Scrolling multiple clips... Hand do or is there a plug in?

I have a 3:30 min video that i am doing and for alot of it i have clips i want to scroll across the bottom of the screen. (like a ticker tape ot even have a film look?) I know how to size and create motion for a clip, but i was wondering if i have to do it to every clip or is there a easier way to do?
Any and every hint is much appreciated.
G5 Mac OS X (10.0.x)

animate one clip travelling accross the bottom of the screen, from not visible at one side to not visible at the other.
select that clip in the timeline and press cmd-c to copy it
now layer all the other clips that you want to scroll on ascending video tracks.
select all those clips and press opt-v to paste attributes, uncheck the "scale attribute times" property, check the "basic motion" property
now offset the start time for each clip so that they appear and scroll sequentially

Scrolling multiple clips simultaneously when selected

Does cs6 allow you scroll multiple clips simultaneously when selected. It seems I can only scroll one clip even the other clips are selected as well.
I also can't seem to select all clips in just two tracks (not select all). 3.0 allowed for both of these functions which I use often.

I'm not sure what you mean by "Scroll multiple clips simultaneously" Do you mean you want to click-and-drag multiple clips around the timeline? Make sure none of the selected clips are Locked in Time (right-click menu on a clip, or you'll see a small lock icon in the lower-left corner.)
There is a menu command to select all clips in a selected track, but currently, this only functions on one track at a time. If the full timeline is visible, the selection tools should allow you to click-and-drag to select all the clips in consecutive tracks. We have been enhacing these MT selection tools internally for a future release, but I'll verify that the functionality you've requested is present.

Importing a lot of video clips from a Sony camera to FCE; during the Log and Transfer process, is there a way to add multiple clips to the browser instead of one at a time?

Select one and click cmd-A which selects them all.
Then click the import button if it hasn't started already.

Is there a way to apply Time Remapping to multiple clips simultaneously?

Is there a way to apply Time Remapping to multiple clips simultaneously? I'd like to uniformly speed up and slow down two different clips that are playing in a picture-in-picture setup. I’m hoping there’s a more elegant way to sync them up than just editing their Time Remapping functions individually (I already tried using an Adjustment Layer. It didn’t work).

you can try nesting the two clips together, then control the time remapping of the nest.

How can I/Is there a way to: apply a preset effect to multiple clips?

I will be editing a music video from this weekend in Premiere Pro CS4, is there a way I can paste a custom preset to multiple clips (selecting hundreds) without clicking each one and pasting/dragging?
If this can be done it's going to save me hours and hours of work!
If I try at the moment by CTRL clicking a few clips is only pastes/drags into 1 of the clips, not all of them!
any help would be appreciated

Yes, see the section
Copy and paste clip effects and
Apply effects to clips in the Premiere Pro Help.

Is there a dedicated multiple clip/audio sync available in Premiere Pro 5.5

Hello
I'm coming from Final Cut Pro 7 which I usually use Pluraleyes to sync multiple clips. Is there a dedicated sync multiple clips option in PP 5.5?
Thanks
Steve

If Premiere offers you the option to use hardware encoding, then your card is recognized. There is normally nothing more to do. If I understand you correctly, you are concerned that Premiere is not using the card. There are 2 ways to check if it is:
1. Install someting like GPU-Z (google it, it's free) to monitor the GPU. Start to encode something that will actually use CUDA cores, and you should see some activity reported, given as a percentage. Keep in mind that CUDA is only used for some specific tasks (some effects, resizing) when encoding.
2. Export a file that will use CUDA when encoding 2 times, once with hardware encoding enabled, and then with software only. Is there a difference in the time needed to complete the export?

How to apply 3 way color correction to multiple clips in Final Cut Pro?

I have multiple clips from the same time and space footage that need color correction. I have worked on one of the clips and found the settings I like.
Is there a way to apply that correction to other clips without starting from scratch on each one?
Thanks!

SoCal (above) listed one way. Another way you can do it if you like the color correction that you have done and want to save it, you can click the picture of the hand in the color correction tab and drag it into the browser. This saves that specific arrangement of colors, highlights, etc.
Also, this might be a little easier but instead of pasting attributes and right clicking you can just grab the hand (that I just talked about) and drag it onto the clips you want to apply the same color correction to. The hand is located in the color correction tab (in viewer) and is under the "numeric" button.
Note: All of your clips in your timeline will have different contrasts, brightness, colors, etc. NO clip is going to have the EXACT same attributes as another. It doesn't matter how expensive and professional your camera is. Every shot is different whether you are using artificial lighting or the natural lighting. Having that said, you will probably still need to adjust your different clips a little bit to make them look like they are in the same room at the same time. Hopefully if your lucky or had perfect lighting for all of your shots, you will not have to do much messing around with your contrast, brightness, etc. Good luck!

Export multiple clips from one timeline

Hi,
Is there a way to export multiple clips into separate files from the timeline. So, basically i have a time line with many clips which i need to export to individual files, not one long video. In FCP 7 I would drag all these clips into a new folder and then batch export. But in FCPX?
Thanks!

