Missing IMX50 codec in Sequence settings

Hi,
The entire SD workflow from ingest to delivery to the broadcaster in our facility is IMX50, I can't see this in the list of codecs.
It's in the list of exports but we would rather not convert to another format and back.

Take a look at this and see if you can find something under Premiere MXF since it sort of sounds like MXF maybe a advanced version of IMX
Edit:  I just found this IMX 50 PAL item on CreativeCow but have not figured out how it was accomplished.
"Basicly the broadcaster needs an .mxf file at 50mbps so from AdobePremierePro I've export my sequence 720x576 DV PAL with the IMX 50 PAL preset."
EDIT AGAIN!
Here you are

  • Codecs and sequence settings in FCE

    Hello.
    I'm making a video for a local theater. All of the video is coming straight out of Adobe After Effects render queue. I've been having some issues however.
    The default codec out of quicktime is the animation codec. Which produces a good quality image. However the preset codec in FCE is the DV/DVC Pro codec. So when i add it it squishes the video and makes me render it, it just looks bad (the video is 16:9). I changed the codec in AAE to the DV/DVCPRO codec, and it worked, as in it kept the aspect ratio and didn't require a render), however the quality kind of *****. I tried to change the sequence settings in the Easy Setup to match something else (like animation or the proress codec) that AAE can export out of the render queue, but none of these exist, unless i'm overlooking something.
    So my dilemma is that i can't get a good quality codec to match up between the programs. The only one that works DV/DVCPRO has less than desirable quality. I always thought that FC was supposed to adjust its sequence to the first clip added, maybe that is only for FCP..
    regardless, some advice would be appreciated!

    Hi(Bonjour)!
    FCE is limited to 2 video codec family: DV/DVCPRO for standard definition and Apple Intermediate codec for HD.
    Animation codec in million+ color is the best quality you can get fron AE. But resulting movie have to be rendered when inserted in FCE timeline as FCE cannot use animation codec natively.
    FCP allow editing in many more codec than FCE.
    How do you want to distribute your movie in theater ?

  • My 2008 Mac Pro running Lion will not play HDV1080i60 footage in FCP 7. When I open the sequence settings, all HDV codecs are hdv1, hdv2, hdv3, and so forth. Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

    My 2006 - 2008 Mac Pro running Lion will not play HDV 1080i60 footage in FCP 7. When I open the sequence settings, all HDV codecs are hdv1, hdv2, hdv3, and so forth. However, when I open the project on my other Mac Pro running Snow Leopard and FCP 6, the footage works fine as it does on my newer Imac running Mavericks and FCP 7. I have tried a Quicktime update on the Mac Pro that the footage doesn't work on but it says that I already have the newest version of Quicktime installed. I have also tried reinstalling the Final Cut Pro Studio twice, still no fix. I'm completely out of solutions and need to be able to edit HDV footage on this machine. Any help would be great. Thanks.

    there was a recent software update that seemed to screw HDV up.  Do some searching here over the last month or 2 and you'll find a bunch of posts and some possible solutions.
    Worst case scenario, do as Shane suggests.  But might I suggest you take a look at the user tips section of the forum.  there are some great tips on how to prevent these sorts of problems by cloning your startup drive, etc.

  • Multiple Codecs in Single Timeline ---Sequence Settings

    This has to do with determining the correct sequence setting when using source material that is originally compressed in different codecs, some of which has square pixels, some ntsc "rectangular pixels," many of which are compressed at different fps.
    Is it best first to transcode all the source material to a single codec, with a common frame rate and pixel aspect ratio? And, if so, which codec?
    A good deal of the material is standard dv 720x480, 29.97 fps.
    Should that be the base codec? Should my sequence settings reflect that and have everything else conform to it? Or should I conform everything to something different?
    What I'm aiming for is to avoid constant rendering when I bring these different sources into the timeline.
    And, more generally speaking, is there a tutorial regarding codecs and mixing them in a single timeline?
    Thanks.

