Nested sequence question - 17 years agoHi, I like nested sequences but there's something I don't get about how they function and I can't find anything in the manual etc. Let's say I have 2 clips in the timeline stacked on top of each other, same length and each has plenty of in-out point space for a transition at either end. I want to put a transition on either end of this little 2-clip segment so I make the 2 clips into a nestedby Paul C - Café LA Re: external drive - 17 years ago<<<When you get a new drive, make sure it's formatted MacOSX Extended, Non-Journaled. Reformat if you have to. That's important.>>> Could someone explain the steps in formatting a new firewire drive? (latest FCP and G5 dual).

I always thought you got better performance if only the video clips were on your media drive, and everything else on your system drive. (Maybe that's outdated PC-think.) Paulby Paul C - Café LA Moving media files on hard drive - 17 years agoHi, This might seem elementary ... I've seen a few people mention they don't always trust Media Manager for moving their video clips around on their hard drive, so they do it manually. Is there a preferred method for doing this kind of regrouping and sorting out, from one capture folder to another? It seems kind of laborious when you can only open one folder at a time, aside from copying to thby Paul C - Café LA |
