Video Capture clip sharing

DataMeister wrote on 8/19/2004, 7:55 PM
In Video Capture 5.0, I forgot to open my saved project before capturing a couple more tapes from the project I'm working on.

I can't seem to get those clips into the main project file where all the other clips are saved. Am I being stupid here or are the programers the sutupid ones in this case?

Currently the only way I see of adding the most recent clips to the clip database is to recapture the whole thing again.

Click on the Explorer tab. Select the files you want, right-mouse-button click on them, and select "Add to media pool". Or just use them from the Explorer tab; they'll be added to the media pool automatically as soon as you place them on the timeline.

Umm. There is no timeline in Video Capture. I think you've confused your answer with Vegas features. Anyone know what I'm asking?

Are you asking for newly captured clips to automatically appear in the media pool of a new project?

Are you asking about the new clips not showing up in the Vegas Explorer tab? Click on the refresh button.

JBJones wants to add his clips into the Vegas Capture utility... not the Vegas timeline.

I think know what he wants... as I had a similar thing happen to me. I usually setup a "project specific" vidcap project and then capture all my tapes for that project. But when I am working on multiple projects I oftwen switch from one project to the next for capture. Once I forgot to switch so some of my tapes were captured into the wrong vidcap project. It would have been cool to be able to move the clip information from that file into the correct one.

I seem to recall some utility that was posted which may do this... I'll see if I can dig around for it)... found it (I think).

Veggie Toolkit

That might be possible to export the clip information from one vidcap project and import it into another. Not sure...
