Creating a Media Import SmartBin on NewsEdit

Media Import SmartBins allow you to automatically import QuickTime DV25
and DV50 .mov files into NewsEdit. This allows you to use Apple’s Final Cut
Pro video editing application, within a NAS environment, to create news
footage and then automatically import it into the news system.

Once set up, whenever you export a file into the source folder, it is
automatically imported into the NewsEdit Bin. You can then use it in a
sequence.

To create a SmartBin:

1. Open the NewsEdit application.

2. Click the

New Bin

button on the Bin toolbar.

3. Select

Media Import SmartBin

from the drop-down list.

This allows you to import QuickTime DV25 .mov and DV50 .mov files.

4. Click

Browse

to the right of the Server Path field.
