ProRes missing from FCP 6 - heeeelp

hi
i just installed FCP6 on my new macbook pro and the ProRes codec is missing. i can't setup a sequence with it or edit existing projects that use ProRes.
does anyone know why it wouldn't have installed the codec or know where i can get it from if its just a case of putting it in a folder? i've re-installed FCP6 3 times now and it still doesn't show up.
i tried a file created on another computer that is encoded with ProRes and i can view it perfectly.
I took a couple of screen-grabs to show what FCP6 says when trying to create a sequence using ProRes as the codec, and to show that there is no codec in the list.

the other projects i have tried to open and use were created on FCP 6.06 and i have updated my FCP to the same version.
I did another clean install today and it's still missing. I can't believe i am the only person to ever have this problem. started to get a bit annoyed now, haha,
any help will be greatly appreciated.
cheers

Same problem here. After a fresh reinstall and update of FCP 6.0.6, all ProRes codecs are missing.
Some of the error codes I'm seeing suggest that it's a hardware issue, but that doesn't make sense to me, since my machine is new enough to run Color. It seems like the codecs just weren't installed correctly.
I finally ordered FCS3, which should correct this, but if there is an outstanding computer issue I would like to know about it before I upgrade.
Thanks for your help.

  • What's missing from FCP X trial version?

    Hi, I'm using the Final Cut Pro x trial version at the moment and notice a lot of things missing when following an instruction book I have. Is this due to it being the trial version?

    Here is the latest help documentation.
    http://help.apple.com/finalcutpro/mac/10.0.6/
    The only thing missing in the trial version is the Additional Content. That is all of the extra sound effects, music beds, etc.

  • Importing a prores xml from fcp7 into premiere cs6

    I'm finally making the switch from FCP7 to CS6.  I'm trying to import an xml of a prores (1080p, 23.98, prores lt) sequence from FCP 7.  It doesn't have any effects, titles, etc in it, yet Premiere keeps giving me the file import error ("this project contained a sequence that cannot be opened.  No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type").
    I made sure that I created a sequence setting/preset that matches my prores sequence from FCP.  If I try exporting the xml from FCP as a DV or DVCPROHD sequence, it imports just fine in Premiere.  It just won't import the prores sequence (which is a bummer because all my FCP projects use ProRes). 
    I'm on a Mac Pro running Mountain Lion (10.8.2) and Premiere Pro 6.0.2.
    Any advice or help is greatly appreciated!

    I have a similar issue with a film I am trying to bring into PP from FCP. I will need to lift sequences from this film into a longer compile and add new sequences, and since FCP 7 is now dead in the water it makes sense to transfer my entire workflow to PP CS6. However, on import the XML file is showing fine in the timeline, but the sequence settings do not seem to have been imported properly and I am getting a 4:3 aspect frame ratio on a film that was 1440/1080, 16:9, square pixel, Pro Res HQ in FCP.
    I have tried to set up a custom sequence in PP with the same settings and also with the frame set to 1920;1080, but no matter what i do I cannot seem to get the XML file to import correctly.
    I have downloaded and installed the Pro Res codecs to Library/Quicktime but that does not seem to have worked.
    Anyone else got a a bright idea? Otherwise I will need to continue this project in FCP, which does not seem like the right thing to do any more....

  • Question about moving a project from FCP to Premiere to do color correcting/sound finalizing.

    My friend and i have been editing a film on FCP express. I've been learning more about editing and color correcting recently and have been teaching myself on  Adobe Premiere. I offered to color correct the film on Premiere on my system. I'm curious what the best way to do this would be. is it possible to take the timeline from FCB with the raw data and somehow open that in CS? Or should he export the pre corrected final cut without correcting as a certain type of file, then I work on that, then export that as the final cut?

    If FCP express has XML export, then you can export the project and then import the XML into Premiere Pro.  It will give you the basics of the timeline and basic transforms for each clip (position, scale, rotation).  However, not everything comes across - titles and 3rd party effects will not come across.
    Given that, another option is to render out the entire movie and then grade it in Premiere Pro.  But you lose a lot of control if you go that way.
    The third option is to import into Premiere Pro and rebuild the bits you might be missing from FCP and then you have both the control and options.
    Hope this helps,

  • Audio Files Missing after sent from FCP

    I'm sending a sequence to STP from FCP. There are 8 tracks of audio (4 stereo pairs). Tracks 1 & 2 have dialogue, 3,4,5 &6 have SFX and 7 & 8 have music. After sending a Multi-track project I am missing audio files on the dialogue track. The visual reference is there. The audio and video are linked in FCP but sections of dialogue are just not there.
    I've repaired disc permissions, trashed preferences, ran Disk Warrior and reinstalled FCS. I'm on STP 3.0.1.
    I searched the forum and was unable to find a similar situation. Any and all insight are greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    You have to assign tracks to a submix and then out to the master before you can hear them.
    But some of the audio files are there and some of them aren't. There is no rhyme or reason for audio that appears and files that are missing. I can hear the dialogue that made it to STP from FCP, along with the SFX and the music. I've never assigned a submix to audio just to be able to hear it.
    Are you on a laptop?
    I've tried it on my 8 Core Mac Pro and my 2007 MBP. Same result on both. I have other sequences where everything is sent over completely. It's just this one. It is no different from any other sequence. It is all ProRes 422 and .AIFF 48khz/16 Bit
    Thanks for your input.

