I would love to talk with an software engineer over there to see if they are even aware of this being a major kink in professional people's workflow. It wouldn't be a rewrite like you said just an additional unique timecode track that is attached somehow to a subclip, basically aby filmasart - FCP Feature Requests IMPROVE AUXILIARY TIMECODE - 16 years agoI do a lot of music video editing. One of my major complaints about FCP is the way it handles Auxiliary timecode. The major problem, and I've complained about it for years, is that you can't assign unique auxiliary timecode to each subclip without rippling the entire reel. This makes it completely a pain in the butt when dealing with music videos where several takes will be in a row on the samby filmasart - FCP Feature Requests Re: Online/Offline Workflow and Subclipping - 16 years agoOh yeah Shane brings up a good point. If you have any kind of speed changes that can get funky in the online. Simple speed increases usually come through, but reverses and ramps will give you trouble. I would suggest making a new sequence that just has the full clip, without speed changes and capture that media with a separate EDL. -Kby filmasart - Café LA Re: Online/Offline Workflow and Subclipping - 16 years agoListen, I work at an online facility and I have onlined at least 10 of my own projects from FCP, all from subclips and multiclips. But as a safety precaution I always edit with timecode burn-in. In the future I might suggest getting your offline dubs with burn-in.

I would try reading up on it first before posting, your questions are too broad and that's why no one is answering them.by filmasart - Café LA Re: Pixilated Subtitles - 16 years agoFirst of all render the quicktime with sequence compressor set to either none, uncompressed 8bit or 10bit. The pixelization could be from your sequence codec settings. If the titles are moving change in the sequence settings, video processing tab, motion filtering quality, to "best". This will help reduce any artifacts you may be gettting. But I would say that just because you canby filmasart - Café LA Re: FCP 6 still can't sort numerically? - 16 years agoIn a proffessional editorial environment you always label tapes as either 001, 002, 003 or 0001, 0002, 0003 and that is reinforced in the program I think. Sorry man just accept it for the better.by filmasart - Café LA |
