View a movie on the timeline

Hi everyone - I've placed a movie on the stage and have set
keyframes throughout the timeline so that the movie will resize
(effectively zoom in) in various places.
It's pretty difficult to do this without constantly switching
back and forth between the movie edit mode and the stage.
Is it possible to view frame 10 of the movie when the
playhead is on frame 10 and I'm looking at the stage?
Basically I'd like to be able to see frames of the movie
while I'm working on the stage.
Thanks

  • Is there a way to view all cameras in the timeline at once without creating a multicam sequence?

    Is there a way to view all cameras in the timeline at once without creating a multicam sequence?  Is there some kind of window I can open where they will show up?  I am scrubbing a timeline and I would like to see all the cameras at once.

    The multicam monitor only shows multiple clips at once when they are part of a mutlicam sequence. is there some reason you don't want to use them inside a multicam sequence for previewing?
    Here is a possible workaround, if your workflow circumstances will permit it:
    Apply a pip preset effect  to each clip in the timeline. Use UL, UR, LL, LR presets and up to four video tracks will display at once. If you need to see more than that, you'll need to tweak their position parameters by hand. When you're done previewing them all at once you just need to delete their effects from the Effects Controls panel.
    I know it's not that neat or quick, but it will let you see everything at once in the program monitor.

  • Why does Premiere Elements 12 not react, by trying to start movie over the timeline?

    I am using Premiere 12 Elements. Sometimes it happens, today again, that Premiere does not react anymore. It does not crash, I can add Effects oder cut the film, but I can not start the movie on the timeline.
    I tried to empty the cache and sometime it helps. But it can be, that it was only accedentely, that it worked then.
    My Computerconfig:
    Intel I7 Prozessor, 8 GB RAM, 2 Gigabyte HD, Win 8.1 64 bit, AMD Radeon HD5700
    I am happy for every answer, that helps.
    Thank you

    Are you working from the 12.1 Update of 12? If not, please do so using an opened project's Help Menu/Update.
    I have the actual Update on the Computer. After I installed it about two month ago, I updated it over th Updatebutton and Premiere says to me, that I have the latest Version. My Version is 12.1 (620140 225.12.1.620828).
    What is the size of the project when the Timeline playback is not possible? Is this event associated with any particular
    added effect, title creation, or video or audio transition placement?
    What do you mean with the size of the project? If you mean the size of the videoscreensize, I can give the information, that it is a Full HD Video.
    If you mean the size of the Projectdata, it is 994 Kb.
    In this project a keymask (4 points) is used, that a video from another track is visible with the mainvideo on Track one. And there are two faders in the video, thats all. No titles and so on.
    Where are the Scratch Disks directed and how much free hard drive space is at that location?
    Did you install the program to the default Local Disk C?
    Do you mean with Scratchdisks the path to the Cache? If so, I tried different pathes. On both Disks are 700 GB free space, butit did not make a difference. I emptied the cache, schanged the pathes, emptied again, but the result was the same. No reaction.
    I installed Premiere into the default given path during the installation. And that was c:\Program Files (x86).
    Video card/graphics card up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
    For Device Manager/Display Adapters, is AMD Radeon HD5700 the only listing?
    Yes, the Videocard is up tp date, I compared my driver Version with the Version on the Website. It is the same . And there is only one Graphic Display in the Device Manager.
    When this event happens, how are you getting out of it so that you can move on in that opened project?
    I can use the program normal anyway. I can do everything I like, but I can not start the Video over the timeline. Even if I stop the program by leaving it over the regular menu, and doing a restart of the whole computer, the result is the same. The software runs, it loads all the sourcefiles, they are placed on the tmeline and I can do everthing, but not start the video on the timeline.

  • When I import a Quick Time movie into the timeline using Final Cut Express, why does it need rendering?

    when I import a Quick Time movie into the timeline using Final Cut Express, why does it need rendering?

    Because your clip properties do not match your sequence settings.
    It will help a lot if you provide details ...
    FCE Easy Setup
    Sequence settings (vid rate, frame size, compressor)
    Source of your clips (camcorder make/model, etc)
    Clip properties (vid rate, frame size, compressor)

  • Photoshop isn't letting me add an .mov to the timeline.

    I was editing an .mov file in Photoshop (I don't have sufficient OS for AfterEffects). All was going well, so saved the projects as a .psd file (which I'd learned from an online tutorial and which had never given me problems before) and took a break. When I tried to reopen it, the video won't play and there's a yellow exclamation mark next to the thumbnail in the layers palette. I tried opening a new file and adding the original .mov to the timeline, but got the message "Could not complete request because DynamicLink Media Server not available." Again, everything was going fine this morning. Any ideas please?

