ScreenFlow export for FCP - 13 years agoI did a screen recording with Screenflow and now need to add it to my timeline in FCP. I tried a couple of different exports out of Screenflow but it always looked blur either as a QT file or in FCP. What would you recommend I use for setting when exporting for FCP. FCP sequence is DVCPro HD 1080 60i, vid rate 29.97by lhdor12 - Café LA Re: FCP won't open one particular project - 13 years agoI tried all your suggestions Derek, except for opening it from another work station. I am having the intern try to open the project on her home computer where she originally started the project. I won't hear from her till much later. I unchecked autosave and open a brand new project no problem but then try to open the corrupt one and it continued to fail. I went through the auto save vault aby lhdor12 - Café LA Re: FCP won't open one particular project - 13 years agogood question. unfortunately we don't have the proper firewire on us right now to test that. I think you're right about the corruption. nuts I hope not though.by lhdor12 - Café LA FCP won't open one particular project - 13 years agowe have an intern working on a project using our IMac, FCP 7. The next time we open the project we get this error message "Unable to locate the following external devices: Apple FireWire NTSC" We hit continue and then FCP closes down completely. FCP only does this for this one particular project. The intern was using an external drive but had made copies of the project, clips, and soby lhdor12 - Café LA FCP stutters on Animation clip playback. - 13 years agoFCP has been stuttering with clips on the play back. I have a series of Animation clips that are at most 6 sec long. whenever the play head gets to the third clip the canvas freezes but the playhead continues then a few clips later the canvas catches up with the playhead. These clips are originally exported from After Effects and brought into FCP. While in FCP there isn't any motion, filters, orby lhdor12 - Café LA Re: Beta SP or FX files - 14 years agoyou're probably right about it being SX. My boss is going to talk to her and find out what she is talking about. Hopefully we can convince her to stick with DVCPRO. Thanks so much for your quick responses. Good to know I wasn't going crazy.by lhdor12 - Café LA Beta SP or FX files - 14 years agoI have a project that was recorded on a P2 card. The project is done NTSC 1080 60i DVC Pro HD. My client asked if I can supply Beta SP or FX File for the web. I don't know what she means. Isn't Beta SP just a type of tape or is it a codec? What's an FX file?by lhdor12 - Café LA Vocal Transformer??? - 14 years agoI can't find the Vocal Transformer in Soundtrack Pro 3. In the help menu it says it should be with the Pitch Effects, but it's not. Any thoughts? Thanksby lhdor12 - Soundtrack Pro Recorded Computer Monitor flicker - 14 years agoI received some footage of a computer monitor, but there is a ton of screen flickering on the monitor only. How would you eliminate that in FCP? it's DVCPro HD 1080 60i Vid Rate 29.97fps FCP 7by lhdor12 - Café LA Re: FCP quits unexpectedly during export - 15 years agoI think it's probably the lack of space on my hard drive. I have to uninstall CS3 to make some room. I've been waiting for the disk so I can uninstall it. I have been exporting large videos such as this. It's been slow but working. I haven't touched the data rate. Other applications are starting to crash on me. i.e. IDVD and After Effects CS4 I will have to let you know if the performanby lhdor12 - Café LA FCP quits unexpectedly during export - 15 years agoUsing FCP 6.5, MAC 0S X 10.5.6, Footage P2 DVCPRO HD 1080i 60, 1280X1080.

Just like hot dogs come in packages of 8 and hot dog buns packages of 12.by lhdor12 - Café LA Re: Quicktime on Mac vs PC - 15 years agoAre you serious? Are they really that spiteful?by lhdor12 - Café LA Quicktime on Mac vs PC - 15 years agoI have exported footage from FCP Studio 2 off my Mac Pro as 720 X 480 16:9 Integer H.264, original sequence 1920 X 1080 Viewing the export on my Mac looks fine, no issues. I play the exported footage on my PC and it looks like there are transparent vertical venetian blinds on the images. Although, when you put the image at full screen it eliminates the problem. Why is that?by lhdor12 - Café LA Re: Rename source with PDWU1 XDCAM? - 15 years agooh man! I want to help so bad. The opportunity to finally help you out for a change. I just don't know. I tried looking for the answer and got pretty much the same thing, can't rename the source, but I think that?s bologna too. The least I can do is bump your question.by lhdor12 - Café LA Re: Can I achieve a better image? - 15 years agoNice plug in strypes! know of any other freebies plug ins?by lhdor12 - Café LA Re: Seperating - 15 years agoThe luma is very similar. I will have to play around with it. I won't be able to upload a picture of it till much later. The vignette maybe my best option.by lhdor12 - Café LA Seperating - 15 years agoI posted this in the Color forum too but thought maybe I don't necessarily need to use the Color program. But I understand if the moderators delete this post. I have footage of a little girl with sandy color hair on a wooden bridge.

The camera man didn't white balance and it was a rainy day out. the color is very dull. What I need advide with is, the little girl's skin and hair along with the wooden bridge are close to the same color. I am trying to make the girl stand out and have a nice rich color without the bridge swallowing her. what wouldby lhdor12 - Color Re: MPeg 2 and Apple Compressor - 15 years agoI dont' have access to post still till monday.

I tried croping it the way you say but that didn't work. The image still looks squashed. What would you recommend for croping it left and right?by lhdor12 - DVD Studio Pro Re: MPeg 2 and Apple Compressor - 15 years agoHonestly, I don't know. My boss just requested MPEG 2 version. He won't be in till tomorrow in order for me to answer that question.by lhdor12 - DVD Studio Pro MPeg 2 and Apple Compressor - 15 years agoHello, I have posted this question on apple's site but had no luck so far. With Apple Compressor I am trying to compress a video that is 720X480 3:2 ratio as an MPEG2. I can't figure out how to keep the ratio 3:2. The only options I seem to have is 3:4 or 16:9. Whenever I export it using either 3:4 or 16:9, the image looks squished. Any suggestions?

Apple will be looking at my computer for me but thankfully I am under warrenty. I worried about what caused it. From the Apple forum it sounds like a resent problem with new and old systems. I am wondering if there is a bug going around.by lhdor12 - Café LA OT: optical drives spits out discs - 15 years agoI was on the Apple forums because when I put a disc in my optical drive it spits it back out, no matter what kind of disc. Anyways, I went to the forums and found that a ton of people are having the same issue. Has anyone heard what's going on? is there a software update or something causing this? If so, why isn't apple helping out those who aren't under warrenty anymore? Just curiousby lhdor12 - Café LA Compressor - unable to submit to queue - 15 years agoHello, I am trying to use the Compressor to compress a mov into MPEG2 - Transport Stream. Once I get it setup to do this I hit submit and I recieve this error message "Unable to submit to queue, restart your computer or verify compressor is installed correctly" I restarted my computer twice with no effect. How do I verified it was installed correctly? Anyone have this issue?
