    Posted by Anna Hepworth on May 18, 2009 at 10:05 am

    I am having problems changing the time of a clip, I can add keyframes and split them, I can change the speed of the whole clip but I cant put the two together! I am wondering if there is some setting I have changed that wont let the time remapping tool work properly?
    When I try to change the speed by dragging the yellow line down or up by say 5% in the timeline, any keyframes I had added(to the yellow line) vanish and the clip either expands to the full uncut clip or contracts to a 1 second clip that cant be expand either way.
    Any ideas?!

    See these tutorials to see how time remapping works.

    Ok, I have discovered that the time remapping tool works on other clips, so it must be this clip that is the problem. But, I do remember having this problem before. Just to set the scene, I have one video wich I have cut into lots of little bits (each bit is effectivly a copy of the original as i can expand each clip to the full video). The clip I am trying to remap is about 2 seconds long. when I apply a keyframe and try to change the elastic bands it either shrinks to 1 frame or expands to virtually the whole video, and there are no keyframes to be seen anywhere. I am only ajusting the % by 5-10. everythig else is working fine.

    thanks,

    anna

    Hmm, interesting.

    Just a shot in the dark: Try putting that subclip into its own sequence, then nest that sequence in the main sequence and use time-remapping on the nested sequence.

    Cheers

    Hi Eddie

    this suggestion worked for me.I had the same problem as Anna – seems to be a CS3 glitch!
