Skip to scene in video - where's the diamond?

I would like to know a way to "fast fast-forward" through a video. Manual says to hit centre button in the "Now Playing" screen and a slider will appear with a diamond noting current location within the file. The manual says that I can then use the click wheel to move through the file. However, when I hit the centre button (while the video is playing) I see a slider noting place within the video file but no diamond. When I use the click wheel all I do is adjust the volume. Why? Am I in the Now Playing screen if the video is playing as it normally does?
Any suggestions? Am I missing something so incredibly fundamental and obvious that I should be embarrassed?

You'll feel quite silly when I tell you this:
One Click = Displays progress
Two Clicks = Displays "Fast-Forward Diamond-Scroll"
Three Clicks = Change Brightness (Video) / Change Rating (Music)
Four Clicks (Music Only) = Change Shuffle Setting
If you bring up the Volume Scroll, click twice, then you should see a Diamond shape you can scroll quite quickly or slowly with, depending on "thumb-speed"

  • 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!

  • Captured analog video, where does the actual captured file go?

    I am backing up old analog video 8 tapes to digital, using a Canopus ADVC-55 converter. The process is going just fine as far as I can tell, but I am sure I will have more questions as I get into this further. I am using FCP 6.04.
    As an initial test, I completed a Capture Now (non-controllable device selected) of a short 30 min. analog tape, using an older video 8 Sony Handicam, running through the Canopus interfacing with FCP. Primarily I want to run through all these old tapes (about 15 of them…) and back them up onto a dedicated Iomega external firewire drive, to retrieve for later use.
    Question du jour… Where the heck is the actual data file on the hard drive? Isn’t the file I see in the bin, from a result of the capture, just an alias pointing to the actual captured data file? The FCP document is only 24 KB, but I know the data file is much larger. I have searched the drive high and low but cannot locate it… Can anyone answer this? Also, I’ve read in discussions here about doing transfer to DV (I have a Canon digital camcorder I could use) rather than the hard drive… but if this is for backup purposes only, should that matter? And wouldn’t I lose a step of quality that way?

    I understand Kevan. For the time being, all I wanted to do was get these old 8 mm tapes backed up to digital format because I am afraid the tapes will degrade. They are about 12 years old. I also have some VHS cassettes that are much older that I plan to back up also.
    Eventually I would like to build some family movies and will use these files, but if you think I should be capturing into DV (I can use my Canon DV camcorder I guess) I will do that instead.
    Also, I will go ahead and define the folder so I can find the files more easily in the future.
    I sure appreciate that you are taking the time to answer these questions, thanks again.

    What version of Premiere Elements and what computer operating system? You have a few other threads awaiting follow up, and consequently that information
    is not available elsewhere.
    What is your specific export...
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    AVCHD
    and Presets = MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080p30 or something like that.
    Specific please.
    But what specifically are you entering in the Save In: field of the dialog that includes the Save button to initiate the export process.
    Are you saving it as a file to the Desktop or to a specific folder on the Desktop? Have you given the export a distinctive file name?
    The screenshot shows the Save In: to the Desktop as a file.
    I have no idea of your background with the program, so I ask these questions so as to take nothing for granted.
    If the computer Desktop is crowded, as mine often is, it is easy to have difficulty spotting a file save to the Desktop.
    We will be watching for your follow up.
    Thank you.

    It will be right next to the movie in your library and the jpg file will end up on your hard disk right next to the movie file. You can see the actual file by right (or control) clicking on the image in the library view and selecting "show in Finder/Explorer"

  • Where are the videos taken by iphone stored in iphoto?

    I've taken a number of videos and still photos with my iphoto but only the still photos appear in Iphoto. Where are the visdeos stored and how can I retrieve them?

    How are you moving the photos from your Phone to iPhoto?
    What version of iPhoto?
    By default everything you import into iPhoto is stored in the iphoto library - What do you mean by "how do I retreive" them?
    To use videos in iMovie launch imovie and import the videos to iMovie
    To use them with other programs select them in iPhoto and export with kind = original (see the user tip on exporting for more information on the current options in exporting)

    Where is the location(path) of the videos that the 3GS recorded? Thanks. Kevin

    that's a private folder, so there's no method to access it. The only documented way to get videos from the camera roll is by using image picker (in 3.0 atleast)

  • Showing video window in the same scene

    Hi there
    I´m doing a project for university and i have a section
    just for videoclips.
    I want to have a menu list on the left of the screen that
    when the user presses each element in the list a video will show up
    in the middle of the screen.
    I was thinking in linking the video to another scene like i
    was doing already but perhaps instead of giving the user another
    level to go i just show the video in the same scene.
    How do i do that?
    Also, is it possible to have control buttons like stop and
    play that stay static in the scene and work in each of the videos
    that open in that screen?

