Answers.Text: In Final Cut a timecode break is when the tape is stopped. So then a break in the timecode is detected (indicating there was a stopping of the recording), final cut will create a new clip in the browser. And this will all be done when capturing from a camera/tapedeck via firewire. I am pretty sure that this is what your looking for

Answers.Text: There will be no timecode breaks between scenes if you are in rec-run mode (which you should be if you plan to batch capture) thus there will be no splitting. You should use the DV Start/Stop Detect feature in the Mark menu.

  One of my 'favourite' features in Adobe Premiere Pro CS family is [automatic scene detection](http://help.adobe.com/en_US/PremierePro/4.0/WS1c9bc5c2e465a58a91cf0b1038518aef7-7f9fa.html) - its ability to spit out individual clips when capturing from tape using pause/stop information. As far as I know, Final Cut Pro has no automnatic way of doing this. Splitting clips during import manually is so tedious. Is there something I'm missing out, or a plugin perhaps that provides this feature in FCP 7?

  Select the clip you wish to work on in the browser, then in the top menu bar for FCP, select Mark > DV Start/Stop Detect. This will break the clip up by the start/stop metadata generated when you were shooting.
  
  The options in the user preferences are for timecode breaks that occur during capture.
  
  ps: I don't know when this DV Start/Stop Detect feature was first included, but it was in FCP3 in 2002...
