    Thanks a lot! I tried the template thing and could also from there asign an own caption role (srt swedish in my case) Now I just have to figure out if I could get rid of the iTT-english default caption and have my own srt as soon as I start making captions.

    Great video Brad. I have a question. My video roles that I am having in connected clip (2nd videotrack) when they have different color FC doesn't allow me to apply transition between them. Is there any "trick" to be apple to apply transitions etc for that?

    • @Brad_West
      @Brad_West  Месяц назад

      If it is one the second track and you want to transition between that and the clip below, you will probably need to lift the bottom clip from the primary storyline and trim it so that you can add the transition between the,. You could create a secondary storyline by selecting both clips and hitting Cmd G. Then you can add the transition between the clips.

    Brad, do you think we can set up a shortcut for speed? Imagine how easy would be to have a keyboard shortcut for 40% of the speed (60fps on a 24fps timeline).

    • @Brad_West
      @Brad_West  Месяц назад

      For that specific example you could use the “Automatic Speed” feature to change 60fps to 24fps (40% speed). Automatic speed can be assigned to a custom shortcut in the Final Cut Pro menu without needing to set up a shortcut in System Preferences. 😄👍🏼

      ​@@Brad_West My bad. I have this one and I use all the time lol. I was thinking more about when I'm adjusting the speed ramping when I can't do auto speed for everything so I have to go to custom, write 40% or 80% and hit enter.

    Great tips Brad! Thanks! Strangely the custom shortcut for Show Horizon works great with FCP in English but not with FCP in French.… I tried several times, but nothing worked. Does anyone have any idea why?🤔

    • @Brad_West
      @Brad_West  Месяц назад

      I didn't even consider what it might be like for other languages. Have you tried entering the French version in the Keyboard settings when you create the shortcut?

      You have to save that library with the roles somewhere (like the movies folder) and then you can use that as a template for future projects. I mention how in the video.
