recapture sequence
Maybe I’m crazy, but I thought the last time I recaptured footage of a sequence I simply selected it and chose “recapture.” Today, in FCP 6, every tape is being captured in its entirety. what am I doing wrong?

You didn’t create a new sequence with media manager that only referenced what was actually in the sequence you’re recapturing.

Thanks for the tip, Jerry, but I don’t remember doing that before. My memory of FCP 5 and 4.5 before it was that I highlighted anything in the project, sequence or clips and chose “batch capture,” and it captured only the selected items.
So I tried using media manager to create a new project, and now it looks as if my sequence is in fact recapturing. Question is, how can I recapture clips that aren’t in my sequence?
For the record, I’m capturing via RS-422 from a Beta deck via my Sony 1500 DV deck.
Thanks again.

Just select the clips you want to recapture and recapture them.

Exactly what I’m used to doing, but in FCP 6 it captures the whole tape.

It’s because you didn’t create a new sequence that references only the media used in it… you have to use media manager to do this. There’s instructions in the online help about the routine… but it’s done with the current sequence, then managed through media manager.
