Best way to catalog clips?

[rungabic]

I believe the consolidate tool uses segment encoding where possible, in v4.61

Hmmm...I just searched the forum for "segment encoding" and saw a comment that it doesn't support 720p, for some reason I can't understand.

Unfortunately, I shoot the JVC HD200, so this wouldnt work then...

D'oh. :(

Yes, in that instance, all clips would be reencoded..

(I'm not sure, but I think this limitation is being addressed in the next major release)

That would be nice...whenever that is! I don't pretend to know the technicial details behind this, but I can't understand why 720p isn't supported for this feature...

It's to do with how the format is implemented...it's a bit of an oddity, and requires a different MPEG encoding engine/algorithm just to handle it (segment encoding). Just one of those things that 'takes a bit longer to develop.'
