I thought I was the only one struggling with editing on my ipad due to storage I was about to go out and spend thousands on a whole computer. You saved my pockets thank you bunches!
Bro can you solve my problem I have iPad Air 4 64 gb I want to screen record my pubg game play but i am facing storage issue so how can I solve this problem please help
Thanks for a great video Andrew. I’m now using LumaFusion editing from the external 5Tb drive successfully. I also store finished Movies on the external drive too.. The problem I have is not being able to upload to RUclips directly from the external drive. It doesn’t seem possible to browse and select the finished video from either the browser or app version of RUclips on my iPad Air, works from a PC…. Have you had the same challenges? If so, it would be great to have another video to show the solution.. Best wishes, Paul
I have question that can I import my video from camera directly ? Type C to C directly, my camera is fuji xt4 and lumix s5,which shoot h.265 10 bit video, does it work? For ipad m1 version. Hope your reply 🙂
Yeah,if you want to save some buy an ipad air with student discount and buy an external mouse and keyboard which will be much cheaper than the apple's magic keyboard. P.S-Same thing goes for ipad pro
Buy an M1 Mac! Beef up RAM and storage a step up. Though Lumafusion is good, the free version of DaVinci Resolve is better. I’m not sure how well lower end iPads work with external drives.
Probably a M1 Macbook Air and Final Cut is cheaper than iPad Pro and keyboard. You have more flexibility. LumaFusion is great, but iPads have several file system limitations. But I am considering an iPad mini for portable editing. Just think the Macbook Air is better for the price than an iPad pro
You plug it into a drive. I had a vanilla WD portable backup drive 4TB with a usb-c cable, and it worked. But using another drive same model with the USB-A cable and an apple adapter, it didn’t work. Unfortunately this channel does not seem to want to share what drives it uses.
My iPad doesn’t use Lumafusion well. It seems the iPad is struggling which is confusing is it is a brand new iPad Air. Why does Lumafusion struggle to show the video previews?
Wich hdd file format do you use in order to edit files inside of it?, since my (New)Hdd is formatted on (Exfat) and my ipad pro 2018 does not recognize it, but I have a micro sdcard and it does recognize it and allow to store files to it (using the same file format). (Also this hdd is recognized across all my other devices, if I do format the disk to NTFS, the ipad only recognize it as read-only). Thanks!
Hi. Thanks for the great video, it’s very helpful. Just wondering do you need a thunderbolt harddrive to edit video smoothly? Or a USB-C harddrive is fast enough?
Hello) Thank you! Can i put my hard drive, than edit files in LumaFusion/ Inshot / Video leap / Adobe Lightroom so on.. WITHOUT copy theese files on ipad ?
I had the same issues trying to use the older iPad Air 3. You can get a dongle from Apple that you can power the drive with, but you’re still going to be transferring and USB-2 speeds. If do you want to pursue it check RUclips for some tutorials - I can’t remember the name of the dongle.
I have 6 dongles that my iPad Air 2 can read, LumaFusion doesn’t allow access, I want to import videos, render and save back to dongle, don’t need real-time, I don’t use 4K, I have decades of film and videos I want to import and edit, I also don’t need M1 for now, might have find another solution
My iPad Air 2 supports external storage, it’s LumaFusion decision not to allow us to import or export, I don’t need real-time, it will likely force me to find another editor
@@anrvtoo267 this has been the situation for years. It’s not surprising. A Mac is so much easier and more capable, but you can get an iPad Pro with a USB-C connection and it will work.
*casually skips over the part where he needs to keep the ipad screen on and the files app open while copying 4gb files between the drives to get it to work
It IS still just an iPad. If you need a dedicated video editing computer, sure, get a laptop, but if you want one device to carry with you and use for some work in a pinch, then I can't see what there is to hate about the iPad Pro.
@@victorc777 there's nothing the iPad does that a PC can't do better, and if you don't need the capabilities of a PC, an Amazon tablet is much cheaper. What's the point again?
@@whiteandnerdytuba That is not true at all. An iPad is simply easier to take with you, much lighter, and does everything you might need a computer for, but with less heft. Obviously though, any recent computer will get more powerful the bigger, heavier, and more power hungry it becomes.
It’s the wrong goal. macOS was never designed for touch use while iPadOS was. Instead of putting in the significant work of trying to move macOS to iPad, iPadOS should be significantly beefed up. Allow iPad to run more Mac apps, work on windowing, add true external display support. No reason iPadOS can’t be improved and it is more future-forward, even if not powerful enough yet
@@AppleInsider The iPad Pro has the same M1 chip as the Mac and Apple is preaching it as a laptop replacement. There is no reason an M1 device (more powerful than most Windows laptops) should be held back by software. Putting macOS on the iPad would be by no means a difficult task. macOS can support a 4:3 aspect ratio. It can even support touchscreen monitors. It would be significantly easier than rebuilding iPadOS from the ground up.
@@AppleInsider WHY are people so afraid of macOS on a powerful iPad?! You most likely could dual boot, and you would never have to go into macOS if you didn’t want to! And if there was only macOS you didn’t have you wouldn’t have to buy it - you could get the iOS version.

