It said conforming just like it usually does in Premiere. I’m starting to think that if this is an automatic process Premiere does when you import footage, and it had not completed conforming in Premiere, then it will conform everything else in Encore.

One more issue. I see that my timecode is now being read in the media browser, but how can I sync my clips based on timecode? I’ve selected the clips, right click to synchronize clips, but the timecode button is greyed out. Am I missing something or going about this the wrong way? I am trying to set up a multicam edit between two cameras.

Maybe I’m not explaining in enough detail or misunderstood spanning. I was shooting on a Panasonic HVX200. I think “segmented clips” more accurately describes what I have on my end. The last clip on card 1 and the first clip on card two, when put together, make up the entire clip. However, Premiere looks at the first clip on card 2 as the same clip as the last clip on card 1 and appears not to have the second part of the clip.

Alex, I’m a little concerned about modifying the card structure. I was hoping there would be a more simple solution like selecting two folders in the media browser and Premiere would recognize the spanned clips and show all my P2 clips in the browser.

No, not on the desk top. Yes, the folders have the full file structure strait from the P2 card (with last clip file). So I have two folders representing two cards on an external hard drive connected via firewire 800.

Hi Alex,

Yes, I did use the Media Browser to bring up the P2 folder. Am I able to select multiple cards (folders) at a time for it to understand the spanning?

Take a look at Carbon Copy Cloner. You can set a schedule to backup your hard drive on a weekly basic if you like.

Thanks. I’ll have to try out Resolve Lite then.

[Oliver Peters] “XML 1.1 with support for primary color grades, effect parameters, and audio keyframes”

Does this mean you have the ability to export out an xml and import this into Color for color grading, and then re-importing the finshed xml back into FCPX? In other words, can I use Apple Color for color grading?

I would take your footage into Compressor and convert into ProRess 422 and match the original frame size.
