  • No, it cannot, since that would make no sense.

    You can simply paste the content into a new title project and save that.

    December 5, 2016 at 3:05 pm in reply to: Anyone upload to Vimeo here?

    I upload A LOT to Vimeo. Just recently over 60 Clips. Didn’t have that issue with any of them. That would REALLY suck, too, if I did, because that’s the only reason I even use the direct upload (wish it would save a copy to disk as well!), because I use extensive tagging, descriptions etc. that would kill me to have to redo manually.

    Hope it figures itself out!

    [Noah Kadner] “Might want to take a basic tutorial in X”

    Unfortunately I have not seen any basic tutorials that actually mention the “Override connections” function, which is what he needs. But other than that, getting actual structured training (e.g. Ripple Training) is the best use of one’s time before getting into X that there is, yes.

    [Jeremy Garchow] “Hold the tilde key and make your move.”

    That’s assuming you’re on a U.S. keyboard, yes. If not, search the Command Editor (⌥⌘K) for “connections” to find out what the shortcut is.

    [Walter Soyka] “why bins are bad, but events are good.”

    I remember anyone saying anything about bins (or whether they are “bad” or not). I know I didn’t.

    Best question yet. ????

    [Oliver Peters] “I agree that’s an issue with FCPX.”

    I’m sorry, but for someone who claims to use all the above equally, I find it amazing that you could suggest that any of that is somehow an FCP X-only issue with a straight face. If anything, then FCP 7 for one was by far worse and constantly I hear the exact same complaint from PPro users. Lag and unresponsiveness past a certain project size and/or time of use.

    Seeing that Premiere literally needs an easy 10 times longer for a restart to resolve it obviously makes it that much more of an issue in the end, too.

    [Joe Marler] “Today you can use FCPX perfectly well without any events, although events may have some residual value besides a comfort blanket of familiarity.”

    I couldn’t disagree more. I at least was initially FAR more confused by the library-then-event-then-project structure than I would have been if there had just simply been a library filled with media and projects. So I’d say you’re completely backwards on that one. But now that I understand the logic and reasoning behind it, I most definitely would not see getting rid of events within the library in any way as an advancement let alone improvement. Quite the contrary. And never mind that if you only always use ONE event per library, then there is ZERO difference to not having an event at all. Whether you select the library or the event, you’re always seeing everything within. So I have now idea how removing the event would change anything for the better aside from making other people’s lives more difficult that have understood what events are good for. So I’d say it boils down to “Don’t get ’em? Don’t use ’em.” Absolutely nothing changes for you.

    As I said before, I ask do episodic work and having library—>season and event—>episode (plus an additional event containing all the needed title animations, stingers etc. for all) is a brilliant way of working that no other NLE can offer me. Not even close once keywords etc. come into play as well. All in one single neat package at the Finder level! Getting rid of events would therefore be a completely stupid move imho.

    And all that is aside from the fact that I was far from serious when I suggested getting rid of folders in the Finder, since that would clearly be just as stupid and counterproductive for pretty much the exact same reasons… which was kind of the point. ????

    December 2, 2016 at 5:27 pm in reply to: Why do Events still exist?

    [Oliver Peters] “This was not the case in a Library I created the other night. I had missing clips that had disappeared from the only Event, but were still visible in the Library. I was able to remove all clips from the Event, yet they stayed in the Library. I then moved (or copied, don’t remember) back into the Event.”

    Then something is clearly going very very wrong on your end, since that simply can’t (shouldn’t) be. As Bret already stated, there is no way to only have clips in the library. They can only be in an event IN the library. Selecting the library will show you everything of every event in that library. If you’re seeing anything else, well…

    And by the way, for the sake of memory usage and speed alone, getting rid of events would be a horrible idea. Since otherwise FCP would load the entire content of a library upon starting up. This way it is only loading the content of whichever event/project you have selected (but scanning the rest on open to check links, yes). Unless of course you do e.g. a search at the library level, in which case it reads everything i.e. projects etc. as well. I’m sure everyone has had to wait for the progress bar to finish when doing that. There you go.

    Aside from that I find events a very welcome and very logical organizational tool. I do an episodic. Instead of making one library per episode, which would make for a complete mess, I make one library per season and one event per episode. Exponentially better and easier to handle.

    I also don’t see how simply removing a single level from the overall hierarchy could have somehow posed a problem for Apple when it came to 10.1. I find the notion that the fact they’re still there somehow wasn’t on purpose rather amusing if not, in the context of Apple, plain silly.
