So now ask Developers what theirs are. You see where I’m going…

You could put those few shots in a sequence of their own, send that short sequence to SG, do your grade, export the grade for each shot as a Look, then apply those Looks to your original shots on your original timeline.
There’s more than a handful of ways to work with PPro and SG. Whatever’s most comfortable for you. But they’re all good.

Might be weird, but they were serious. That’s all that matters.

You know I was going to mention that I have a FW800 drive that absolutely will not stay connected to my Thunderbolt monitor. So maybe the problem is with the ports Apple has on their displays. That would narrow it down huh? Thunderbolt is equally reliable on my TB Monitor and iMac. Other ports not so much. Save the USB 2 on the TB Monitor.

Alt drag. You’ll get a little green + sign.

Thanks for that. Yeah, I do use G-Raid Thunderbolt drives for editing, but footage gets delivered all sorts of ways these days. I specifically bought the USB 3 seagate cable thing to handle SSDs from people shooting on those Black Magic HyperDecks. Kind of a drag when all you want to do is dump the footage off to your raid and it keeps disconnecting.

It isn’t an FCPX problem. Pretty sure it’s an iMac/adapter problem. I have a Seagate USB 3 adapter that is absolutely useless on a November 2013 iMac. And this was determined before Mavericks so I don’t think the problem is there either. This adapter works fine with GoFlex drives on a Early 2013 Macbook Pro R, but those same drives with that same adapter are wholly unreliable with the iMac. Let me add that any drives that are native USB 3 seem to work fine. I have a couple of those WD My Passport Edge drives that don’t give me any problems at all.
I also use that Seagate T-Bolt sled thing with both computers and it works flawlessly with GoFlex, bare hard drives and SSDs.

Send the whole sequence and only correct those shots you want. It’ll be like you never left.
As far as the hand, use a mask in speedgrade to just change the part you want. -
Export through Media Encoder. No need to change anything in your project. Just output what they want.

You can log, ingest and transfer from Prelude at any time. It starts in Prelude though. That’s where the metadata gets added and it follows the clip into PPro. So if I mark 3 subclips on a single clip in Prelude and then import that clip into PPro I’ll get the source clip and the 3 subs.
