Time Adjustment on Clips

Change the playback speed of an entire clip or a part of the clip.

Changing Playback Speed of Entire Clip

Changing clip playback speed can make video more impressive. If the playback speed is changed, clip duration (length) is also changed.

1Right-click on a clip, and click [Time Effect] [Speed].

The [Speed] dialog box appears.

2Enter the ratio in [Rate].

Enter a numerical value of the ratio of the speed compared to the original clip.

To make the speed faster, enter a value larger than 100%, and to make it slower, enter a value smaller than 100%.

Alternative
3Click [OK].

An orange line is displayed on clips whose speed has been changed.

Changing Playback Speed of Part of Clip (Time Remap)

You can alter the speed of any part of a clip.

The speed is changed by setting a frame to be the key and adjusting the intervals. For example, if you shorten the key frame duration to make the playback speed faster, the remaining frames are automatically interpolated, and as a result, the speed of the previous/next frames is changed. The In point of a clip, the frame of the Out point, and the overall length remain unchanged.

1Right-click on a clip, and click [Time Effect] [Time Remap].

The [Time Remap] dialog box appears.

2Move the timeline cursor.
3Click [Add Key] at the position to add a key.

The key is added in the key setting field.

4Move the mouse cursor over the key, and drag to the left or right.

To make the playback speed slower, widen the key frame, and to make it faster, narrow down the key frame. The speed before and after the key frame is also changed.

The frame of the clip can also be dragged to the left or right.

5Click [Playback] or [Loop Playback] to check the video.

The video is displayed on the Recorder.

One Frame at a Time Playback (Freeze Frame)

Play back the In or Out points of the clip with the motion stopped. Clips can be stopped for the length of the clip, and in addition, the part before or after a desired frame can be stopped.

Freeze Frame at In or Out Point of Clip
1Right-click on a clip, and click [Time Effect] [Freeze Frame] [Setup].

The [Freeze Frame] dialog box appears.

2Check [Enable freeze frame].
3Select the position to freeze, and click [OK].

When the In point is selected, the frame of the In point is freeze-framed for the length of the clip, and when the Out point is selected, the frame of the Out point is freeze-framed for the length of the clip.

Freeze-framing Part before or after a Desired Frame
1Move the timeline cursor to the frame to freeze.
2Right-click on a clip, and click [Time Effect] [Freeze Frame] [Before Cursor] or [After Cursor].

The selected clip is cut at the timeline cursor position, and freeze frame is set to clips before or after the cursor. When freeze frame has been set after a cursor, the fixed position becomes the In point, and when freeze frame has been set before a cursor, the fixed position becomes the Out point.
