  Networking 1 FCP project to 2 computers

  Posted by Joelinton on July 28, 2005 at 5:39 am

  We are working on a documentary with immense amounts of footage. We want to break up the work load between 2 different editors. Now we have successfully networked the 2 FCP systems where both systems can open the same project and work simultaneously. The problem we are having is that when 1 station saves, it over-writes the other saved project file saved by the other station. We are wondering if there is a way to have FCP update or refresh automatically when the project file is saved, regardless from which station. Any suggestions or advice on this issue will be greatly appreciated. thank you.

  One project per computer. Period. This isn’t Avid Unity where the bins are all separate folders that one machine can modify…the project file is a whole. You will have to have two separate projects (Project A and Project B) and then have a transfer project where you drop in sequences that you want the other person to have.
