Re: my smart collections are not working!!

Can two separate events share a keyword collection?

I have started a new event for material generated in 2012 for a project.
I now find that I have new keyword collections for this event.

Can I produce a smart collection across the 2011 and 2012 events?

Also at Christmas I created an event on my internal drive and linked ( not copied) files to it from my external camera archive drive.

When I returned home I wanted to move this event to my external fast RAID for editing.
I wanted to keep the files linked at this stage for the first cut.
My preferences were set to link NOT move media, nor transcode.

However when moving the event from within FCX all of the media was copied (and duplicated) to my RAID, the files were no longer linked!

The same happens if linked media goes offline, dragging the files back into FCX from the archive does not re-link the files but imports all of the media into the event folder.

Is media amazement really such a mess in FCX




Any one know how to
