Faster than 1000% max speed making timelapse clips

[Markag87]

I have a fetaure request regarding timelapse and clip speed options. I would like to be able to adjust my clips well above the current 1000% upper limit.

I am creating videos where I need to convert long video recordings down to short timelapse clips within my larger video projects. The particluar tasks that I'm working on can take hours, and I would like them to be condensed down to relatively short timelapse clips.

The current upper limit of 1000% speed (10X speed) just isn't fast enough to make the clips as short as I would like. Even the built in Microsoft video editor in Windows 10 supports 64X speed capability for clips. If I want faster timelapse clips, I have to edit them multiple times to get them sped up fast enough, which is inefficient and time consuming. For example, a 3 hour video clip at 1000% speed still ends up being 18 minutes long. At 64X speed (6400%) it would only be 2 min 49 seconds long, which fits much better as a clip within a project video. 

I would like to see the ability to go to at least 6400% (64X) or more for max clip speed. Usability wise, this may create issues to have that much range on a single slider as you may loose precision to adjust to a particulare speed when you don't need to go that that max speed. One option to overcome it would be to have a specific timelapse functionality that gives you a separate slider, menu box, or control option to differentiate between fine tuning speed adjustments, and high speed timelapse speeds.

yes, please, this is a a really big downer right now.  It should really be unlimited.

This is my biggest gripe with Rush right now. This and not being able to copy/paste effects (especially speed) to multiple clips at the same time. I've had to go to other editing apps such as capcut for the speed effect but unfortunately capcup sucks the life out of video/audio quality upon export. Please adobe, would love to have these things implemented.

Thanks for the feature request, @Markag87, @noahr58648813, and @user6233437. You can access more speed controls in Premiere Pro right now, however. Check out a trial version here.

Cheers,
Kevin

My biggest gripe with Rush right now is not being able to speed my clips past 1000. I make time lapse videos using long takes (sometimes 30+ minutes) which I need to condense into several seconds. Also, for the love of all things convenient, please implement a copy/paste function for effects (especially speed) so I can apply the same speed or effect to multiple clips at the same time. I've had to go to other editing apps such as capcut for the speed effect but unfortunately capcup sucks the life out of video/audio quality upon export. Please adobe, would love to see these things in Rush as it's a better (free) option to most ios editing apps right now (barring what I mentioned above).

Hello @noahr58648813,

Thanks for the feature requests. I've noted them! You can try your desired features in a trial version of Premiere Pro. It turns out that you probably need Pro to do what you want to do right now. 🙂

Cheers,
Kevin
