  • Is it Just me or are EDLs not reliable?

    Posted by Martin Sterling on June 24, 2005 at 6:24 pm

    Im using fcp 4.5 and on many occasions when I export an edl and then re-import it for usage, it captures the wrong material and sometimes gives me tape names I didn’t even log.

    Why is that anf how do I get around it?

    thank you in advance

    EDL’s can’t use tape names longer than 8? or so characters… but why export an EDL at all? just use the project file for recapture…
