Re: [FCP-L] Cannot "Media Manage" a subclip?

there are few tricks to Media Manage contiguous sub clips.

1. make them dis-contiguous.
in my (PAL) experience, this means removing TWO frames from between
the clips.
you will get one back on the M'd file, but the gap in FCP has to be
two frames.

2. Checkerboard the clips in a timeline, and do two passes of Media
Management

3. Don't Media Manage at all, use the BATCH EXPORT.
you will lose logging notes and markers, if any.
