Possible with larger timecode window with new FxPlug 3 functions?

Hi,
One of the things I miss in fcpx is a larger timecode window. This is a must when working in pair with a reporter. The small standard timecode display is just too small and too hard to read from a distance.
The new FxPlug 3 functions "allows developers to create custom interfaces for their plugins inside of Final Cut."
So does anyone have an idea if it is possible to make a larger timecode window that displays the source timecode?
Thanks!

Well...
The compression I gave you was h.264. A nice small web version that plays nice and looks good.
Not sure what compression at the size you were talking about would actually get you to 2 gigs.
I'd send him that... or ask for a more specific call on what he gets from the TV work. I suggest he open one of those files in QUICKTIME and hit COMMAND-I (EYE) to get the information. Have him post or send you a screen grab like this:

  • Need help with refreshing open window in new tab

    Hello all,
    First, all my other problems I've solved.  One last thing, being a newbie and trying things I've found on the net and them
    not working, I can use your help one last time.  My code has a Home page that peforms a Search (most of you have
    I am sure done this), and from that search submit a window opens in a new tab (browser tab) and has the results on
    it.
    That works fine.  What I'm having trouble with is being able to perform a new search and refreshing that open window
    with the new data.  Right now I am closing that window by clicking on the tab and then performing the search.
    While it works, it's not user friendly.
    So, I've tried the usual  mywindow=window.open("url.cfm"); and then trying to grab that handle to refresh, but to
    no avail.  Has anyone done this?
    Thanks!

    Here's an example of how you could do it.
    <script>
    function submitAndFocusTarget(form) {
      var win = window.open("", form.target);
      form.submit();
      win.focus();
    </script>
    <form action="index.cfm" target="mysearchwin" method="get" onsubmit="submitAndFocusTarget(this); return false;">
      <input type="text" name="search" value="" />
      <input type="submit" value="search" />
    </form>

  • Large Timecode Window Trick

    Hi,
    One of the things I miss from Avid in fcpx is the nice big scalable timecode window. This is quite essential when you work in a team where more people need to be able to see the timecode. As far as I know the only solution in fcpx is to add the timecode plugin on your clips and scale that up.
    I stumbled upon an Apple app called "Pixie" from the "Graphics Tools for Xcode" which is found on Apples developer site. This app can enlarge a part of your screen and display it in an always on top window.
    Just start the app, go to settings and turn off "Enable Development Mode" to get rid of the overlays, scale your window to your size and choose zoom level.
    By default it follows the mouse, so just aim at the timecode and lock the axis with CMD+X and CMD+Y. If it gets in the way, just select it and CMD+H to hide it. Or just move it...
    The numbers is quite low res from the scaling, but it is probably better on a Retina.
    Not a perfect solution, but a good tip I think!
    I attached a picture of it in action.

    MAYBE...with that. FCP doesn't do it on it's own.
    Why file names? TC is all you need. Make sure you burn ONE DVD per tape...name that DVD the tape name and then keeping track of footage will be easier.

  • Boot partitions with recovery and windows? new SSD drive

    Gang,
    I have a new Retina 15 and bought a larger SSD from OWC. I also upgraded  an older MB Air (from 128 to 240GB) and so I had an OWC Envoy with the original 128G from the MB Air in it. Killer by the way with USB3 support. So I plugged the Envoy into the Retina formatted the Envoy and then used that as a back up for the Retina using Time Machine.
    I swapped out the old drive in the Retina and then put in the new OWC drive and of course the boot recovery partition was not there and so I plugged in the Envoy which had it and formatted the drive then installed from backup and everything worked fine.
    BUT.... I no longer have a recovery or windows partition both of which I would like to have for this machine.
    So how do I do that? Reinstall MT LION?
    Thanks
    Gordon