    Is it best first to transcode all the source material to a single codec, with a common frame rate and pixel aspect ratio?
    Yes...absolutely.
    And, if so, which codec?
    ProRes NTSC. Or DV50.
    A good deal of the material is standard dv 720x480, 29.97 fps. Should that be the base codec?
    No. DV *****...lowest end SD format that is broadcast acceptable. Don't do with the lowest common denominator...go with a GOOD codec. What are the others?

  • Sequence Settings for "Apple Lossless" codec !?!?

    Help,
    I am editing a project and the material was delivered to me in the "Apple Lossless, stereo, 44100 khz DV, 720x480 (640x480), millions
    Is there a Sequence settings I can use to edit this without having to render it in the timeline ?!?
    Many thanks,
    David Berry

    o maybe FCP is only able to work in certain formats without having to compress ?o maybe FCP is only able to work in certain formats without having to compress ?
    All the formats in the EASY SETUP are what it works with basically. But you can create custom setups..but they will NOT be realtime. That is what that trick is all about. If that trick doesn't work, then it is a format that FCP isn't gonna work with without recompressing. But audio still needs to be 48Khz 16-bit aiff files.
    There are other NLEs out there that do this...Vegas, SpeedRazor...you can look into using them if you are constantly going to be dealing with odd codecs.

  • Sequence Settings Missing General Tab

    Hi,
    I'm trying to modify the frame size of a project I've started in FCE HD. I've read the manual and several dozen forum threads, and I understand that this is done in the "Sequence settings" window. But my sequence settings window doesn't have a 'General' tab. Is there a place to turn that on?
    Thanks much!
    h

    Ah. Thank you! That helps my brain. A lot of references refer to FCE and FCP interchangably. But you're saying I can at least switch between DV and HD formats. Is that done thru the Load Presets button at the bottom of the Sequence Settings window?

  • Sequence Settings - missing tabs

    Hope it's just a silly question...
    My sequence settings window has only two tabs: Timeline options and render control. Do I have to change anything anywhere to be able to change other things as Samplerate, fieldorder etc...
    I'm feeling a bit stupid at the moment..
    Thanks for your help!

    So there is no possibility to change the samplerate to 44.1k or cut a movie in 640x480? Ok, I could render it in whatever size I want to. But if my original footage is 640x480 it doesn't really make sense to scale it up, cut it and scale it down. Hmm, that's weird...

  • FCP 6 Sequence Settings and RT playback problem

    Hi everyone
    Have recently bought a copy of Final Cut Pro Studio for my macbook pro
    I know to play video in FCP in real time all the sequence settings need to match the captured video/file settings of the clip.
    All my settings are matching, Ive tripple checked them but they are STILL saying I need to render the clip before playback in SafeRT.
    Have tried deleating files and re-importing them ect still no go.
    The file ive imported is a DVCPRO HD codec.
    I cant render everytime I want to play a video - thats not an option. It should be okay if all the settings match (Which I belive they do) but still not working.... is there a vital setting I may have missed?
    Im running FCP 6 on a
    Mackbook pro 17"
    5400 rpm sata drive
    NIVIDIA 8600 geforce 256MB graphics card
    160GB hard drive
    2.0 MB Memory
    this prob is SO WEIRD
    cheers
    h

    Yeah tried doing that, plays okay but really want to get the safeRT working properly
    wow - i didnt realize that the 5400rpm drive in the macbook pro would preform so poorley with compressed codecs such as DVCPRO which is a pretyt standard codec yes?
    I guess the 7200rpm drive now is def the way to go - i was getting one anyway
    so does it matter that the computer drive speed is 5400rpm when working of a 7200 rpm firewire 800port drive? I assume that if all the media is on the 7200rpm the computer internal drive would only be running the program, which would be more then enough do you agree?
    Its looks as if FCP 6 has some way of recognising the computer drive speed for accessing the media and determining whether it is fast enough or not, if not, wont even try to attempt to play in RT resulting in the red render line, no matter if I have my sequences settings all set up correctly and matching. This is something that I am unclear about in the software.

