That worked! Thanks for the heads-up. XMedia Recode is a great tool. Tons of options.
I pick the input file type, set the video mode to “copy”… and it dupes without converting. Perfect! There’s no batch processing (but I’m making small clips, so it’s not a big deal).
Great find!

Thanks, Angelo. That would definitely work. I’ve been using FFMPEG indirectly through various RAW conversion utilities.
I’m hoping there is an app that can give me both the ability to scrub and find in/out points, as well as doing the splitting. As a bonus, it would be nice to do it batch-style. But obviously I’m at the mercy of the software that’s available.

Thanks Curt. Both you and Walter are spot on.
In this particular case, I want each clip as a separate composition in AE, therefore it makes sense to put each clip into a sequence in Premiere before importing it into AE. Although maybe there is a script in PP or AE that might facilitate this process. So I’ll have to look into that as well.
That said, for most of my projects, it looks like importing a single sequence from Premiere will do the trick.
But what if I wanted to chop the file into independent files? Would it be best to chop it up in Premiere and then export with a lossless or near-lossless codec?
Has anyone used Prelude for creating clips from large files?

Thank you!
I’m not doing any narrative editing/sequenceing in Premiere. I simply need to chop up a large clip (10min) into about 50 short clips (1-2 seconds). And then I will do all the sequencing in After Effects.
Using your suggested method, I would need to create a separate sequence for each and every subclip I want to export to After Effects. Otherwise, all the subclips get mashed together. I’m wondering if there is a way to export smaller clips/subclips without creating a sequence for each one.
I’m new to video editing and motion gfx, but it would seem like I should be able to dynamically link subclips without nesting them in sequences.
