Thank you both. Shane – I finished watching your very helpful tutorial just before you posted your reply and that has shed a lot of light on how simple this is and I think it could be the way we go on this one.

I didn’t fully explain my reason for thinking of Final Cut server. I have been doing a little bit of research into it today, so I have a basic understanding of what it is used for. We have been talking about setting up a system that allows us to catalogue our footage in a searchable way that lets us use it across multiple projects. I am lucky enough to work at a company that has an incredible archive of footage but not very well organised so this would be the start of a longer process.

FC server creates Proxy files automatically from your footage right? Can you use these Proxy files for an offline?
