Is there a way to make a new video file every 15 min of the video? Like a preset or somthing?

What render? Why not razor? I suggest you start reading the manual before trying to use a (semi)pro application or get some schooling on NLE.

If the video is mpeg, you can use mepg2cut or something like that, no render required, just cut.

I have no experience with this splitter software, but the mpeg2cut works for mpeg like a charm.

Harm, please try to read and understand a question before answering in this way. Or do not answer at all.

Nate needs to render more than one video file from a timeline. Since Premiere lacks any kind of batch rendering, this is IMHO not possible in Premiere.

Perry’s solution may be the easiest. There are lots of splitters/joiners like this on the web, sadly most of them are paid shareware. You could use the excellent and free VirtualDub, but IIRC it cannot split file into several pieces, only two at a time.

Hi Jiri/Nate,

As a cow leader for the last 8 months or so I’ve got say that we not only get an email about every premiere pro related question, everyone’s responses – we are happy to help, for free with genuine questions or work arounds.
We do get frustrated at times about the bombardment (esp lately) of questions where the “help” in the program will give your answer, a quick search on the net, or even reading the book, provided the people asking question actually have legitimate versions of software.

How many editors does it take to change a light bulb?

One workaround is to drop the long video file on the timeline. Every 15min delete one frame so you have a series of several 15min clips in the sequence. Then use the project manager to create a new trimmed project. This will create a new project w/ individual video clips that you can rename and do with as you please. You can even use the “Include Handles” option to replace the frames you take out if needed.

If Windows Media Video is your target, export the entire timeline as .wmv, then open the .wmv file in Windows Media Encoder’s (9) File Editor where you can easily set in/out points and “save as” each segment. There is no rerendering, just a minute to create new shorter file.

Hi Jon, I know this and am grateful for your work and Harm’s expert help too. I think I know Premiere relatively well and IMHO Nate’s question was very legitimate and not obvious. I just didn’t like Harm’s unneccessarily rude answer.

Dave, that is a very interesting tip, thanks!

[Nate Mcgarrahan]

Thanks for sticking up for me Jiri. 😀

Maybe if your question had been stated more clearly, understandable, you would not have gotten this reaction.

I would use the razor tool and create your saperate videos on 1 timeline.
When you need to export just drag the “work area” to the specific clip. Then in the media encoder insted of whole sequence, change it to work area, and it will only render what is in the work area.

Hope this helps.
