Jeydv, worked like a DREAM.

Thanks, I played with the marker spacing in script 1, and then rendered at the markers script 2. It is wonderful. Now I will try to 'randomize' the order with the wedding script below. It usually is, 'not enough time, to much to do, ' but now I own the time. Thanks again. John.

Good eh!

Now, if you've got a piece of music running under the video, sit there and "tap" the "M"arker key ON THE BEAT - yeah? You now have markers to sprinkle your Stills to the place where you want the Stills to be. AND even get a dissolve on the beat too!

Grazie

J_Mac,

Glad it worked out for you. From the looks of things, the "PutInFirstTrackEnd.js" script below doesn't truly randomize, it just moves the selected events to the top track. To get true randomization, you could try the Randomize Wizard in Excalibur.

Well, what I mean "randomly" there is that you choose the clips randomly, and the script does the rest.

Ah, now I understand. You just have to pick a few, run it, pick a few more, run it again, ...

I can make them totally random, but then there are nothing left for my creativity, I don't like the idea of letting the machine arrange all the clips for me.
