Trimming multiple transitions simultaneously.

Didn't we use to be able to trim multiple transitions simultaneously? For instance, having a cross dissolve on a clip on video track 1 as well as on audio track 1. Selecting both clips and dragging to trim the transition which adjusts both video and audio together. Also if there was video on tracks 1-3 and you wanted to trim all the transitions the same.
Now it seems that you have to click and drag each individually. I always hated that final cut operated like that and now premiere?

Logical would be if more than one item is selected then the all are manipulated. Also efficient.
A video dissolve doesn't infer an audio cross mix. It's very common at the end of a segment to fade to black. Fading the audio at this time is also a good choice. If you added a default 1 second dissolve to the video and also to the linked audio and then decided to increase the transition duration of both at the same time you can't. Move one then the other. Inefficient.
Perhaps a better example would be when you have two mono channels linked and add a cross fade transition to both. You're likely want to adjust them the same. Moving one the. Having to move the another to match is very wrong.
I've never noticed it being an issue before which is why I believe there has been a change. I'm hoping someone will have a solution.

  • Change multiple transitions simultaneously

    How would I change transitions for multiple text or highlight boxes simultaneously?

    I found that if I higlight multiple items that were duplicated (such as multiple highlight boxes), then I can go to edit > properties.  Any changes made there apply to all highlight boxes.  This doesn't work with items that are different, such as selecting a text box and a bmp.
    BTW - i have captivate 4.0.

  • How to apply Time Remap to multiple clips simultaneously

    Quite often after trimming many different clips for a wedding video I will then want the majority of them slowed down to a 50% speed. I know how to apply the Time Remap Speed % change in the Motion Tab, but have yet to figure out how to make the change to multiple clips simultaneously.
    Thanks for your help!

    You can apply a speed change from one clip to multiple clips by copying the first one, then pasting attributes (option + V, then select speed from the list) onto as many clips as you have selected.
    Just be aware that this will ripple your timeline by extending all of your clips. FCP keeps the original out point of the source clip, not the out point of each cut on the T/L.

  • Bulk trim multiple clips

    Hi,
    My workflow is quite straight forward: log and transfer AVCHD material into FCP 7 by setting in- and out points; then selet all clips and put them on in the sequence (no need to change the order).
    I'm looking for a way to trim multiple clips in one batch. With log and transfer I selected my raw (about 200 clips) material and I need lets say about 10 frames on both sites of all clips to set cross dissolves between clips on my sequence.
    By doing so I've a default trim of 10 frames on both sites of each clip which a can change for particular clips if needed. I would save me quite some time since right now I trim all clips individually
    Any tips?

    If you logged and transferred the clips using the actual timecode you wanted to use, and then told FCP to add 10 second handles, it would have set in and out points where you wanted them, the handles in tact, so you could add your transitions. Something to think about for the future.
    As far as your current issue goes, I can offer only a workaround solution that will be faster than setting in and out points for every clip.
    Start with your playhead at the beginning of the timeline.
    1. Put 20 seconds of slug in the viewer.
    2. Add a track to the top of your sequence, and two audio tracks to the bottom.
    3. Set the source/destination to the blank tracks (left side of the Timeline window - v1 connected to V2, and a1, a2 to A3, A4 for example).
    4. Press the down arrow to move to the next edit point.
    5. Press F10 to perform an overwrite edit. (Or whatever keystroke you've programmed to be overwrite edit.)
    6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until you have your slug at every edit point.
    7. Press T once to switch to the "select track forward tool".
    8. Click to the left of the fist slug, on the track that they lie.
    9. Type -10. (that's "minus, ten, period") and press return. (This will move all of the slug backwards 10 seconds - don't forget the period.)
    10. Shift drag the slug down into the track you want to trim.
    11. Press delete (to remove the slug, leaving track gaps between the trimmed clips).
    12. Put your playhead at the beginning of the sequence, then select all of the clips in the timeline and drag them to the CANVAS WINDOW - drop them on the INSERT drop zone.
    13. Delete everything after the last intended track in your timeline.
    It seems like a lot of steps, but that's just because I'm trying to be as detailed as possible. It's actually a very fast way to do it.
    Other than that, I don't know of a way to bulk-set in/out points.

