EXPORT BATCH LIST FCP5 quits

I am using FCP 5 and i am trying to export a batch list with just the reel numbers & everytime i go to export FCP quits. I tryed doing this on three different computers 2 of them are G5 & one is a G4. The way i am making the batch list is by selecting all in the timeline and copying it to the project bin & deleting out the repeated reel numbers

I've run into the same problem.
What I found was that if the columns in the browser window didn't fill it completely, it would crash out of FCP. My work around was to add more columns so there wasn't any blank space to the right. I didn't try resizing my browser window to fit my columns... yet.

Export "Batch" list in FCE???

Greetings.
Can you export a "batch list" the way you can in FCP? I would love to be able to print out a log file of my browsers files, but can't figure out how.
Thanks.
Jonathan

No, you can't. The best you can do is take a screen shot of the browser.

Preserve column headings in batch list export (FCP6)

Hi,
I was wondering if it's possible to preserve edited column headings in an exported batch list from FCP6. When I rename the Master Comment 1-4 and Comment A/B headings (Eg to Location, Weather etc) the exported batch list does not preserve these customised names and I have to manually rename the columns.
Any help much appreciated.
Cheers.

How do I export a LIST of "Media Duration" from Premiere CC?

I have over 100 clips in Adobe Premiere. I can easily read their "Media Duration" within the project, but I have to log the media duration to an excel doc and typing out each file's individual media duration would be very timely since I have over 100 files. So I want to export a batch list that includes a "media duration" column. So I select all of my footage, and I press export -> Batch List. And it gives me some CSV files with NO "media duration" column in the document. It only gives me IN and OUT metadata in the CSV file. I want "media duration" metadata in the CSV Batch List. Final Cut Pro 6 and 7 had this feature, but I don't use FCP any more. How can I get Premiere to do this? It doesn't seem like a wild request. Is this something that Adobe Bridge or Adobe Prelude could do? (could they export a batch list with metadata of Media Durations?) I've searched for the answer to this question maybe a year ago and never found an answer. PLEASE HELP!
Adobe, please add this feature if it doesn't exist already. If it does exist, please tell me how to get Premiere to generate a list of Media Durations for me.

Jerry this did not solve the problem for me. I have Media Duration listed in my metadata WITHIN Premiere. I exported the CSV file from Adobe Premiere, and opened it in Open Source. Open source prompted to me to choose some settings, so I made sure to choose Unicode and comma like you said. And the results did NOT give me media duration at all. The only metadata that showed up on my CSV file was IN and OUT points.... What am I doing wrong??? If you look carefully at the last screenshot I provided, columns A through D are the ONLY things that showed up. Those are In and Out points. I don't see media duration at all. PLEASE HELP!

Batch Listing Metadata for Offline Files

Hello all -
I'm using Premiere CC 2014 on OSX. I'm trying to do a batch list export of the metadata for a few dozen offline clips in my project.
Here are the details:
I need the filenames and video ins and outs (NOT the media start and end) for all of my media files to put in a spreadsheet for archival purposes. I don't actually have access to the media itself - just to the project file.
When I do a batch export by highlighting all of the files and going to File>Export>Batch List, the only three columns that export are the filename and the media start and end. I'm hoping to get an export with all of the columns of metadata so that I can narrow it down to just the data I need. Basically, this is the info that I want to be able to put in a spreadsheet:
And this is what I'm getting when I do the batch list export:
Does anyone know if this is possible?
Thanks!

Final Cut Crashes when I try to export a batch list - help!

I'm doing a very large documentary project and each tape has extensive log notes. I use the batch list function to export tabbed text files and convert them to excel - very useful in the creative process when figuring out story structure etc.
But now every time I try to export a batch list final cut crashes - any ideas on how to get around this?
please help.

Are you batch exporting the enrire project maybe?
Might try selecting just your capture bins and trying to batch export those. Could be a sequence or graphic file making it go kookoo.
If the sheer size of it is making FCP choke you could try selecting a single bin and then doing batch export. Do that for all your bins and assemble them in excel.

Final Cut Pro Batch List Exporting

I tried to export a batch list from Final Cut Pro and import it into Excel, and it worked fine, except all the information in the Comment 1 colum isn't there. What could be the problem?

Kristin - sound like you're doing everything correctly. I nmoticed you're somehow on the latest OS but using a very old version of FCPX. I kinda wonder if that might affect your results. Typically people who are running Mavericks would be on a more recent release of FCPX (I think?)
Do you have compressor? Do you see an option to "Send to Compressor"? I know it is possible to do a trial of FCPX so perhaps it might be possible to trail Compressor. If so, try sending your project to Compressor and select a setting and destination for your project and see if that works.
Sometimes when you try something and report back, others who are very experienced will jump in with solutions.

Exporting a batch list from browser

Hello,
I am trying desperately to get a list of all of my file info into a spreadsheet so I can take notes while we view the assembly. Everytime I try to export it FC crashes. It just closes the app. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

Batch lists can only contain clips, not sequences as far as I know... so just select the clips leaving anything else (like filters or whatever) unselected for the batch list.

