I overlayed two masks Video generator-Matte-Colour on top of the clip, that's the only way I could crop the lower and upper shape and the result is widescreen! cool guys!by alioshka - Café LA How to put a widescreen with expanded image? - 10 years agoHi, As some of my clips in the sequence had to be expanded or twisted I cannot use widescreen or create black stripes as a mask So how do yoou do it in those cases? I don't want to alter the sequence screen shape Would be great if you know it as I've been googling with no results. Thanks!

But... how can I know the type of compression as in the information only says "unix executable file"?by alioshka - Compressor - Media Compression and Conversion How to convert .mts MPEG-1 to Quicktime or other compatible with FCP - 10 years agoHi, I have recieved these files .mts, I believe mpeg-1 format, that do not open in the MACOS. I have to edit them in FCP but I don't see how to make them compatible. So far I've tried to convert with VLC and MPEG Streamclip with no results. Is there any free download converter application?

I have never done it before and I cannot find it in forums & google. Is that so easy that I'm missing something? Can you give me a clue on how to do that? final cut pro 6.06 MACOS X LEOPARD 10.5.6 Proc. 2.8 GHZ INTEL CORE 2 DUO 2GB 800M DDR 2 SDRAMby alioshka - Café LA Re: EXPORTING HDV 1080 25p is giving jumpy image - 12 years agothanks a lot strypes! no I don't need to play it from it, is just to deliver. so, as they not used to play HD and probably don't have premier or avid, need they just copy it in their PC desktop or need a fast speed hard drive for playback and storage?by alioshka - Compressor - Media Compression and Conversion EXPORTING HDV 1080 25p is giving jumpy image - 12 years agoHi people from LAFCPUG, I have a question, a problem with my exportation that doesn't let me sleep. I'm editing HDV 1080 25p footage recorded with the Canon XHA1 in FCP 6.06. MACOS X 10.5.6 LEOPARD Proc.2.8 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo, 2GB DDR 2 SDRAM 800M. My finished timeline is 7 minutes. Some effects, some LiveType titles (a little sawtooth like in the edges), and all looks good so far. The sby alioshka - Compressor - Media Compression and Conversion titles in livetype looking pixelated in FCP - 12 years agoWell I must be doing something wrong, as the titles created in LiveType and imported from (rendered or not) FCP don't look good, very pixelated, terribe in comparison with those included in FC. When I create a QT movie looks good, then it must be an incompatibility with FCP? I checked the settings and there is no option like HDV 1080p25, which is mine- so have tried it on 50i and others, buby alioshka - Café LA TITULOS EN LIVETYPE SE VEN PIXELADOS EN FCP - 12 years agoAlguien puede echarme un cable...? Pues algo debo de estar haciendo mal pues los titulos creados en LIVETYPE e importados -renderizando o no- desde FCP no se ven bien, muy pixelados, un horror en comparacion con los incluidos en FC. En cambio cuando creo un QT movie se ve bien entonces debe ser una incompatibilidad con FCP? Me he fijado en los settings y aunque no hay la opcion HDV 1080pby alioshka - Foro FinalCutPro Re: Best resolution exporting HDV from FCP to IDVD - 12 years agoHi Jude, My HDV project now was copied to a new seq setting Prores, render prores and export current selfcontained, giving 4,39 Gb It looked great but little unstable image at some shots and I observed that the dimensions changed to 1920x1080? Is it normal? As you suggested I suppose that is the best quality I can ask for to make a DVD in IDVD. Thanks a lot!by alioshka - Café LA Re: Best resolution exporting HDV from FCP to IDVD - 12 years agoHi Jude, thanks for the answer. No, is just 6 minutes. Exporting prores timeline to QT movie current setting makes a very small file 6minutes 67 Mb. Isn't that too small for a good resolution result?by alioshka - Café LA |
