Subclips

I have used Protools professionally since Mac OS 6.
I am new to FCS.
reading manual, divided clip into subclip in viewer about ten sec after start of clip.
dragged new subclip into timeline.
audio of subclip starts at beginning of clip, not at 10s marker start of subclip.
audio and video are not in sync.
went back to manual to check method three times.
what gives.

  • Unable to Subclip HDV footage

    I'm having trouble subclipping HDV footage. When I match frame the footage in the timeline the make subclip option is greyed out. Anybody have any idea why FCP is doing this? Thanks in advance
    Intel - FCP 6.0.4

    I just got off the phone with a friend of mine who was having the same problem as you. Although you say the camera playback is set properly, please recheck this. go into your camera's playback menu>menu>standard set>VCR HDV/DV. Unplug your firewire from the camera. Make sure camera is set to HDV NOT auto. replace firewire cable. Now open FCP. Go in Audio/video settings>A/V devices (farthest tab on right). In box for playback edit to tape different from video output (make sure it's checked) mirrored (checked) Video playback 1080i50, Audio HDV. I hope that works now.

  • Why are subclips going into wrong bin?

    When I open a clip from a bin and create a subclip, I expect that subclip will land back in the bin the master clip came from, but this is not always happening. Sometimes the subclip appears in the correct folder, and sometimes it shows up in the higher level master folder, or in some other folder, almost random.  Is there some protocol to follow to make sure the subclip always appears in the folder of its master clip?

    "When multiple instances of the project panel are open" ...
    Perhaps I don't understand this. I've never (to my knowledge) opened a second instance of the project panel ... and yet several times the subclips "disappeared" ... only to find that they'd somehow landed in a parent folder. This is with the project panel in the 'standard' lowere left quadrant, only one folder open and showing.
    It's puzzled me when it happens ... double-click on a file, it goes to the source monitor; set i-o, right-click "create subclip" ... sometime it goes in the folder it came out of, occasionally to the "upper" folder.

  • Any way to take a subclip & generate a new original file of subclip's length without recapturing?

    When I CAPTURE a large length of footage (say 30 mins) and then I import this footage into my Pr Pro CS 5 Project, I will typically extract a section of that footage into the timeline using the Source Monitor.  I will throughout an edit end up using multiple portions (subclips) of this original footage.  Sometimes I will make specific subliclips, sometimes I will just use different instances in the timeline of different lengths.
    What I would like to be able to easily do is to then create a new original file for each edited clip so that each piece is not referencing the same full portion of the originally captured footage.  I am trying to create smaller files that are referenced.
    In other words, I guess you could say that I am looking for a way to "capture" in reverse?  Rather than having to go back and recapture just that portion that is now edited as a subclip, is there any way to do this easily in reverse? 
    It would be ideal if there was a command that took your subclip and simply created a new original file that was now simply the length of your final edited clip or piece in the time line.
    I am trying to reduce the size of the original file having to be referenced by Premiere Pro each time to speed up the editing process, but without having to go back and redo the capturing process.

    You didn't indicate what sort of footage you're working with, but depending on what it is, you could use the Project Manager to create trimmed clips and a new project file that references those trimmed clips. You could then delete the original media after confirming that what you wanted has actually happened.
    Go to Project > Project Manager, select your relevant sequences, and the Create New Trimmed Project option. You want to tick the Exclude Unused Clips option, and set the Handles option as you'd like; this controls how much media is available before the in point and after the out point of each clip. When you've set your options you can click the Calculate button to get a rough idea of how much storage space you'll be saving. Pick your destination and let the process work.
    Note that this will only work with certain types of media; for example, MPEG-based assets will just be copied as they cannot be cleanly trimmed due to their interframe nature. Read Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 * Archiving and Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 * Trim or copy your project for more details.

  • Is there a way to disable project window scrolling after creating a new subclip?

