Set the Exact End of Video?

In previous versions of final cut pro I was able to just push "O" and it would restrict the exported clip at that specific moment in the timeline. I am attempting to make a 30 second video without having to go through and shorten all of the video and audio clips. How does this work in Final Cut X?
Thanks!

  • Need help setting the exact size of my JSlider

    Hello everyone. I'm trying to build a small program to help people learn a about RGB colour values, and at the same time teach myself a bit more about Java. Things have been going fine so far until I came to setting my JSlider's size. The intention is to have three JSliders with a JPanel next to each. The I need the track of the slider to be exactly 256 pixels tall (one pixel per gradient value painted into the adjacent JPanel) plus whatever extra padding and spacing the Look And Feel dictates.
    I've got the height set to 256 pixels in the following code, but it makes the JSlider as a whole 256 pixels tall and so squishes the track. I've set the minor tick spacing to 2 so that if the track was actually 256 pixels tall, the ticks would alternate over each screen pixel. If you compile and run the code, you will notice that a few ticks appear next to each other without a one-pixel gap between them. I've also verified it by taking a screen capture, pasting it into the GIMP and then using the measure tool to check the size.
    I've tried searching through the API documentation to find ways of doing it, or to see if some ideas I've had so far were possible, but so far, I've not found anything particulairly satisfactory. I even tried to see if I could set the JSlider size to current JSlider size minus the track size, plus 256, but I couldn't find a way of getting the current size of the track.
    Can anyone help me out here? I'm rather stuck.

    Here's the code with all but the JSliders stripped out. Sorry about having to put it in a seperate post; the forum wouldn't allow it.

  • A new feature in iTunes 7 allows you to set the Kind for your video??

    I'm new to Apple TV and I use Windows for the itune. My question is my music video.
    I have a lot of video music that imported to Itunes to play on my Apple Tv
    the problem is, when I Imported them it automatically put the kind of video
    to "movie". I know you can change this individually to music video.
    Is there a way to do it all at once instead of one at the time?
    Thanks for your help

    There's a Doug's AppleScript called Set Video Kind of Selected that does batch processing of the video tags.

  • How do you set the PROJECT END limit?

    Hi there,
    I know you can drag the right 'bracket' on the bar ruler or you can type in a value in the transport under the tempo. But on my system, I can only get it to bar 21601 and no further.
    You may be thinking, what am I doing? Composing a 13 hour song?
    I just have some files with time stamps on them and a few say they go beyond my project end. I'm hoping there's a setting where I can extend the limit.
    Thanks,
    Saki

    I'm afraid there is not such a setting but you can try next..
    If you need to increase this length as a time length,just halve the tempo. You can achieve the same result by using 4/8 time instead of 4/4 time, and treating quarter notes as eighth notes.A 4/8 song at a tempo of 60bpm (equivalent to 4/4 at a tempo of 120)etc.

  • How to set the System Setting

    Hi guys
    I have Final Cut Express for a few years but I don’t practice very often, I use it once or twice a year when I have a family project to do. I am confused with the Scratch Drive vs the Final Cut Express Document Folder (Scratch disk>F.C.E. Documents>). About 2 months ago, I start a New project. Before that, I cleared up all the previous project files and from the Preferences I trashed the com.apple FinalCutExpress Plist and from the Final Cut Express User Dater File I trashed the F.C.E. 4.0 Pref and the Ojb Cache and reset my Scratch Disk for capturing (not the startup). Now my editing is almost done. Last week I open the Scratch Drive >Final Cut Express Document Folder, I notice there is no captured files (captured materials,data or media) anywhere in the Capture Scratch, Autosave Vault,Thumbnail Cache File and the Waveform Cache File but there are files in the Audio Render File and the Render File (I suppose this Render File is the Video Render). I open the System Setting, I notice I have set the Scratch Disk for Video Capture, Video Render and Audio Render, the rest are set for Startup Disk; I went to the Startup disk, I found them all filled with something, but I have no idea where to locate my captured materials and I am not sure if these settings are correct or they should all be set to store in the Scratch Disk instead. I am all confused. Right now my questions are where to locate my captured materials (data/medias) and how do I reset the above settings if they need to be reset? I appreciate some one will take time to explain all these to me. My equipment is G4, Final Cut Express 4.0 with OX 10.5. If further info is needed, please adv.
    Thank you ALL.

