The file is uploaded and a new asset is created. The upload progress is displayed above
the Information pane in the bottom-left corner of the Final Cut Server main window.
5 If you want to monitor the progress of the file upload, click the Downloads and Uploads
button to display the Downloads & Uploads window.
After the file is uploaded, select the Assets pane and click the Search button to view the
new asset or assets created from the Final Cut Pro project file and any new media files.
Exporting Media Assets
Exporting is useful for creating copies of media files for editing or for making a backup
copy. You can export copies of media assets even if the asset is locked or checked out
by another user.
Important: After you export a media asset, the exported file is no longer managed by
Final Cut Server. If you want to create a managed copy of an asset that can be checked
in and tracked by Final Cut Server, check out the asset.
To export one or more media assets
1 Select one or more assets, Control-click an asset, then choose Export from the shortcut
menu.
The Export or Multiple Export window appears.
2 In the window, choose a destination to save the media files to by clicking the Choose
button and identifying a location in the file browser.
3 If desired, choose a transcode setting.
4 If you are exporting a single file, you can also optionally change the filename.
5 Click the Start button.
The media file is exported to the location you specified in the Export window.