    Gang,
    Ok here is how you do it!
    First create a MT Lion Recovery disk using Lion Disk Maker:
    http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/39701/lion-diskmaker
    Then do a time machine backup to some kind of local drive or as I did my TimeCapsule.
    Boot holding down the option key with the Recovery Disk inserted (I made 16 SD card, but a 8G usb stick or the larger DVD writtable drive would work as well) and select to boot to the Recovery Disk. When booted, reformat the root boot drive with GUID partition and then do a full install to your standard boot drive. This will create the recovery partition and load the OS. This is the only way to get the recovery partition created.
    When done then select the Drive option when asked for were to upgrade your machine from. Then select the time machine backup which will load all your stuff.
    Your done!
    Thanks
    Gordon

  • I just purchased an IMac with lion and I tryed to install an old math program that is for winmac running systems. When I try to boot the cd it comes up with a notepad window with a bunch of weird symbols and codes but the program will not start up.

    I just purchase my first IMac with lion and I was trying to install a math program I bought 6 years ago. When I went to boot it off the disk while following the program instructions a window popped up with a note pad format with symbols and codes but the program would not download or open. How do I get this program to work? It is a mac compatible program by the way.

    Your Mac probably does not know with which application to open the file and is opening a file with a text editor that really needs to be opened by the application itself.  Try starting the application first, then use the File > open command to open the file.
    As varjak paw comments, there isn't a "winmac" so that's not telling us anything.
    Note that it is possible that software purchased 6 years ago may no longer run on your computer.  Once we know what it is we can help more.

  • Why does MBP with Bootcamp show windows with blurry text?

    I have a Macbook Pro with bootcamp. for some reason when I open chrome or other windows, the text shows up blurry, searched the web and noone seems to have found an answer. Anyone with the same problem?

    I have tried multiple resolutions, it is exactly the same. In fact, when I first started it up in bootcamp because of the huge resolution all of the window bars at the top of the screen were tiny and out of proportion.

  • Firefox suddenly starting opening with a blank window with a strange top three lines. It has a window within a window as MS word does with documents. However, the window is completely blank and nothing can be done except close the upper close button.

    Nothing else except the top three buttons do anything. No sidebars, nothing. Blank window. I am using Windows IE to get to you now. Firefox is useless.
    I have used firefox for about 6 years and this is the first time this has happened.

    What version of Firefox are you running and what OS are you running?
    Have a look at this [http://bit.ly/f1dxog forum answer].

  • Photoshop crashes while using multiple windows with one image

    Has anyone else encountered the following problem:
    Photoshop CS4 crashes sooner or later when working with multiple windows with one image (window->arrange->new window for...).
    I remember having same problem since CS2. Is this a bug in Photoshop or am I having a bad luck?
    Technical specifics:
    Ps CS4, iMac, 21.5, 10.6

    Don't know.  I haven't heard of other people having that problem.
    Do you have a crash report I could look at?
    Or have you attached your email to crash reports sent to Adobe and can you tell me the date on one of them?

  • HP 5510,windows 7, new setup of printer, "unable to communicate with printer" when i try to print

    HP 5510, Windows 7, new printer, just picked it up!, "unable to communicate with printer" when I try to print a page, all network conections check out OK with Print Diagnostic Utility.

    Are you receiving any error messages when you print from the desktop? Its possible the print spooler is having issues which is not pushing the jobs to the printer. Lets restart the print spooler to get any old jobs that could be stuck in the queue removed.
    1. Press the start orb in the bottom left on the screen.
    2. Click on "Run"
    3. Type "services.msc" (without the quotes)
    4. Locate the Print Spooler service in the right column
    5. Click restart on the service link on the left
    After it restarts the spooler go ahead and retry printing. Let me know if this works.
    Thanks,
    Sean

  • Is it possible to open window with FPM embedded multiple times in a dialog?

