Copy Master Clip Warning

okay, here's the mistake I made.
I copy and pasted a section of video from one project to another. i worked on it there and then tried to copy paste it back to the original project and the warning came up:
"A Master Clip already exists for a clip you are adding to this project, but some of its propertis do no match those of the clip you are adding."
then it gives me 3 options to resolve the conflict
"For the existing master clip in this project, use properties from:
1. The Clip you are adding
2. The existing clip in this project
or
3. Create a new master clip and any necessary affiliated using properties from the clip you are adding."
Should I go with 3? I don't care about the original clips/edit. I want to use the new video/edit i edited in the other project. hope this makes sense.
Thanks!

The options listed are pretty clear about what they will do. Choose the option you desire. Which of the three options are you having trouble with understanding? No offense intended, but is English your primary language?

Copy Master Clip dialog

Hi
Is there a way to COMPLETELY (permanently) disabling the "Copy Master Clip dialog" to pop again and again? I use many many master clips moving from project to project, and marking the "Apply to All Added Clips" option is just making it a bit less troubling.
Thank you
Gili

I'll try to explain:
I get this Copy Master Clip Dialog almost every time I paste a clip that was copied from another sequence (and some times it happens when coping and pasting a clip in the same sequence). This dialog has 4 options, and doesn't matter what I do - it keeps warning me that some properties are different (in my case, one clip is marked "GOOD" and the other is not. I work with many clips, all were captured to one project.
It's really very annoying, answering this dialog every second time using the paste command,
Thank you.

Master clip

I was faced with this scenario before but I think I flinched and avoided it. Now I would like to proceed but need to get a translation. I get the box about copy master clip and the preselected box is COPY CLIP which makes sense to me so you have not harm the original MASTER CLIP. Is this a safe way to move forward or do I have other issues to think about?

I am laying an audio clip in a test edit with a variety of mix and match of material. Part of my job has been to create 9min test edit now I am going back to insert new footage. Basically I have taken a nine minute piece through many stages and this number six. I did a hard cut with audio connected to that picture now I want to add other audio. If I add a track will that Master copy clip warning go away? I have at the moment 26 tracks of audio and I don't want to run out as I don't know how long this process will continue. I guess I should know how many audio tracks there are and video tracks as I wont let you know how many of those I have.

Copy "Clip Look" to "Master Clip Look"

I love the Master Clip way of grading, and use it almost exclusively rather than editing each clip one at a time. However, every now and then, I forget to click on the Master Clip before commencing work of adjusting the look, only to realize that I wish I had done all that work to the Master Clip as opposed to the Clip. Is there a way to copy/cut the look I've created on a clip, and paste it onto the Master Clip?
There is a work around: Saving the look of the Clip. Remove the look from the clip. Switch to editing the Master Clip, apply the saved look. That's a bit of a pain. Surly there's a means to do this with fewer steps.
Many thanks.

First, that LUT "exists" somewhere on you machine ... I'd search for it. Find the extension, whether .CUBE or whatever, and hunt that puppy down. Good to know where major assets are located.
Second, there are folders in both PrPro & Ae where LUT's/Looks are "stored", and for my LUT's, I found some only needed to be in Sg's folder-section and traveled nicely, but others had to be ALSO in PrPro's folder ... and a couple had to be in Ae's also before the results appeared in Ae, even though the effects were obviously there in both PrPro & Sg. So after finding it, you might make sure it gets in all their folder files. For your OS there's a blog post or manual page about where the preference/resource/ & etc. files are stored for each program.
Third, especially if that LUT is auto-applied in PrPro, and you have a "standard" tweak you like to do, you could import a file onto a new project's freshly new sequence for it, then immediately go to the DL link to Sg, and in Sg apply your standard "tweak", save as a Look & rename it ... then have that to apply as you wish. Again, if needed, Looks can be copied into each program's folders & invoked/used within that program.
If you did the latter of course ... you might not want it to auto-"fix" the Arri footage on ingestion as you'd want your own tweaked Look applied ... so you might need to figure out how it's auto-applying it. Is there a setting in PrPro's preferences or something for this? I don't know that part ...

Master clip duplication problem

If I copy a master clip in the browser, then paste it, isn't the new clip supposed to independent? The Master Clip colunm is still showing a check beside the new clip.

Actually, in the book Final Cut Pro 5 by Diana Weynand from the Apple Pro Training Series it specifically states that copying and pasting a master clip in the browser will not create a new master clip (p. 270). I tried it in 5.0.x and that is the case, the pasted clip is not a master clip. However, trying it in 5.1.2 the pasted clip does become a master clip.
There were changes made to master clip behavior going from 5.0 to 5.1.2, but this change isn't mentioned in any of the documentation I've seen.
If anyone else is working with the Final Cut Pro 5 book, there's another master clip discrepancy between the book and 5.1.x. On page 273 it says that you will get a warning when deleting a master clip from a project that has been used in a sequence. According to the late breaking news document at http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/FinalCut_Pro_5.0_lbnz.pdf the warning dialog will no longer appear:
Managing and Revealing Master Clips
In previous versions of Final Cut Pro, affiliate clips shared data with a master clip stored in the Browser. If you deleted the master clip, a dialog would appear requesting confirmation that you wanted to break the master-affiliate clip relationship. If you clicked OK, all of the affiliated clips would become independent.
In Final Cut Pro 5.1.2, deleting a master clip no longer breaks the relationship between affiliated clips. Instead, the master-affiliate clip relationship still exists even when the master clip in the Browser is deleted. No dialog appears when you delete a master clip.

