    Is there a way, or software out there where i can rename all associated clips on the P2 cards, we have added the Proxy encoder to our workflow, but really would like to not use the Alpha Numeric Names of the clips, any help would be appreciated.

    In which editor? Generally speaking it’s best to rename within the NLE, while not messing with the original media name to preserve connections.

    We are using final cut pro. From what I can tell there is no way to associate the Proxy files with the Final Cut files, and we are trying to use the proxies for archival purposes, if I am mistaken please let me know.

    what’s this proxy encoder you speak of. If you’re talking about the proxies created by the camera- no they are not usable for anything in FCP. Don’t make it harder than it needs to be- ingest your footage to DVCPROHD via the Log and transfer window and edit away.

    Enter your Metadata in P2CMS save that to an SD card load that onto your P2 camera.
    In FCP 7 Log and Transfer you can choose to use the clips name or any other custom naming you want.

    If you also want proxies, check out ProxyMill from Imagine Products.