  • Sequence settings for HDV 720p 24 fps

    Okay, now that the French is gone I'm back on track, but still confused. I've captured my HDV 720p @ 24FPS footage using LumiereHD & it's separated & ready to go. What sequence settings/editing timebase should I use? I've noted people here saying DVCPro, but others said DVCPro is just problemic/not correct for HDV . . . and the Lumiere forum reccomends using the Apple Intermediate Codec, which I think people here said NOT to do . . . and there's a 720p24 option in Lumiere, but not in FCP . . . is it just like using 24p DV where you edit at regular 29.97? My head is turing into goo. Any sage advice, O sage ones? And I'm finishing on DVD, if that's usefull. Thank you!!!

    Don't stay nervous for ever, you're missing out on a lot of good stuff.
    1. Repair Permissions.

    Still nervous?
    I can't tell you what setting in FCP 5.1 to use, because I no longer have 5.1.
    I would convert the HDV to DVC PRO HD 720p.
    Editing in native HDV is a pain because of the frame structure.
    You will end up with larger files with DVC PRO HD, but since it's all "I-frames" editing and compositing will be much, much faster.

  • Sequence settings changed and digital cinema freezes. what now?

    hello there.
    i'm a new fcp user and i could really use some help on some issues that came up while working on a film project.
    the material was captured with the camera function of a digital still camera, which resulted in rushes of .avi format, 30 fps, 640X480 frame size.
    we then converted these into .mov clips using quicktime and compressor so that we can work without the need to render. we encoded them using the Apple ProRes 422 codec.
    i opened a NTSC project to work on this and have created a sequence preset having exactly the same settings as my clips (Apple ProRes 422, 30 fps, etc).
    i'm cutting the whole project on a macbook pro (see details below) running fcp 6.0.3 and i'm using a second monitor toggling between browser and digital cinema desktop preview.
    everything was working fine till yesterday, when suddently some sequences needed rendering (while they were working fine till then) and dcdp freezed (that is i get the first frame and i can hear the sound when i playback a clip or a sequence and then i get the current frame when i stop it).
    i've checked the sequence settings and i've found out that all of my sequences are now pal, 720X576, 25 fps. that's the first part of the problem. i tried changing the sequence settings, but of course i cannot change the frame rate; i've tried creating a new sequence with the correct settings and then copy&paste the clips from the prev sequence but then video and audio go out of synch by 2 frames. how did my settings changed all of a sudden? is there a way to keep my edited sequences without the need to manually re-cut the whole thing?
    as far as the second part of the problem is concerned (the dcdp not working anymore), i've tried changing my settings (going from full screen to raw, trying single frame against all frames, etc) but still it doesn't work. the rest of the settings are ok (eg. i've found in the forum that the checkbox about playback mirrored on the desktop should be ticked and it was already).
    this computer is never conected to the internet and it has never been manually updated (so there is not a way that an OS update is not working well with fcp).
    any ideas?
    thanx,
    nikos.

    I've experienced the exact same problems you are having and it's driving me nuts.
    It's not like my system has changed. I bought the Mac Pro and Final Cut Studio together and all was well when I first installed it. That initial project was an HDV project and DCDP worked great.
    Since then I'm working mostly on SD PAL projects and when I go to preview it on the desktop it does the first frame freeze when you hit play and parks on the current frame when you hit stop.
    I can resize the main edit window to full size and the sequence plays back fine but when I go to DCDP it just won't play at all. It feels like a bug but this is the first time I have found someone else with the same problem. By the way, I'm only using one monitor so the mirror desktop thing made no difference.
    I know the DCDP isn't great quality but it's fine for getting a general overview and I sure do miss it.
    Help us.......please......

