In Final Cut Pro, choose File > Import > Batch List.

 

In the Final Cut Pro Batch List dialog, select the batch capture list you exported from 
Cinema Tools, then click Open.

The clips appear in the Browser as offline clips, ready to be batch captured. 

Cinema Tools is tightly integrated with Final Cut Pro HD. When you finish a film editing 
project in Final Cut Pro HD, you will want to export lists (called 

 

) to be used as a 

guide for cutting the negative or workprint. Using the Cinema Tools database you 
created for the project, Cinema Tools can translate the edits made in Final Cut Pro HD 
into a film list.

 

In the Browser, select the sequence from which you want to create a film list.

 

Choose File > Export > Cinema Tools Film Lists.

 

Enter and select settings in the Film Lists dialog, then click OK.

 

In the dialog that appears, enter a filename for the film list, choose a location, then 
click Save.

 

In the next dialog that appears, select the Cinema Tools database you created for the 
media files used in the sequence, then click Choose.

You can also export audio edit decision lists (EDLs) and change lists using the same 
basic method.

It’s possible to capture your source clips before creating your database, and to build the 
Cinema Tools database by importing a batch capture list created in Final Cut Pro HD. 
This approach is not as easy as building a database from a telecine log or Avid Log 
Exchange (ALE) file, because you then need to manually add the key number and film 
roll information to each database record.
