Importing a Batch List
You can import a batch list into Final Cut Pro and use it to capture clips to edit or to create
a sequence originally done on another editing system. The frame rate of the batch list is
determined by the currently selected sequence preset in the Audio/Video Settings window.
Note: A batch list must be a text file. In some cases, you may need to add the .txt file
extension to your filename to ensure that Final Cut Pro can import your file.
To import a batch list
1
In the Browser, open an existing bin, or create a new bin to store the offline clips and
