HOTKEY - "Set in and out point for clip at Playhead"

Hey all!

Been searching inside of Premiere's new hotkey keyboard panel and cannot find this shortcut anymore to save my life. Does anybody know if they failed to migrate it to their new keyboard type setup for hotkeys or changed the name?

I've found "Select Clip at playhead" but that only selects the clips, not set an in and out point over the entire clip. Did they change the name of this hotkey by chance?

hehe, still not working within a brand new project and new footage.

It's quite a strange one. The command does not work within the timeline window at all which is frustrating. But the second I jump to the 'Program Monitor' and scrub the timeline from within that window, it allows the function to work properly. It's just very impractical to jump windows like that for editing.

I appreciate the help Horshack!


That's a good clue. Some shortcuts are specific to panels and can override non-panel specific shortcuts. This behavior is color-coded in Premiere's shortcut viewer. Perhaps you have defined a shortcut to be panel-specific or defined a conflicting shortcut that overrides your shortcut in the timeline window.

If all else fails you can try using a different shortcut preset (drop-down at top of shortcut viewer) and see if that works.

What You're looking for is called. "MARK SELECTION" in keyboard shortcuts.

If I'm understanding you correctly, the shortcut is called "Mark In" and "Mark Out" is assigned to 'i' and 'o' by default.

Yeah, I have those shortcuts already mapped and used them often. The shortcut I am looking for however creates an in and an out point over the clip your playhead currently sits over top of.

Sure thing.

So to detail out what I am looking for: Let's say I want to replace Clip A on my timeline with Clip B in my source monitor. I am looking to be able to set an in and out point very quickly over top of Clip A (I'm able to do this in AVID no problem and could do this in Premiere up until this point). The method I used to use is to move my playhead in the timeline window to align over top of some part of Clip A. Then I toggle on the track (V1) that my clip is located on. This zeros in on the exact clip on my timeline that I am looking to set an in and an out point over top of. At this point, I just hit "T" (my shortcut for Mark Clip) and I get an In and Out point covering Clip A.

From here, I am able to hit "B" (My 'overwrite' hotkey) which simply replaces Clip A in my timeline with Clip B from my source monitor.

This method I am able to stay away from using the mouse due to moving with arrow keys and I am able to consolidate this process of replacing Clip A with Clip B into a 2 hotkey process.

Also, thanks for helping Horshack