Of course i's not "half baked". Just because it lacks a feature that you want doesn't make it so.
There isn't as NLE out there that doesn't attract complaints from some users about its functionality in some area or other.
Fortunately, the fully functional trial version gives us a good chance to find out first-hand whether the design meets our requirements.

Selecting multiple clips in Imovie for Iphone for plus Ipad 2?

hi guys first post on these forums i hope you can help.
I recently downloaded imovie from the app store for my iphone 4 and so far have been really impressed with it. However there is one problem i'm having. I would like to select multiple clips from my camera roll without having to keep going back into the media section and having to scroll down to find the clips for everyone i want to add. Is there a way of selecting multiple clips? any help appreciated!

There is a way to load multiple video clips at once on iMovie's timeline on the iPad.
I have been able to load multiple video clips into my iPad's iMovie's timeline at the same time, but this process requires the combined use of iMovie and iPhoto and won't work if you have iOS 8 running on your iPad.
This is the way I do it. You create an iMovie project (Movie) on your iPad. iMovie will show the video clips that you can load to the timeline, but, as you have probably already found out, you can't load more than one clip at a time in iMovie's timeline. My videos have sometimes 100-200 clips, so loading them into the timeline one-by-one is a very long and tedious process. I do this instead:
(1) I go to iMovie and load the first clip on the timeline using iMovie. (This needs to be done to avoid iPhoto importing its background music to your video clips in iMovie.)
(2) Then I get out of iMovie and go into iPhoto. iPhoto shows you all the photos, but more importantly also all the videos in your Camera Roll.
(3) In iPhoto, I select the next video in the Camera Roll (the one right after the clip that I already placed on iMovie's timeline).
(4) Next, I hit the icon at the top of iPhoto that takes you to the "Share" section (the icon is a square box with an arrow pointing to the top). This will open a dialogue box that has a section there for "Apps" and you will see the iMovie icon.
(5) Select the iMovie icon, it will open a dialoge box that reads at the bottom: "Choose Photos...".
(6) Select "Choose Photos..."
(7) Now you can select up to 15 video clips in iPhoto to load into iMovie's timeline. You select each video by tapping it, it becomes encased in a white square and will show a check mark.
(8) After selecting up to 15 video clips, hit "Next" in the top right corner, you will be taken to iMovie.
(9) In iMovie, you will be asked to select the project into which the clips are to be placed. Select the project and the clips will all be loaded at once into iMovie's timeline.
Repeat the process again each time to load more clips; the process will place each new group of clips on iMovie's timeline right after the previously loaded clips. When you return to iPhoto, the clips that appear encased with a heavy white border are the ones that have already been placed in the timeline for iMovie; select the next uncased clip and 14 more and load them into iMovie in the same way as described before.
One word of caution: This process only works using iMovie and iPhoto together. iPhoto does not work with iOS 8! (Thank you, Apple!) That's why I don't have iOS 8 on my iPad, so, the process works fine. I hope this helps.
Cheers,

Save a single clip out of a file of multiple clips

Hello: I have a VHS video tape that was used to archive multiple scenes shot by a DV camera. I can load the entire VHS tape as a single file into Adobe Premiere Elements 12 and have cut the source into multiple clips. What I would like to do now is save each clip as a separate .avi file so that I can then import same to the Organizer.
I have found the Export item under the File menu hoping that is the command that will enable me to save (export) clips as separate .avi files but I can't understand how to enable it.
Am I on the right track with the Export command or are there other ways to save separate clips as individual .avi files to my PC?
Any and all help is appreciated.
Thanks,
John

Short version...
Premiere Elements 12 File Menu/Export is now for Title only and only after the copy of the Title is highighted in Expert workspace Project Assets.
"Project file" was never part of the equation with File Menu/Export even when it included Movie besides Title choice. So I am not sure where John is coming from when he write "File-Export is for your project file....." The project file is a .prel file; the title file is a .prtl file.
Details About Exports AVI Files from Premiere Elements 12/12.1...
What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on? For now, I will assume Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit. I will also assume that you are in a NTSC and not PAL setup.
The File Menu/Export/Movie has not been a feature in Premiere Elements since Premiere Elements 7. If you want to export the Timeline as DV AVI standard or widescreen in Premiere Elements 12/12.1, then you use Publish+Share/Computer AVI with Presets = DV NTSC Standard or DV NTSC Widescreen.
Important: Publish+Share/Computer/ has many choices. It might appear that there are only 3 choices, that is, Adobe Flash Video, MPEG, and AVCHD. But there are more. AVI is further down the list and has to be scrolled to to see. The scroll bar in thin and to the right of the choices.
Premiere Elements does not allow for more than 1 export at a time. Exporting more than one at a time might be found in a free program such as MPEG Streamclip.
Premiere Elements does allow for selective export of Timeline content. The keys to success there involve the two "must do" steps
1. set the gray tabs of the Work Area Bar to span just the content to be exported
and
2. place a check mark next to "Share Work Area Bar Only" in the export settings.
The gray tabs of the Work Area Bar can be set by moving them in place with the mouse cursor or using shortcuts. For the shortcuts....
Move the Timeline Indicator to the start of the segment for export, as you hold down the Alt key of the computer main keyboard, hit the left bracket key [
Move the Timeline Indicator to the end of the segment for export, as you hold down the Alt key of the computer main keyboard, hit the right bracket key ]
Please review and consider and then we can discuss the above further if necessary.