    If I understand your advice correctly, after the current project is done, I should reset the Thumbnail >Cache File and the Waveform Cache File to the Scratch Disk and leave the Autosave Vault in the >Startup Disk because it is safer.
    Yup. Plus back up your Project file to another media type, CD etc. for double security.
    not to change the clip names either.
    Changing names is fine if you do this within the FCE application because FCE still knows where to find the file. If you change the name in the Scratch Disc through the Finder, FCE will loose the link.
    don’t know how to reconnect them
    Right click an offline clip in the Browser and select reconnect, navigate to where the clip is stored through the window that appears.
    You can search this forum for details and all is explained in the FCE manual.

  • At end of video how do I set a specific point in menu to return to?

    When my video has finished playing it returns to the start of my motion menu but I want to be able to tell DVDSP4 to start at a specific marker created in my Motion 3 project. Is there a way to do this?
    Many thanks
    Mark

    Very easy to do - click on 'add script' in the tool bar, then click on the script in the outline view. Look in the script editor tab and click on 'NOP' -the first line in the script.
    Now look in the property inspector at the 'Jump' command, use the dropdowns in that to select the right menu, and check the box that is for the loop point. When done, your script line will look a lot like the one I wrote above.
    Now, set the end jump of the track to go to that script instead of to the menu.
    All quite simple to achieve, I hope!

  • Video Chat Fuzzy on the Other End

    So the past few times I have been video chatting using imessage my buddy has complained that i was blurry. I told them to launch the connection doctor and they said that the audio was 95% and video was at 65%. I launched it as well and it said both audio and video were 100% and I could hear and see my buddy just fine, but I was blurry to them. I usually have pretty good internet connection. Any thoughts on how to fix this?

    Hi,
    The Connection Doctor "rates" shown a the green bars normally are a representation of the incoming feed.
    Therefore they are "good" to you and you are "not so good" to them.
    At the very lowest level of internet speed a Video chat 1-1 can be done on as little as 128kbps both up and down.
    Obviously since iChat started there have been vast increases in Internet Speeds for many people.
    The biggest issue comes when one end is faster then the other.
    The slower end can get pushed so  much data it cannot cope.  At the same time the Speed may in fact vary as well and this can add further problems as then the iChat Buffering can come in to effect which tries to sync Audio with Video but will drop Video frames to keep pace or smooth out jumps in speed.
    There does come a point when it will drop the Audio as it cannot sync it properly.
    As a first step both ends should go to the App Menu > Preferences > Video section and set the Bandwidth Limit to 500kbps.
    This will cap the speed if one end is mega fast compared to the other.
    It will also drop most connections below the speed where any variances will take effect.  (a 5% variance on a 10Mg service can be 1500kbps - which is faster then most video streaming site.  If the slower end is not even reaching that speed iChat or Messages can spend the whole chat trying to sort out the speed.)
    After that the things that slows up you sending data is things like poor lighting and the like such as adding a "busy" background via the Video effects.

  • How do I set the thumbnail image of my videos that export to my computer?  I'm using Premiere Elements 11 on a windows 8.1 PC 64bit.

    How do I set the thumbnail image of my videos that export to my computer?  I'm using Premiere Elements 11 on a windows 8.1 PC 64bit.
    Or how does Premiere 11 determine where to set the image for the video it is exporting?

