    i have a 60 min movie clip and i want to divide in to 12 5 mins clips. i need to do this on a regular basis . is there a tool that can do this easily? i know AE could be made to do this … but is there any other tool that could do this?

    i forgot to mention i am hoping to find something that would create this automatically. i could just give it a single comand and it will render the 1 big clip in 12 parts.. as i go and have me a burger!

    ProCoder and Cleaner as well as other, even more expensive tools have Batch processing/ watch folders. Set up once, use forever. Other than that, chopping it up in AE is not too much trouble, I think. After all, it’s just 12 clips.

    ya this is how i would do it too if i were to use AE. i just wanted to know if there was any other non linear editing system that better design to do this very task.
    thanks for thr reply

    Hi,

    There is an easier way to do this.

    -Make sure you exactly know how much MBs the codec you are using will take for let say a min. (Render 30s for a test)
    -Once you know how large a min would be, you could then make the math to find out how large a single part of your comp should be.

    -Now add your comp to the render queue, hit Ctrl+Alt+; to open the prefs window and in the Output prefs check the “Segment Movie Files At” and type in the amount of MBs your clip should have once five divides the entire comp.

    It should work.

    Salut.
    Serge
