Re: Using Automator (Leopard) with FCP for repetitive tasks

essentially, it's not complicated but you just need to be clear the exact steps required.

The hard part is that even your pauses are recorded, so you can't take too long to think about the next step, or you'll have to manually edit the pause duration after the record.

Also, you sometimes need to pause longer so the software can catch to the steps executed, eg. opening a complex sequence, moving from a single video layer section to one that has many layers, etc
