"Play From Selection"

Postby Manuel Amengual » Fri Jun 07, 2024 20:41

Good afternoon, Friends!

First most, I apologize if this has been posted before, I did not find in in the forum, nor the manual. A quick inquiry about if anyone knows a way to do a "Play from Selection" playback, regarding the play head position. For example, if there's a whole bunch of clips in the timeline, but I quickly want to play a specific one, I mean, to select it and play it without having to move the play head to an unprecise near point. is there a command for this? A combination of a key with the space bar? Hope my question comes clear, and thanks in advance for any tips. I leave our system configuration below.

You can use the "Nudge Cursor to Next (or Previous) Clip" controls in the Cursor and Marks menu, to jump the cursor to the next/previous clip boundary. These controls have buttons that can be installed in one of the Toolbars in the main window. I typically have the buttons for Previous/Next Clips, Edits and Fades available to me at all times.

You can also open the EDL Tab, and select the clip you want from the sequence of clips displayed there, by double clicking on the clip name.

If you have a location that you will need to return to often, just drop a Marker there for instant recall.
