  • Final Cut 7 proxies to mpegstreamclim to create HQ Videos??

    Posted by Daniel Jimenez on February 27, 2012 at 8:12 pm

    I use mpeg streamclip to create some proxies to edit in Final Cut 7
    and save some space on my hard drive, and i have to say its pretty awesome,
    now i want to do my original files Apple Pro Res Hq, but i dont want to choose every file
    of my edition because i have a lot, theres any way to export an XML or EDL so
    MPEG Streamclip knows which files to convert instead of my look for it??

    thanks, ill appreciate an answer

    This is why you don’t use MPEG STREAMCLIP if you want to offline/online. It’s not going to do what you want to do. If you want a smooth offline/online workflow, you need to use FCP and LOG AND TRANSFER. That allows FCP to track things like REEL and TIMECODE. MPEG STREAMCLIP doesn’t add reel number.

    THis is the workflow you need to use:

    The only option you have now with what you have done is to convert everything you used in the cut to full res, and then reconnect.
