Split/join clips?

iMovie 08, under Edit, has two choices: split clip and join clip. But nowhere in the Help file, that I could find, does it explain what these do, nor how to use them.
Could someone explain.
Thanks,
Hal

If you have part of a clip selected, you can break that clip into pieces using Split clip. So, if you have a section in the middle of a clip selected, it will create three clips. One clip for the part of the clip before your selection, one for the actual video segment you selected, and one for the part of the clip following your selection.
Join clip will reunite clips that have been split this way, assuming they haven't been deleted.

Hi, I am trying to join two clips after splitting one clip to edit 'ums' and 'ahs' in a sentence.

Hi,
I am having trouble joining clips in iMovie. Every time I try the 'join clip' choice under 'edit' is grayed out. I would like to join two clips from time to time -- not necessarily two clips that were once one and then split. Just two clips. Maybe I did not want the material in between.
This time, I did select a section of a clip during an interview to take out 'ah, ah, ah... um' and deleted that section. And in doing so I created two clips. Now I'd like to rejoin them for a seamless sentence with out the jumping from one clip to the next. But 'join clip' is grayed out.
Thanks.

Thank you.
But I wish I could join them before I share so I can make sure the transition is smooth. Right now it's obvious there's a 'jump' to the next clip, not smooth. I'd like to be able to splice and edit have it be seamless. Say, I want to add something a speaker says 5 minutes down the road to a sentence he says now, cutting and pasteing, and having it appear that he said it all at once. Right now it's obvious there was some cutting and pasteing. I was thinking joining the clips would smooth this out.

How do I join clips in iMovie, the join clip in the edit menu is never available?

I am desperately trying to edit some footage and I have split the clips and then added the footage I want inbetween the split, however I cannot join them back together as the joinclip in the edit menu is never highlighted, am stuck on what to do now, anyone help please?

The Join Clip command is meant to restore a clip that you split and then decide you want to "undo" the split.
It's really not particularly useful or necessary for editing.
The clips you use in your Project will all be effectively joined together when you export (Share) your finished project.
As you're editing your Project it appears as a bunch of separate clips but the finished project will playback as a seamless whole.

I split my clip in three ways, then deleted the middle clip

I have a question. I split my clip in three ways, then deleted the middle clip, what I do to join these three clips again ? I need some help. Is It only work with the Precision Editor? because i think it s so difficult!

Not sure I understand.
What do you mean by
when I cut back on the corner of a clip that connects to another,
If you do what I suggested above you should be able to bring back the original clip to the project from the event without affecting the other clips in the project ( ie without damaging the rest of the other cuts?)
You can drag the original clip (or any clip) to any position in the ' Time-line"
I assume from your post that you are using iMovie 11???

Erratic Behavior When Trying to Join Clips

I'm using Soundtrack 1.5 and getting stuck on what should be one of the most simple tasks -- splitting and joining clips. Splitting is not an issue, but after I split a clip (using keyboard command 'S' or the razor tool, or keyboard command b), when I move the pieces around and try to join them again, sometimes they come back together, and sometimes they don't. I can't see why this shouldn't work every time.
Can someone shed some light on this frustrating and productivity-busting problem?
Thanks.
core duo Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings, then try joining again and you should get the password prompt.

Clear Split in Clip

In FCP 7 If I split a clip I could click on the cut and delete it to join the same clip back together. How can I do this in FCPX? I would make an edit I possibly wanted to make and then didn't now it's 2 clips. Please help. Thank you

It appears to work though the selection of a Gap seems to have changed since FCP X first appeared.

Why can't I join clips?

I split my clip in order to change the cropping from one to the next. Now I want to undo this and join the clips again but the option is grayed out in the menu.

I am not totally sure you have answered my question. I understand d/ling Squared 5, but what format do the files need to be in order for me to edit them in to a movie? Any ideas of why they won't work as a .mov?
I downloaded Squared 5, converted to a .mpeg and the same thing happens. I drag and drop, the importing box flashes for a split second, then nothing happens. No media appears in the box. This is really frustrating, considering it should be an easy to use apple product. Is there another program I should be considering?

Joining Clips

How do I join two clips in the upper window? I can't figure out how to use Edit->Join Clips.
-- Brad

Brad,
Welcome to the Discussions.
If I'm not mistaken, the Join Clips command can only be used to join clips back together that you've split apart.

I want to SPLIT A CLIP. That's all. Make one piece into two.

I am looking for the equivalent of the 'Command-T' function in iMovie HD. This is one of the most commonly used actions in processing video, and apparently it doesn't exist. The 'Split Clip' command in iMovie 09 simply does not work for me. At all. EVER. I have yet to find an instance where it isn't grayed out. All I want to do is split a clip, and add a transition between the two.
While I'm on my soap box, the revisions of iMovie since V.6 are without a doubt the most counter-intuitive, joy-sucking applications ever produced by Apple. iMovie made it FUN to edit video; these last two versions make it frustrating and cumbersome.
To reiterate, I want to SPLIT A CLIP INTO TWO PIECES. If anyone here can provide instructions for doing so (as opposed to explaining why it is NOT possible), then kindly do so. Thank you.

