That's an interesting POV because my experience is that FCP handles intermittent recording breaks extremely well – as long as the camera is correctly identified.

  • Can I merge sequential video clips into one clip on import?

    I have 3 JVC GY-HM750U cameras  and they a recording into approx 10 min clips if you record for long durations.
    So if I record for 30 minutes I would have 3 consecutive clips. Usually this isn't that big of a deal but when we have 3 cameras running and we want to edit using multicam or multiclip editing it is kind of a pain when each angle is broken up into pieces.

  • Swap edit with more than one video clip

    Hi
    I just discovered Swap Edit: drag a clip (could be on multiple tracks) to a different in point, hold down Option (to see the curved arrow) and drop to move the clip to the new in point and ripple the sequence accordingly. Great.
    But - it doesn't seem to work if I highlight two sequential video clips and try to move them. Option key only switches between overwrite and insert arrows. Anyone know if it's possible?
    thanks!

    As far as I know it works if you drag and drop a single clip each time.

  • How do I transfer video clips from iPhoto to iDVD? I followed the instructions in the help section but it did not work.

    I would like to make a DVD from video clips I took of my Grandchildren. I went to the help section and it stated to click on the video clip, then click 'share' and choose 'send to iDVD'. That option was not available on the share button. How to I transfer to iDVD. Thanks for any help.

    Do you plan to put each video clip in iDVD to be playes separately?  If so then here's how:
    1 - open iDVD and select your theme. 
    2 - click on the Media button at the bottom right and then on the Photo button at the top.
    3 - in the search window type in ".mov" (or the extension of the video clips you plan to use).
    4 - all of the video clips with the extension you entered will be displayed and you can drag them into the menu area at the left. 
    Another way would be to put all of the video clips in an Album and click on that album to view and drag the clips:
    Remember, the order that they are added to the menu will be the order that the buttons will highlight when you scroll thru the buttons with a DVD player remote.
    This will give you a menu with a separate button for each video clip (up to 12 in a menu with some themes).
    If you want to play all of the clips one after another you could create a slideshow in iDVD with the "+" button at the bottom and drag the video clips into the slideshow as you would still photos.  Set the slide duration to anything but manual and don't apply any transition.
    That will let you play all of the clips sequentially.

  • How do I import video clips from iPhoto if it doesn't recognize the video clips in iMoive

    I'm trying to make a movie using iMovie and I recorded some clips using a Sony Digital Camera and iMovie won't let me upload the video clips from iPhoto. I try to import them but when i try to click on the file, it won't let me. Like its not bold like other files (It will let me upload video that were taken with my iPhone) I have iMovie 09.
    What do I need to do?

  • Play multiple video clips in slide show

    I have 4 video clips (or I can do it in 1 movie) I want to have a menu screen with one of the themes. Then I want the viewer to be able to choose clip 1 and then play all the way through the other 3 clips in succession. Or I want them to be able to click clip 3 and then have it play clip 3 and then through to clip 4 and return back to the menu. So basically I would like to work like a standard movie DVD you purchase at a store. Is this possible?
    I know you can put clips into slide shows (hence the title of this thread), but when I do that, it automatically starts to play through the clips. Is there a way to choose the slide show and then to give you the option in there to choose which clip your want, and then to play through the rest sequentially?

    Here's a technique I like to use...
    Create a shape -- It will be black and white where the white is what you want to show video. In the control tab of the shape you can change size/softness/location/aspect... etc.
    Lay the video on the track above - Change the VIDEO track's composite mode to TravelMatte-Luma.
    Use the video's motion tab viewer and image/wireframe in the canvas to center up the image you want.
    Add another shape above that and then video track and change to TravelMatte-Luma etc.
    The plus for this way is that you can change the video without have to reset all the croping and trying to match it all.

  • FCutExpress HD 3.5, HOw do I Treat an Image Sequence as a Video clip?

    And edit it as if it was a video clip
    My images are an animation i exported from a 3d program, but i exported as IMage sequence using PNG format.
    I know how to import into Final cut,, but I'm not sure how to edit them as a BLOCK, and drag them to the viewer so i can workr with them as if it was a video clip.( I tried selecting them all in the timeline and dragging to the viewer and it seemed to work but in the viewer it was only one image(one frame ) )
    Then also how would i add video transitions and effects as if the image sequence was actually a video clip?