  • Multiple Transitions for One Selection?

    This is the flip side to the threads on how to apply a transition to multiple edits simultaneously -- and a search of the manual, this forum, and some Googling has yet to find an answer.
    I need to apply/combine two different video transitions to the same edit. Anyone know of a workflow and/or workaround that could achieve this?
    Specifically, I want to create a transition which combines the Zoom transition from the 3D Simulation effects folder, with the Dither Dissolve from the Dissolve folder. The effect I want to achieve is to have the outgoing clip shrink away to reveal the incoming clip, and, at the same time (while that outgoing clip is shrinking away), to ALSO have it be dither dissolving into the new, incoming clip.
    So far the closest I can get is to put the incoming clip on a separate, overlapping video track and apply the dither dissolve to its head, while immediately below it (on V1), I apply the Zoom to the tail of the outgoing shot. But this doesn't get the exact effect I want, since the dithering affects the full frame of the new incoming shot, whereas what I want is for the dither dissolve to only be happening within the ever-shrinking frame of the outgoing clip.
    Does that make sense? And if it does, am I S.O.L. -- or just in for a whole lot more trouble than this effect is worth?

    I apply the Zoom to the tail of the outgoing shot. But this doesn't get the exact effect I want, since the dithering affects the full frame of the new incoming shot, whereas what I want is for the dither dissolve to only be happening within the ever-shrinking frame of the outgoing clip. < </div>
    (I'm not at my FCP machine at the moment, can't test it.) Because these are transitions, you may not be able to apply them like you can filters; they must be applied between two overlapping clips. That could make this a bit difficult.
    I suggest you copy and place the outgoing and incoming shots in separate sequences because you're going to render them and export them separately as movies.
    Apply the zoom to the outgoing shot. Render and export. Find the clip and import it. REplace it in the original sequence and now apply your dither transition between the zoom movie and the incoming clip.
    The reason you want both clips in separate sequences is so you can play around with other effects. You could nest these, too. But rendering them will lock the media. Just be sure to export a self-contained movie and do not attempt to import the render file.
    Does that make sense? And if it does, am I S.O.L. -- or just in for a whole lot more trouble than this effect is worth? < </div>
    It's really hard to try to describe these things in these little posties. I have no confidence that I understand exactly what you're hoping to do and none that I've offered a possible solution. But please let us know how you make out.

  • Wanting to use multiple transitions on 1 slideshow?

    I want to make a slideshow for graduation party. This will be played continuously. I want to incorporate different transitions on one. I've read that you can to do it if you use slideshow from iphoto. I can not seem to get past the files when I click on media, photo. Slideshows don't show up. This is my first attempt with wanting to use multiple transitions. I've made DVD's with chapters. Plus, I never have used it as continues play. Any help and ideas would be a welcome.
    Thank you,
    Lisa

    In iPhoto, put your photos into an album. Then, open your album to display the photos that you put in it. Select all the photos. At the bottom of the album display window, there will be an icon called Slideshow. Click on it, and the photos that you selected will be placed into a slide show with a separate icon in the display panel. In the slideshow transition settings, select Random. That will play the available transitions at random.
    If you want more flexibility than iPhoto's "Random" setting will give you, you will need to create your slide show in iMovie where you can manually insert any of iMovie's transitions. Then drag your iMovie project icon (the one with the star on it) into the window of your iDVD project.

  • Start multiple domains simultaneously on 1 Weblogic server installation?