Great video. I love how you didn’t use the built-in iPad screen recorder so we could see the overall context of the tutorial.
Great video. Maybe use the built-in iPad screen recorder next time so we can see the closeup details of the workflow.
I had the same thought
Bro can you solve my problem I have iPad Air 4 64 gb I want to screen record my pubg game play but i am facing storage issue so how can I solve this problem please help
LR CC needs to take this feature ASAP. It's annoying to import all the time to the device. It should be our choice.
Question: are the files not gonna get corrupted for just simply pulling the hard drive without safely removing it? Thank you
If you have 0 storage space left on your ipad you cannot write videos. You still need the space to write and export large video files.
Thanks for a great video Andrew. I’m now using LumaFusion editing from the external 5Tb drive successfully. I also store finished Movies on the external drive too..

Has this been solved through an app update or safari update?
Same issue here. Have to copy the final video to the iPad and upload from there. A workaround would be appreciated.
Hi, so when you want to disconnect the external hdd you dont have to close apps? or is there any options to safely remove the external hdd?
Thanks for showing this way of working, but are there other video editing softwares (apps) available that could do this trick.
Hi! is it possible to edit on the 2021 iPad mini directly from the external hard drive just like on the iPad Pro?
yes
Does this only work on the iPad Pro? Do you know if the same applies to the Air and the new mini? Thanks!
Love the T shirt!
So, is the hard drive being charged through the USB hub? I am desperate to find an answer to this.
Thank you for sharing! Does LumaFusion allow you to save the edit project itself to an external?
Isn’t this feature exclusive to Luma? Would it also work in applications like Lightroom, CapCut, and similar ones?
great video, but which HUB are you using for this? Can you post a link?
Also possible with Imovie? Or just Luma?
only luma
That was pretty cool! Thanks for the video tutorial.
Can you do this with an IPad that has the lightning connector? By just using a lightning to usb c adapter in the beginning of the chain? Thanks!
I have question that can I import my video from camera directly ? Type C to C directly, my camera is fuji xt4 and lumix s5,which shoot h.265 10 bit video, does it work? For ipad m1 version. Hope your reply 🙂
Can you recommend a dongle for my iPad Pro to connect power cord also connect Lacie hard drive both have the same Ç connection
I have ipad 9th gen . Can i do external editing by using external lighting to sd card reader cable using lumafusion ?
Hey what drive or drives are you using? It seems people have a lot of trouble with some drives but I don’t know which ones work or don’t work.
Does it continue the export in the background if I were to switch to a streaming app or social media while I'm waiting for the export to finish?
in my experience if I close the files app or the ipad screen turns off the files stop copying and become corrupted
So is it better to get a MacBook Air m1 to edit instead since the iPad pro with keyboard pretty much cost about the same or even more
Yeah,if you want to save some buy an ipad air with student discount and buy an external mouse and keyboard which will be much cheaper than the apple's magic keyboard.
P.S-Same thing goes for ipad pro
Buy an M1 Mac! Beef up RAM and storage a step up. Though Lumafusion is good, the free version of DaVinci Resolve is better. I’m not sure how well lower end iPads work with external drives.
@@joefilter2923 only usb c ipads have full capability for all Lumafusion features...iPad air 4 anfld ipad pro2018 onwards
Can NOT watch Dolby Vision "Movies Anywhere" OFFLINE on a Macbook. Like you can on the Mini LED M1 ipad pro 12.9
Probably a M1 Macbook Air and Final Cut is cheaper than iPad Pro and keyboard. You have more flexibility. LumaFusion is great, but iPads have several file system limitations. But I am considering an iPad mini for portable editing. Just think the Macbook Air is better for the price than an iPad pro
Thank you so much. Very very helpful. My exact problem. Will it still work if I use
Videoleap?
Can you charge it while the hardrive is plugged in?
Is 128 GB storage on iPad Pro M1 enough for LumaFusion with external drive editing?
I also want to know
Can you do that with LR?
Hey! Does this work with adobe rush?
Can you store Digital download movies on SSD for watching "Movies anywhere" Offline on Ipad M1 Pro 12.9 ?
Thanks for this ! Defensively a huge help🎉
I am new to the iPad Pro. Can this be done on iMovie?
Can you also do this with Adobe Premier Rush? I found that getting files onto my iPad pro such a chore that I gave up and went to the Windows pc.
Will this work with an iPad Air 5th generation
whats the storage and ram
of your ipad? andwhat model?
Will this work with iPad 10? It also has a USB C
can you do the same usinh davinci resolve for ipad?
Please Help!!!..I’m shooting all my videos with my iPhone 12 Pro Max. How do you transfer iPhone videos to external SSD without a computer?