    Hi -
    You can use Quicktime Pro to make the clip, if your images are sequentially numbered. Open Quicktime, choose File>Open Image Sequence, and select the first frame of your images. Quicktime will ask what your frame rate you want and then create the movie.
    Once it is done, go File>Export and choose Movie to Quicktime Movie. Then select Options, and select the codec etc, that you want to edit with (DV, HDV, Animation, etc.) and then export the file and save the exported file.
    Import that file into FCE and you should be ready to go, it will behave like any other movie clip.
    Hope this helps.

  • Converting a video clip into individual frames

    I have been asked by a company to send a 30-second clip that has been converted into individual, sequential frame files; and then put those frames into a bimap or tiff format. 
    Obviously it can be done; unfortunately I've never heard of this. Does anyone know how to do this? Can this be accomplished on FCPX?
    I am using FCPX 10.1.3 on a Mac Pro 10.9.4. The video clips were imported as an .MXF file and then transcoded into an .MOV file through a sony plug-in in FCP. I've been told these transcoded files are wrapped in .MOV but still retain the Sony-specific codec. I am rather new to Final Cut, so that may be irrelevant information for this question.
    Many Thanks.

    Click the Share Button and then Add Destination.
    Image Sequence is in the 2nd column 4th from the top (selected but difficult to notice.)
    Afterwards, select the destination from the column on the left and rename it (optional/recommended) and set its settings. Below, I'm setting a destination for JPEG Image Sequence:
    After it's created, you can just select the destination from the Share menu.

  • How can I create a video clip that has multiple copies of the same subject playing at the same time?  Basically like one person became 50 backup dancers!

    Hello Everyone,
    I am trying to create a single video clip where my original subject (dancer) is multiplied on the screen many times.  Basically I am trying to create a background video for a dance team and want to make it look like an army of the same person dancing behind them.  Amy guidance would be great!

  • HT4589 How do I move video clip clip up or down after setting letterbox, i used to be able to do this until i upgraded to 10.0.6

    I used to be able to manually move my video clip up and down in the event the browser using one of the settings. It was a vertical settings that i would use to pull a video clip down after i applied a letterbox to the clip, so I could see the top of the the video clip that got blocked out by the letterbox. Still looking no luck....I used to be able to do this just upgraded to FCPX 10.0.6 now i dont have the setting..

  • How do I sync multiple audio clips to one video clip?

    I have video (with stereo audio from a camera mic), and for each take, there are also four additional mono audio tracks that line up with it. It was footage shot outdoors in the city, so I guess the filmmakers just wanted to have as many options for sound mixing as possible given how much background noise there would be. I have tried selecting the video clip and the four audio clips at once and selecting "synchronize clips," but it doesn't work. It spits out a synchronized clip that seems to have converted two of the mono tracks into one stereo track... and then disregarded the remaining two mono tracks. It's a mess. It's likely someone else will fine tune the audio once I'm done cutting the video together... but I'd like to get all the audio tracks properly synced from the start. Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Do you mean manual syncing? I've been reading this thread about workaround, which aren't working for me: http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/344/21236
    But the question they are asking is the same one I am asking. Isn't this a typical situation, having multiple mics for one camera? For example, if someone filmed a concert with one camera but used both the camera audio, and ambient mic, and a mix from the board, then that would be 3 audio tracks with 1 video track. I'm in a similar situation, and I'm finding it hard to believe that FCPX isn't equipped to edit this way. There must be some way to get one video clip (with reference audio) to sync with four audio tracks.

  • CS5 Video Clip no longer auto plays

    Hi,
    I have a video player that I'm creating in Flash -- my video clips are on different scenes and I wanted a "menu" bar to allow the viewer to pick which scene they wanted. I found tutorials for various scrolling thumbnail menu bars and I eventually found a code which allowed me to click from scene to scene.
    However, now that the menu bar works, the video clips do not automatically play anymore and I'm not sure why.
    This is the link to my file: http://www.mediafire.com/?y7oofbwg444lnp8
    I only have one action script on the scene, which is the top layer that has [AS]stop();[/AS]
    I have two buttons on either side of the video clip:
    [AS]on (press) {
              nextScene(); play();
    }[/AS]
    [AS]
    on (press) {
              gotoAndPlay("SI", 1);
    [/AS]
    This is the coding for the scrolling menu bar:
    Frame 1:

    // give me credit for it. Just knock yourself out with it!!
    // If you like it or have suggestions, just drop me an e-mail!
    // **stupid people tip**
    // to use this scroller as is --
    //copy all the frames in the timeline (by right/(control //for mac) click, copy frames)
    //then right click on your timeline  and paste frames
    //sorry if that is insulting, but when I first started this stuff, I was dumb too :-)
    // Okay... First let's set some variables......
    // Xphoto = startposition of the scoll image
    xphoto = 258;
    // Widthmovie = This variable hase to be set to the
    // same amount of the moviewidth
    widthmovie = 325;
    // Scrollspeed = The scollspeed of the image (high numbers result in slow scrolls 10=average)
    scrollspeed = 25;
    // widthphoto = the width of your scrollable image in pixels
    widthphoto = 2116;[/AS]
    Frame 2:
    [AS]// Setting the xmouse to 0 in the centre of the movie:
    xmouse = _xmouse - (widthmovie / 2);
    // Setting the speed:
    speed = (xmouse) / scrollspeed;
    // If the speed is negative, the speed will be made positive here:
    if (speed < 0) {
              speed = -(speed);
    //new function courtesy of Rob
    //basically says that if the mouse isn't betwen these two y points it won't work
    //**stupid people tip**
    //make sure that you figure out the top and bottom y points of your "photo" and insert them accordingly!
    mouseposition = getProperty("/myself", _y);
    if (_ymouse < 330) {
              speed=0;
    if (_ymouse > 390) {
              speed=0;
    // If the mouse moves to left, the photo will scroll to the right:
    // (That makes sense.... Doesn't it!! ;-)
    if (xmouse < 258) {
              xphoto = xphoto + speed;
    // If the mouse moves to the right, the photo will scroll to the left:
    if (xmouse > 258) {
              xphoto = xphoto - speed;
    // Checking for the left end of the image:
    if (xphoto > 258) {
              xphoto = 258;
    // Checking for the right end of the image:
    if (xphoto < -(widthphoto - widthmovie)) {
              xphoto = -(widthphoto - widthmovie);
    // Placing the moviclip (photo) on it's new postition:
    setProperty("photo", _x, xphoto);
    [/AS]
    [AS]gotoAndPlay (2)
    // make sure this clip this in your movie when you copy it. 
    //**last stupid people tip**
    // if you copy these frames into any other frames other than 1, make sure you change the frame that it repeats (ie. if you copy these 3 action frames into 5,6,7 "gotoAndPlay (6)")--

    //**i realized that it's more fun when drinking beer.
    //-rg
    [/AS]
    Then inside the thumbnail, to make it serve as a button:
    [AS]on (rollOver) {
              button2.gotoAndPlay(2);
    on (rollOut) {
              button2.gotoAndPlay(16);
    on (release) {
              // You can assign an actionscript to each Button in here:
              _level0.gotoAndPlay("my_target1");
    }[/AS]
    Thanks!

    you need to remove:
    gotoAndPlay (2)
    so your video can play.  you've embedded your flv into your timeline so it only plays when the timeline plays and that goto is preventing the timeline from playing.
    of course, if you remove that the thumbnail code won't work.
    bottomline:  your project code is a mess and using an flv in a timeline is not what you should be doing.
    you should have no code attached to objects, no frame loops and no flvs embedded in a timeline.  you should attach your code to a timeline, user an enterframe loop and use an flvplayback component to play your flv(s).

  • Importing xbox 360 video clips into imovie 6.0.3sk

    Hi, I have an xbox 360 that I would like to import some video clips off of onto my computer using imovie. I have a Powermac G4 with a dual 1.4 ghz cpu, 2 GB of RAM, and lots of HD disk space. I am using an ADS Pyro A/V link for capturing video. I have used this many times in imovie to capture video directly from a TV, VCR, DVD player, etc. For some reason when I hook up the cable from the xbox 360 to the Pyro (using either component connection or composite/RCA connection) and hit play in imovie to preview what's being converted, it can't process it. Sometimes it will show a bunch of pixelated squares, sometimes it won't show anything. Every once in a while it can process the sound, otherwise it doesn't show anything. After a few times, it says the pyro has been disconnected, although it obviously hasn't been. I've also tried directly importing without previewing it during the import, but that doesn't work either. I'm not sure if I need to set something a certain way? But I know you can import from the 360 because there are obviously many video clips floating around the internet taken straight from the xbox.
    Anybody know anything about this or have any ideas? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance

    Nevermind...I figured it out. There is a little button on the video cable that toggles HDTV on or off. Apparently it has to be off. So if anyone else has this problem, hopefully they can learn from my mistake.