    Hi,
    Is it possible to open a web dynpro window whose view embeds the FPM_GAF_COMPONENTu2019s FPM_WINDOW multiple times in dialog window?
    I have a web dynpro component WDC1 which use FPM_GAF_COMPONENT and provide the component configuration for FPM.
    Thereu2019s a WINDOW1 (with View1) in WDC1 which has a view container and the FPM_GAF_COMPONENTu2019s FPM_WINDOW is embedded.
    I have a button in WDC1 which create a new dialog window by calling if_wd_window_manager->CREATE_WINDOW as code below.
          lo_window = lo_window_manager->CREATE_WINDOW(
              MODAL                = ABAP_TRUE
              WINDOW_NAME          = 'WINDOW1'
              TITLE                = 'Test opening FPM multiple times'
              CLOSE_BUTTON         = ABAP_TRUE
    *          BUTTON_KIND          =
    *          MESSAGE_TYPE         = IF_WD_WINDOW=>CO_MSG_TYPE_NONE
    *          CLOSE_IN_ANY_CASE    = ABAP_TRUE
    *          MESSAGE_DISPLAY_MODE =
    *          DEFAULT_BUTTON       =
              IS_RESIZABLE         = ABAP_TRUE
    It works for the first time when I click the button, a dialog window opens with my FPM GAF stuff.
    But when I click the button the second time after closing the dialog window, it generates a dump with error message saying u201CComponent Usage Group MESSAGE_AREA_USAGES Already Existsu201D.
    In ST22, the dump was generated in WDDOINIT of view u201CMAINu201D on FPM_GAF_COMPONENT which looks to me like the message manager is already created in the first time.
      lr_component = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
      lr_usage_group = lr_component->create_cmp_usage_group(
                           name            = 'MESSAGE_AREA_USAGES'
                           used_component  = 'FPM_MESSAGE_MANAGER' ).
      wd_this->mo_message_area_usage = lr_usage_group->add_component_usage( 'MESSAGE_AREA_USAGE' ).
      wd_this->mo_message_area_usage->create_component( 'FPM_MESSAGE_MANAGER' ).
    I tried to remove the component usage of FPM in my WDC1 or delete  the component directly, hoping that this will clear the memory , but doesnu2019t work, only bring more different dumps  which make this look like a wrong direction as I am interfering the lifecycle of FPM itself.
    Can anyone share some ideas here? Thanks in advance.
    Best regards,
    Beiyang
    P.S. The FPM GAF works fine when I open the window in new browser (by calling if_wd_window_manager->create_external_window).

    Hi ,
    Currently I am facing same problem could you please let me know how you resolved your issue.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Finder opens a new window with tabs in the last closed window loaded automatically

    As the title says, I've found this happens more than a few times for some change. Maybe every time, I didn't count. Say, I closed a window with 3 tabs opened, then next time when I click finder to open a new window, I will find the 3 tabs loaded in the new window automatically. I am wondering if it is a new feature or bug. If it is not right, would anyone give me some suggestion to correct, if possible? Thanks.

    Yup. I think bring convenience or not is supposed to be the fundamental difference bugs and features.
    Convenience also comes with users' habit. I am sure I will get used to the new way as time goes by.

  • A single Firefox window with many tabs will not appear, yet other new windows will?

    I've had this problem a few times before. .
    Whenever I start up the browser, the one window with most of my tabs, about 30+ of them stays stuck in the taskbar. I know that the pages are loaded, yet for some reason, which I think may be that a single page has prevented the whole window, with all of the important tabs from appearing, to be the case.
    So I was wonder if there is anyway to fix this while saving my precious tabs?
    I can open up new windows by right clicking on the stuck window in the taskbar, which I have done in order to ask for help on this issue. I hope that this is understandable enough, thanks.

  • I use tabbed browsing. Firefox randomly opens new windows with advertising. Pop-ups are disabled. How to fix?

    I use Firefox with Windows 7. I use tabbed browsing, and the tabs show at the top of the page. At the bottom of the page, where the Firefox logo is displayed, Firefox will randomly open a second window with advertising. This is a Firefox issue because it says Firefox at the top of the new page. Pop-ups are disabled via Tools>Options>Content. Pop-ups also are disabled on the Verizon Security Suite.
