Can I sync timecode just using two cameras? I was told early on I need additional gear for that. If so is there a guide on how to do it?
Yeah I could just line up the clips on the timeline but was hoping to resolve this.
I copy the media to a media folder so that I have a copy of the media in one folder the original media in another and the library stays small. If then the library gets corrupted I have a FC back up and copies of the original media and render folders all independent. For important projects I’ll have an additional copy of all this on a different raid.

I’ve been importing P2 footage for two years now without an issue including 64gig single clips. But this is the first time I tried using two cards in one cam. So I’m guessing this is the issue. I’m importing into FCP X.
The latest update to FCP X mentioned P2 support and I’m wondering if they broke something. But I only have a single card reader so how would is see a clip that spans both cards. My mac won’t recognize the camera when connected by a mini usb to usb port on the mac thought the manual mentioned you can import footage this way.

there was a recent update for FCP X that involved P2 footage could that have broken something? In any case, can I copy the footage using the camera as a card reader?

I follow this IF it were a compound clip that was updating every instance of its use. Otherwise what is being updated?
And that would assume his other projects also held the same compound clip. I think it’s either a bug or end user error- some key board short cut being engaged or something.
I will say that one of the confusing things in X is what changes to a clip can be made in the browser and what only applies in a timeline.

“If you need them to edit, you can create them and use them for editing, then delete them when you are done.”
you you give me the step by step on this
You finish editing. your timeline is optimized media (pro res).
Now what?
If you export port as a QT master file, what do you then erase and how, and do you still have your project in tack if you want to revisit your edits?
