I guess I needed to create a category.
Works now. Thanks much.

So, if I understand you correctly, it sounds like you can sync library files at the finder level without issue?
I’m assuming you are linking to external source files such that your library sync is a minimal amount of data to transfer?
Or do backup applications looks inside the library package for differences to sync?

Sent from various clients for another client’s reel edit.
Turns out I just needed to add .mov to the file name and things reconnected correctly.

Interesting. Didn’t work for me though.
The only difference I can see between the older missing version and the newly importer version of the same clip is the media start and end is different (duration is the same). I’m not sure how that would have changed.

[David Powell] “I’ve done a million of these. You DO want Plural Eyes. You do not want to use FCP’s sync…”
David, in my experience FCPX is very fast to sync very challenging sets of shots. Once for instance on a two hour 2 camera DSLR shoot the audio device failed to start so we had two cameras with dozens of individual clips and non-continuous audio. FCPX used a combination of audio and time to sync the whole thing up perfectly in under a minute. Even the the couple of places where there was no video was properly timed out.
I had problems initially with sync until I figured out how to properly label camera name, etc, and since then everything works as well if not better than Pluraleyes.

[Gary Huff] You might want to tone down the rhetoric because it makes you look very foolish. And this is coming from someone who didn’t go through the public school system.”
[Mitch Ives] …So, while I appreciate your advice, I’ll stick with my “experience based” assessment.”
Mitch, I teach part time CTE classes at a local high school and I can certainly attest to certain failings in our education system, more due to worthless top-down directives coming from folks (from both the educational consulting and political legislative sphere) who have never stepped foot in a classroom. The teachers at my school are evenly divided between conservative and liberal views and all as far as I can see are very professional in their neutralness when it comes to working with the kids.
I have all kinds of perspectives coming out of these kids and I can guarantee you that the “reeducation camps” you mention are primarily based at home, and the failure you reference doesn’t reflect any particular end of the spectrum however you measure it. Moreover, I’d say the “reeducation camps” are web and media based, and reflect the failure of journalism and the fracturing the the “net” into tribal groups who mutually reinforce each others biased views. The primary failure in my view is the break down of mutual respect and the discourse that can result.
Your economic views may be more nuanced than you are presenting here, but your simplistic characterizations of those with differing world views suggests you are as much a victim of such reeducation camps as anyone else.

March 1, 2014 at 3:49 am in reply to: Does FCPX gamma shift footage like all other Apple products?I’ve found that X.264 through Episode Pro is the most true to my original intent.
But I agree with Richard that NTSC still holds true. You really cannot control what your client sees for the most part.