  • PP 5.5 - DNxHD Matched Sequence Settings exports washed out video

    Just want to make sure I'm not missing something. We shot on Scarlet, and after color we got back 1920x1080 DNxHD files.
    Im concerned because after conforming, I'm using Match Sequence Settings to export from Premiere and my export video is washed out and different than the original.
    Here's the original DNxHD video that I got from our colorist. (all i did was change the filename)
    https://www.yousendit.com/download/TEhXNU1KTlF6RS9xYk1UQw
    This is the file Premiere spit out after using Match Sequence Settings (a little shorter because original clip had handles)
    https://www.yousendit.com/download/TEhXNU1KTlE0b0R2WnRVag
    Sequence Settings below. It's also worth it to note that even though I'm choosing 1080p 23.976 DNxHD 175 10-bit and clicking okay, whenever I click configure again under "Video Previews", the dropdown list has defaulted back to 1080i 59.94 DNxHD 220 10-bit. weird. 709 vs. RGB is not making a difference for me.
    My Export settings, just for good measure. "Use Maximum Render Quality" isn't making a difference for me
    Side by Side comparison. You can really see the difference in the hair above her left eye. Original has a bit more contrast.
    I can get good looking exports using other codecs and settings, PhotoJPEG works pretty well, but I know in a lot of cases DNxHD is kind of a standard for finishing work, and up until now I've done mostly broadcast and I've never worked with this Avid codec before. This is our first project with this camera so I want to make sure I'm doing the post-color work correctly. Our colorist already kinda boned us by not haing a red rocket and basically forcing me to take this codec. I'm just wondering if there is some color management step or setting that I'm missing. I really need this export to match the original.
    Thanks for all your help, hopefull i can learn something here

    Have you tried comparing the footage from inside of Premiere? Put each of the before and afters over top of each other in Premiere itself and see if they look different.  Honestly I downloaded your test file and played them from inside premiere right side by side and didn't notice the problem that I see occuring in your pictures. However I did notice a bit of aspect change or something. But nothing related to color.Anyways just try placing them in premiere and comparing them both from inside Premiere.
    If just simply placing the files inside Premiere doesn't fix the issue to begin with. Then attempt to change your preview file format in premiere to something besides Quicktime.
    But honestly in the pics you posted I can see a clear difference however when I pull both of your files from rapidshare into Premiere Pro on my windows machine using the standard mpeg preview codec I see no color differences.
    Like Jim said though Quicktime can't be trusted for color accuracy it has several known gamma issues.

  • Exporting multiple sequences from Premiere with Match Sequence Settings...

    If I individually select a sequence in Premiere and Export Media I have the option of checking Match Sequence Settings but with multiple sequences selected the option goes away. So I have to individually select the sequence, check the Match Sequence Settings box and add to the queue for every. darn. sequence. All I want is to export multiple sequences to Media Encoder with Match Sequence Settings (or add multiple sequences to the Media Encoder queue, same thing). Am I missing something? This seems like it would be used a lot...

    For PC users, of which I am one, the Preview Render codec in the Sequence is usually MPEG so best to avoid it. If you can actually use ProRes, then it's understandable that you'd want to "Match Sequence" if possible.

  • What sequence settings for MP4s  when importing them? Rendering is a pain.

    I downloaded some clips for an editing project and the codec information listed for them is H.264, AAC, MPEG-4, ODSM, MPEG-4, SDSM. I imported the files into FCP 5.1.2 as part of a new project so what exactly do I change so I don't have to render them every time I make an edit or apply a filter? I'm assuming I change the sequence settings but what exactly do I change...the QuickTime Video Compressor settings? Tried it for H.264 but it didn't work unless I missed a step. Thanks for any help.

    chances are Shane's excellent tip will get it all set
    up for you, but be warned that not all non-standard
    codecs can be edited "natively" in FCP, and you
    should not automatically assume that they can.
    if you are trying to work with clips in one of these
    non-native codecs then you should transcode them to a
    native format, such as DV, first. (you can do this
    using FCP's Batch Export function)
    After using the Batch Export function on the clips as well as individual clips I am receiving General Error messages when I try to import the file(s). Any thoughts? I tried Shane's tip as well and it works except for the audio rendering as mentioned in the tutorial. Not a huge deal though. Now I need to figure out a way to do the Multi-Clip sequence thing for 16 clips since it only does it one clip at a time.

