I had this same problem with merged clips only showing video source in the exported batch list.

My solution was to select and drag all the merged clips into a sequence, lock audio tracks, delete video, and drag all the audio back into a new bin. That new audio only bin has the audio source, and exports this to a batch list.

You can log into an Excel spread sheet, and then import that into Final Cut Pro as a Batch List and batch capture from that information.

Here’s a link from Larry Jordan’s site that will download an Excel template with instructions:

From the Cinema Tools user manual:

“TK Speed
TK Speed (telecine film speed) refers to the frame rate of the film in the telecine equipment during the transfer to video.”

Film is either transferred at 24 (really 23.976 and 3/2 field pulldown creates 29.97 frames per second).

or

Film is transferred at 30 (really 29.97), being sped up if shot at 24 fps, to achieve a 1 to 1 film frame to video frame relation.

or

Film is transferred at 25, which is a slight speed up if shot at 24 fps, and is usually used when outputting to PAL video.

Here’s someone describing making an alias to the package contents in Iphoto ’08. I don’t know if this will help your situation:

Here’s some info on exporting from keynote:

You can’t lock only one shot on a track.

You can accomplish the same thing by placing that shot on its own track (shift drag it to another track), and locking that track only.

There is a tool called Sebsky Tools

This program has a function called Batch Add Timecode. This will take an ALE file and a selected group of quicktimes whose names match the ALE and modify their timecodes to match.

So if you imported your ALE file, batch captured the clips, reverse telecined new clips at 24, then placed all those clips in a folder, you could use Batch Add TC, and there is a Use Timecode from Column pulldown menu, which gives you the choice of [ALE] TC 24 Start.

Then bring those files with the changed quicktimes back into Final Cut, and they should have proper timecode for conforming. You should be able to check this if you have the original timecode as a burn in.

To get a ballpark figure, you can look at the Editor’s Guild rates for different film budgets. Then you can decide how far under those rates you are willing to go if it’s non-union work.
