shorten a bunch of clips and batch encode them

[Marc Nibor]

Josh, I just tried that. Bit it seems like this brings me bak to the point where I started from.
If I do that, AME encodes the full clips – not the new, short versions. That’s because I cannot seem to set the “source Range / clip in/out” I only can do that if I select one clip at a time.

[Josh Weiss]

but won’t the subclip ONLY have your selected range. i would think it would respect a subclip range.

[Marc Nibor]

haha… I was actually googling PITA.
thought it might be a part of the solution ; )

[Josh Weiss]

so the subclipping fixed the issue? just worked in my tests here.

[Marc Nibor]

Maybe I’m doing it wrong, but the fact that it doesn’t was the reason I started this thread ; )

I thought this might be “fixed” in 8.1

Well, I’m a bit confused now… in case it worked for you before please let me know.

[Josh Weiss]

Are you sure you are making a SUB CLIP, hitting cmd-u and making a new clip out of it, and not just setting an in and out? i tested on 8.0. can test on 8.1 later if u can’t get it to work.

“in cc14.1 you could also use the consolidate transcode function to generate new media sets from the sequence timeline….just specify a destination…that should work.” >>>>>

I hope I’m not a PITA ; ) but could you please explain this a little further. I don’t exactly understand what I need to do.

Go to retooled.net blog entry about features in 2014.1. Ibc update.

“Are you sure you are making a SUB CLIP,….”

…actually I’m not!!! FINALLY seems to work.
It was exactly as you thought. It was totally my mistake.
Well, not totally because someone else (who won’t be named here 🙂 just taught it to me the wrong way.

Thanks to everyone who helped!!
