  • Clip names do not stick in XDCAM Transfer

    I change the clip names i XDCAM Clip Browser to something useful.
    Then I import them with XDCAM Transfer to Final Cut Pro.
    Quite simple and has worked several years.

    But now my new names does not always stick when I want to import. I have not found any pattern to this problem. Right now I have both programs open and I copy and paste the clip names from one to the other when I need to before importing.

    Clip Browser 2.06.00
    Transfer 2.12.00
    Mac OS 10.6.8

    Found that in the Archive menu there is a command “Fetch metadata for clip” which works. Easier than copy and paste. But it is still an extra action needed, which before was automatic.
