You said after adjusting the playback properties, to stretch or shrink the timeline. Thank you for the reply, the velocity envelope, and nesting, is exactly what I needed. Like start the video at 1x, and have it gradually and smoothly increase to 10x, rather than having sudden jumps. Ideally I wish there was a method to gradually increase speed. Method 1 would be easier, but it doens’t seem to work. It will be a nightmare if I have to do method 2 to accomplish this.
Isn’t there an easier way? I’m about to make a project where I want the video to start out at 1x speed, after 10 seconds to to 2x speed, after 10 seconds go to 3x speed, and so on, up to about 10x. However the only way I’ve been able to accurately do it without simply guessing, is to take the entire clip I want to stretch, put it to the very beginning of the timeline, read how long it is right down to the frame, do the math, stretch it to exactly double, then put it back where it goes. That means I would have to stretch the clip to exactly twice its length. For example, I do a lot of 60fps shooting, that I like to play back at 30fps. This does indeed work, but does not seem accurate and relies on guesswork. Holding Ctrl and dragging the clip to stretch or shink it. 5x the clip length should double, but it doesn’t.Ģ. The clip stays exactly the same length in the timeline. Right clicking properties, and going to playback rate, and adjusting accordingly to. Heres the problems I’m having with each method.ġ.
I’ve read instructions how to do so, however the 2 methods I know work very poorly. I have always had a lot of trouble adjusting the playback rate in sony vegas.