Trey, I seriously feel your pain. I'm editing a wedding project in IM '09 and it is literally taking me twice as long to complete the project than it would have in HD. You should be able to make splits in the event browsers, but that's too much like common sense for Apple. They completely mucked up the editing process by doing away with iMovie HD, which by the way is not working well in Snow Leopard.
As for split, I suggest the same thing as above. Put the playhead where you want the split. Us shortcut key, ShiftCommandS. I had problems with it this morning, but it finally kicked in.
I also had a problem when trying delete a selection of a clip. When I clicked delete, it deleted the selection plus the extracted audio of the entire clip from which I took the selection. Not sure what caused that.
I have FCE installed, so maybe I’ll haul it out and try using it for my next project. IM '09 is a pain. I'm not even sure how it's more accessible to general users.

Can someone let me know what might went wrong in my flow?

mmm as far as I remember it's available only in 3.0, not in 2.6

Problem with variable inside split-join

Hello,
I'm using Oracle BOM Suite 10.3.0.0 and i want to use the split gateway.
In general the split activity ends with a join.
the problem is when i affect a value to a variable between the split and join, it could not get this value after the join, which means after the join the variable becomes empty just like it was before the split.
could anyone help me please.
thanks

HI
Case 1: Instance variables are not shared:
At join you can copy the variables from one of the branches to the main instance (that waits at join).
this.instanceVar = copy.instanceVar
This will copy the value of variable 'instanceVar' from the instance that just arrived at join to the instance that was waiting at join (main instance)
Case 2: Instance variables are shared:
This would mean that the main instance shares its variables with the child instances (instances between split - join). In such a case, when a variable is updated by any of the branches, the change is reflect in all the copies.
You can set the property to share or not to share instance variables, in the advanced properties of the split activity.

How can I Route to two proxies or business services with out split join

Hi,
How are you?
I´m trying to use a proxy to invoke 2 other proxiers or more at the same time but when trying to build a Split Join is giving an Error about the Security that is in the WSDL which is WSSecurity, so far I think that SPlit Join can´t handle this and is a must right now so I´m trying to figure out how to Route a Message to two proxies or business services doesn´t matter if it is in a secuencial way.
Hope somebody knows what to do.
Kind Regards,
Gerardo J

Hi!
Thanx for the response, That´s the way I´m implementing it at this moment and is working fine.
Thanx in Advanced!
Kind Regards,

Split-Join, unable to set SOAP:HEADER in OSB at Invoke Service Component.

Hi Experts,
i created a Split-join for parallel processing and invoke third party services, but this service requires some mandatory elements in soap:header like WS-Addressing and, WSA-TO and some security infomation, but i don't know how to pass header in invoke service step. Please help me to setup Header for Invoke services in split join.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks

see this :https://forums.oracle.com/thread/951618
not the most fancy way, but you can create some sort of wrapper proxyservice in front of your business service to make it work

For each sample example in OSB without Split join

Hi,
Any body have sample example for For each in OSB without Split join......Thanks in advance

I know this is an old thread, but I just ran into this same problem. Wow! That's a crappy 'feature'. I wasted 4 hours this morning on this thinking it was me doing something wrong in my xpath, but nope, you need to cast the counter to an int .......
I hope they fix things like this in the next major release.
Thanks for the solution.

Oracle Service Bus 10.3 - split join how to set header for invoked service

In Oracle Service Bus 10.3 how can I set the header for the service being invoked. We make parallel calls to 2 different business services. One of the invoked service requires header to be set and I am unable to figure out how it can be done. Below are snippet of the code and WSDL.
--- Login Operation start ---
<operation name="login">
<wsdlsoap:operation soapAction="blah"/>
<input name="loginRequest">
<wsdlsoap:body use="literal"/>
<wsdlsoap:header message="passport:loginHeader" part="hppwsHeaderElement" use="literal"/>
</input>
<output name="loginResponse">
<wsdlsoap:body use="literal"/>
</output>
<fault name="genericFaultException">
<wsdlsoap:fault name="genericFaultException" use="literal"/>
</fault>
</operation>
--- Login Operation end ---
--- hppwsHeader Element --
<complexType name="hppwsHeaderElement">
<sequence>
<element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="version" type="tns1:version"/>
<element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0" name="tx-id" type="tns1:tx-id"/>
<element maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="1" name="systemLangCode" type="xsd:string"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
--- LoginRequest Element ---
<xs:element name="loginRequestElement" type="s0:loginRequestType"/>
<xs:complexType name="loginRequestType">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="userId" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="password" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>

<xs:complexType name="loginResultType">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="sessionToken" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
In Oracle Workshop for WebLogic when I create a split-join .flow file while adding the invoke service call to login operation I am prompted to create the loginRequest and loginResponse variables. I can assign the appropriate expression to loginRequest.loginRequestElement prior to making the invoke call but then the backend business call fails because "systemLangCode" is not defined and set. Actual fault is
<ns1:genericFault xmlns:ns1="http://hppcbl.globalops.company.com/webservice">
<systemLangCode>en</systemLangCode>
<fault>
<ruleNumber>589</ruleNumber>
<fieldName>systemLangCode</fieldName>
<code>field.empty</code>
<desc>System language code is required.</desc>
<ftype>2</ftype>
</fault>
</ns1:genericFault>
I would really appreciate if someone could guide me on how to resolve this
Regards,

There is this $header variable which you should populate before calling the BS. What is the type of BS? If it is WSDL BS , Any Soap BS then above solution will work. I assume that yours is WSDL based BS and setting $header should resolve this issue.
AnyXML and Messaging type BS services requires that you create proper pay load (setting $header will not work).
There is also other actions Set Transport Headers {outbound request/inbound response} which can be used to set transport related headers but not soap headers.