  • How do I match a clip to sequence settings and sequence presets?

    I'm getting the warning: Attention - This clip does not match this sequence's settings or any or our sequence presets.
    I'm trying to figure out how to set things up in Compressor so that my clips do match my sequence settings and presets. The issue seems to be with the audio not matching.
    Here are the sequence settings:

    I shot all the footage with a Canon 5D Mark II. I'm using Compressor to convert all my original clips. The only thing I don't seem to be able to match is the Audio. I can't find any way in Compressor to encode clips that have "two outputs" in the Audio column.
    The dialogue box for "Sound Settings" in Compressor doesn't offer any sort of options, that I can find anyway, to generate clips with "two outputs."

  • Using Animation in your Sequence Settings ... Amazing!

    Well here's the thing ....
    And I'll start off by saying I have so much to learn about FCP but this has made a big difference to how my images look, especially graphics and titles.
    So I'm working away at my project and the graphic images that I import into the timeline from the viewer are just ok and I'm a bit disillusioned like so many people seem to be on these forums about how the image degrades from the viewer to the canvas. And of course it is apparent later on the QT file and then the DVD that's produced at the end.
    So one day, and I can't remember how it came about, I open the sequence settings and change the Compressor in QT Video Settings to Animation! Well what can I say, the image in the canvas was absolutely perfect and in some cases, it's actually a little better than how it looked in the viewer before I brought it across.
    I have to produce a DVD where each week, some of the moving footage and graphic images have to be changed over. A total of about 15 minutes and all of it of course is in this Animation sequence. The downside of using Animation is
    (1) the rendering time is horrendous, (or is that horrenderous?)
    (2) as I'm editing, the playhead disobeys what you ask of it and you get the spinning beach ball quite often (can take 1-4 minutes before you can continue again)
    (3) sometimes when you're playing through the timeline the image on the canvas and the sound quality are poor (processor running out of puff I guess)
    It's a bit of a nightmare but I have no choice but to use Animation now the Marketing Department have seen the difference and expect the higher quality on the images. Cannot get this quality with any other setting I've tried in the Compressor setting. HDV1080 for instance means the rendering problem goes away but the difference in quality is obvious. The project has many different files and formats from HDV to H264s to Pro Res 422s and lots of various jpegs in various forms. But regardless of the project, I have experimented with unrelated sequences in different projects with the same result.
    My questions are..... has anyone else experienced this, is there another setting that would bring about the same results and lastly, would the rendering and the other problems significantly be reduced with say the top-end iMac?
    I have to tell you I almost didn't post this coz I have so little experience with FCP but it would be great to get your feedback. The weekly project I produce may take more time than it should but I have to say I'm happy with the results.
    Thanks for reading.

    Well... the animation codec is primarily used for sneakernetting files from one platform to another, mac to pc for example. It's a bear for a lot of computers to even play out a file without choking. The concept is make animation file, put on disk or drive, carry across the hall to the pc station, convert to something the pc station can use without choking.
    I would suggest you try a little experiment: take your input material and convert it to prores (NOT HQ) before import or WHEN you import (log and transfer) and work with that natively. HDV as HDV is really a cruddy medium. Prores will give you a much better color space and have actual frames all the way through, which hdv does not. Take a one minute section of material, load on some graphics and filters etc, render it out, do your whole production process and see what it looks like. Once you move beyond the artifacts inherent in hdv and h.264 encoding you might be surprised.
    Bad mistake to point out to marketing folks how cool it looks. You must be young!