    I am often editing short aftermovies from parties and my workflow is as follows:
    1) Capture and stash movies in a single folder (there's very little possibility for planning particular shots or tagging videos on the fly)
    2) Ingest media into Prelude and go through the clips identifying useful footage, subclipping and tagging
    3) Rough cut (optionally) and fine cut to music in Premiere
    Now step 2 is where I'm being really slown down. I would ideally like to go through all the media as quickly as possible. Usually there's just one subclip per a clip.
    However every time I add a subclip the whole project window just scrolls down and focuses on the new subclip and to continue to the next clip I have to scroll up, tediously look for it or search for it by numbers.
    I thought that ordering the clips by date would solve this problem as I was expecting the focus to go to the subclip which should appear right next to the current clip. However there's an obvious bug in Prelude there. When you add a subclip while having Date created ordering on this happens: Subclip is first created at the bottom as with User ordering and the window focuses on that, then the subclip instantly moves after the current clip but the view doesn't refocus, leaving me in a possibly even worse situation.
    It would be awesome to either (or all):
    Remove the focus bug and refocus on the reordered subclip instantly
    Add an option to disable the automatic scrolling of the Project window
    Add keyboard shortcuts to go to next/previous clip
    Add more filtering options to the current Subclip only such as Clip only, Non-tagged clip only, Tagged clip only (ideally through some custom filter option with checkboxes so you could tailor them to your needs)
    Still it's a huge step up from the Premiere's multi window media organization nightmare but certain (possibly quite common) use cases are still very unrefined.
    If any of the above mentioned options are in there already, please let me know, thanks
    By the way when talking about Ordering related bugs, try creating a new Bin when having Date created sorting on. The Bin appears with its rename on, then it jumps to the top and voila you're renaming the last clip in the list. Like what the hell guys, do you even test the UI or is the CC turnaround too quick for that?

    Hi, not sure if you'll see this post but the option has been moved to the 'Universal Access' Preference pane in settings.
    This drove me utterly mad until I realized that.
    Hope this helps!

  • To subclip or not to subclip, that is the question?

    Hello All,
    As I continue to gain experience with FCP, one of the consistent challenges I run into is having created subclip of my master footage that is pretty close to what I want in my final production. The net result of that is when I go to add transitions, or work with the View Edit feature, I don't have much in the way of extra footage with which to work.
    I believe one choice I have is to create my productions with cuts taken from the master, and then added to the timeline. The result will be (in the browser) many copies of the master, but simply containing different in and out points.
    My question is whether this is a problem. I suppose I've avoided this approach as it seemed like it was less precise, and took up more disc space (I know, probably not a real issue, but coming from a time when hard drives were 20 MB, I'm stuck with an old mindset).
    Your thoughts would be appreciated.
    DG

    I don't see any rational argument against using Subclips.
    *1) On Roll Edits and Transitions*
    If you make the In an Out points for your subclips at the same place you would put the In and Out points when capturing from tape, the created clips will be the exact same length and the ONLY way you will have the option to extend the edits past where the take ends is if you had Subclipped and then Remove Subclip Limits.
    *2) On Organization*
    FCP allows you to organize and name Subclips in the exact same manner as Master Clips; if the organization of Subclips is jumbled and confusing it is because you are not using the same method of organization for the Subclips as you would for Master Clips... which there is no logical reason not to. Treat them as the same thing.
    *3) Why I Subclip*
    I'm working on a short narrative film right now with an assistant editor whom I have never worked with. I had captured, logged, and organized the Master Tapes before handing the project off to my assistant. When I got the project back from him I quickly noticed he did a half-assed job and I had to go through the daily continuity log with the Master Tapes making sure I subclipped the takes he had missed. This job was much easier to do from FCP and the captured Master Tapes rather than having to rent a deck and go though the actual Tapes.
    *4) How I Subclip*
    The best way I have found to make Subclips is not the In and Out method but rather using Markers. Simply open a Master Tape Clip and put a Marker at the beginning of every take. Next to the Master Tape Clips in the Browser will be a grey arrow that when expanded shows all the Markers made in that Clip. Select the Markers in the Browser and go to Modify > Make Subclip (⌘U) and BAM you're whole tape is Subclipped. The Markers will stay on the Master Tape Clips after you make the Subclips so if you ever need to resubclip a take, change the length of a subclip, or anything of the sort it is extremely easy.
    That's why I would suggest using Subclips rather than not. The only reason I could see not wanting to Subclip is if you have limited Hard Drive space and you only plan on capturing printed takes.

  • Can you use an XML file to make Subclips for you?