    This is not Adobe. Rather user to user. We are all visitors here.
    Just a bit of history....back in the days of Premiere Elements 4, you could set a "poster frame" in what was called the Project area. You did this by right clicking a blank area there and, from the drop down menu that appeared, selecting View/Preview Area, and using the poster frame feature there.
    As I said, when a video imports into Premiere Elements, the thumbnail of the import has been presenting as the first frame of the video. With this Preview area "poster frame" option, you could set the video's thumbnail in the Project area so that the first frame was another frame in the video. But, this "perk" was restricted to thumbnails of the video in Project area.
    If you exported to file with the first frame modified video, the export's thumbnail in Windows Explorer would present with other than the real first frame or the poster frame as the first frame.
    Also, in more recent versions, I have observed that the export to file does not display the real first frame of the video in Windows Explorer. Seems random, but I have not kept track.
    And, remember, at the onset I wrote
    As far as I have ever seen, Premiere Elements Windows uses the first frame of the video for its thumbnail in the program.
    I know of no way within Premiere Elements to control what the program opts to do in this matter. In some compatibility
    issues, it opts to give no image but a generic one.
    I did not say that you can expect to have the Premiere Elements' export file's thumbnail in Windows displaying with its real first frame. And, the more you get into this, depending on the versions, more details need to be added to my comment about "...first frame of video for its thumbnail in the program..."
    I would have to look into all this further to get perspective on the contributing factors.
    ATR
    Add On...The Poster Frame feature appeared in versions 4, 7, 8, and 9 by my count.

  • Photoshop CC video: Where is the audio flyout menu? I want to set the audio level of a clip but when I click the little triangle the flyout only offers Motion options, no audio.

    I created a video clip by ripping from a (non-protected) DVD & brought it into Photoshop CC for editing. I want the audio to fade in & out but cannot find any audio controls!
    The info I've found online says to click the little triangle at the right end of the clip & I should get the audio flyout menu, but all I get is a menu with "Motion" options.
    Please help!! Where are the audio options I see on the tutorials?
    Thanks ...

    The audio was indeed in there; I could hear it! But I found the fix:
    Some Googling revealed that the timeline video sprites should appear *blue*, not purple as in my screenshot. I'm not sure how that happened, but I scrapped the project & restarted from scratch - and though I can't say what I did differently, this time the video sprite in the timeline was blue, and the audio flyout was there! So it's all good, thanks!

  • While my friend was setting up his iphone, i used my icloud. So now, when i send him a message i get the exact same message from myself. How do i fix this?

    While my friend was setting up his iphone because i had recently updated it for him he needed a itunes account to use for "bump" so i could transfer his contacts back. So i used my itunes and icloud account to sign in so he could download that because he didnt have any of those accounts. So when i logged in he was basically me, my name was his phones name aswell. Well i used "bump" his name was the same as mine. I got the contacts to work but now every time i send him a text message, (imessage) i get the exact same message from myself. How to i unverify him off of my icloud so i can be the only one using it?

    The fact that the problem only occurs when iphones are texting you leads me to think that iMessage may be the culprit. The fact that it is only iphones using SPRINT however is weird. Try turning imessage off on both yours and your sons phones to see if the problem persists. If it does, it may be a carrier problem.

  • StageVideo on android shows a black frame on the start and end of video playback

    When my screen starts up it goes completely black for a moment and the interface becomes unreponsive for about a second when my stagevideo player class is added to the stage. My videos are encoded using Adobe Media Encoder with the 480p android settings (vbr 2 pass). I tried cbr and that had exactly the same effect. This problem happens on both air 3.5 and air 3.4. I figure this has to be something caused by my own code because I don't see many discussions about this issue.

    Using Air 3.6 on a Samsung tab 2 - Android 4.1.1
    Having similar issues.
    I'm trying to play a different video corrisponding with a button on the stage.
    When I click the button, the video turns black, then shows the last frame of the old video then the new video starts playing.
    A just want the old video to stop and have the new one play with no flashing in the middle.
    This happens with both stagevideo and the fallback video object
    Works fine in flash player 11 windows.
    I've noticed a lot of similar type problems and some seem to be getting fixed with new Air versions.
    Anyone else currently having similar issues?