    Is it okay to start and run multiple domains simultaneously. Better yet, when having multiple domains on 1 WLS server, should each domain have a different port number in order to be run simultaneously?
    Here's my scenario - I installed Oracle Business Intellgence, which by default installs and configures WLS server for certain Business Intelligence applications (BI Publisher). This instance was running fine and good and still is.
    Then I had another application, Oracle Data Integrator, which has a Console piece that requires a domain on WLS. So instead of modifying the existing domain for Oracle Business Intelligence, I created a new domain via the Configuration Wizard and selected those components for Oracle Data Integrator.
    therefore current domains:
    ...\domains\bifoundation_domain --> installed automatically as part of Oracle Business Intelligence
    ...\domains\odi11g --> I created this domain after I
    Now I have 2 domains under 1 WLS Server (windows 7 64bit), but if I startWeblogic.cmd for the bifoundation_domain, and I startWeblogic.cmd for the odi11g...then only the components for the bifoundation_domain become available via the WLS Console.
    Questions:
    - Can I run both domains simultaneously?
    - Should I have modified the bifoundation_domain to include Oracle Data Integrator component; therefore only having 1 domain but having everything run under that domain?
    - Does the Port for each domain matter? both bifounddation_domain and odi11g domain use ports 7001
    Are there any other considerations? Thanks much.

    Hi,
    It is perfectly OK to run multiple domains on a single Weblogic server installation. Only constraint would be you have enough capacity available on your server to start multiple instances.
    Things to note is, if your domain1 is running on listen address : port { localhost : 7001 } then your other domain should be configured on a different port say {localhost : 8001 }. If you want both domain to run on same port then go for virtual IP's to be plumbed on your physical network interface and configure as,
    domain1 - { ip1 : 7001 }
    domain2 - { ip2 : 7001 }
    this way you will can access both domain admin console on same port.
    Remember, Weblogic resources cannot be shared between domain, however a single nodemanager will be enough to monitor both the domains.
    * rank it if answer is helpful :) *
    Thanks,

  • How do I send mail to multiple groups simultaneously in Mavericks?

    Recently updated to Mavericks, and I used to be able to just add a contact group to the BCC field.  I can still add a contact group to the BCC field, as I have searched up till this point, but my issue is adding multiple groups into these fields.  I thought a solution might be to make one huge group, but I use different groups for different things constantly, and combine and alter them continuously.
    How on earth is it that I can no longer email multiple groups simultaneously?  There has to be something I'm missing!!

    I did this and the recipient gets an email From: Me and To: Me.
    If you are sending email to multiple recipients by bcc, the recipients should not be able to see the other recipients you are sending the mail to.  However, they will see who the email is from which is you!
    What is confusing me is how are your recipients getting your email if it's not addressed to them but to yourself?
    Have you tried rebuilding Mail?
    Which version of OS & Mail are you using?  Asking because your system profile is showing you are using Snow Leopard yet, you posted in the ML forum.

  • Timeline tip: did you know you can smooth multiple transitions at once?

    Yes, you can :-)
    Steps:
    1. In the Timelines panel, control/shift click the transitions you care about.
    2. Click the arrow to the right of the "Smooth Transitions" button to show the Smooth Transition Options dialog. Adjust options in this dialag as you desire.
    3. Click the "Smooth Transitions" button in the Timeline.
    All the selected transitions will be smooth according to your options
    Tips:
    - By default, smoothing will not change effects you have manually edited or added. To make the timeline clear out customizations you have made and just create new smooth effects, then check the "overwrite existing effects" option in the Smooth Transition Options dialog
    - The "Fade Out - Move - Fade In" option in the Smooth Transition Options dialog gives you a common transitions design pattern. All objects disappearing from a state will fade out first, followed by any objects that move/resize/rotate, followed by objects that fade in to the new state. An example of where to use this is in a collapsible panel that hides and shows content. You don't want the panel to resize and collapse before its contents have faded out first. This option gives you that effect.

    Hi Steve - if you are asking whether it is possible to change the duration of a number of transitions simultaneously as a group, then the answer is 'Yes'. You simply select them all (Command+Click), and in the Transitions Pane adjust the duration and hit 'Update'.
    It is not possible to adjust the length of movie clips in that way, although it is of course possible to adjust the duration of a batch of photographs.
    Has that answered your question?

  • Adobe Acrobat pro 9.4.6 crashes when opening multiple files simultaneously.