  • Sony DCR-DVD505 Handycam: Unable to get video clips, audio

    Evaluating Adobe Premier.  Hopefully helpful for other Sony DCR-DVD505 users.
    Objectives:
    1) Get videos from Sony DCR-DVD505 handycam into Premier Elements
    2) Drag and drop various clips into Sceneline
    3) Insert menu markers
    4) Burn DVD
    Stuck in Step 1, getting video from handycam, unable to get video clips (with audio)
    First Try: NO AUDIO.
    The Sony DCR-DVD505 burns a mini-DVD (1.4 GB) while recording.  After "finalizing" the disk, the media may be imported into the computer.  Streaming was supported by Windows XP driver but is no longer supported in Windows Vista.   In fact, Vista Service Pack 2 (SP2) does not even recognize the camera as a DVD drive!  So downgraded to Vista SP1 and used the Sony Picture Motion Browser to import media into computer as MPG files.  Each MPG file is a clip (corresponding exactly to camera record on-off sequence while shooting).  Then opened up Adobe Premier Elements 8.  Used get media to import all the MPG clips into "Organize".  Dragged and dropped various clips...inserted a menu or two and...burned the DVD.  PROBLEM: VIDEO OK, BUT NO AUDIO(?!).  The MPG files on computer play fine (with audio) inside Windows Media Players.  Read all sorts of nonsense about why Adobe Premier (probably old versions) cannot work with "low-quality/compressed" MPG and needs to be a particular type AVI soo....
    Second Try: Capture VOB directly
    Forget the camera.  Insert the mini-DVD directly into computer DVD drive, create a new project and followed directions from  "Lowdown on VOB" http://forums.adobe.com/message/2117743 and "tools to convert to DVI" http://forums.adobe.com/thread/415317.  I loaded the VOB directly and dropped them into  Timeline as advised by the second post (only hitch being the first VOB pertaining to the DVD menu is not recognized and is neither needed).
    However, File > Export is always GREYED out (unusable).  And the status at bottom right seems to be looping on "Background Rendering".  DO I WAIT?  In any case, the whole video is showing up as a single continuous stream and what I want are the clips from the camera?! 
    Then I tried Prism (again as per the second forum post mentioned above).  It simply did something to process 30 minutes of video and crashed in the end without explanation - saying there was an error in conversion.
    Is this AVI conversion even a good idea?  How would I get my clips back??
    Bottomline.  My mini-DVD and imported MPGs plays fine in Windows Media Player.  However unable to extract the camera clips (with audio).

    Dawg, I have the Sony DCR-DVD305, and have been using it successfully for quite a while with PE7, with few issues, once I had a workflow nailed down.
    I believe the 505 is basically the same camera, with some additional features.
    This workflow worked for me in the past so I'll pass that along:
    Sony Browser to PC as Mpeg.
    Mpeg to Windows Movie Maker, output to DV-AVI, taking default settings.
    DV-AVI imported into PE7.
    This should also work for PE8.
    Upon getting Cyberlinks PowerDirector v7, my new workflow changed to this:
    I take the min-DVD directly from camcorder to my PC, and capture the disk via Power Director.
    PD will convert the VOB's directly to DV-AVI Type 2 on one pass.
    I then load this DV-AVI into PE7.
    (PD v7 was pre-installed on my new PC from HP, or it can be purchased from Cyberlink).
    Other options to try:
    Copy the VOB's directly from the mini-DVD to your PC and use Prism to convert these to AVI.
    Or load the VOB or Mpeg into PE, then use that to convert to AVI.
    (Export to DV-AVI with PE8 is done with SHARE/PC, not Export under the File Menu, which is greyed out).
    I've had many issues trying to work with Mpeg's and VOB's when loaded directly to PE with limited success.
    So if you can get it converted successfully to AVI outside of PE, I've found this to be a better approach.
    Post results, if any of this works for you...
    Note: One other thing, if you are working directly with VOB's to PE, especially multiple VOB's from a single DVD, you can encounter out-of-sync issues between video and audio. If this occurs, review this link from Muvipix:
