Swap video but keep chapter marks?

Is it possible to replace the video file in a timeline without losing the Encore chapter marks? I do not mean dynamically linked video from Premiere or AE, but pre-rendered video imported into Encore CS6 and chapter markes created in Encore.
I am having an issue with Encore insisting on transcoding my .264 video file, so I want to replace it with a .m4v file, but I do not want to lose the chapter marks in doing so. It's annoying having to add them over and over again.

Hi,
I think that the "Replace Asset" function should work for you. Try right clicking on the asset in the project window, and select the new video.
Good luck
Daniel

How can I cut some video but keep audio running?

Hello
I once knew how to do this but forgot, and can't find it in any discussions or help files.
I have some shaky, crummy video but the audio in it is good.
I am editing the video, but I want to keep a running audio track from the original DV import.
"Paste over at playhead" is not the answer (unless I got it wrong).
I doubt this is the best way to do it but I am presently copying a clip; extracting the audio; placing that audio back into the timeline under the video; hacking up the video...and hoping the length is close to perfect. (Surely not the way to do it).
Tips? Thanks

David
You know, somehow your explanation made more sense than the iMovie Help file explanation. (Though it has some additional info that touches on what remains a bit of a problem for me).
In any case, thanks. I am using this technique right now. The difficulty that remains for me is how to deal with a short segment of video (to paste) over a 2 or 3 times longer segment of audio. The help info and my own experimentation show that the remaining space gets filled with black. Not very pretty or smooth.
Which leads me to my response to the other person who replied to my post...
*Glo H*
Yes. I am copying the clip so I can have needed video to fill the space as the audio plays. But I'm pretty sure this is not the smart, most efficient way.
(See David's reply).
I am continuing experimentation but am very much open to any other suggestions.
Thanks again.

How to connect jpeg to timeline clip replacing video but keeping audio

I put some video in the project timeline and now I would like to connect several still pictures (jpeg) at specific points in this video so that you hear the sound from the video but only see the still image.
Connecting my jpeg to the clip in the timeline is not a problem. Once connected, however, the still picture only covers a part of the video (i.e. only the center part of the video) during playback. The jpeg is superimposed on the center part of the video, but the sides of the video still show up as played.
What i would like is for the jpeg to completely superimpose the video in the clip, but be able to listen to the audio story told by the video in the background .
I tried resizing the jpeg to 16:9 aspect ration before importing it, but this made no difference. I have also considered doing the connecting in the other direction, i.e. to place the jpeg into the primary timeline and connect the audio part of the video to the jpeg. This might work, but I would rather not do this because it would require adjusting the size of many video clips.
I am a novice, so any help would be much appreciated.

Problem solved.
To a large extent the solution is illustrated here around minute 13:47 in this tutorial by Jerad Hill:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2F-Y6iMdtQg&feature=related
Here it is suggested that you double click in the picture and zoom in and out to get the picture adjusted to take up the whole screen. This you do by opening the inspector, on the video tab, and the transform tool. You use the scale slider to increase or decrease the scale of your photograph (or connected video clip) so that it fits the screen.
I will leave this discussion posted just in case it helps someone else.

Merging Video but Keeping Chapters in QT Pro

Hi all,
Pretty much as the title - I've got two .MP4 files with chapter markings, but when I merge them in QT Pro to save as one bigger file the chapter markings are lost. Is there a setting to retain them?

Yes, just hit the delete key on the track to remove the bad video and put the new video in (best to encode as mpeg-2 outside of doing this)
More details and videos on how to do this (in step 2 do not need the markers in the export and skip step 3 not needed, just take the FCP movie into Compressor)

Integrating still photos over video but keeping existing audio

I am currently trying to make a video that includes still photos. I have the video clips i want in my final project, as well as the photos. I am having a problem keeping the existing audio playing while my still photos are shown. I want to make it so you see photos while I am talking about them in the video clip, but then allows it to return to the video in the same duration...let me know what you think.

In iMovie/Preferences, make sure that Advanced Options are turned on.
Drag your photo from the Photo Browser and drop it on top of the video clip at the frame where you want it to start. A contextual menu will pop up. Choose "Cutaway".

Replacing part of video but keeping original audio

I have a clip whose audio I want to use but I need to replace the video--what is the best way to do this?
I deleted the video track so now I basically have a blank space to fill in. Do I just need to find another part of my shot that is the same duration & drop it in, or is there a better approach?

That will do the trick.
Switch Linking off and adjust the Track Destinations accordingly if you have trouble dropping in only the video.
FCE is non-destructive so your origianl captue stays in tact.

Quicktime in Yosemite not showing chapter marks?

Hi,
If I open my video (made in Final Cut Pro X), I don't see chapter marks in Yosemite using Quicktime.
If I open the same file in Quicktime on my Pc, chapter marks are showing perfectly.
If I open then video in VLC, chapter marks are shown perfectly.
Is Quicktime Yosemite broken?
Thanks

QuickTime Player 7 installs in the Applications/Utilities folder.