Exporting a batch list of a FCP Sequence

Hello,
I am trying to find a way to export a batch list of a sequence from FCP, with TC and reels etc. I've exported clips and subclips bins as batch lists without problem for import onto an AVID.
Is there a way, ANY WAY, to export a sequence as a batch list, EDL... ?

If you are transfering a project to an Avid, Automatic Duck is, without a doubt, the best way to go.
If you can't afford that, you can always go the EDL route, select your sequence (make sure all your video is on one layer, or if necessary, export separate lists for each layer) and select Export EDL...

Batch list import is picky about line terminations in the text file

After running into trouble trying to compose a batch list for import, I isolated the issue:
The text file that you attempt to import must have "carriage return" characters at the end of each line. It can have a "carriage return" and a "line feed", but it cannot have only a "line feed".
If you feed Final Cut a text file that does not meet this criteria, it will barf up this error message:
One or more items on the header line do not match valid Browser column headers.
Line terminators have been the cause of many a problem over the years! Typically, MSDOS/Windows systems tend to create text files that use a CR-LF combo. While Mac OS was typically just a CR. And UNIX systems have typically been just an LF. However, since Mac OS X is now a hybrid of older Mac ways, and UNIX ways, you can find mixed situations there. For example, the Mac OS X Text Edit program saves out files with just an LF, and thus can't be directly used to create batch lists for Final Cut.
So, you need to be careful what means you use to create batch list text files.
Hope this helps some poor soul some day!

I am trying to export a batch list created in FCP 5.1 to someone with 6. I follow directions, export and save and then e-mail the file. When he tries to import it, he gets that message ("One or more items on the header line do not match valid Browser column headers"). But I have tried re-importing it from my desktop and have no problem. Is there a problem going with such simple data from 5.1 to 6? Is it possible that the e-mail transmission is corrupting the files?
Thanks for suggestions.

Exporting SharePoint List to Excel it adds special / weird characters

It's probably an escape code but they're not uniform. When exporting a SharePoint List to Excel there is one column that is a multi-select lookup column and upon export between each item in that column there are a few special characters. #68 and #70 in particular I see quite a lot of. What are these escape codes and what would be a good way of filtering them out so they don't end up on the export?

Hi Bouhatsu and Rob,
I'm having the same thing with a filtered lookup. When exporting the list to Excel it adds the ID from the other list in front of the value I want (without me asking for it ...).
Did one of you found a solution to get these ID's out of the export?
Regards,
Jeroen

Exporting a listing of songs

Unfortunately I have to get a new iPod because my current 5th Generation broke. It no longer plays sound, and as I've discovered through another thread this is becoming quite common in the 5th Gens. However, I know that there are songs that I don't have the files for on my current PC. I had downloaded some songs on my old archaic PC, and unfortunately as that PC started to come close to its inevitable demise I couldn't back up files.
So my question is, is there a way that I can sort of export a listing of files currently on my iPod so that I can compare that list with my present Library on my PC and see what I will need to purchase again? In addition I would need to know how I could export that same listing for my iTunes library. Preferably I'd like an Excel format. As an Accounting geek I know how I can compare these two lists rather quickly.
Thanks!
Kelly

You can copy the songs themselves from your iPod to your computer. The transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
The transfer of content from sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:

There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide

Can I open up a FCP 5.0 project in FCP 4.5? If not, help with Batch Lists!

I know that normally one cannot do this, but surely there must be a way. Editors are constantly shuttling between machines, does apple provide no way to do this? If not, it essentially means that if you start a project in 5, you have to always work on that project in 5, even though many FCP stations (at least in NYC) don't have it yet.
What is even more irksome is that when you export a batch list from 5 in an attempt to import to 4.5, it says "some column headings do not match" and it is essentially useless without tweaking in Excel for an hour. Then, when you finally do import a batch list, there are no bins, just raw shots.
Why god, why? Sorry to rant but this sort of user-unfriendly stuff is infuriating when you're dealing with clients and are on tight deadlines. Any advice?

Batch List to EDL

Having already captured media, i am planning to take notes, export a batch list in .txt format so i can re-order items to configure a paper edit/first cut... can i then re-import the batch list and create an EDL to use to re-connect media, to make that first cut? do i use media manager?
thanks

a batch list is all the items in your project. an EDL is a list of edits you've made on video layer1.
One does not necessarily produce the other
you need to do a ruff edit first from your captured material.
are you asking this because someone else is going to do the edit?
If so consult with them.

Sequence names in batch list

Hi there,
I'm looking to take a series of clips and create a database from them. I'd like to export the names of the clips and subclips into a text document, so I can them bring them into the FileMaker Pro template I'm using. However, many of the selects that I've made are actually sequences, due to using the Belle Nuit subtitler program, which adds .tif files to the material as the subtitled text. Since Batch List will not export sequence names, how else can I get the text of everything I have in the Browser? Thanks.

didn't hear anything back, so just entered things manually