    Yes, you can do that. Just set one sprite channel to hold the
    digital video. Then use your menu to select the video. Set the
    member of the digital video sprite to that member.
    The play and stop controls can work the same way. They will
    play that sprite, regardless of the member that's currently
    occupying the sprite.

  • Where is the App icon for HD 1080p Video? From the online photos it should be separate from the camera App.

    Where is the App icon for HD 1080p Video? From the online photos it should be separate from the camera App.
    It's supposed to have a blue background with 1080p in white, while inside there is a white camera with the letters HD in blue.
    I cannot find this App icon. Where is it located? It was supposed to be preinstalled.
    Thanks.

    There is no app.
    It is the camera.  Just take video with the camera.

  • Photo booth functionality lost: where is the video/background replacement?

    Hi,
    I used photo booth to replace the background with a video.
    For the camera I use an isight camera.
    but now in MAC 10.5.2 there IS NO BACKGROUND replacement.
    It does not display the option to add the video to be used in background.
    By the way there are only 2 pages or effects now...
    where is the video/background functionality now in photo boot?
    thanks a lot

    Hello avalokitesvara
    "2 pages or effects" is normal for us Dual G5 users.  Dual G5s can't use backgrounds (sometimes Apple calls them "backdrops" instead.)
    Whether the background/backdrop is in iChat OR Photo Booth, a Mac with an Intel processor is required to use backdrops/backgrounds.

    im looking for them on my PC not the phone btw
    thanks for any help
    Message was edited by: jakobstone

    They don't sync with iTunes. You access them from another application on your computer. For me, I use Photoshop Elements to get pictures and videos off my iPhone when it's synced. Mac users can use iPhoto to do the same thing.
    Also, on the PC you can drill down into the iPhone folder structure from your Explorer window and copy/paste the videos onto your PC.

  • Where are the video files?.

    Forum,
    I am very confused,not sure I have even entered the subject question correctly.
    The MBP will not capture directly to external drive,a former post to the forum has advised me to purchase a firewire card.
    Therefore I have captured to a partition on the internal drive.
    No problems.
    I then dragged the file from the internal partition to the external drive,a green cross appeared which I understand indicates the file has transfered to the external drive.
    However when I examine space used on the external drive it is only 157Mb.
    Clearly a 30 minute video uses 6 Gb.
    I can see that information in the internal partition.
    Now what I can not understand is when I choose the file in FCP to enter into the viewer it tells me it is offline.
    Thinking it may be in the external drive,despite knowing that it can not be stored in 157 Mb.I start up the external drive.
    Now the clips come to life and I can drag them into the viewer and proceed.
    So, where is the 6Gb. file?
    Why do I need to start up the external drive when the file is not there,or is it.
    Some time ago Studio X advised me it is better to enter video files onto an external drive.
    So I have taken his advice because he obviously knows what he is talking about.
    Any way there is not space to store all my video files on the internal partition,the OS and applications take up 85 Gb. so that means 100Gb. allowing for 10% head room, only about 38 Gb. for video files.
    The information I have entered about my kit is accurate.
    If my post appears pedantic,forgive me,but so many posters are asked to clarify or give more information.
    I hope I have supplied all information required.
    Thank you
    Michael Craven.

    David,
    Thank you for your reply.
    Your information in paragraph 1 is noted with interest and added to my information book.
    I have carried out the steps you suggested in paragraph 2.
    157 Mb. is still shown.
    When I open the file in Quick time, the following statement appears "The movie could not be opened,The file is not a movie file"
    Well to press on I deleted all files from the internal drive partition named "video files" That partition is empty.
    So,back to the iomega external drive.
    Opened the file "Georgie and her kittens'.
    FCP opens and shows the eight clips of that video.
    Double click, select "show in the viewer" and they appear in the viewer.
    Obviously the video files are on the external drive. I think.
    I must have had doubts that a transfer of 6 Gb. from the internal drive to an external drive was so quick.
    The iomega external drive shows "extended (journaled)"
    In a later post reply Ken Summerall sugests "journaled' slows down information selection.
    How do I remove " journaled"?
    Should I pose that question in another post?
    Thank you for your help.
