Help with Multiple Videos

bkushner wrote on 5/26/2010, 7:39 AM

I have about 100 ten second movie clips I want to combine into one movie then edit. At the beginning of each click is a loud audio pop.

Is there a way to delete 1or2 seconds of video every 10 seconds or some other way to deal with this versus manually deleting the first second of 100 clips?

Just use "Quickfade audio events"
You can specify the fade length in Preferences->Editing

Is there a tutorial showing how to use Quickfade audio events? Sorry I'm brand new to this program.

Can't seem to get this. I have two clips in the timeline, each 10 seconds. When vid one transitions to video 2 I get a loud pop.

I went to options and quickfade audio events and hit play and pop still there. In the preferences I've tried all lengths between 1 ms and 2000ms and still got the pop.

Once I pic quickfade in the option is there something else I need to do? How do you know whether it's on or not?

I'm sorry, I spoke too quickly. The quickfade option works for splitting or trimming events.

The problem you are experiencing occurs when audio is cut in the middle of a waveform and butts up against another. If you zoom in on the event edges you will see this.

There are a few ways to overcome this manually, but I will keep digging for an easier method for you.

How can a "transition" be a but cut? I thought, by definition, a "transition" included some overlap.

Brighterside,

The OP is a novice. His reference to a "transition" is nothing more than a butt of two events, not an overlap or crossfade. He is not there yet.
