You can probably use any database or spreadsheet program to do this. There are some specialized ones. I remember one called Cumulus. Try searching https://www.publishingperfection.com/ to see what they offer.

“when i edit the speed in a clip in the timeline the rest of the clips in the timeline kinda snappes with the edited clip.”
Ok, what do you mean by “snap”? I think most of us are assuming that you mean clips are rippling to the right when you slow down a clip & rippling to the left when you speed up a clip. That’s actually the way it’s supposed to work. Slowing or speeding a clip makes it longer or shorter, FCP doesn’t adjust your in or out points to compensate. That’s your prerogative as the editor.
Personally, I just trim the clips back using the Ripple tool, or redo the edit using Fit To Fill.

“Is commotion still around? I looked at the pinnacle site and didn’t see much.”
Are you kidding? Pinnacle isn’t even around anymore! They’re being bought by Avid.

[FX Bear] “You will need to export your clip into another program such as After Effects or Combustion. If you have Photoshop you could export your clip as a numbered sequence and import each frame seperately, but strongly recomend using the first option.”
There’s also an open source app called Cinepaint (formerly known as Film Gimp) that will do this. It’s based on (or inspired by?) an old unix version of Photoshop, & has a Flip Book feature with Onionskinning. You’ll have to export your sequence as a series of stills, & then use QT to turn the finished stills into a clip when you’re done.

From the page for BMD’s Decklink HD Pro: “All these incredible features are packed into a high speed single slot PCI-X 133 MHz card, and for standard definition only work DeckLink HD Pro can also plug into slower 33 or 66 MHz PCI slots.”

[solonlquinn] “And I do not know what my sequence settings are. “
[solonlquinn] “I am unable to figrue out how to bring down footage into my new sequences without having them come out in a medium box liek fashion with black on all four sides of the image. “
Near as I can tell, you don’t seem to have put much effort into learning the specifics of how FCP works. FCP came with a set of manuals & tutorials. I’d recommend that you run through the tutorials, & then start going through specific sections of the manual for anything that’s still not clear.
