  • sequence dates erratically changing…

    Posted by Peterson on March 3, 2006 at 12:54 pm

    howdy-

    1. I am pretty new to FCP (although many years on Avid) and have been working on a longish doc. One way that I keep track of the latest variations on multiple cuts & sequences & when I worked on them is by the “last Modified” date column. But the ascribed dates are either changing at random or according to a FCP law that I don’t yet understand. For instance, looking through my sequence folders today I see many that have today’s date in the last modified column when I know that I have not worked on that particular cut in weeks or even opened the folder it is in (prior to checking on what’s up). I often dip into a scene and then leave it for awhile & do not remember all of my tweaks. It spooks me a bit, like there are goings on I don’t get – such as whether or not that sequence was actually changed today by some key stroke or action while working on another cut entirely. What could this be about?

    2. Also, I would like to know how to use audio scrub while in trimming mode as I often use the single frame to ‘hear’ my way through a trim. Also, how to select which track to isolate in this unknown trim / scrub mode. I have looked through the manual and have not located this instruction.

    Thanks,

    peter
