Re: Graphics cards - 11 years ago
Hi Jude my mention of the 4400 was a typo. I got a 4800 which was a no-go. Ordered the 8800 GT which I have now put through it's paces and it does work as advertised using the CUDA engine with the terminal/text file hack. I have done some torture tests stacking up layers of video using opacity, fades and colour correction in Premiere Pro and it is impressive the way it handles much of what you woby Andrew Stone - Adobe Premiere Pro CC
Re: Graphics cards - 11 years ago
Jude, I just went through this process. I have a Mac Pro 1,1 so my choices are even more limited. There is a solution, actually solutions out there. You want to get yourself a used NVIDIA card that not only has the CUDA processing power but one that will speak to Premiere Pro. There are only a few officially supported cards but someone has come up with a solution that allows you to "adby Andrew Stone - Adobe Premiere Pro CC
Re: Batch Monitor - Closed App, Still Running Question - 11 years ago
Derek, I immediately reopened Batch Monitor and nothing comes up. This is what initially prompted the start of this thread... Ohhh the RAID is starting to thrash again! Most excellent.by Andrew Stone - Café LA
Re: Batch Monitor - Closed App, Still Running Question - 11 years ago
Processes are still going but my RAID isn't thrashing about as much I would like. Maybe it's assembling some pieces. Should know around midnight (West Coast time) if it works out. Thank you gentlemen. BTW I am running Compressor 3.0.5. Didn't make the jump to FCS 3 which was a rather prescient move I must say.by Andrew Stone - Café LA
Batch Monitor - Closed App, Still Running Question - 11 years ago
I'm in the midst of compressing a 7 hour video. The usual... Set it up in Compressor, Batch Monitor received the info and it's been crunching away for about 4 hours...except I closed Batch Monitor in the midst of it's compression routine. I opened up "top", the UNIX equivalent to Activity Monitor and can see "compressord is threaded out and still crunching away on all four cores onby Andrew Stone - Café LA
Re: HELP... I NEED FCP7 (FCStudio 3)... Apple Promised me, but aren't doing anything! - 11 years ago

Re: Mac OS X Lion, New MacBook Air & Mac Minis - 11 years ago
Cool, good to see the hegemony of Apple continuing. I feel particularly special today, almost as special as I did on June 21st. Thank you Ben for the news. At least Apple is treating us consistently and we can feel yet again, a bit more resolute in our decision to move on. -Andrewby Andrew Stone - Café LA

Re: If Apple's lost Larry....... - 11 years ago
Jude they should be worried, however, musicians have a lot of other options available to as DAWs and music creation programs when you place it in the context of the choice before video editors. Full blown DAWs there is of course ProTools which leans towards mixing but on the music creation side there is Digital Performer, Cubase and a few others along with a couple of unique DAWs like Abeltonby Andrew Stone - Café LA - X

Re: Python -- What are your thoughts? - 11 years ago
As mentioned above there "were traces of Python" found in an XML reference in the FCP X application. This was part of the news item that broke earlier in the week that gaves SOME people hope that FCP had a bunch of XML extensible stuff already built into the app but it wasn't brought into the UI as it wasn't ready for prime time. The Python thing is not a big deal in this case. Pythoby Andrew Stone - Café LA - X

Re: Real FCPX questions -No Rants Please - 11 years ago
Dean the ATI 5770 is a cheap upgrade for your machine. It isn't officially supported but many people have it in the same machine as yours (myself included) and it works without issue.by Andrew Stone - Café LA - X
Re: OH . . . MY . . . GOD - 11 years ago
Jon, I have been using Macs as production tools since 1989. I went through Apple's death spiral back in 1996/97. Up until that point I had never laid my hands on a Windows machine. It forced me to get spooled up with Windows production machines and then when Apple snatched up NeXT, I saw the benefit of Linux and UNIX as an operating environment so I became familiar with these "tools".

Re: Sadly - Premiere Pro 5.5 is looking better - 11 years ago
Well I saw the NAB presentation of FCPX was impressed with what I saw and did fully expect that Apple would carry over the vast majority of features from FCP 7 to FCPX. The few obvious things that were missing from the what we saw at the presentation like the viewer/canvas relationship, I was willing to wait and see what their new paradigm would be to solve the issue of referencing cut points betby Andrew Stone - Café LA - X
Re: MacPro 3.1 (early 2008), Radeon 5770 or 5870 and FCPX? - 11 years ago
Craig, I believe your thinking is correct. The display port to DVI connectors are standard fare at stores that sell Apple gear.by Andrew Stone - Café LA - X
Re: MacPro 3.1 (early 2008), Radeon 5770 or 5870 and FCPX? - 11 years ago
Craig, one thing you should know about the 5770 is, if you hook up 2 monitors to the display ports and the monitors are over 22" in size, you need to use at least one, dual-link adapter on one of the display ports. If you don't one of your monitors will not show up. There is a 3rd port on the card, which you probably know about, that is a DVI port. There are no caveats on monitor size with tby Andrew Stone - Café LA - X
Re: MacPro 3.1 (early 2008), Radeon 5770 or 5870 and FCPX? - 11 years ago

Re: Erratic gamma/color shifts on XDCAM EX - 11 years ago
Apparently, XDCAM is not supported yet in FCPX. Sony claims they will have make it compatible within a "reasonable length of time". I assumed though, as you probably did, that rewrapped XDCAM material should work.by Andrew Stone - Café LA - X
Re: MacPro 3.1 (early 2008), Radeon 5770 or 5870 and FCPX? - 11 years ago
The Radeon 5770 for a Mac Pro 1.1 (which I have) is a no brainer. Performance improvement is astounding. It will give your machine a new lease on life. And with more apps harnessing GPU cycles, it makes it an even better investment than it was 6 months ago. Your Mac will run quieter as well.by Andrew Stone - Café LA - X

Re: X is here (also new Motion and Compressor) - 11 years ago
Based on the marketing material from Apple there doesn't appear to be a lot of new stuff in Compressor, just a lot of window dressing. I hope to be proven wrong.by Andrew Stone - Café LA - X

Convergent Design, of nanoFlash fame, have had to create a dual SSD RAID array in their soon to be released uncompressed 444 10 bit "Gemini" recorder. SSDs, like HDDs and flash memory in general, suffer from throughput degradation that we have experienced with HDDs. I hope Apple has built in an automated SSD optimization routine, so this doesn't rear it's ugly head on laptops that regulby Andrew Stone - Café LA
