Hi does anyone know if you can do this on msp 7 or 8
I film a show on two cameras.
The wide camera footage is put on the timeline 1 which includes the audio.
I put the close up footagesho on timeline 2 which has no audio.
I now have to take out the bad scenes from timeline 2 and i do this by inserting a cut line and removing. TEEEEEDDDDEEEEUUUUSSSS!
Is there any way of running the video on the time line from begining to end and press a particular key at the same time (like in batch capturing) to remove segment of video i dont require? Similar to the old insert editing on the old umaticsp analogue edit suites.
Cheers ANdy
Is it possible to do set input and output points on edit

No problem with v. 8
Set up for instant preview, making sure no clips/tracks selected. Press the space bar and it'll start playing. When you come to a spot where you want to change tracks, press U and this will cut across all tracks. Press space bar again until the next U and so on. You can then delete the bits you don't want in V1 and slide in V2 in the gap.
If the cut is slightly out in time, you can drag the join in either direction to correct it. By doing this with a single track, you can get it to overlap for a transition.
By clicking on the "eye" (hide) icon or the "!" (Solo) one, you can adjust which tracks you see in the preview.
I recommend you split the audio from the video, so that this is not manipulated. It may be better to lock the audio track, depending on what you are doing.

Devil,
This is a great tip, I will be shooting my daughter's school year and play shortly, and will have one wide angle stationary camera, and one rovimg camera, and what you describe is exactly what I will be doing. However, at the point where I replace track 1(the wide angle shot) with track 2, I want there to be a transition from one to the other. If I put the cut piece of track 2 into the source window, scroll a few frames back, and re-mark in, the start point on the timeline remains the same, but the end point is extended. The option is to cut a short way before you need to change, and reset the mark out point of the preceding piece of track 1 and reset the mark out point of track 2 to a little later and then move track 2 into the gap in track 1, thereby creating a transition front and back of the replaced portion.
This sound a bit garbled, hope you understand what I mean, and would there be another way to do this?
Regards,
Greg

Do as I suggested to get the gap in video1, making sure you're in no-ripple mode. Then, working in video2 alone, place your arrow over the LH join (you will see two arrows facing each other) and drag it back the transition time. Do the same at t'other end, dragging it forward. Then place the playhead at the start of this clip and move it south onto video1, making sure you're snapped onto the playhead line, so that you have no loss of synch. You will then have your default transitions at each end of your cam2 sequence.