    Hi everyone,
    I know this is a bit of a long-shot, but I am wondering if I can use an XML file(made after logging a few tapes, but before capture) to make subclips for me?
    Basically I have a painful project with 2 tapes i had to capture separately as 1 long individual clip each due to time-code breaks, but as i did first Log & Capture as usual (only to later find it wouldn't batch capture) i didn't want my hard work to go to waste!
    Hope I explained that clearly enough,
    Adam
    Message was edited by: Chocboy

    I'm assuming you captured using the non-controllable device setting and have the clip including TC breaks and blank areas etc.
    Try this:
    Load the clip into the Viewer and play it. Press M to set markers wherever you want them.
    If you want to give the marker a more decriptive name, press M a second time whilst the playhead is positioned on the marker. A dialog will open with text input fields. Or, click the marker in the Browser, then click the marker’s name to select it. You can now change the name.
    Drag in the Browser to select all the markers or click the first one, then shift click the last one.
    Choose Modify > Make Subclip. This will make all the subclips in one go and if you gave your markers new names, your subclips will use them.
    The subclips appear in addition to the original clip with the markers. You can rename the subclips, if you want. You can review the subclips, deleting any clips you might not need. If you do remove unused clips, you can use the Media Manager to remove your unused footage from disk, leaving the media for your remaining subclips alone.

  • Can't add markers to SOME subclips but can add them to others

    Hi. First time poster, I hope I'm not accidentally posting this in the wrong section. I have scoured the discussions for this problem or I wouldn't dry your eyeballs with this.
    Suddenly, right in the middle of editing, I can no longer ADD markers to some specific clips in my bin. It is the oddest thing. In anticipation of questions, I'll give every detail I can conjure, I hope I'm not being too verbose but it's a very puzzling situation.
    - The "problem" subclips, to which I can suddenly no longer add markers, at one point had completely normal marker functionality. There's pre-existing markers on these clips that are now no longer editable (with the M or ` key), and every marker menu item under mark -> markers is greyed out, EXCEPT for "add" and "delete all..." neither of which work on the problem clips anyway. These are all functions that work as usual on the non-problem clips.
    - Within the problem subclips, I can still navigate to the next and previous markers, with shortcut keys and menu commands. But when I hit M on a marker in a problem clip, nothing happens. And when I hit M in a "blank" space in a problem clip, again, nothing happens, i.e., no marker is added. Nor do the menu commands pertaining to markers function.
    - the clips in question are subclips, but so are the clips that have absolutely no problem with marker functionality.
    - the clips not having this problem, which outnumber those that do, are not only in the same format, same media, same compression, from the same tape, captured in the same session and on the same drive but are even from the same "master clip" as their problematic siblings.
    - the master clip in question has normal marker functionality.
    - brand new subclips from that master clip have normal marker functionality, even if their in and out points are identical to the problem subclips...but then again, that's not surprising, since the old ones had "normal births," too.
    - if I copy and paste the problem subclips in the bin, the copies have the same problem.
    - if I "duplicate as new master clip" the problem subclips in the bin, the duplicates have the same problem.
    - I can still edit the markers on the problem clips by right-clicking the drop-down list of markers IN THE BIN and selecting "edit." I can also delete them there by selecting them in the bin and hitting the delete key.
    - doing so does not enable me to add more markers. Which reminds me:
    - I am not doing something weird with markers - even if there was a quota on markers, I imagine I'm nowhere near it. it just seems like I'm the "crazy marker guy" because you're reading six pages of me talking about markers. I'm not the crazy marker guy. I'm an ordinary man with a crazy marker problem. I use markers the way you do. I mark the beginnings of takes and noteworthy reactions, etc....there's maybe an average of 15 note markers in each subclip, but plenty of "functioning" subclips from the same master clip have more markers than the problem ones.
    - yeah, I quit and restarted FCP. And my computer. Yeah, my "M" key works (look how many times I've used it), My mouse is plugged in, I combed my hair, my software's not stolen, I purged my render files and, believe it or not, I only had one coffee this morning.
    - I haven't been working with FCP so long that I can say I have or haven't had this problem with non subclips. I've only done a couple projects with FCP so far...this one is not unusual in comparison, but this is definitely the first problem I've ever had with FCP.
    - If you have read this far, you are hero not just to me, but to all of humanity.
    - if you have the solution, you are a God or I am an idiot, I am praying for either to be the case and I'm not picky. Seriously, thanks in advance to anyone that wastes their brain on this.