    Hi there, because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Photoshop General Discussion forum, where you'll get more specialized help.
    To help others help you, please read through this article and provide any additional relevant details.

  • ITunes cannot play my rented movie. The timeline stops and no error message pop up.

    I rented two movies from iTunes store yesterday. It's still valid. But my iTunes cannot play it. After I click on the 'play' button, the timeline does no move forward and the screen remains in black. No error message pops up. What's wrong with this iTunes player??

    It's always the case because iCloud is active all the time and if the device indicated Backup to iCloud an your computer indicated Backup to Computer, you may run into problem.
    But this can never be a problem. When you select "Back up to computer" and press apply, iTunes "updates files" on the iphone. I'm not an engineer and my best guess is that by updating the files iTunes changes the device's settings to point to "Backup to Computer".
    [Earlier: The sync button used to be visible only after the files were updated. Now, when "Back up to Computer" is selected and we press apply, iTunes indicates that its updating files but the option then shifts back to "Back up to iCloud"]
    Incidentally, I was playing around with this and I clicked on encrypt local back and set a password and iTunes accepted that and updated the backup on my computer. This is pretty wierd considering its not accepting "Backup to computer" otherwise.

    I wonder how you were able to do that without turning off iCloud Backup on your device.
    I guess the older versions of itunes supported that. This problem cropped up after updating to 10.6.0.4

    iTunes 'open when this iPhone is connected' works only when you connect using USB cable.
    With Sync over wifi enabled iTunes used to open automatically for me whenever my iPhone logged onto the wifi network. Which was a very useful feature for me. I'm extremely disappointed that this is not working now.

  • How can I get real time updates in multiple views when scrubbing through the timeline?

    I am using After Effects CS 5.5 on Windows 7. When I use the mouse to click / drag / scroll through the timeline, one view updates in real time, this is great! If I open a second view, it only updates that view when I finish scrolling.
    I would like to be able to scroll back and forth through the timeline, and have two different compositions update in real time (live update)?
    Is this possible?
    Thank you!

    The long answer is: No. It's not even a performance issue, it's how AE evaluates time, since time is fluid and can be mangled in a million ways from time-remapping to expressions...

  • Can't view Quicktime Movies on the web

    this is what im trying to view
    http://www.solent.ac.uk/360/hamwic_bedroom.html
    it worked a while back but not now, now i get the light blue logo with the question mark
    cant change file types in preferences they are not greyed out they dont even show as a list, it says programatically set
    i found qtp whatever it was in regedit changed everything to full control
    moved quicktime .xml file onto desktop from apple computer folder
    uninstalled and installed quicktime a few times
    tried with ie8 google chrome and cometbird
    no luck
    quicktime is terrible, i dont know why so many things on the web need it to play, they may as well ask notepad to open the files.
    cheers

    I'm having the exact same problem... Don't know when but IE and Firefox are refusing to play quicktime files. I can run the quicktime player and play MP3 and MOV files (which is what I normally do) but nothing is playing from the browser.
    I've tried pretty much everything I can think of... in the end, QuickTime is not showing up under Set Default Programs or Set Program Associations (via QuickTime Preferences->Browser->MIME Settings or File Types).
    I can install QT-Lite, and everything works for the browser... except now I don't have a standalone player that plays MP3 and MOV files because I cannot have QT-Lite installed alongside QuickTime.
    Please advise.
    Thanks,
    Jason

  • Access properties of a movie on the timeline

    I am trying to buil a project which contains two movie clips and I need to access the properties of clipA from within timeline of clipB.
    if the parent property specifes a path to display objects that are above the current display object in the display list hierarchy, which property points to objects that are bellow ?
    I´m sure this must be easy to answer. I just can´t seem to figure it out.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    I'm not sure how to interpret your above/below description, but to access clipA properties from within clipB, assuming they share the same parent timeline...
    AS2:  _parent.clipA.property
    AS3:  MovieClip(this.parent).clipA.property

  • View iphone movies on the web

    I have several short movies taken with my iPhone that I would like to post on my company website. Please advise the most direct (easiest, quickest) way to do that. Thanks in advance.

    It depends on the supported video format of your website for most of the time. I think the best way is to convert your videos to MP4/FLV with the video converter since these two are the widest supported video format on the web. The process would be very fast and really convenient. You can try. the conversion should be three steps: add file->choose the output format->convert
    Hope it would help ~

  • How do I go about viewing audio wavelengths in the timeline?

