@Taverino - thank you for your suggestion. But, I have a project that has 32 hours of footage (I measured it with Final Cut by selecting the parent folder). There are nearly 2000 clips spread through dozens of bins. It is quite time consuming to click each folder open. Sure, it can be done, but it can also be a feature that makes things simple to select a folder to "get info" as in Final Cut. Feature request time I guess.
@Jeff - Thanks. Yes, I posted the same question in the Prelude forum. You consider it double posting and (I presume) locked the forum. I understand the need for keeping things streamlined but they are actually two different problems which may have two different answers. Premiere has an "info" panel which for me is the best solution to this question. Prelude does not. The suggestion for Prelude was to put all of my clips onto a timeline. That's a fine suggestion for a project with a small amount of footage. But, I assume that 32 hours of footage will not fit onto one timeline. Therefore, I still do not have a reasonable way to measure in Prelude (aside from sending to Premiere to measure, which is fine) so my question for Prelude is not answered.