    Figure I may as well update this thread with the different things I try. I know this makes for compelling reading and I don't want to deny you the story.
    - I deleted the Final Cut plist file from the preferences folder, which not only had no impact on the problem, but no apparent impact on Final Cut, which is weird, but, one riddle at a time.
    - I went through my autosave vault on the scratch disk, which deepened the confusion for me: each of the three problem-clips had a specific time before and after they became frozen to marker activity. I loaded the autosaved project from 11 am, for instance, and apparently, at that time, the most recent clip to become marker-locked was still working fine, but the other two weren't. A few hours earlier than that, only one of them had the problem, and at about 6:30 this morning, the problem didn't exist.
    An important thing to note is that the order in which these clips became marker-locked follows the order in which I went through them, marked their takes and moved on.
    I didn't notice the problem with any of them until much later - when a creative shift prompted me to add some new marks, at which point I realized that for three of my clips, I couldn't.
    So, if this problem is being triggered by me, it's happening not during actual marking (I would have noticed), but during the things I do with marked clips, namely shuttling through them with the JKL keys, jumping to each of the markers, setting in and out points and inserting them into the timeline.
    Is there some key it's possible for a less than attentive, sleep deprived, FCP newbie to hit, during that activity, that "locks" the current clip to the addition and adjustment of markers? As sensitive as my ego is, I really want this to be my fault so I can learn the problem and avoid it forever. I don't want to think there's some supernatural time bomb glitch in the one copy of FCP I bought that causes random clips to slowly dry like cement after which they can never be marked again.

  • Best way to organise multiple large clips and hundreds of subclips

    Situation
    I have the task of producing a suite of short 2 minute videos comprising highlights of several hours of footage in multiple large files.
    I want to extract and manage the highlights in a non-destructive way and organise them according to subject matter.
    I would then use these in several projects to create the highlights videos required.
    I am using Adobe CC, so it's CS6.
    My approach so far is to:
    1. Import all the footage into a single project as individual large clips
    2. Scrub through each clip, set in/outs and extract to subclip, store in subject matter bin
    My questions:
    1.  if I go back to the original footage and edit it, it doesn't seem to flow through to the subclips. How do I make the subclips inherit the attributes of their parent? (e.g. could be sound, colour, etc)
    2. how do I access these highlights bins from another project?
    3. is this the best way to handle my situation?
    Thanks for your input.
    Ric

    I suppose applying the effects to the source clip and rendering out a new source file is one way of doing it.  Just be very careful that you don't compress the output.  And, of course, it will double the amount of hard drive space.  I'd still make all the sub-clips first and use the "paste attributes" command.  I think you can even lasso a whole bunch of clips and paste attributes to all of them at once (they have to be in the timeline, though - not the project panel).
    It shouldn't take an awful lot of hard drive space to duplicate projects.  Just duplicate the "prproj" file, not the whole projects folder (and certainly not the source material).
    Here's a screen shot of my set-up for a complicated, 5-camera shoot of a play:
    The original project (syncing all the cameras up) is 1 MB, each successive archive gets a little bigger but the current project is only 3.8 MB.  I would imagine if you are deleting bins and sequences for the mini-projects, the prproj file would actually get smaller than the original master.
    Okay.. so here's the mantra about non-tape based video... First you back up the card (including the complete folder structure) onto an archive drive.  Next you copy this folder onto an external or RAID or other "real" archive drive.  Then (and only then) do you start editing the material!
    Ideally, you need at least three, physically separate harddrives (not partitions) in an editing station (this is true Windows or Mac).  One drive for the operating system and applications only (no media or projects or anything!).  One for working projects (each project in its own folder) where everything except the source video is stored.  And finally one for the source video.  On my system my OS drive is Tardis ('cuz I'm a geek!).  I have a Projects drive for projects (duh!) a Scratch drive for working video files and an Archive for "finished" projects waiting delivery and back-back-ups of my SD cards.

  • SUBCLIP CREATES OUT OF SYNC AUDIO AND VIDEO

    I have a problem which I hope someone out there can help me solve. I just recently upgraded to FCP 6.0.4.
    In attempting to create a subclip, I follow these steps: set in and out points for the clip on the timeline, select the video and audio, link the clip's video and audio, double click the clip from timeline to bring subclip into browser, make subclip (modify > make subclip).
    After naming the subclip, I double click on it to bring it into the browser for viewing. Here's where the problem comes in.
    The duration of the subclip is always much too long. I noticed that the subclip's in point is always incorrect. It is always the starting timecode of the audio from the timeline (e.g. 00:01:05:00). The ending timecode is always correct though (i.e. the out point).
    The subclip plays the audio at the beginning of the clip, but the video is blacked out until the very end of the subclip, at which time the audio is silent as it has already played out.
    Does anyone know why I'm getting these bizarre subclips and what I need to do to correct this problem?
    Your help is much appreciated.

