Yes, you can do it. Select your new Project > Click on the small Key icon below the main menu bar > enter your keywords in the window that opens upon your click.

Hi Craig,

You may get your project back by restoring a FCP Library Back-up

Hope this helps.

Pablo

If you asked your vendor, then you already have an answer. I suggest you try lenofx.com for very efficient and costumizable plug-ins.

Pablo

You may try selecting your audio and video tracks in the Browser, then go to the Menu Bar > CLIP > Synchronize Clips.

Really hope this solves the issue.

Pablo

Also, it will help us give a better answer if you tell us what version of FCPX, processor and Mac OS you are using.

Hi Jenn,

You can select all subtitles and make the changes you want at once.

Hope this helps.

Hi Francesco,

You can change the frame rate of your audio files in Apple Compressor.

Hope this helps,

Hi David,

Yes, what a bad idea to have a pointer with two points. To be consistent, Apple should use the blade image for the ‘Blade” edit option. Otherwise, they must rename it “Scissors”.

There is a “Provide final cut pro feedback” inside Final Cut’s first menu. I will do that.

Cheers!

Hi Bill,

I’m possitive that you can capture composite video directly with your UltraStudio HD Mini. The “Y” component input is the one that accepts the composite video signal. If you have RCA cables, then you should get an RCA to SDI adapter and 2 RCA to 1/4″ audio adapters as well.

See the attached graphic from the blackmagic website.

I guess all you need to do is connect your VHS Player to your UltraStudio HD Mini using the breakout box cable analog connectors that come with it. Then use Blackmagic Desktop Video to capture your videos and then import them into FCP.

Hope this helps,

Pablo

Let’s say that you have created a Project called Video1 inside a Final Cut Pro Library named also Video1, which is located in your SSD drive. I understand that you have backed this same Library up on your HDD drive.

What I suggest is that in FCP you follow this route: File > Open Library > From Backup, and choose your Library “Video1” located in…

My point is that if you open your Library “From Backup” you will be directing FCP towards the new location where your backup was copied. And when you open your Project located inside this Library, there shouldn’t be any problem with your media, unless the media hasn’t been saved to the Library.

Hi David.

I understand that you are backing the FCP Library up on your HDD. Have you tried to open that library via File>OpenLibrary>From Backup?

Hope this helps.

Hi Ken,

I think the Blackmagic UltraStudio HD Mini is what you need. It has a whole array of analog audio and video conectors for digital capture. You may need and adapter for the thunderbolt 3 connector though.

Hope this helps,

I have a better suggestion. When editing a video, let’s say I name my Project (timeline) “Amber” and send it to my client once finished. If I need to make changes, I always create or duplicate my Project to “Amber Rev.1” or Rev.2 subsequently, etc. This way I never loose my previous Project (timeline) reference, in case the client later decides a…

Hi Ben,

You should duplicate your “timeline” and keep it open as a reference while making the changes.

Hope it helps,

Pablo

In order to get efficient help you should provide essential information like video format used, timeline settings and main computer hardware. Also, what video format are you exporting to.

Cheers!

You have to accept that the Canon T6 is an entry level camera that records very good video for the price. But it is .mp4 video (already compressed). To achieve the professional look, and pristine video quality, you need to record with a professional video camera or dslr. These cameras use a larger sensor, better optics, and record raw video or use…

Hi Michael,

Your project looks like one that should be edited using proxies. This will end your nightmare.

Cheers.

Hi Phil,

Do you mean that when you select your clip in the FCPX’s Browser, the Info Inspector shows that it is a 29.97 fps clip?

Pablo.

You’re welcome.

I’m glad it also worked for you.

Hi David,

Changing the suffix or your .mov file to .mp4 may work for you. It does it all the time for me.

Greetings,
