Split Layer every Nth Frame
Hi @ all,
my first post. Hooooray ????
As the topic says, im looking for a plugin / script / possibility to split a selected layer every nth frame.
To describe further:I have a 2min video in one layer and want to split that layer, that every new layer is 20frames for example.
For now, my workflow is following:
goto frame 20 – ctrl-shif + d – select inpoint – move layer to 0:00:00 (so that timemarker rests on frame 20) – repeat from startis there a shorter way? thanks in advance

thanks for your reply
It is really simple task
i render long steady shots in blender. export them as a long (2-3 minutes) movie.
after that, i import the png sequence in AFX and want to make some “jump cuts” with them. later, i have one long movie with random jump cuts in them.
ok – i could use Dan Ebberts´ motionscript example – but this has a big disadvantage: i cant CUT in the main movie – otherwise i have stupid cuts in the end movie – i hope you get what im saying.
when i split the layer – i can preview every new scene and maybe delete them –
after that – i can rearrange the layers with only the good shots and tataaaaa – i got video with random position in video with only the best parts of the dolly shot.
the main aim is, that every cut matches the beat while playing live.thanks in advance