    In what app?
    Have you restarted or reset the device?

  • Audio disappear at the end of my merged subclips after a relink

    Hello everyone,
    I am currently experiencing a new bug I've never seen before. Let me explain.
    *1. The project of my workflow*
    - I digitize HDCAM dailies (23,98) at low resolution with a DV codec
    - I use the "Cinema Tools Reverse Telecine" to have the clips in 23,98 instead of 29,97
    - I merge the video with the sound (which is 29,97)
    - I create a subclip from the merge to remove the unwanted black at the beginning and the end of the clip, because the audio file is longer than the video file
    *2. The problem*
    Because I had to move my mediafiles to another hard drive, I had to relink them. The relink worked well, until I discoverd I couldn't hear the end of the sound of my merged clips. At 3/4 of the clip, the audio just stops. But if I go in the audio tab of the clip, I can see the waveforms.
    +In green the part I can hear, in red the part I can't hear when I play the clip.+
    Really weird. It's like FCP doesn't consider the audio anymore.
    If I drag the clip to a timeline, it appears like this:
    +I can't extend the audio in the timeline, even if it exists.+
    *3. The workaround*
    I tried relink one merged clips several times in a row. Each time it loose a bit of the end of the audio. In five relink, I have no audio anymore.
    The only option is to remove subclips limits. There I have my audio back. But if, for whatever reason (and it can happen in a project) I have to relink, it will be the same problem over and over.
    I don't really understand why this is happening, but I think it might be related to the 6.0.2 update, because I've never seen this bug before.
    *4. The questions*
    Does anyone had the same problem?
    If there is something unclear in my explanation, please ask me precise question about it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Yes it is the correct workflow, I've done it before.
    I found a workaround: instead of transcode the clips I digitized from 29.97 to 23.98 first, I create the merged clips while the video is still the same frame rate than the audio (29.97). Then I apply the "cinema tools reverse telecine" on the merged clip.
    This merge doesn't present the problem I had before. It is a bit much more complicated than the other way, because the transcoded merge is not always sync to the frame.
    Does anyone had experienced the same problem than me with the 6.0.2 update?

  • Using BATCH-EXPORT on subclips vs MM to create independent media files

    I've been capturing full HDV tapes with the DV Start/Stop Detection turned on and everything has worked just fine - until now. I'm now encountering a problem w FCP "Searching for Media" on roughly 25% of my clips DURING capture, and in the process, losing about 5 seconds at the start of the clip. I've been having lots of problems w my G5 over the last couple months and it's been acting quite slow and I imagine this is related to that.
    So... after a full 2 days trying to get Media Manager to create independent media files from my subclips (after capturing a twenty minute chunk whole, then breaking it down), following the FCP manual volume II pg 42 to a tee... I concur w many others on this site that Media Manager *****! No matter what I did, it would not produce new files out of my subclips and instead kept giving me the same error: "Reconnect Media Failed. The clip such-and-such was unable to be reconnected to the trimmed file due to a mismatch of the media present in the file... yada yada." Yes, I shortened the end of the first subclip by a couple frames, and I also had another subclip to delete, and I tried going straight from the bin, then from the timeline, then after making all clips independent in the timeline... nothing!
    Then I discovered BATCH EXPORT.
    Using it, I exported my HDV subclips using Quicktime Movie, Self-Contained, HDV 30, audio and video. It processed 20 minutes of subclips in just a few minutes so I'm fairly confident that no real 'processing' occurred.
    Can someone verify for me though that this is a safe procedure and that I am not re-processing HDV files with more HDV nonsense? Before continuing, I would just like to know for sure that Batch Export produces exactly the same result with subclips then if I were to simply capture one clip at a time.
    Thanks a bunch,
    Chris

    I can confirm that it does not merge audio tracks. Track 1 and 2 remain the same. In fact everything appears as it would if I were to capture direct, I just want someone who knows better to validate this!
    Also, has anyone else experienced the slowdown during log & capture that I described, with the intermittent message "searching for media"?

  • Is there a limit to the number of subclips displayed in FCP7?

