When the camera picks up the video after shooting the clip, a clip and a folder will appear.

According to the query of Blog Garden, the camera has a clip and a folder when shooting video, which may be caused by the following reasons:

The camera you use is a file-based camera, that is, it stores each clip as a separate file instead of a continuous stream like a tape or DVD. The advantage of this is that you can easily select and manage the clips you want without fast-forwarding or rewinding.

The camera you use encapsulates video and audio data in ts format. TS format is a transport stream format, which can be decoded independently at the beginning of any segment and is suitable for real-time transmission of programs. TS format files usually have extensions. Ts, each file has a corresponding index file (. Idx) and information file (. inf)。

The camera you use will automatically save each clip to a separate folder when shooting, which is convenient for management and classification. In addition to video files in TS format, each folder may also contain other types of files, such as thumbnails, metadata, copies and so on.

To solve this problem, you can take the following steps:

If you want to combine multiple TS format video files into a complete video and convert it into editable MP4 format, you can use some video editing software or conversion tools. For example, software such as XMediaRecord2 or FFmpeg can be used for merge conversion.

If you want to edit a TS format video file in Final Cut Pro, you need to import it into the Final Cut Pro resource library first, and ensure that the source material will not be moved or deleted. If you disconnect the camera or other equipment during the import process, or move the location of the source material after the import, you may encounter the problem that the material is offline or cannot be enjoyed. At this point, you need to re-link the media or re-import the media from the camera/archive.