Color correcting master clip/parent file

can I color correct the master clip and effect all of the affiliate clips in a timeline? Thanks

Only if you do the cc'ing prior to editing the footage into the timeline.
If the footage is already cut into the timeline, you could simply 'copy' the color correction then use 'paste attributes/filters' to the clips in the timeline.
Alternatively, you could set the color correction, drag it's icon from the viewer, into the browser then drag that to your clips in the timeline. Or, simply drag the icon (found at top left of color correction tab in the viewer...looks like two sheets of paper with a hand over them) directly from the viewer, onto the clips in the timeline.

Font color not preserved in "Duplicate as Master Clip" operation

When I use Duplicate as Master Clip on a title clip, it does not preserve the font color. It's a pain to have to change the font color every time on what is supposed to be a duplicate.
Is there a way to copy and keep the same font color?

Frankly I don't know what you're doing (and I'm not so sure you do either). The only time the Duplicate Master Clip function is available is when an item is selected in the browser. It's not available to a title in the timeline that has been opened from the generators into the viewer. It is only available if the title is in the browser. How and why is this text generator getting into the browser?
Using the procedure you've described the application behaves correctly. The text if it's made as a duplicate master in the browser is a separate instance, and one dos not effect the other.
It really doesn't seem as if you're using the application the way it's designed to be used.
Why is it that when you put a clip into the timeline it has to be rendered? I'm still curious about that.

Making a separate clip from a master clip...

Hi, If I want to separate and rename clips from an original master clip and place them in separate folders, how do I do this without affecting the original master clip?
Do I need to take the cllps into the timeline, or is there a more time effective way of doing this in the viewer?
When I have tried renaming before it seems to rename all the clips including the master by the same name...
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks.

Thanks Caleb.
What I am wondering is do I need to make copy the master each time I want to make an independant clip?
Say I want to use the master to further log clips from that master clip. Do I need to duplicate the master each time?
Will the in and out points always refer to the entire clip in the viewer, or can I make the clip independent to the point that it no longer refers to the master in terms of duration?
I mean, the master clip was 3minutes, and I want 5 seconds from the clip, is there a way to open the new clip in the viewer and have the time line only represent 5 seconds total, rather than 5 seconds selected from 3 minutes?
If not, how do I zoom in on clips I am trimming in the viewer? If the clip is really long, I find it hard to cut precislely within a very short clip...
Thanks for your patience.

Sync multiple clips with master clip

I have a multicam shoot with two stationery cameras continually recording for the entire event and a third camera roaming around, getting dozens of individual clips from different locations/angles. ALL THREE CAMERA HAVE SYNCED TIME CODE.
I don't want to treat this as a normal multicam project, since the third camera has dozens of clips (this means dozens of "camera angles" in a multicam timeline). The best way for me to edit these cameras together in post, in my view, is to sync everything up in a timeline, and do the cutting myself.
In Premiere Pro CC 7.2.2 (33), I can sync the continual recordings no problem, because they overlap. But the dozens of clips created from the third camera have to be placed manually or timecode synced one by one.
I have found a kind of a cheat. I create a multicam sequence using all 90 of my clips (synced by timecode) then open the multicam sequence in the timeline. I then manually drag all 88 clips from the third camera down into one layer.
From here, I have two options: 1, edit as a multicam shoot with only three cameras instead of 90, or 2, Create a new, empty sequence, then copy/paste from the multicam sequence to the empty one and edit manually.
Here's my question, now that I've found a cheat: how can I better sync multiple clips with no overlapping timecode to a master clip with master timecode?

I have identical real time TC for all 3 cameras, and two cams are continually recording. the third is roaming.
Here's a link to a past project: News & Events :: PCC's Christmas Lights Spectacular :: Pensacola Christian College
As you can see, one is locked, one is on a tripod getting closeups, zooms, and pans, and the third is moving around getting various angles. The two on a tripos are left continually recording, but the roamer starts and stops (it's handheld, so it's easier to just start/stop).
@shooternz, could you elaborate on your method a bit? You seem to indicate that you can just drop the third camera's clips in the sequence based on Time Code. I'm not familiar with TC Panels or TC Markers.
As for not all of them being used... I do have several dozen clips left over the course of a half-hour concert... :/

Is it possible to add Master Clip Effect to Merged Clips?

