Selective Deselection? - 15 years agoOkay, I did look, but can't figure out how to do this. Say you just selected a rat's nest of items in the timeline, and you're about to OPT-V to paste a copied filter. But there's ONE CLIP in the middle of that tangled mess that you DON'T want to apply the filter to... Is the a click modifier to remove a single item from a larger selection? Thanks in advanceby drtuzi - Café LA Re: OT, but editing-related - 15 years agoBen King Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > WARNING!! DO NOT BUY A LACIE HDD - YOU HAVE BEEN > WARNED!! Agreed on suicidal tendencies of LaCie - I wish I'd found a thread like this last month when mine went down. Didn't know about CalDigit. I bought a Glyph raid. It's been great so far. Anybody had experience with Glyph? Hope I'm not looking at troubleby drtuzi - Café LA Spazz-out(?) - 15 years agoworking on FCP 6.0.4 - I set i/o points in timeline, export to compressor, set it up, hit submit and wait (and please, anybody, that constant batch monitor warning? how do I get rid of that?) but I digress... The output from compressor is great - I click back to FCP and hit play to get back to work I hear audio running, but the frame doesn't change in the canvas, sometimes it's white,by drtuzi - Café LA Re: Baffling Audio Drift - didn't work - 15 years ago1. on ass't machine - changed sequence settings to 48/16 2. resampled 44.1 audio to 48/16 in sound studio and saved as newaudiofile 3. reconnected sequence to newaudiofile - PLAYS FINE ON THAT MACHINE 4. transfer new project file (with 48 settings) and newaudiofile back to main intel 5. reconnect everything - same problem - file attribute mismatch - driftby drtuzi - Café LA Re: Baffling Audio Drift -PS - 15 years agoOh yeah - Both running same version of FCP: 6.0.4by drtuzi - Café LA Baffling Audio Drift - 15 years ago1. I create a sequence with desired settings and media on the main box 2. I copy these exact same files (manually) to assistant's HD 3. She does rough line up while I work on other things 4. I copy the sent sequence back to my HD and reconnect original media 5. I get a FILE ATTRIBUTE MISMATCH - Media start and end (confusing as it's an exact copy, no destructive edits performed on it) 6. surby drtuzi - Café LA Re: Disable Frame Blending? - 15 years agoA MILLION THANKS, JOEY -- I couldn't find that oneby drtuzi - Café LA Disable Frame Blending? - 15 years agoI know you can disable frame blending before you apply a speed change... But what if you've already done it on too many clips to want to want to disable manually? (Doh!) Is there a way a way to globally disable frame blending in a sequence (after applied?) Or, so I don't screw myself up in the future - to set the default behavior in speed dialog to frame blending=OFFby drtuzi - Café LA Re: Erratic Exports - 15 years agohuh... The guys in the FCP forum recommended I edit the animation footage in a prores sequence to avoid some frame display inaccuracies I was experiencing. Just so I'm clear -- is it the fact that I've changed sequence codecs that makes the timecode go missing? Ot the fact that I captured in Animation to begin with? Thanksby drtuzi - Motion Re: Erratic Exports - 15 years agofootage is computer screen capture - 1344x840 animation codec 25fps FCP sequence is 1280x720 ProRes 25fps I let the "send to" command create settings in motion - I don't usually touch those (excellent Rippletraining Vids, BTW)by drtuzi - Motion Erratic Exports - 15 years agoWorking with FCP 6.0.4 and Motion 3.0.2 - I carefully select a range of clips in the FCP timelime, send them to motion and... WTF? A project opens in motion and there's nothing there. Or all the clips have turned into stills, sometimes all the same still. The motion timeline shows material of the same duration - but there's no, well, MOTION. It just lays there. And this is before any effects hby drtuzi - Motion Best option for holding on a frame? TIFF OR PNG? - 15 years agoEditing HD computer screen capture - many times I need to create a still from footage to hold on a frame. I've been using export using QT conversion>still image>PNG. It looks pretty seamless to my eye when output - but wanted to make sure that's the best route. Any issues I should consider? Thanksby drtuzi - Café LA twisted offline workflow - 15 years agoMy raw footage is computer screen capture in Animation codec - 1344x840. (I got the message, btw, sequence settings now set to ProRes). The final output will be 1280x720p. The narration was scripted and recorded separately from screen capture. So there are two steps: 1. String it together like it was shot by a surveillance camera ? basic conforming of audio to screen action. 2. Add pans,by drtuzi - Café LA Re: Not Frame Accurate - 15 years agoUPDATE: Trashed all my render files and converted all sequences to ProRes Here's hoping - better performance tomorrowby drtuzi - Café LA Re: Not Frame Accurate - 15 years agoSorry for not checking back sooner - been swamped! Thanks for the advice - yes, indeed, it is an HD software instructional video - capturing the action on the screen. I was told by guys I thought knew better than me that I should capture in Animation codec. So I assumed i should stick to Animation in sequence settings. Can I switch midstream without ruining everything? Create a new sequby drtuzi - Café LA Not Frame Accurate - 15 years agoIt's an HD screen capture project I'm editing - everything captured by me, 25 fps, animation codec, 1280 x720 - no surprises - but in the timeline - every fifth clip or so - the rendered material is not displaying properly frame by frame with ANY of the controls other than play. If rendered, you can't arrow in on the frame-specific action - FCP defaults to a reference frame somewhere in the middlby drtuzi - Café LA |
