Exported Video Shorter than Original

Hello !

I'm having two issues with my project that maybe someone is able to help.

1. I want to export individual clips and keeping their name. (what methods are the best ?)

2. When I managed to do the first step it exports sometimes shorter and sometimes longer video files.

This is my timeline, each segment is a separate video file with its own name and exactly 10 seconds long.

When I export them as individual clips 20% of them are 9 seconds long.

I discovered that "fps" and sequence settings are at fault here, but haven't managed to tweak it.

The imported files are in .mp4 format and some have different fps's. (mixed fps rates)

Thank you !

I am watching your video again and I think your sequence is at 25 fps

and you are trying to export at 30fps.

Please readjust your sequence settings to match the fps of your export or the reverse,

footage fps, sequence fps and export fps should be the same

Myeaa... You are right it was the sequence at 25 and I was pushing 30 on the other side. Ok all lined up...

Now how do I export all of the files separately keeping their own names, only 10 seconds as in the timeline, because if I add them to queue in the Media Encoder it exports all the clip not only 10 seconds. (I got Premiere Pro CC 2018)

EDIT: Managed to use the render and replace tool, it worked, big files for only 10 seconds but I will make them smaller somehow, now the only issue is with 50 fps video files, they are distorted (run faster and in lenght have 4-6 seconds instead of 10 like in the timeline), how can I correct for those two ? Is there a middle FPS option that I could choose ?

Thanks in advance for the help !

Ok let me try this again.

The previous version where we changed the FPS for all the videos to match the FPS of the sequence bangs up the videos, they render out with a length of 10 seconds but I got dropped frames and in some areas where the original video is 29.97 fps and I convert it to 25.00 fps the sound goes weird.

In the end...If it doesn't come out perfect, I will ask someone to create a script so it could save the trim (in's / out's) of a video file the first time I cut it, and when I drag it in It will auto do the cut.

In your case, if I just want to keep all videos at their native frame rates

and do a batch export, I would create sub-sequences for each group

of footage with the same frame rate. Please do not conform your footage in this case.

So I will have a sub-sequence of all 50 or 60fps footage

another sub-sequence of all 30 fps footage

another for all 25 fps footage, so on...

then use the Project Manager method I explained to you and

check all the sub-sequences, then do the export

but if you want them all at the same frame rate, then decide which

frame rate you want and create a sequence based on that, drop

all your footage in that sequence and do the Project Manager method

of batch export from there.
