You can use target mode to transfer the footage to your current MacPro. I just would not try to edit the footage directly in target mode. FW800 is pretty slow, and I would imagine there will be some penalty for target mode, so I would transfer that footage from your G4 to your current MacPro in target mode, and then not use the g4 anymore for storage. Make sense?
-
You could try it, but I don’t think that would be the best way. How much footage is on the g4?

That’s going to fill up fast, especially if you start rendering. At the very least, you can point your scratch disk settings to the SATA so you won’t fill up your SSD.

Which is your boot drive, the SATA drive or the SSD?

Yes, it’s easy. Not reason to delete or reimport. Just click the right button and they show up in the Browser.

Hide clips in the browser in Final Cut Pro for Mac
In Final Cut Pro for Mac, you can hide clips from view in the browser to reduce clutter.

It could be that way, not sure the source of the clips (or the source of the proxy tc in the proxy clips).
Do you have Premiere or Resolve? Drag one of the high res clips in to one of those programs. What does it show for tc? Does it show zeros or does it have other tc?
-
Yes I use the Assume TC to be from > Source TC

Two ways. Video Tool Shed’s QT change will add a tc track to the clips based on the metadata, and FCP will be able to read that tc track. I use this tool frequently, and it’s quick and easy, and relatively inexpensive: https://www.videotoolshed.com/handcrafted-timecode-tools/qtchange/
CommandPost has a Sony TC Repair function: https://commandpost.fcp.cafe/toolbox/sony-timecode/

Just watched a video that said the standalone and studio apps will be the same. Difference will be you will get the iPad versions of the appropriate apps in the subscription. You can still buy all of that apps (for ~$1000) or get them all for $129/year. I guess we will get more clarity as it is physically launched.

I see. Then yes, that is a bit different.
