Moving Firestore files into FCP at DVinfo.net

Harry Bromley-Davenport · November 18th, 2010, 12:51 PM

When I grab a whole bunch of Firestore video files and dump them in a Final Cut Timeline they do not appear in the order they were shot "by time of day". They go in at random - presumably because of the random numbering process the Firestore uses to label each shot.

So I grab each one individually and drag it over into the timeline.

This is a real pain and I've been doing it for years. Is there another solution that some ingenious soul out there has found?

Many thanks,

Harry.
