Quote Jim,

When you remove the first section do you do it such that the clip you want to produce is moved to the start of the timeline? If not that might be worth trying.


Thanks for your interest.

I do indeed move the wanted clip to the start of the timeline.

I think the problem is on the production page rather than with the editing., After pressing start production, the blue progress line starts part way along the progress bar, as if it slides over the first part of the clip.

Thanks very much.

Not sure I understand completely what you are saying. However, if you want to produce an extract from a longer clip, try using the "produce range" facility.

Place the scrubber at the the place where you want the clip to begin and then using the right hand orange handle on the scrubber, drag the handle to the place where you want the new clip to finish.

Above the timeline you should see "Produce Range" click on it and you will be taken to the produce page. Then select the required settings and press start. When complete, the new clip will be placed back in the library.

Hopefully that will work for you

Thank you so much for such a quick response.

I am sorry I was unclear, and will have another go at explaining the problem.

Say, I have a 3 minute clip. From this, I only want the middle minute. So I split the clip into 3 sections, and remove the first and third sections. So I am now left with the middle minute clip.

I then click the produce button. The middle minute clip shows up on the produce page. I select the settings and start to produce. The result is a minute long clip. But on playing it, the first 10 seconds of the clip are missing. It starts say 10 seconds in from the original clip. It still lasts 1 minute, but the last 10 seconds are a single frame with no audio.

This is a new problem. I have edited clips before in this way and they worked perfectly.

Hope this is clearer.

Sorry to be dim, but I do not know what the "scrubber" is!

And again thanks for your help.

Jim
I am a novice on PD12.

In edit, I have extracted a short clip from a longer one. When trying to produce the shorter clip (as an MP4) production starts a few seconds on (part way along the producing movie indicator. The produced length of the clip is shown the same as the original short clip, but the last few seconds are a single frame with no sound.
I have not had this problem before when following exactly the same steps.
Grateful for any help.
