How to Join or heal files in timeline? not group

Will Dearborn wrote on 8/28/2015, 8:27 PM

I'm editing GH4 files, and the camera breaks up long clips about every 6-10 minutes depending on if I record 4k or 1080p. The problem I've run into is that if I want to crop the video or color correct, I have to save a preset and then use that preset over and over and over again on the segmented clips even though it might just be one 30min clip. There's a split tool in movie studio platinum 13 but I don't see a Join or heal tool which makes no sense. Am I just missing it or is there no way to join or heal multiple clips that really should be one longer clip to be fx'ed or cropped?

If there is not a join or heal tool, could one please be added in a near to be released update please?

Thank you for your time.

It looks like your question is being addressed on the Pro forum.

What comes to mind is to make your changes to the first event, copy it, select events to end then paste event attributes to the rest.

If all of the clips are on a video track by themselves, could you not apply the FX to the track itself, using the Track FX?

You should be able to record at least 29 minute videos even in 4K, I'd do a factory reset on your Gh4.
