the changes.

content you would get if you were exporting those lists from the Export Film Lists or
Export XML Film Lists dialog.

Note: Keep in mind that the following settings should be the same for the two sequences
you are comparing: Film Standard, Telecine Speed, and “Start with 8 seconds of leader.”
Key numbers or Ink numbers (but not both) must also be moved to the Included Columns
area of the Data Columns section. The two sequences must also have the same editing
timebase (set in Final Cut Pro).

If you selected “Save a Cinema Tools program file,” enter a filename and location for it in

you can easily locate it later if you need to export another change list.

A change list file is generated, containing all the lists you selected in the Export Change
List dialog.