    I am editing a piece that has two large clips that I have divided into subclips based on the start and stop date and time. I can only display a little over 40 of these subclips in the project window. How can I see the rest of them?

    Also, if you grab the lower right corner of the browser (project) pane and drag down as far as you can, you should create enough real estate to let you see all your sub clips.
    I'm unaware of a max permissible number of sub clips in FCP. I've certainly had way more than 40 in some projects.

  • Help ! TC changes on subclip export

    Hello:
    I import all of my DV footage into FCP 5.1.2 by using the 'Capture Now' option (DV NTSC Easy Setup) to capture the entire tape and then use the 'Detect DV Start/Stop' function to mark the master clip, then make subclips from that.
    The problem starts when I select all subclips and do 'Batch Export'.
    It exports all of the subclips just fine, however it CHANGES the Time Code of exported material by several frames starting from the second subclip in the batch. It does exactly the same TC shift if I do export individual subclip.
    It does not alter the content of the video. Both subclips and exported files are the same in terms of real video playback. It just changes the "Media Start" on exported files which makes it impossible to recapture the video in future as a timecode is wrong.
    What am I doing wrong ? How can I fix it ? Please advise.
      Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    Sure... 10.4.8 and 7.1.3
    I start thinking that I found a serious BUG in FCP.
    Did more testing and found what is going on -- still do not know why. Aparently FCP uses Non Drop Frame method for setting the Media Start when you exporting subclips.
    Simple Test:
    1. Create a brand new project
    2. Import clip (IMPORTANT: NTSC 29.97 Video Frame Rate)
    3. Make sure that the Reel is not empty (Item Properties - Capture). If it is put something there
    4. Open your clip in the Viewer.
    5. Set In and Out points (IMPORTANT: In Point should be at least at 00:02:00;02 TC)
    6. Make a subclip (Cmd-U)
    7. Export it
    8. Import it back and compare Media Start for Exported file and Sublip
    For me they are different:
    Subclip: 00:02:00;02
    Exported clip: 00:01:00;58
    4 frames difference which makes me think that FCP used Non Drop Frame method to set a Media Start for exported file.
    If you set your In point before the 00:02:00;02 it works correct -- Media Start for Subclip and Exported file are the same.

  • Cannot hear audio for subclips playback in source monitor

    Hi,
    My editor has merged a bunch of video and multichannel audio on his computer and created merged clips and sub clips for me to look at. Now it's my turn to make selects from the merged subclips, but when I open the project on my computer the subclips don't play back with sound (however, the regular full merged clips play just fine). There clearly is audio attached to the subclips (i can see the waveforms) and the correct audio channels are turned on, but the no sound is played. However, when I drag these subclips into the timeline, the audio channels are all turned off -- I can turn the relevant channels on and then the audio plays in program monitor from the timeline!
    Since my editor didn't have this problem on his computer, I assume it has something to do with the settings on my premiere pro.
    Does anyone have any ideas?
    thanks

    I'm not sure if it would account for the exact problem you're encountering, but there is a known issue with subclips saved from merged clips. It involves the Media Start and End timecodes being improperly calculated. Even if this bug does not account for the particular issue you're reporting, I recommend not using subclips from merged clips for the time being. Two workarounds:
    Rather than saving subclips from your merged clips, insert each segment into a sequence for review.
    If you really want separated clips in the Project panel, make duplicates of the original merged clip and then set in/out points in each
    If the bug records are correct, this issue was introduced in CC7.2, so another option is to roll back to 7.1. In that light, I'm curious whether you and your editor are on the same version.

  • Media Manager and Subclips

    Hello,
    Seem to be having a slight issue with media manager. I broke a master clip up into 5 subclips. I tried to use media manager to create 5 new media files from these subclips (which should result in the subclips becoming their own master clips), thus allowing me to delete the original master clip. FCP did create the 5 new media files based on the subclips, but the subclips in the FCP browser are still using the original master file as their reference. I then have to manually reconnect the subclips to their new media files. I assumed media manager would do this step automatically. Am I wrong in assuming this?
    It seems to me that I've used Media Manager in this fashion before, but can't seem to figure out what I'm missing this time around.

    Well, the original subclips will not relink to the new media. NEW clips should have been created....and if you chose MAKE A NEW PROJECT they will be in that project. Just open that project and bring them over to this new one. If they weren't made into a new project, they should have appeared in this one. if not, just go to the FINDER and find the clips and import those into FCP.
