"Split" Command and UMSP8

Jezve · Post by **Jezve** » Thu Sep 08, 2005 2:40 pm

HI!
In the current version of UMSP8 I can split one clip at a time only ("split" is splitting audio from video). Can I hope that in the future release I will be able to select several clips and split them all simultaneously?

Thanks.

That's a new one

I'll put it into the suggestion thread in the beta list.

I second the suggestion. The most common instance where it's been a problem is when I've added a DV clip using Scenes, and decide I don't want the sound.

If I discover this early, I can just delete the track, import without Scenes, Split the overall sound, and then use Split by Scene. However, if I've done a bunch of editing before I discover the sound is inadequate, I'm stuck walking the clips in the timeline, selecting each, and using right-click Split on each of them. It would certainly be nice to be able to select a bunch of clips (i.e. the scenes) and invoke Split on all of them.

Thanks Terry for "I'll put it into the suggestion thread in the beta list."

I can't think why no-one has suggested this before.
Sometimes I have brought in about a hundred small clips and had to split everyone of them - Yuk!

What a great suggestion!
