  • extracting a segment from a clip

    Posted by Agnese on May 13, 2005 at 9:13 pm

    Hello,
    I’m trying to extract a segment from the middle of a clip in the Program view monitor.
    I’ve inserted the In and Out points and the markers but when I press the Extract button nothing happens on the Timeline. Basically by clicking the Extract button in the Program view monitor I’m supposed to have two different clip segments on the Timeline as a result of the Extraction… but whatever action I take in the Program view monitor doesn’t affect the Timeline at all…
    I’m very new to this program and I’m pretty sure it’s just something very simple that I’m overlooking but it’s driving me crazy.
    Any help you guys can be will be greatly appreciated.
    Regards,

    I’m trying to extract a segment from the middle of a clip in the Program view monitor window by clicking the Extract button in the same window… but again nothing happens on the Timeline.

    Unfortunately you would need to razor the in and out points to create a self-standing clip for the section of that clip you want to remove.

    “Extract” in PPro terms at the present time is for a whole clip…not a chunk of a clip. Once you would razor the cut points, PPro sees the section you want to extract as a separate clip and it will go away for you.
