hello, i need help. I saved a movie i made yesterday, and now when i put it in in final cut again it wonth split( the clips ) so i can change them:( like each one. please help me

[LarryJordanFCP]

@MariaKristinaCid If you saved the movie by Sharing / Exporting it, that consolidates all the clips into a single movie file. This is appropriate for final distribution, but not for additional editing. To be able to edit individual clips, you need to open the project file, not the movie file.

Larry, good video. One question though. Once you have shared to apple tv, how then do you start playback on apple tv? Where does the file go? How do I point it in the direction of apple tv for playback?

@jmcphee7 Good question and I don't know, as I don't own an Apple TV.

Oh okay :) when you are in the final cut pro x program in the top there are these:

File - Edit - View - Mark - Clip - Modify - SHARE - window - help

when i push the share button the menu opens as you describe but i can't choose any of the options in the share menu if you understand.. i have this video i want to post on youtube, but i cant push any of the share options in the share menu?

hope you understand or else i try a new explanation?

Thank you for the fast answer!

@PheNexProduction Make sure you select the project in the Timeline before going to the Share menu. Larry

@PheNexProduction I know what you mean. I can't do anything!

[LarryJordanFCP]

@PheNexProduction Where are you seeing a share button? The share menu has many choices. I'm not sure what you mean by "I can't push something." Please provide a little more explanation and we'll do what we can to help. Also, posting in my forum may speed up response time. Thanks!
