Thanks. I think Marco’s suggestion will work well.

Vegasaur interest piqued. Now I’m wondering if Magix might buy Vegasaur and integrate it into Vegas Pro 17. (or a later build of VP16?)

wish: in the timeline, batch create subclips from regions* (I know we can\’t create subclips if a region contains multiple clips, but for regions containing only one clip, why can\’t we batch-create subclips? Can we?)
* (ideally with the option to name the subclip using the region text – either appended to or replacing all or part of the filename)

Thanks. I’m glad VP16 has “Close Gaps”, but I’d be disappointed if it’s true that markers (including regions) don’t move when the events move.

(And thanks Tim for further raising my interest in Vegasaur. That feature you mention sounds valuable indeed. I’ll review the other features.)

Pushed aside because Media Bins and Tags are supposed to do everything Media Manager could do?
When I heard Media Manager was gone, I wondered how can anyone create any complex project with Vegas without it? Maybe Media Bins and Tags will suffice – I’m just beginning to explore – but I feel Media Manager was far more powerful and user-friendly.

Thanks – I should have clarified – I want to ripple all the regions and markers to the right of the cut section – i.e. all the affected markers and regions. Vegas, however, also moves ending Region flags immediately preceding the cut section. !! ??

Thanks Doug, Thanks Tim,
(I hope Doug receives this Reply, clicked from Tim’s post)

Yes, the zooming in and shifting a flag by a frame or two, doing my thing, then shifting it back – that is workable. Not elegant, but manageable. Thanks.

Tim, thanks for saying how to batch create subclips from regions in the trimmer! Awesome!
(Also, I found if I don’t want all the regions between the first and last Region, ctrl instead of shift lets me select multiple regions. Or I can use shift to select all regions between the first and last selected regions, and then use ctrl to exclude some, if I want.)

Just yesterday I discovered the same problem with subclips you mention. Much or most times, I don’t extend beyond the subclip, so this limitation normally does not affect me, but I can imagine it being a pain with some projects. Thanks for reminding me about “A” (add to timeline) – something I learned once, used twice, but then forgot. I’ll try that as an alternative to subclips.

I’ll edit my message signature to remove Wish #1

Wish #2: Sometimes I don’t anticipate a benefit from using the Trimmer so I start working straight in the Timeline, but then end up with several regions I want to turn into subclips. If there was a “Demote Media Markers” script (like the “Promote Media Markers” script that comes with Vegas), I could just click Demote… and then batch create subclips from regions in the Trimmer. Since I can’t find a Demote Media Markers script, I’m hoping to find a way to batch-create subclips from the Timeline. I acknowledge that if a region contains more than one clip, a subclip by definition can’t possibly be created, so if there was a batch method, I understand any such region would be skipped. But for regions that contain only single clips, surely it should be possible to batch-create subclips. I tried your shift-click method of selecting multiple regions. It did succeed in selecting multiple regions … actually, perhaps only the region headers, not the regions themselves …. Alas, clicking “create subclip” within one of the selected regions only created the one subclip. Do you know a way to batch-create subclips from regions in the Timeline?

too early to “bump”? (2 days, no replies)

I could post these as 3 separate questions, but the questions overlap. They are 3 different ways trying to achieve the same result.
1. Batch create subclips from regions
2. Demote media markers
3. open all timeline regions (for one file) in trimmer
If #1 is possible, I don’t need 2 or 3.
If #2 is possible, I don’t need 3.

Thank you Dimitrios. When I click Remove From Project, I didn’t fear it would delete the source file – perhaps I was not clear about that – but the dialogue window that popped up saying the media file was in use made me think removing the subclip would remove the source file from the project. You’re right! It doesn’t remove the source file from the project, just the subclip. It seems I didn’t even try it before posting for help here. Sorry about that – not my usual way of using this forum – far from it. Okay, case closed!
