Reverse order of clips when importing from card or camera in Final Cut Pro X? When I'm doing to-camera commentary in my studio, a regular part of my workflow is to record some footage on my DSLR and then import it immediately into Final Cut Pro X. I'll often need another take (or ten) before I've finished so it's really annoying that when FCPX fetches the files it does it in the order they were shot, so the file I want is always the last to appear. 



Is there any way to make Final Cut Pro X fetch the most recently recorded file first instead?
I don't think it's possible. In my experience the contents isn't loaded in any particular order, so setting the order to ascending content created date doesn't actually change the order the files are loaded. You can still try setting the date order to ascending if you wish: click the  button on the status bar then click the ‘content created’ header to sort ascending.
