Well I was thinking that any scripting for a replacement can happen at the OS level….

as long as a copy of the file lands in the same location with the same exact name….that’s what will be used.

so:

AFx > a file location with original file name from AFx

then

an OS script copies the new file to the location PPro is reading from AS the file name PPro is using.

are you adding ftg or replacing ftg?

make sequence…

keep it in bin….

when you edit to timeleine….you can choose nested (one segment)

or NOT nested…all parts….

What’s the original resolution of the ftg?

is it native resolution in the timeline?

or was it some sort of up or down scaling to begin with?

what is it that you are ultimately trying to achieve?

If you have video out…

I’ve heard of people using a Slingbox for this purpose…

then you can use a speaker phone or Skype just for the audio communications with the client.

search the effects panel for

FILL LEFT and FILL RIGHT

apply as needed to audio clips on your timeline…

couple of questions

Are you doing a swap or do you want one channel or the other?

are you saying that you have different sources with different mappings?

mirror that drive often….as taking a drive in transit increases the possibility of failure!

Good luck!!

well….I agree….

but as long as you keep audio and video on the timeline when you are initially rough cutting….

this is doable….

Hi….

the creative “Cloud” refers to the method software distribution (say as opposed to boxes of software discs and manuals). The software is still installed on your local machine. Every CC gets essentially 2 locations per license. The idea was one for the office, one for the laptop. However, even if it was only one…once installed in both places…log out before you leave the office….log in when you get home….

Agreed, the capacity is likely not be enough. Something lke dropbox might work though…

and again….you are not editing “from the cloud” dropbox and similar, can be used to keep to local sites in sync.

if you add a file at one location, it will also get mirrored to the other location….

so assuming you have a drop box style account that has capacity for project assets….once material is mirrored at both locations….
(which can take time)

now we are talking about updates …as additional files are added…they will also get mirrored. So depending how much is added on a daily basis…it might sync up during drive time…dunno….I have no idea about any of those details….just presenting a workflow idea.

hth…
