, I don't get Adobe's logic...

  • Problem with splitting video clip

    Often when I split a video clip at the playhead, delete the clip fragment I don't want, iMovie will end up regenerating the entire original clip placing it immediately after the split and shortened version. Quite annoying as I don't always scroll and look for the duplicate. Therefore I end up with the desired shortened clip followed by the longer original. I know how to crop but sometimes I prefer to split and delete one of the split clip fragments. Any idea of what is going on

    When iMovie is acting oddly, doing the following items of basic maintenance often cures the problem:
    1. Close iMovie and trash the file named com.apple.iMovie.plist found in User/Library/Preferences. iMovie will create a new .plist file on relaunch.
    2. Do a permissions repair, using the Utilities/Disk Utility app on your Mac.
    3. Update your iLife programs, particularly Quicktime, and do a permissions repair afterwards.
    Additionally, make sure that you have sufficient free disk space, about 15GB, but more is better. Then, if you have any 3rd party plug-ins, particularly Quicktime, disable them temporarily by moving them to a different folder.
    Items 1 and 2 alone often solve the problem, and they are easy to do.

  • I am having trouble with my video clips not transitioning correctly

    I am making a video in imovie 11.  as I added clips and transitions it was changing my clips and some were not changing to the next clip.  How do I fix this?

    There is also a setting in restrictions - Settings>General>Restrictions>Privacy>Photos and one for Facebook, did you restrict anything in there?

  • 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.

  • HT5409 AVCHD audio does not play with the video clip

    iPhoto does not import, or even see the clips, and when QuickTime played the clip off the card itself, no audio is present even though the inspector shows stereo.              

    Morning Remigijus Biciunas,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Some devices don't appear in the regular import view of iPhoto. You can still use AVCHD video from these cameras by dragging and dropping or menu-driven imports.
    For more information on this, take a look at this article:

    Hope this helps,

  • Bluetooth File Transfer Problem with Video Clips -...

    Hello!
    I am posting this problem even though a similar one is claimed to be solved ...
    I have a similar Problem with BT video clip file transfer in my E5-00 as someone had earlier with music files (SW up to date). Except that in this case the files are unique video clips received from one of the latest Samsung Android phones via Bluetooth (don't ask me which format).
    Tried the obvious first, using Windows File Manager over USB. Even Windows Search could not locate the files, not even using wildcards.
    Also tried using Ovi Suite Syncronisation, but the files did not appear in either Photos/Videos or Messages (even though the files are in the SMS Inbox - does not make sense why). 
    The problem in applying the solution approach presented here for Music seems to be that the files cannot be played at all in my E5-00's. Therefore I don't get as far as to the menu where the E5 would ask whether or not the files should be saved or not.
    So far I have not been able to connect to an old bluetooth laptop (Windows XP) so that the Bluetooth Exchange would connect let alone seen whether the BTexchange works in this case or not.
    Is there any other chance of getting to the files through the directory structure? If so, please give me the (Windows) directory path? Any other advice than switching to Android?

    Unfortunately I have reached an impasse.  If I touch a video clip (in organizer) the system crashes.  I mean locked up cold. I'm not sure what has caused this but I do know that I will not be able to communicate correctly or sufficiently with you in order for you to help me out.
    I've found PS and Premier to be very difficult to work with.  Very, very frustrating.  Photography, both still and video, is not as enjoyable as it once was.
    Again, I very much appreciate your initial help and if I get to a point where I've improved my situation ... I'll reach out again.  Thanks

  • Merge Still Photos with Video Clips?

    I have an iMovie project containing only video clips in the timeline, arranged by capture date/time. I also have an iPhoto file containing still photos of similar material. How can I import all of the iPhoto stills into the iMovie project such that the photos are inserted within the timeline and combined with the video clips so that everything (photos and videos) is arranged by date/time? Is that possible? If not, can someone suggest a script that will do just that?

    iM is no 'scriptable' app, video editing is usually no process for any automatic tasks...
    I would...
    * give the photos some names which indicates where in timeline of the iM project they belong (numbers 1,2,...? a date...?)
    * place photos manually into time of project...
    ... yes, video-editing is sometimes a painstaking, time-consuming tasks ... ;))

  • Emails with video clips

  • Narration does not stay with video clips when editing

    I have been working on a large video project in PE7. I just finished adding approximately 100 narrations at various points in various clips. I then inserted a video clip that was missing and all the narrations seems to have shifted and are no longer in sync with the video clips. Any suggestions before and go to the timeline and move each clip?

    If you inserted a clip, the timeline is designed to "ripple" or move over to allow for the clip.
    If you don't want the timeline to ripple as you add new clips, hold down the Ctrl key as you add your clips.

  • Windows Movie Maker - no sound on QT video clips

    I'm trying to combine QuickTime video clips (downloaded from Casio camera) into one movie, using Windows Movie Maker (Vista). All the clips have sound when I open them in their folder but after importing the clips in to MovieMaker, there is no sound. How do I import these clips so that their sound is also there? I have no problem with other video clips, only those saved as QT.
    Thanks