I want to create a "Play All" chapter marker that will play the video from start to finish in addition to the standard chapters I have-I guess I can auto start the DVD but would prefer a button-how and where would I put this "play all" marker??

I want to create a "Play All" chapter marker that will play the video from start to finish in addition to the standard chapters I have…I guess I can auto start the DVD but would prefer a button…how and where would I put this "play all" marker?? Thanks..

The start chapter button is a play the whole movie button regardless of how many other markers you have.
Once a DVD starts playing it continues to the end.
Chapters marker simply gives the viewer a place to start playback whether it be the start, middle or near the end.

HT4623 I lost my apps and iTunes after a restore, but it says there isn't enough space on the iPhone 4. How do I know how much space needs to be freed up? I keep deleting photos and videos, but I'm still getting the same message.

I did an iphone 4 software update. It then asked me to do a "restore" in order for me to be able to use the latest iTunes. I did a "restore" to "factory settings" (this was the only option listed) thinking I'd be able to sync later and get everything back and ended up losing all my purchased apps and iTunes. When I open iTunes, "Welcome to your new iphone" and it says I can re-do the "restore" and choose my lastest update. I assume this will give me back my apps and iTunes. When i choose to do this, it says there isn't enough space on the iPhone. How do I know how much space needs to be freed up? I keep deleting photos and videos from the phone, but I'm still getting the same message every time I re-try. I don't want to delete everything, but I don't know what to do...? Thanks!

Thanks but I think it has something to do with the 'restore'. in the newest iTunes 11, when I click on the tab "iphone", it redirects me to the "welcome to your new iphone" page and asks about doing a 'restore'. I already did a 'restore', but it went to the original factory settings and I want to 'restore' to my lastest back up as of April 12. When I choose that option, it says my iphone doesn't have enough space. I don't know how much I need to delete in order to make it work. I've deleted lots, but it only has 4.1 GB available. I'm not sure why this isn't enough to do a 'restore'. I don't want to delete all my photos and videos, but maybe I will have to?...7.7GB is used up for that. I can't sync or do ANYTHING...

Chapter marker and video ipod

My problem is the following:
I have made a mv4 movie using Imovie with chapter marker. I must admit that it is working perfectly on iTunes I can use the chapter marker on the top of the screen. But, I can't use the chapter marker on my Ipod.
It seems that my movie is not in the podcast folder but in the movie folder. Does it make any differences? And if yes how can I transfer my exported-for-ipod movie from the movie folder to the podcast folder (in the ipod).
Thank you very for your help.

Try using the "Save as..." option to place the chaptered H.264/AAC movie in a MOV file container.

Not as far as playback is concerned in iTunes or on the iPod.
And if yes how can I transfer my exported-for-ipod movie from the movie folder to the podcast folder (in the ipod).
An file created using the "Movie to iPod" export option is (supposedly) compatible with playback on an iPod. This process does not, however, create a Podcast. To turn you iPod compatible file into a Podcast, run it through an application like Podcast Maker. This will mark the file internals properly, upload the file to your server, and take care of XML/RSS requirements.

Hello:
I am very much a novice with Final Cut. I am trying to import some video files from my desktop but keep getting an error message that says, "File error 1 file recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown". The file type is .mov, 35MB, 1920 x 1080, Codec MPEG-2 video linear PCM timecode, color profile HD (1+1+1). Can someone help? Thanks, Paul

You can't import MPEG-2 files directly to FCP X.
Can you play this file in Quicktime Player? If so, then you can use the free program MPEG Streamclip to convert this to Quicktime. Use the ProRes codec.

How do you swap an image in the timeline but keep the in/out points and opacity settings?

Hi There,
We have a file which consists of a bunch of still images that get updated each year - the edits never change.
Is there an edit type that will allow us to swap the images our for new ones but keep the in/lout points and opacity changes? We've looked at all the edit types (overwrite, insert etc) but they don't seem to swap stuff out.
We had also been naming the new files the same as the old ones and reconnecting the media but this is now causing issues.
Any help or pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Ben

Click on the new image in the browser, so that it is selected, and the type Command + C to copy it.
Next, click on the clip in the timeline that you want to replace with the image you just copied (preserving your in and out points and opacity settings) and type Option + V to bring up the Paste Attributes Dialog Box.
In the Paste Attributes Dialog box, check the box for Contents and leave the remainder of options unchecked.
Uncheck the Scale Attribute Times option as well.
Click OK, and the image should now be replaced on the timeline with the in/out and opacity changes preserved.

Encore content was just loaded to my library and one of the menus will not allow me to drag a line from chapter marker to timeline? I connected the menu item in the properties menu and the video box is blank? Help

Can someone please help. In the flowchart, I am unable to drag a line from menu item to chapter markers. I get a circle with a line through it. I had to connect menu with chapter markers through the properties panel. The video asset for that chapter marker is not appearing in the box above the title of that menu?