Unfortunately this channel does not seem to want to share what drives it uses.
Does this work on the IPad air m1 as well?
Is it possible to add an NAS storage to iMovie?
So it doesnt work with imovie? Need to have lumifusion?
My iPad doesn’t use Lumafusion well. It seems the iPad is struggling which is confusing is it is a brand new iPad Air. Why does Lumafusion struggle to show the video previews?
CapCut video work using external SSD ?
I presume DaVinci resolve will be able to work in the same way?
Are you able to produce 8 hour or 12 hour long videos?
Wich hdd file format do you use in order to edit files inside of it?, since my (New)Hdd is formatted on (Exfat) and my ipad pro 2018 does not recognize it, but I have a micro sdcard and it does recognize it and allow to store files to it (using the same file format).

What’s the internal storage on the iPad you’re using?
Hi. Thanks for the great video, it’s very helpful.
Just wondering do you need a thunderbolt harddrive to edit video smoothly?
Or a USB-C harddrive is fast enough?
This is the kinda thing i needed to know! Thanks so very much man. If you have SD cards you recommend that are fast and portable
I would love to know
is this work with capcut?
what is the minimum memory processing size you recommend when purchasing an ipad for video editing. thanks for this video on external storage.
May I ask, can ipad air 4 do this too?
I have a plan to buy ipad air 4 64gb version
Thank you
Great questions!...
Great video! Thanks.
Very useful
Thanks so much
Awesome video! Thanks for taking the time to help others. :-)
The video I have been looking for!! Thanks 🙏🏾
Awesome

Can’t access external drive with lightning connector, disabled in LumaFusion, very frustrating, can’t import or export completed projects

Does this require 2021 model iPad pro
Are you sponsored by Starbucks?!
The more I use iPadOS the more I see artificial limiters. Just get a Mac.
I’m beginning to gather that as well. I find it painful in so many ways vs Mac or PC.

Yes. We get it. Projects use storage. The video title sets up the subject.
There should just be macOS on the iPad Pro.
Nooooo!

Too much nonsense talking...just demo and explain the one feature!
That's why I use Android tablet with Capcut for all editing.
The audio quality is poor and lower compared to other channels.
Thank you!!!
