capturing footage from a CF reader
Is there anyway in FCPS 2.0 I can capture clips from a CF reader and only have one or 2 long clips instead of a 100 small clips.

You mean that you'd like to combine many different takes into one long take?
It is easy to do in FCP but you have to be willing to lose your source TC. I would just import them all (with log & transfer) then highlight all of them in the bin and drag them into a new sequence (they will go in alphabetically and hopefully chronologically.) You can then export that sequence as a Quicktime reference movie (don't make self-contained) and throw it back in your bin to use as a source clip. |

oh, you may be correct. I have never tried it with small files. Personally, I like the breaks between the clips. I find it easy to keep track with Vegas Pro. You could just drop all the clips in the time line and then render it as one large clip and then delete all the small segments... I know with Vegas it will not re-render the clips so the quality remains the same. kdbf |
Hey Guys, thanks for the replies. I'm use to just capturing the one long clip and going though it setting ins and outs. Now that I have 90 clips in stead of just the one I find it takes more time to open each clip and view it then set an in and out point. I do like the fact that I can capture only the files I want, that makes it great for SDE. I have 2 weddings this weekend so I will let everyone know how things turn out.
