Thanks Helena,
I will submit it. Sadly, FCP does not support multiple video tracks
linked up one after the other either, so it seems there is no way to
stitch the files from the camera for direct editing in FCP. Currently
the directory has to be brought in, and then the individual clips can
be dropped on the time line in starting time code order. Obviously
this is not ideal for workflow or for editing.
Thanks for you response, James
