1. I loaded up the 2 hour video
2. I made the markers in the various places where I want the video to be sliced.
3. Is there a way to export the video and have the program automatically chop the video in those places, and export individual videos?
Hi.
Not in one go.
Set and use chapter markers where you want each video to start and stop. You will only need two additional place markers to mark the beginning, middle, and end.
They are easier to see than the place markers. Then set the range markers to each place marker position for each individual export.
One export for each video.

Hi,
Well, you learn something new every day. I never played with batch processing.
Good one Alwyn!
You can put in Chapter markers, give each a name, press S and you'll get the batch processing screen:
Selecting chapters gives:
You can deselect any chapters that you don't want. You have to select the output format and settings as it didn't take my Project settings by default.
The other options, as Alwyn indicated are Movies, selectable, and objects on track 1 only, selectable. With this last one, I didn't see a way to give names to the export files.
For details, see Batch Processing in the manual.

Hi Ray,
Nope, no need to cut. I put the Chapter markers at random locations, some in the middle of a clip. Works fine.
I did have trouble with exporting individual objects as everything got the name of the project. I couldn't figure out the part to get the name of the object instead of the movie/project name. When they exported, I got ..._001, _002, etc. appended. Not something I would do anyways.

Back posting as my real name now (will have to work out how to exchange my login on my phone before John EB bans me again!)!
I used the batch feature to batch process a VHS tape full of TV ads, and also music videos I had. Works pretty well.
Creating a new movie (quick cut and paste from the first movie) for each export is another way to do give each a unique name.
