  • ‘Duplicate Project’ with ‘Referenced Events’ – any way to know disk space needed?

    Posted by Robert Esmonde on February 15, 2012 at 10:40 pm

    When I select ‘Duplicate Project’ in FCPX and choose the ‘Duplicate Project and Referenced Events’ option, is there any way to know how much disk space this Duplicate will take up?

    Thanks.

    Just look at the size of the Event folder associated with the project and the Project folder itself and you’ll see how much space you need. Sometimes the render files can be huge. You can delete those before you dupe the project if need be.

    Thanks Jason.

    Just trying to be sure I don’t run out of disk space.
