Removing empty time spaces in timeline

[John Lenihan]

To John, Aleksy, and Sam,

Almost, but not yet.

1. Ultimate S Pro auditor, Production Assistant, and the script that Sam just sent all work the same. It removes all the gaps on each track, one track at a time.

2. The Vegaseur auditor is closest, it generates a list and if you work it backwords, selecting in the timeline, pressing delete, it finds only those spots where there is nothing in any track.

3. Here is a sample clip I made and uploaded. IF I uploaded it correctly.

I saw a video on Adobe After Effects there was a keyboard command, like Ctrl something Home and it moved to the beginning and eliminated gasp with one key command and moved the whole project “home” eliminating the gap in the beginning.

I wonder if Sony Vegas has a similar key command???

No, you would need a script to do this.

I think in Ulead Media Studio it was Edit / Find Gaps and it would list all the gaps. Or you could delete them all (very useful if your editing skills are low/non-existent like mine). A lot of people rubbished MediaStudio, oh how I wish they didn’t abandon it 🙂

Hello, speaking of timelines is there an ultimate guide for timelines, time code for sync purposes in vegas??

thank you

[John Lenihan]

Jesus,
Your question could mean one of several things. I will address the meaning I think you have.

If you have multiple clips from one camera, or from more than two cameras, you can sync them using timecode.

The clips must have the timecodes in them to begin with.

It is a sneaky procedure, I will elaborate, if this is what your question is.

John