  • Everytime I export from FCP using comressor I am lose my audio, any ideas as to why this is happening. Or do I have somthing turned off and I am just missing it? Dual 2.7 Ghz PowerPC G5 1.5 GB DDR SDRAM, Mac OS X (10.4.6)

    Exporting via Compressor may be recommended but it is slow and doesn't fully support all available filters, etc.
    Try exporting the timeline as a QT Movie (the "normal" export) using Current Settings and them submit the resultant clip to Compression. Works for me...

  • Missing Audio from FCP

    I have a sequence that I'm sending to Soundtrack Pro from Final Cut Pro. It sends and opens but I notice that there is audio missing from sections where I have .motn elements in my timeline. The audio is there in FCP...
    Is there a solution to this?

    Thank you Robert - that was the issue. The lack of underline on the .motn sequence gave it away!

  • Missing Audio from FCP to Soundtrack Pro in Final Cut Studio 2

    I've been trying to edit a sequence from Final Cut Pro 6 in Soundtrack 2 by sending the sequence to soundtrack as a multitrack project. For some reason, when I send it, multiple audio files from the original sequence are completely missing, and I have no clue why. They're .mov files from the original import of footage.
    Anyone know why these don't transfer and how to fix it?

    Hi
    I too have had trouble with Audio from FCP 6 messing up in STP 2. My opinion is that the process works if the audio tracks in FCP are either Mono sourced or stereo sourced and are never relinked, split to mono (in the case of stereo files) in FCP during editing. God forbid you unpair a stereo track and delete one channel!
    Once in STP I have had occasions where non audio appears, the wrong track appears... or sometimes the wrong audio!
    Once in a while double clicking on the offending clip in STP to open it in a Wave window seems to show the right audio. Either saving it of closing the window ( command/w) restores the right material to the clip in STP.
    You could right click on the audio in FCP and "send to STP Audio Project". Hopefully the correct audio is opened in STP. Then save it. Now re-export the Multitrack project and see if the audio makes the trip.
    Or, you could export the Audio directly from FCP, then import it into STP and position it against the video manually.
    One warning : once things start going pear shaped in the FCP-STP workflow, it's my experience that I'm fighting problems all the way. It's why I don't use STP for FCP mixing .... I want to, but its too risky.
    I hope V3 is better.
    Best

  • ProRes codecs missing? (FCP 5)

    I have Final Cut Pro 5.0 installed on my MacBook. I have HDV footage that I wanted to pull into FCP but I don't have the ProRes codecs which I saw were suggested to use. Are there any ways to get those or do I have to re-install FCP?
    My workaround for the time being is to import them via iMovie, but I know I will need to edit and export from FCP and again use the ProRes codecs.
    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    ProRes didn't show up in FCP until v6
    The upgrade path can be found on the FCP product page. iirc, $499 if you FCS1, $699 if you have earlier versions.
    Good luck.

  • Missing audio when sending from FCP

    When I send my project to Soundtrack Pro from FCP, Soundtrack opens and loads everything up, but oddly some audio clips show no waveform, and contain no sound, but the sound is clearly present and working in FCP.
    What could be causing this?

    mrjam, I am having the same exact problem. I have a sequence in FCP and am using the "send to "Soundtrack Pro Multitrack Project" command. I have tried this almost 30 times now and only twice has it worked properly, i have no clue what was different these two time and tried to repeat the process the exact same way to no avail. What a pain. I have no clue why this function doesn't work. I have a mono pair in FCP and when i "Send to.." there are no waveforms in STP at all, and of course, no audio. Funny thing is it did work twice! Sounds like a major bug! Have you had any luck?

  • Unable to output from FCP to Canon XL1.

    I have an eMac with Final Cut Pro 4.5 HD. I also have a Canon XL1 3 CCD camcorder.
    I have no problem capturing footage from my camcorder to my eMac on FCP. I can also connect my Canon to my VCR and record off my camcorder to my TV, as well as play the tape on my camcorder to watch it on TV.
    However, I cannot output from FCP to my camcorder. The 4 to 6 FireWire is attached to both the camera and the eMac and I checked the Log and Capture feature and FCP does recognize a camera or deck is attached. I've been trying to output it using manual record in which I press record on my camcorder and play the playhead on FCP. As I record, there is no picture on my viewfinder, nor any audio being recorded and when I play it back, I just get this blank blue screen, but the timecode is recorded.
    Am I missing something here?

    ensure the following are set
    View>Video Playback>Firewire Apple 720x480 (NTSC or PAL - whatever is appropriate)
    View>Audio Playback>Audio follows video
    View>External Video>All Frames
    If this isn't what you are set to do, you won't be sending video out to your recorder.

