  Keywords etc. Limits?

  Posted by Michael Benton on July 2, 2011 at 12:35 am

  I am working on Events that could end up with over 1000 keywords and thousands of associated clips with multiple keywords attached.

  I am wondering if anyone knows . . .

  1 – If there are limits to how big the Keyword / Favorites / etc. ‘db’ can get?
  2 – Is there a way to back them up in case of corruption?

  I don’t know about the limits for keywords but in the manual it explains how to copy or move events to another hard drive so that could give you some peace of mind.

  Thanks . . . yeah, I backup (actually clone) the drive regularly.

  I am just concerned about either bugs in FCP X or hitting some unknown size limit of the app’s keyword db since they haven’t stated anything.
