total data in bins

[Andrae Palmer]

Is there away to see the total amount of data or time... in all of the clips in a bin?

Clipfinder.

Or

if you mean something else, drag it all onto the timeline.

At the finder level you can figure that it is roughly 2GIG per minute of footage.

100GB = aprox 50 min,

I'm doing RED Rocket transcodes and bill the clients based on realtime of the clips. Unfortunately all the clips inside of the transcoded bins came from different source folders and some were previously transcoded by the client. Having the ability to see the total time or even total data inside of the bins for processing would make things a whole lot easier for me. Thanks for the clipfinder info... I will give it a try.

The source footage is in different folders and some clips are excluded. It would be great if one could drag all clips to the timeline and the program didn't take forever to give you the duration. Of course having away to see the duration or data n the bins would be the easiest route.

If you've exported all clips to the same location, you could add ale the files (specified finder search) in QuickTime Pro, and thus see the total length.

Our you can customize your search for only say the _p proxies, and proceed as above.

I would love to have this information before the export due to needing the data to calculate RED Rocket transcode times. I am not transcoding every single clip in each folder and some folders are excluded... so the normal finder routes would be tedious or impractical.

Clipfinder is the easiest option - open a new file set the watch folder to your source folder and viola - duration bottom left. Works for R3Ds or QTs in folders

It is the easiest option but still a big inconvenience due to not every clip in the folder being included and not every folder being included. I ended up using clipfinder yesterday but I had to individually add the selected clips from a written list of over 300 files. I would really like an easier way to do this.
