Adding in and out to 150 pictures
Posted by Joe Horne on December 12, 2008 at 1:06 pmI have about 150 pictures that I am stringing together in the timeline. I want each picture to come into the Viewer with in and out points that mark it for lasting .5 seconds. What is the best way to apply this across the board without doing each one manually?
With appreciation,
Joe

December 12, 2008 at 5:05 pmI have tried changing the preferences, however, it doesn’t accept what I enter. Or it puts a different number in. This seems odd, no?
The XML app looks cool but I have not gotten it to work successfully yet.
Thanks for the suggestions. Any other ideas?

I’m not at my FCP machine to test this but it sounds reasonable. Removing the gaps between them will tedious!

No – it needn’t be. Just move the last clip up to V2, select the empty area in V2 to the left of the last clip, and hold down delete. It will error out once all of the gaps have been removed. Voila!
I still agree that the still duration is the easiest way to do this though. 6 of one…
