88 Chapter 6 Working With Panasonic P2 Media
Deleting P2 Clips
If a P2 volume has read-and-write access (as opposed to read-only access), you can
delete clips and their associated media by:
 Selecting a clip and pressing Delete
 Control-clicking a clip and choosing Delete from the shortcut menu
Most P2 folders and disk images have read-and-write access. However, if you mount
P2 cards via an older Panasonic P2 card reader, the Panasonic AG-HVX200 camcorder,
or the Panasonic P2 store (AJ-PCS060G) portable hard disk unit, the volumes have
read-only access.
Important: If you delete a media file from a P2 card, folder, or disk image, the footage is
irretrievable. Since most workflows reuse P2 cards during production, you should develop
a plan for backing up original media on P2 cards in case you need to reingest it later.
Using the Preview Area
The Preview area allows you to view your clips and set In and Out points to determine
how much of each clip’s media is ingested.
