You can also use the fit to fill edit with multiple clips. When you do so, each successive
clip selected in the Browser replaces each successive clip in your sequence using a fit to
fill edit, starting with the clip at the current position of the Timeline playhead. If you’ve
selected more clips in the Browser than you have in your sequence, you’ll see an
“Insufficient content for edit” error message.
Note: When you use the fit to fill edit, the speed setting applied to the edited clip
changes so that the clip fits the newly specified duration. These speed settings can be
modified or removed at any time.
To perform a fit to fill edit:
1 Do one of the following:
 In the Canvas or Timeline, set sequence In and Out points to define the part of your
sequence you want to fill.
 Position the playhead over a clip you want to replace using a fit to fill edit. If no In
and Out points are set in the sequence, Final Cut Pro uses the clip boundaries as
sequence In and Out points.
2 Make sure that the correct destination tracks are set in the Timeline.
3 Open a clip in the Viewer.
4 Set In and Out points to define the portion of your source clip that you want to edit
into your sequence to fill the duration set in step 1.
Set In and Out points
in the source clip. Set In and Out points
in the sequence.