Corrupted clip import from DV: cut into multiple clips, wrong date

After importing DV tapes into iMovie '09, especially older ones, many takes are wrongly cut into multiple clips, some having the correct recording date & time, others having the current date & time. I have a single take, 32 minutes, cut into 685 tiny clips! All out of order... It's almost impossible to puzzle them in the correct order (and I lack the time).
Can iMovie be set to disregard timestamp info from the tape, and simply put clips in the order they are received from the tape? I could easily set the date & time by hand, and even make it understand it's one take, but not if it's a clip puzzle... Help!

Can imovie HD run on 10.6? I tried to install it and it said I needed iLife 08 installed first.
Yes. It works fine.
You have 6.0.4, you want 6.0 > 6.0.3 ONLY. 6.0.4 looks for iLife '08.
You can get iMovie 06 in a number of ways. You cannot download it FROM APPLE any longer (it was free for a time). You can also find iMovie 06 on the iLife 06 install disc. You can buy iLife 06 on Amazon or eBay. WELL WORTH EVERY PENNY!
iMovie 6.0.4 requires that iLife 08 is already installed. iMovie 6.0 thru iMovie 6.0.3 has no such requirement. There are no known functional differences between 6.0.3 and 6.0.4. If you install iMovie 06 from the iLife 06 disk it will probably be version 6.0 or 6.01. However you can update the software to 6.0.3 from Apple's Web site.

http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/application_updates/imoviehd603.html
If you want to have both iMovie 06 and iLife 09 (and most do) just install iMovie 06 first, then iLife 09. You are now UN-STOPPABLE!
Also when you install iLife 08 or 09, iMovie 06 is not removed from the computer. Previous editions of iMovie were always un-installed when "upgrading" in the past. Apple leaves iMovie 06 on your system, because they want you to have it. iMovie 06 works great with iDVD 09.

How to change Opacity Blending on multiple clips...??

First the problem:
Whenever I open a Premiere v6.5 project, CS4 does a "conversion."
Maddeningly, during this process, it changes the Opacity\Blending Mode of every single clip in the project to "Color" instead of leaving it at "Normal."
Since I am working with Stereo (3D) footage with a different camera on V2 & V1, I always have at least two, and often many more, video tracks (for titles, etc).
This means I have to go through every single clip on every single video track and reset it to Normal before I can proceed with the project! This can be upwards of 500 clips.
PITA!!
1) Does anyone have any idea why this is happening & how to prevent it?
or,
2) Is there a way to change this setting in all the clips at the same time?
Whenever I select multiple clips, no Effect Settings (or whatever Shift 5 is called) appear. Only there for single clips.
TIA,:-)

Do one clip, copy (rightclick) the clip, select all the others and paste attributes.

How do you select/move multiple clips from one timeline to another?

Has to do with combining multiple edls from Avid - required due to an issue with duplicate reel names in the original Arri footage. I can move them one at a time, but it is very tedious. Is there a way to select multiple clips and move them together?

Actually discovered the magic of the shift key.
IRCP Beauty doesn't recognize multiple timelines in a session, so first you have to at least get the footage on multiple tracks in the same timeline. Shift + drag on the track will allow you to move it to another timeline. Also Shift + drag on the center of the first clip in a sequence will slide the entire sequence down - which is how timelines end up getthing offset all the time. Also, if there are multiple tracks in a timeline and some are locked and some aren't, Shift + drag on a clip will slide ALL UNLOCKED tracks in the timeline.
Finally, Shift + click on either in or out marker moves both points up or down the timeline.

How can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

how can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

You do not want to edit material from different frame rates on one timeline. You CAN do this, but it is a very bad idea - and this is why.
Once you establish the sequence frame rate - lets say it is PAL material at 25fps, any material that you drop into the sequence other than 25 fps will have to be changed to play at 25 fps. If the material you add is NTSC (29.97), FCP will DROP 5 frames per sec to bring the frame rate down to 25 fps. Which 5 get thrown away? Every 6th one. This yields a funky cadence that becomes even more complex as as there are also interlaced fields (DV/NTSC is an interlaced format). Oh, and by the way, the image sizes are different as well. DV/PAL has 576 lines of resolution and DV/NTSC has 480. FCP has to scale up the NTSC to fit the PAL frame.
You do not want FCP adjusting these things on the fly. You want to do a thoughtful (and time consuming) conversion so that you end up with all your material in one format with the best possible image from the conversion process. Compressor can do an adequate job with Frame Controls turned on. The Natress Standards Conversion FCP plugin is another way to go. A third option is to find a post house that can do the conversion for you using a hardware based process.
The good news is, once everything is in the same format, editing it will be painless and the output process very quick.
Whatever frame rate/ image size you select, I'd suggest using ProRes for the codec. It is 4:2:2 color and will withstand color correction and composting with much more grace than any variant of DV based codecs.
Have fun.
