Preface
New Features in Final Cut Pro HD
9
New TC Rate Browser column and item property
The new TC Rate item property (visible in both the Browser columns and Item
Properties) shows the source timecode rate of clips and sequences. Only the source
timecode rate is displayed, not Aux 1 or Aux 2 timecode rates. Use the TC Rate Browser
column to adjust the timecode rate for many clips at once. Some timecode rates are
not allowed for some video frame rates.
Note: TC Rate refers to the rate of a media file or sequence timecode track. Vid Rate
refers to the frame rate of the video itself.
New timecode reader and generator filters
In Final Cut Pro HD, Timecode reading and generation are separated into two filters,
replacing the Timecode Print filter. Both are located in the Video category of the Video
Filters bin in the Effects tab.
For more information about the new timecode reader and generator filters, see

Using LiveType with Final Cut Pro
You can directly import LiveType project files into Final Cut Pro. This eliminates the
need to render a QuickTime movie of your LiveType title each time you want to use it in
Final Cut Pro.
For details about working with LiveType projects directly in Final Cut Pro, see “

New Creator Browser column and item property
The Creator item property (visible in both the Browser columns and Item Properties)
shows the name of the application that created the media file referenced by a clip.
