Sync timeline

Post by Goly72 »

Hi
Is it possible to synchronize the timeline of one clip with the timeline of another clip? i don't want to use timecode or osc
I wanted to know if there is an option in the software or a plug in
thank you

If they're the same duration, put them in the same column and trigger the column.

thanks for your answer .
I have a project with 4 screens and for graphics problems they give me 4 clips to make the merged screen.
if I change the clip to the first screen when I return to the base column the first clip is not in Sync with the other clips.
When call the. column you see the transition and this is not nice
there is the possibility to put the clip back in sync?
Thank you

SMPTE is a great way to sync clips https://resolume.com/support/en/smpte

You can also play the SMPTE signal in Resolume and then route it back to your composition, if your clips don't have audio.
The other way I know is via OSC bounceback, but if you don't want that either, I'd recommend rendering the clips into a single file.

thank you all for the support
I wanted to know if it could be done with the software without external syncronizations like smpte Midi or osc

Thanks

This really depends on the level of sync you need. For frame sync playback, use SMPTE. For display frame sync, additionally use Nvidia Quadro. or Datapath FX4.
If you're fine with the possibility that the clips drift apart a bit, you can use column triggering for the clips.
