Mouse jog and mouse shuttle - Media Composer Video Tutorial | ...

- You have probably noticed the mouse job and mouse shuttle buttons that have appeared in the composer window while in trim mode. Let's take a quick look at what they do. I'm going to click to go into our trim mode here in the timeline window. We have these two buttons right here at the bottom left. Mouse jog turns the mouse itself into a job controller. So if I move to the right (inaudible slow motion sound) or move to the left (inaudible slow motion sound) I can hear the audio from one side of the edit and I can selectively reposition these trim rollers. This mode actually works during normal playback as well but you'd have to enable it using the command pallette or adding a keyboard shortcut. You can pause this mode by double clicking with the mouse or by pressing the space bar. You can press the escape key as well and it'll switch back to viewing the source monitor and composer monitor. That just takes you out of trim mode. Back in trim mode we also have a mouse shuttle option. And so if I click this button we get multiple speeds of playback. It takes some pretty subtle movement of a mouse to control this.

mouse wheel as jog/shuttle | LWKS Forum

would it be possible to create a configuration option for using the mouse wheel as jog/shuttle input device? dedicate hardware, like your lightworks console, may be a much smarter solution for most precise input and tactile feedback, but like many real high end equipment it is very expensive, hard to get and painful to maintain on various platforms. This is an interesting idea but surely, a jog/shuttle wheel is more 'ergonomic' eg: correct rotational plane. I have a scroll wheel and trackball on my wi-fy keyboard so I o need for a dedicated mouse. I still recommend the Contour jog/shuttle as an interim to the dedicated LW Console. This is an interesting idea but surely, a jog/shuttle wheel is more 'ergonomic' eg: correct rotational plane. Click to expand... some notebook touchpads emulate the mouse-wheel very close to a physical jog dial. affordable compromises like the contour shuttle pro or similar miss a lot of quality and do not look so attractive to me. i don't want to spread my awareness on to many devices. the keybord and the mouse are enough for two hands. instead we should use all the possibilities of this little mousewheels under our fingertips in a more powerful way! i know, the mousewheel is still very useful as an input device in lightworks. yes - i don't want to miss it for zooming the timeline, changing the audio levels, etc. but the jog/shuttle functionality looks so essential to me, that it would much more like to navigate frame by frame by scrolling the mouse wheel like turning a jog dial instead of using this input methode only for to navigating between edit points.

I think a good mouse, with customizable tactile controls that you can feel and memorize, is probably the best interface investment you can make. But there are other options for improving efficiency beyond that. Tablets, Jog Shuttle and More A digitizing tablet is an alternative that many artists prefer, but it offers no unique editing capabilities over a mouse other than better ergonomics for some. The first is through keyboard improvements, either by better labeling the keys with whatever functions have been assigned to them in each application or by adding customizable keys. Many editing environments are relatively dark, so backlit keyboards could be beneficial as well. A mouse can also be improved by adding a scroll wheel for a third axis of analog control and by adding buttons in various places. The best tool is going to depend on your workflow, application and the way you think. I recommend starting with a high-end mouse and then moving on from there once you have effectively memorized the functions that you have mapped. The primary way that most people communicate with a computer is through the mouse and keyboard. The mouse has analog input in the form of a motion and scroll wheel and digital input from the buttons.

Making a Computer Jog/Scrolling Wheel – PCB Isolation

The idea is simple, take the scrolling mechanism out of a mouse, and move it to a large, heavy spinning wheel of some sort. The benefits of this, scrolling long webpages and folders is tireless and editing video is a quicker process, as you are able to scrub easily and quickly. The more you use a jog wheel, the quicker and more painless navigating and using a computer becomes. You can buy jog wheels. A popular consumer version is the Griffin Powermate. Encoder is visible to the right of the wheel, it is the narrow gear. Farther to the right are the ridges responsible for the ‘click-click’ feel. There are two types of mice you will encounter and only one type will work for this project. 1. Mice with an electro-mechanical rotary encoder. If you look at the inside of this type of mouse, you will see the scroll wheel turns a shaft that is mechanically measured for movement. The home stretch. I added a power indicator LED, a few strips of plastic to protect the encoder and a piece of wood to cover the remainder of the mouse. And there you have it, a homemade DIY jog wheel! Usually it is a small box with wires or traces leading to it. 2. Mice with an optical encoder. These are distinguished with an encoder wheel (it looks like a gear) on the axis of the scroll wheel. When you scroll, the teeth of the gear interrupt an IR beam, and the mouse knows you are rotating the scroll wheel.

That is how tutorials should be. Great job [Osgeld]. ... The Orbita mouse seems to be finally coming to production. After watching that video, it seems that the mouse could be quite nice actually. We’ve seen several people build jog wheels for their computer and others try to make scrolling more ergonomic, and this product seems to add both decently. As he points out, the idea of using the head as a jog wheel isn’t new. His construction and build quality however have yielded a fantastic looking reliable device that we would be proud to have sitting on our desk. As usual, the most interesting bits of the writeup are how he solved problems he encountered. For example, he’s using an optical mouse to detect the motion of the wheel. This isn’t Hackaday’s first Motorized Volume Knob feature, but it might be one of the neatest we have seen so far. Thanks to [mattvenn] on the Hackaday Discord server for the great tip! Continue reading “Haptic Smart Knob Does Several Jobs” → ... [Osgeld] takes on the classic VCR head jog wheel in this instructable. He has done a fantastic job not only in his build quality, but in the quality of the writeup. A knob is a knob, a switch is a switch, and that’s that, right? And what about those knobs that have detents, set in stone at the time of manufacturing? Oh, and those knobs that let you jog left to right and then snap back to center — that can’t be modified…right?