I am currently unable to add a master clip effect to a merged clip in Premiere or Speedgrade. At this point I realize I should have tested this, but it seemed to me that those syncing audio to video might also want to color correct the clips too.
Is there a way to get back to the master video clip for using the MCE? Otherwise I'm back to the clip-by-clip color adjustment (and copy from pervious). Am I wrong in assuming merging clips is more trouble than it's worth?
Thanks,
Rob

At this point of time, MCE will not have effect on merged clips coming from Premiere. It's a known Mac issue we are working on.
Thanks,
Fran

CREATING NEW/Duplicate Master clips

Hi Guys...me again. I've been reading the manual all weekend...and decided that, since I SCREWED with this compressor thing...that I'd try to prevent the problem from happening again. I need to know if I'm on the right track.
I'm working on a video of our show (animal show) and I am creating a dozen or so "mini clips" in the timeline, one for each animal segment, each contains a/b roll, effects, etc. I DO NOT have these clips linked togeter yet...I've left a gap in the timeline between each clip, in order to grab and move them around as I see fit.
I was thinking...(a dangerous past-time for me) that "Gee, Mark, wouldn't it be swell if I could make each of these little animal clips into independent clips, so if I screw up, or have to go back and tweak it later...I don't have to deal with this **** compressor and ripping apart my work? ".
SO...I read the manual, and it seems that I can do this. The option in the menu is to make an independent clip, but when I highlighted my video/auido files in the clip area, and clicked the independent clip button, nothing happened. Does this mean that it recorded it somewhere on my project drive? i could not seem to find it. Also, should I just Modify it by making a New/Duplicate Master CLip?
Does this sound like I'm on the right track?
I'm just trying to prevent my "other" (freakin' compressor) issues from having to happen again.
THANKS AGAIN!
MW

No. That is not what it means.
Make independant clip removes the link between the timeline clip and the clip in the browser that the timeline clip came from. In otherwords, it will keep you from matching back to that clip in the browser.
I don't know what issues you have with compressor, but if you want your segments to be self contained clips, export them as self contained quicktimes (using Export QuickTime Movie... leave it at Current Settings... and set Self Contained). Then you can bring them back in and arrange them in your timeline as you see fit, they will be entirely self contained...

How do i hide a connected clip so that i can see the master clip underneath?

I am attempting to finalise a wedding video. For some reason the XML output gets scrambled in the transition between Final Cut Pro X and Resolve, losing all the in/out points in those clips which were part of two continuous hour-long movies (the master clips). The audio was scrambled at the same time.
So I have reconstructed the clip sequence in Resolve, restoring the correct in/out points and I have removed the audio altogether. I cannot export this back to FCP because the in/out points get scrambled again, so I have exported the timeline as a quicktime movie.
Now, in FCP Pro X, I have the Quicktime movie sitting as a connected clip above the original FCP Pro X timeline. But it is not quite in synch and I guess the edit points are not always frame for frame correct. To match up the new and old timelines I would like to be able to turn the connected clip on and off - but I can't see how to do this and I am not sure it is even possible.
I can skim the master track but this is very cumbersome. Is there any way to turn off the connected clip as one would do in a normal editor with tracks? Or is there a better way to align various points in the two tracks?

Ha. great! Thanks for that. I did know that! But I couldn't find it by searching the manual and I have spent the last week immersed in Resolve so I have forgotten all the FCP shortcuts already...

Trying to Paste Attributes - AUDIO ONLY. I copy the clip I want - then click Paste Attributes - previously a box appeared with options - now nothing appears. Only happening with AUDIO attributes. Anyone else experiencing this?

I am trying to Paste Attributes of AUDIO ONLY - from one clip to another audio clip. These are the settings for the VOICE OVER on my 15 minute project. This has worked before. However now I copy the clip I want o use the attributes from - then I selct PASTE ATTRIBUTES. In the past a new dialogue box would appear and offer me the opportunity to select the attributes or effects I wanted to COPY and PASTE. Hoever now - there is NOTHING.
I also want to REMOVE the ATTRIBUTES from 287 clips - but apparently I can only do this one at a time? That seems like the most ridiculous thing in the world. Certainly this can't be true? Is there no way to remove ALL Attrributes from all of the clips at the same time?
Anyone? Anyone?

I cannot reproduce this. It is working as expected here: select a clip, copy, select another clip (or clips), paste attributes, and I get the usual window - this works for audio only clips as well as other clips.
I suggest you try deleting FCP X preferences with Preference Manager and try again.

Select the clips you want, and delete the effects in the Inspector by selecting and hitting the delete key.

Is this a bug?: copied movie clip has wrong frame rate and ruins the main movie's sync

Hello,
I am trying to copy a movieclip with a frame rate of 30 frames per second to a movie that has a frame rate of 30 frames per second. Both movies are actionscript 3 movies. When I do this, my copied movie clip's frame rate reverts to 12 frames per second and all my audio synched animation is trashed. Then when I change it back manually to 30 frames per second it makes my main movie's stage animation go crazy at full possible speed and the audio is all out of sync. I have not set export for sharing or action script on this movie clip. I've tried other movie clips that are 30 frames per second and it is all crazy!
Is this a bug? What can I do? I've got 100s of movie clips I need to make. I can't keep remaking them just because flash has a screw loose. I'll go crazy!
-theGibler

Oh sorry I goofed! My main time line is 12 fps! I can't belive I didn't see this before.
