Creating separate clips in timeline & batch export
Sorry if this has been posted before – I have a continuous 30 min PAL DV Quicktime made up of shorter clips that I need to extract and batch with compressor as separate clips – I have to do it by eye as there is no existing logging information available.
I add a marker at start and end of each clip, then cut each clip up > rename each one > make independent clip > dump them all into a bin and then batch export using compressor > apply settings in compressor to each clip.
Is this the best only way to achieve this? Any help or points to older posts much appreciated!
Cheers, Rich

Thanks for letting me know that I am at least swimming in the right direction.. ;-P

other ways to make the workflow faster:
work from the viewer,
define your clip with in/outs,
Apple U to “Make Subclip”
name the new subclip.this skips the “make independent” step.
batch export as non self contained clips.

Hi Nick – cheers, even faster.
I tested it fine with a couple of clips and have a question – I have reset the start timecode of the sequence to 01:00:00:00 and trimmed off the front 25 seconds off the main clip so it now has a new start frame. When i export the first clip it still retains the original start timecode of 00:00:25:18. Is there a straightforward way to rewrite / create new timecode for the exported clips based on its position in the sequence timecode rather than its original?
Many thanks,
Rich
