Thanks. It is still processing. At one point it told me it was getting an error, #14 I think, importing a certian clip. The reason, which I sussed out, was that I had the same clip in two different bins. I’d imported it twice for some reason into the original. Anyway, so it gave me the option of letting it continue and just delinking the clip in the timeline. I said yes.
Now, when it’s done, how do I fix this? My thinking was copy the original clip over to the external HD, rename it, then rename it the same thing in the browser, and manually reconnect them. Should that work, you think?
There is another kind of problem: My camera records in AVCHD, so when it imports clips, there are about 100-200 separate clips per memory card. If I am importing five cards, that’s tricky, because all are labelling #1, #2, etc. The way I got around it this time (so there was no overwriting) was to create different projects for FCP for each card, and that way they all went into different folders on the finder, which I then imported separately into FCP. I’m sure that’s not the best way to do this, since they still all have similar names, but I don’t know what the answer is. (It doesn’t seem to be affecting me right now, since FCP is very smartly calling the duplicate names #147-2, #147-3, etc.)
Any help?

I am having real trouble converting to WMV or AVI. FCP freezes when it tries to convert to WMV, and when it converts to AVI you can’t control the size and its huge.
Help.

Thanks. I don’t really want to pay for a converter though.
This is very frustrating. Now I’m hearing from PC users that they can’t even view the h264 clips I’ve got up there.
Help!

Also, that’s using QUicktime Conversion, and frame rate set on Current and the options all on Automatic.
Shoudl I change any of that?

It still comes out at 150 mbs when run on Medium quality, 640 x 360 in .H264.
