    OS X. As soon as I touch ANYTHING, the marker window goes blank. If I touch a marker, the playhead jumps to that spot, but marker window goes blank. If I touch the timeline, the marker window goes blank. In order for it to repopulate, I have to close it and reopen.

    What’s up with the Marker window tho? As soon as I click on a marker, all the others disappear, and I then have to close and re-open it to get my markers back. I just want a simple list that I can click on to jump to a marker of my choice, and if I don’t like that take I want to be able to click to another one (they’re not consecutive sound bites, so timeline sequential navigation isn’t the most useful right now).

    I know you can put a sequence in the source side and edit with it, but I wanted to be able to see the source side sequence while making my in/out selects like I’very gotten used to doing in Media Composer. Copy/paste is probably the closest I’ll get.

  • Guys,

    For some reason I thought this copy / paste wasn’t working before, but it is now, so I think problem solved. Thanks.

  • Alternately, how can I just set an in/out like the attached image, and just copy the two video tracks and top audio track so I can paste it into another sequence?

    The feature was shot with two cameras simultaneously. Sound was recorded separately. An assistant synced all the footage and sound (merged clips, in Adobe terminology). I now have two ‘merged’ clips for each take: camera A and camera B. I now want to take those two clips and group them for multi-cam editing, standard practice in tv and feature film work.

  • Anybody? I’ll have to do splits soon too on a feature I’m cutting. I typically use Avid, where this sort of thing is a no-brainer and has been done for 25+ years. It startles me when I see and hear of these kinds of simple workflow hiccups.

    Honestly, I assumed there would be no client monitor output from FCP 7 given that it is no longer listed on the officially supported list, and users were reporting as much on various forums. I’ll be re-installing FCP Studio this weekend and I’ll test it first hand.

    I’m mostly happy, because Media Composer and Pro Tools both seem to be working very well, and that’s my bread and butter.

    Yeah, that’s what I did too. Cloned my system and just went for it. Haven’t yet installed FCP 7. Others said it works too. However, I can’t find a way to get client monitor output, as both BM and Matrox have dropped FCP 7 support from their latest drivers. Guess if I ever have to use it again, it’s strictly computer monitoring, huh?

  • Olive’s spot on. If your students hope for work in the network episodic field or major Hollywood style feature films, the MC is the way to go as it’s still dominant. Otherwise he’s exactly correct, PP will do everything they need and they’ll be well served by knowing it.
