OK thx –
Still though, seems odd that deleting the footage makes the render a lot faster than leaving it in.
-
No, I’m sure there’s nothing amiss. I did an A/B test with the footage there underneath and with it deleted, and it took about 5x as long to render the same passage with the footage on V1 & V2 there.
Thx, Alex.

Nice! Good tip.
It would be great if FCP knew what to process, but that’s a good workaround.
Thx

Great – thx – I was starting to mark them “Latest” to do that, but putting a date would help more.
-
Thx for idea – but I don’t think that will stop FCP from updating all sequences to last modified “today” every time I open the project, will it?
-
Thx for the last 2 tips – will implement s/thing – now that I have autosave on every 5 mins & using some of your tips I think I’ll at least have a better protection against losing a lot of good work.
Anytime I render anything I save right after – I’ll just add your suggestions in & I should be ok.
Appreciate it.

Sure – if you have some tips would be interested – thx.

I work with avi files all the time – you can import them without a problem. I have found that they exhibit weird behavior sometimes, like getting out of sync, so I usually render them to a mov first, then import.

Thx – I’ve been using autosaves but they were set to 30 min intervals – I changed to 5 mins.
I still don’t understand why when I save the project manually with command-S that it doesn’t keep that manual save of the project. If FCP crashes, I seem to lose most of my recent manual saves & have to go back to the last autosave, sometimes 30 mins (& a lot of tough keyframing, etc) ago.
Is there any way to make the manual “hard save” actually save in the event of a crash? Maybe “save all” instead of “save”?

Thx for response –
I basically want to make a qt mov of more than 1 file at a time and keep working. Right now, I can use “share” & start the qt creation and keep working. I’d like to do that multiple times & keep working.