  • HT1657 I rented a movie from the iTunes Store, downloading to my iPhone 5, but after it downloaded, it's completely disappeared from my iPhone.  I've been charged for the rental and when I go to rent it again, it says that I've already rented it

    Hi - I rented a movie from iTunes and was charged for the rental.  It downloaded to my iPhone 5 over wi-fi as usual, but on completion of the download, it then didn't appear in my movies app on the iphone.  I can't find it either on iTunes in my account on my computer.  But iTunes seems to think that I've already downloaded it, but I can't find it anywhere or watch it.  Help!  I've downloaded and watch plenty of movies before - this is a first.  I've tried re-renting it, but it tells me that I've already rented it and if I download it again, I'll be charged a second time.
    Help - anyone out there had the same problem or better still, have a solution????

    I had the same issue with my apple tv 3rd generation. I rented Sinister and selected the "rent and watch now" option. Half way through the movie I accidentally pressed the menu button. When I looked for the rented movie on my apple tv I could not find it. Not even above the movie pannel where "purchased" and "top movies" comes up on the main menu. the apple tv suggests to go to settings>downloads but I don't have that option. I did go to settings> itunes store> check rentals but that didnt work either. It took too long to even check. Thank you because this SOLUTION worked great.
    SOLUTION: How to reset apple tv 3 3rd generation to view rented movies:on the apple tv remote: press and hold "menu" to go to the main menu. Select SETTINGS> GENERAL >RESET >RESET ALL SETTINGS. After the apple tv resets, input all your information again and your rented movies should be visible when you cruise above the "movies" section. THANK YOU!!
    Apple needs to solve this issue because honestly it took me 3 hours and a half to watch a movie that only lasted 2 BECAUSE I wast trying to solve the issue, reseting and all. blahh.

  • Multicam Clips in the Timeline and Image Stabilization

    I've got a multicam clip in my timeline that I would like to use image stabilization on. What I'd like to do is:
    double click on the clip which brings up the angle editor with the range and angle selected.
    press cmd-B to blade the clip
    turn on image stabilization.
    Unfortunately, step one doesn't work. I'm forced to open up the angle editor and manually skim and search for the desired angle and time range. It would be okay if the playhead in the angle editor was slaved to the one in the timeline. Then when you went into the angle editor you'd be right at the desired source material, but no, the two seem to be independant of each other. It makes performing the task much slower and more tedious. So much so I am convinced more experienced users are going to know a quicker way to do it.
    So, does anyone know an easier work-around for this?

    Thank you Tom and Luis, but I'm not with any of this. I can add a clip to the timeline or insert a clip into it via the "arrow tools". If I attempt to shorten the clip IN the timeline there is a blank space representing the amount trimmed from the clip.
    I want the next clip along to that I've trimmed to automatically move along the timeline albeit shortening the total project duration.
    Pressing "A" on the keyboard doesn't achieve this.
    I simply click on the clip in the timeline  to highlight it with the yellow margin. I then click on one "edge" with the arrows symbol and drag the edge inwards. This then leaves the space I do not want.
    As for "Preferences" when I click this under "Final Cut Pro" i see nothing either relevant to this problem or that I could trash.

  • How get multiclips to stay in viewer when playing/editing in timeline?

    I just started editing in multiclip. I can get my 3 multiclip clips to show in the Viewer on a 4-up display, but when I play the Timeline, the Viewer jumps to full frame active view. I've set the RT at Multiclip Playback, set the Open option on the Playhead Sync menu, and set Multi-clip 4-up Display. What am I doing wrong or missing?
    How can I get the multiclips 4-up display to stay in the Viewer when I play the Timeline?

    There are 2 things to check.
    1. Has your timeline been rendered? I ask this because I was given a 3 camera multiclip project from another editor here, and with all of my settings checked, I still couldn't get the multiclips to show on my external when playing back. Once playback was stopped or the playhead scrubbed, then the 4-up display would return. Just for kicks, I cleared his render cache and bingo, 4-up returned on playback.
    2. In the View menu, is "Show Multiclip Angles" checked? (It's at the very bottom of the menu).

  • Shorten Clips In The Timeline And Shorten The Project Duration

    When I shorten a clip in the timeline by dragging on one end a blank space appears. I know this is in order to keep the project the same duration but I do not want this. I am happen for the project duration to reduce in accordance with my timeline clip editing, without any blank spaces appearing.
    How do I achieve this noting that this seems to be a recent default situation, whether I use FCPX 10.09 or 10.01.01.
