Naming Clips

[Luke Maslen]

Hi Riccardo,

Naming of clips is required before a capture otherwise your NLE won’t know what name to use. If you are using Final Cut Pro, open the PDF Help manual and go to the section “Logging and Capturing Media” which explains how to perform batch logging prior to capture. You can use a spreadsheet program to construct a batch capture list which can then be imported in to FCP prior to capture. There is a section about this in the PDF manual named “Creating and Importing a Batch Capture List”.

No I am just using BlackMagic Deck Control v5.1
v5 had an apple + t key stroke to name the clip aboiut to be captured, v5.1 doesn’t have this anymore.

Hi Riccardo,

That preference was moved to the Preferences for Blackmagic Deck Control where it should have been all along. I have already requested a shortcut key for the Preferences so hopefully that will be available in the next release.
