About the Timecode-Based Method There are some situations in which the timecode-based method is useful or even essential: • If you have not logged clips in the Cinema Tools database by connecting them to database records: Only the timecode-based method can locate the database records. If the database contains the data that is needed to match the edge code and the timecode, and if the source clips were captured by Final Cut Pro using frame-accurate device control, Final Cut Pro should know the video reel and timecode information for each clip, and a film list can be produced from this information. (In such a case, you do not have to connect the source clips to the database records, saving you a fair amount of labor.) • If you are generating a film list from an external EDL: The timecode-based method is used (assuming you have not connected the source clips to the database). • If the clip files are inaccessible (offline) when the film list is generated: Only the timecode-based method can locate the database records.