    We have Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 which has been updated to version 9.4.6. we had this problem when the 9.4.5 update was applied also. It is now crashing when we try to open multiple files simultaneously.
    Yesterday, I narrowed down the problem to 6 plugins:
    IA32
    ADBC
    eBook
    EScript
    HLS
    PPKLite
    SaveAsRTS
    However, we discovered that that Comments and markup tool bars weren't loading. So I did a repair install on it.
    Now those plugins from yesterday work and Acroform.api is causing it to crash when opening multiple files.
    I did try other suggestion that involved using Icacls/cacls on dll files to no avail.
    It is running on XP SP3 fully updated with plenty of RAM and HDD space.
    Is there a way to fix this without reinstalling?

    I am not sure what's causing this problem on your machine because everything's working fine for me.
    What is the version of Acroform.api on your machine now.
    Do a Repair after deleting this file and see if it works.
    Enable Windows MSI logging (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314852) before you do a repair, upload that log to some file sharing server, and paste its link here.

  • Is it possible to copy the same database multiple times simultaneously?

    This is the setup of my environment.
    I have a 'master' database that contains the full schema plus some pre-populated data such as default settings. When database schema changes are made, they get made to the master database. When a new customer signs up for the service, I make a copy of this
    master database (using SMO) that will now be the database containing all of the customer's information. The database is rather large, and the copy operation can take a couple minutes.
    Everything works fine as expected, unless I try to provision two new customers at the same time. It appears that Azure only allows for one DB copy operation at a time. Is there a way to allow for copying the same database multiple times simultaneously?
    Thanks for you input. I understand that this is likely not the optimal setup, and that there is many better ways of doing this, but I am somewhat heavily invested in the current process and I would like to find out how to make it work if I can.

    BTW, you can do this programatically by using PowerShell (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee210569.aspx), SqlPackage (http://www.benday.com/2012/12/18/deploy-a-sql-server-database-projects-dacpac-with-sqlpackage-exe/)

  • In imovie can you trim multiple clips at a time?  Also, can you randomly sort the photos?

    In imovie can you trim multiple clips at a time?  Also, can you randomly sort the photos?

    Can I do all at once or 1 at a time? It seems to only allow 1 at a time.
    No. But you can do one, copy its settings, then seclect the rest and "Paste Audio Settings" to all of them all at once in a project.

  • Multiple Transitions 'End-at-Cut' shortcut?

    I am trying to find a way to apply a cross dissolve that ends at the cut to multiple cuts.
    i realize that this can be achieved by either placing it there in the first place, or dragging the transition after it has been placed. however, i have many transitions to place, and i am trying to find a time saver.
    can this be achieved with a customized transition preset? can this placement be set as the default transition placement? can multiple transitions be moved at the same time?
    any thoughts?
    thanks.
    -wolv

    Thanks for the responses.
    I have many cuts in my timelines, i usually select them all and apply the default transition.
    i would then like to use the 'go to next clip' keyboard shortcut and doublecheck for any last minute color correction, but it lands me smack in the middle of the dissolve.
    so i usually just manually click on the middle of each clip and thats a bit of a hassle. oh well.
    thanks though.

  • Question about multiple transitions in imovie6

    Hi all.......I am in the process of converting old mini DV tapes to DVD. What I would like to do is to put a transition between each clip. This is no problem to do manually of course, you just drag the particular transition between 2 clips.
    But this becomes cumbersome with a video that will have 30-40 clips. I have been looking for an option to allow the program to just place multiple transitions automatically, where the programs not only places the transitions but also varies them also. I can't find this option within I movie.
    I have used this opition in Roxio products.
    Do I have any options for what I am referring to? A I missing something?

    Sorry but there is no such option in iMovie nor iDVD6. Needs to be done manually as you stated above.
    You may also want to send apple some feedback (see iMovie Feedback) on this transition request where the application not only places the transitions but also varies them for all imported clips directly to the timeline. It just might be something apple can do for future versions via a dialog box check mark under preferences for iMovie. Good luck and great idea by the way!
