Apple Final Cut Pro 7 - Manual (Page 289)

• Selected Items in Logging Bin: If you selected specific clips in your logging bin, you
can choose to capture only these. This is a good way to capture or recapture clips
from a specific reel or a limited number of clips that you isolate using the Find
command or by sorting a specific Browser column. This option is only available when
you initiate batch capturing from the Log and Capture window and you have selected
items within the current logging bin in the Browser.
• Offline Items in Logging Bin/Offline Items Only: Captures only the offline clips in the
current logging bin (or the current selection in the Browser). If there are no offline
clips available, this option doesn’t appear.
• Aborted Clips: If you stopped an earlier batch capture, you can choose to capture
just the clips that weren’t captured.
• Use Logged Clip Settings: Select this checkbox to capture all your clips using the settings
you specified for each individual clip during the logging process. If this checkbox is
unselected, all your clips will be captured using the current settings in the Clip Settings
tab of the Log and Capture window and the capture preset currently chosen in the
Capture Settings tab. This includes video and audio track selections, analog video level
settings (only available with some video interfaces), and capture preset settings such
as image dimensions, frame rate, and so on. For more information, see
“Changing
Capture Settings.”
• Add Handles: Select this checkbox to capture additional frames beyond the head (In
point) and tail (Out point) of each clip captured, then enter a duration in the handle
timecode field. Handles are useful if you’ve logged your clips starting at precisely the
first and last frames that you think you want to use, but you want to capture a little bit
more media just in case you need additional frames for performing dissolves and other
transitions.
• Capture Preset pop-up menu: If the Use Logged Clip Settings checkbox is unselected,
you must choose a capture preset from the Capture Preset pop-up menu. This capture
preset is used for all media files you batch capture. A summary of the settings you
specify appears below this pop-up menu.
• Total Media Time: Lists the total time of the selected media, based on the capture
settings you specify.
• Total Disk Space: Lists the disk space needed for the captured media, based on the
capture settings you specify, as well as the space available on your scratch disk.
Batch Capturing Selected Clips
When you batch capture, you need to select clips in the Browser to capture. If no clips,
sequences, or bins are selected, the clips in the currently assigned logging bin are batch
captured when you use the Batch Capture command.