  • All of my titles, themes and generators seem to be completely missing from Final cut pro x. Do you know how to get them back?

    All of my titles, themes and generators seem to be completely missing from Final cut pro x. Do you know how to get them back?

    Do you mean that when you click the title browser, for example, nothing is there?
    Do you at least see several categories listed in the effects browser?
    First make sure that you have nothing typed into the search box (not even spaces).
    If you still see nothing, try this in order:
    1) Window->Revert to Original Layout
    2) Quit FCP X, delete preferences using Preference Manager (a free download from Digital Rebellion)
    3) Download FCS Remover, and use it to completely remove FCP X. This will NOT delete your content, just the application.
    4) Reinstall FCP X from the Mac App Store: log in with the same Apple ID that you used to buy FCP X, click on "Purchases", locate FCP X and click Install.

  • Problem playing back HDV from FCP HD

    FCP 5.0.4
    I am doing my first HD project and am experiencing a problem I cannot solve.
    Using both a Sony HDV HC1 and Sony HDR FX1 as playback devices, I cannot get the video to play back from FCP using HDV1080i60. Under Video playback, the options for the HDV are grayed out for the only firewire options:HDV(1440 x 1080) 30fps and 25fps. However, the option exists under Print To Video, and when chosen, will send HD1080i60p video to the cam>hi def monitor.
    I have tried every possible setting on both cams to find a solution. Using DV NTSC I can get a work around. The cam's will both capture and control via FCP. Thanks for any advice.

    No HDV decks will allow you to monitor external video from FCP through them UNLESS they are in the recording mode. So they just don't support this like DV devices do.
    You need to look at a card for this. Least expensive would be the Intensity cards from Decklink. I like the MXO from Matrox too for this too... does more output, but has no input... I use an Io HD for that... and turn that slow rendering HDV to ProRes.. much faster rendering, and visually lossless.

  • DVD studio wont recognise PAL footage from FCP

    OK, I have shot some footage on my Canon XL1S (PAL) and done some very minimal editing in FCP Studio, again set to DV PAL, I have added no effects as it is basically a video assessment for a friends pilates class. I have then exported it from FCP using Compressor and gone to import the footage into DVDSP...it has then told me that I cannot import NTSC formatted assets into a PAL project? Am I missing something?!

    Did you create a PAL m2v in compressor? 
    You might confirm your workflow.  Make your sequence timeline active in fcp and hit command-zero to view your sequence settings.  Confirm that it's PAL pixel dimensions and 25 fps.
    Either export a quicktime with current settings or send your sequence to compressor.   Apply the appropriate DVD preset and then doubleclick on the item in the batch window in compressor and review your settings for the compression in the inspector.  Again, confirm that it's PAL pixel dimensions and 25fps.

  • Best way to export from FCP X to iDVD?

    I believe this question must have been dealt with a number of times already but since I could not find a clear answer with a reasonable amount of searching I post my question here.
    I have Apple ProRes 422 footage (HD 1920 x 1080) in FCP X out of which I would like to make a DVD in iDVD. What is the best way of transferring the content to iDVD so as to preserve the quality as good as possible?
    As I understand it, two conversions need to take place until the material can end up on a DVD disk:
    1) The format needs to be changed from ProRes to MPEG-2
    2) The resolution needs to be reduced from 1920 x 1080 to 720 x 576
    And I believe there are at least the following ways to achieve this:
    a) Export the material as-is (ProRes 1920 x 1080) from FCP and let iDVD do the conversion to MPEG-2 720 x 576
    b) Export the material with lowered resolution (720 x 576) from FCP but let iDVD do the conversion to MPEG-2
    c) Export the material as-is to Compressor and let Compressor do the conversion to MPEG-2 720 x 576, which is then imported to iDVD
    Now, what is the best method to perform these transformations from a quality perspective (don't care that much about processing time)?
    I guess it would be good to not reencode the material more than once. Option a) would seem to achieve this but how good is the quality of the reencoding that iDVD does? Option c) could also achieve this and possibly with a better quality than a). However, I'm unsure whether iDVD really would use the material "as-is" without further conversion or whether iDVD anyway would do some sort of reencoding even if the material was imported in a DVD compliant format. And with option b) I'm unsure how much quality I lose if the rescaling and reencoding is done in separate processes.
    Thanks for the advice!

    Either a) or b) is fine.
    However, c) will not work with iDVD, which wants a muxed file. The Compressor presets were designed ith DVD Studio Pro in mind.
    I would let iDVD do the encoding and the resizing. In other words, give it a 1080 resolution Pro Res file with square pixel shape and it will do all the necessary math to preserve the wide screen aspect ratio (changing the pixel shape) and should produce very good looking image quality if you use the Professional quality setting.
    Good luck.
