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

ok, found some media on a rugged drive.

nice long 90 min clip.
ProRes PAL (720x576 25fps)

made a 5 second SUB-clip,

and it Media Manages (COPY, delete unused) just fine in FCP 6.06

are you sure you un-tick every thing in the Media Manager that says
"Include"?

does it indicate it will trim the clip (in the two green bars at the
top) and then NOT trim it?
