Great I have to purchase something that should be a standard. Kinda ridiculous.

How do people print bins?

[Michael Sacci]

You can always do a screen capture and print that, Not the best and I know that is not what you want.

Yeah we have to buy things we need. Someday everything will just be given to us.

What should be and what is, don’t always meet so if you need it you have to buy it.

[Jack Bibbo]

The screen capture wont work for our methods.

I am not opposed to buying things that are needed but this is SO elementary that
it is beyond me why it is not included. Maybe I should have to buy a third party plug-in to rename clips.

Until then those that wish to print a bin of a seq that includes the media clips in that seq (media relatives). Do this:

Media Manager / Create Offline – select radio button for “new project”. DO NOT DELETE UNUSED CLIPS. DO NOT INCLUDE MASTER OUTSIDE OF SELECTION.

That seq and the clips associated with the Seq will appear in a new project.

Control click the seq and export a batch list. Then print a batch list.

WOW that is a lot of steps but it will print your bin.

Look up “batch list” in your FCP manual. You can export a batch list & print that.

I know, you shouldn’t have to look anything up in the manual.

Yep..I just ran through that in the prior post.

The problem with this method however is that batch list does not become selective. So it will batch list everything in the project. And what we need to do is create a list for the clips just in the sequence. This is why you have to consolidate your sequence first into a new project. A large workaround but not the end of the world.

thanks

Actually, you can use a batch list to easily list & print a single bin.

Look it up in your manual. The information is there, and it will do exactly what you want with very few steps.

Very good…I will have to look into that

thanks!

[Jack Bibbo]

However…it stills does not solve the media relatives issues. Which is how to show which clips where used in a certain sequence. Put those clips in a bin and then print it.

any ideas??

Labels. This question is frequently asked here, and the answer is to select all clips in a sequence and then choose a color coded label from the “Modify” menu. You can sort by these labels in the FCP browser.

I recently used this feature to swap out all of the SD footage in an DVCPro HD feature, for example.
