He’s saying that if the media is already deleted (off-line) the proper sub-clips will not be created to batch.
Something is definately screwy with the Media Manager and the Batch Digitize option.
I’ve just been all around this. I tried every possible combination of settings in FCP’s Media Manager and none of them created more clips than I started with and they were all the same length as the original clips.
I tried to batch the sequence with the same result.
I finally exported an EDL, created a new sequence from that EDL in 4.5 and ran media manager on the sequence. Opened that into 5 and am digitizing away. I probably could have just imported the EDL and batched that, but I’m tired and this seems to work.
