    Thanks for responding Tom. Yes I was trying to conform frame rates, I found a few threads/youtube tutorials that all used cinema tools. Now I've spent some time in FCPX I can see where you can conform.
    Appreciate your help.

    I have edited a movie in Final Cut Pro and the video has been smooth all the time.
    Now, when the one hour long movie is ready the video seem to paus every 5 sec (only for half a second). It does it all the way through the movies.
    What is wrong? All the sudden.

    We need info, info, info!
    What version of FCP X?
    Did you render? what are the project specs? do you use many compound clips? how much ram, hard drive space, how is the hard drive connected?
    It looks like your mac can't keep up. Maybe the bottleneck is the hard drive, or something else.
    Try exporting a master file and see if the video is ok.
    Also, keep Activity Monitor open and see how much memory pressure you've got.

  • I recently acquired Final Cut Pro and my concern is that when attempting to download old footage from cine or standard 8, that is 4:9 aspect. There does not appear to be a way of instructing F C Pro to automatically convert images to 16:9 ratio?

    Mac Book Pro version (10.6.i) Snow Leopard.
    I am an inexperience user and recently acquired Final Cut Pro to supplement my Imove application.
    My question is - How can I instruct F C Pro to automatically convert 4:9 aspect material (old cine and standard 8 recordings) to 16:9 aspect.
    At the moment I am adjusting each clip manually to fit 16:9, not a very good way to proceed! I have no problem with Imovie in this respect and wonder if
    F C Pro offers the same facillity? Can not find any clues either from Apple store or elsewhere.

    You mean 14:9, right?? 8mm film frame aspect ratio is  1.58. I find it hard to believe that your telecined video has the same aspect as the original film unless it has been explicitly trimmed to those dimensions. If that's the case, it's pillarboxed in the 16:9 format or letterboxed in the 4:3 format.
    You could try to select all your clips and in the Video Inspector > Spatial Conform, select Fill. This will cause your clips to expand to fill the 16:9 "space". This also means that portions of the edges will "overflow" the boundaries of the modern frame (most likely the top and bottom edges.) It shouldn't be that much and if you're telecined film is letterboxed in 4:3, it will be a lot less so afterwards!
    You can also select all your clips, assuming they are all the same dimensions, and adjust the (Video > Transform > ) Scale in "one throw" (if you turn down the disclosure triangle you can adjust width and height independently—I am assuming that since you want it to fit, you don't mind minor stretching.)

  • Can I capture with Final Cut Pro and edit in Premiere Pro?

    Since it appears that Premiere has issues with capture - at least for me but as I see it for others as well - and that I can capture with iMovie, can I consider using Final Cut Pro for capture - then cross to Adobe Premiere and the suite for editing, finalizing ? Or is there a problem to copy the shots/files from one program to the other (would they remain identified clearly so I could just import shots into Premiere afterward ?)
    Thanks
    Rob

    Hi Rob,
    When you capture HDV in FCP it creates a specific Apple HDV codec. This is a codec that is only available if FCP, Motion or Compressor is installed.
    The two workarounds would be to use Premiere Pro on the Mac with one of the above mentioned apps installed on the same system or convert to a codec that can be read in Premiere.
    Best,

  • Creating Blu-Ray DVD with Final Cut Pro and Adobe Encore

    Hi all,
    I am one of many with troubles creating a blu-ray DVD using Mac software. Sounds like the best way to do this is to do all of the editing in Final cut and create the DVD in Adobe Encore. Is there a way to export to Adobe Encore or should I just create a .mov file and import that to Encore. That way I think I lose the HD quality. I read that I could compress to Blu-ray format in Compressor, but I can only find HD DVD which is different. When I select create a Blu-Ray disc, Compressor won't simply create the file on my computer...it wants the disc to create.
    Maybe I am a little to new at this to fully understand, but why in the heck doesn't Apple get with the times and create a DVD authoring program that makes Blu-Ray?
    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    I have just completed my first blu-ray disc using FCP7 and Adobe encore. My workflow, once the timeline was complete, was to go to File>share>choose blu-ray as destination >export. The default encoding is H.264 along with an ac3 file for audio. It took 3 hours and 35 minutes to encode the 1hr 26 minute file.
    Opening encore, confirming you settings for HD, and choosing file>import>as asset each of the files (separately, of course). Encore imports them, then under Timeline>create new, then drag the files to the timeline. CLick on the build button and you are there. I did not mention that my original render was Prores422, but that should not matter here. No trouble with burning the Verbatim 25Gb disc.
    Encore will recognize that these files do not need re-encoding and burn the disc. It took 1 hour and 40 minutes to burn a 1 hour and 26 minute (17+ Gb) movie on an i7 iMac with an OWC 12x BD burner.
    Hope that helps

  • If I buy a used Mac with Final Cut Pro and other software pre-installed, will they be updateable?

    I want to buy a used Mac for video editing and there are alot of them with FCPX and other software already installed. If I buy one of these will I be able to do future updates to the software?

    If they were downloaded from the Mac App store, no. In fact, the licenses are not transferable. Technically, it's not legal to sell you the machine with apps from the Mac App store still installed.

  • Your experince with final cut pro vs adobe premiere?

    I've posted this in other threads here: I've tried the Final Cut Pro X 30 day trial on my old Mac Pro 5,1 (heavily modified) and my new Mac Pro 6,1 (8-core, D700s).  I have a specific benchmark that I run on an NLE when I'm testing it: how long does it take to export one of my movies to a 720p h.264 MP4?
    If we assume the length of the movie is represented by 't' (for time) -
    The old Mac Pro and Final Cut Pro X 10.0: 2t
    The new Mac Pro and new Final Cut Pro X 10.1: 1/2t + epsilon
    The old Mac Pro and Premiere Pro CC: 1/2t + epsilon
    The new Mac Pro and Premiere Pro CC: 1/2t - epsilon
    The newer version of Final Cut Pro X is substantially faster at exporting my movie than the older version.  But Premiere is still faster than it is.  Also, Apple still can't get the whole "edit the source footage raw" bit right; my source footage is all spanned-clip AVCHD, with files that are over 4G a piece.  FCPX can't just open those raw, it insists on putting a MOV wrapper around the footage.  There's no transcoding happening, but the file I/O for those massive files slows the whole process down significantly.
    Because I don't have years of experience editing with NLEs, I'm not married to any particular UI.  FCPX's UI is ... strange, but I didn't find it too difficult to become used to it.  If it were faster and more efficient for what I do, I'd reconsider it.  But for now, it's all Premiere.

  • Importing issues with Final Cut Pro X. Green flash and twitches while play back

    Hello, I'm having some importing issues with Final Cut Pro X and I can't find any solution whatsoever. Perhaps my importing settings are wrong?
    Anyways, I've done a lot of recordings on eye TV and HD PVR with some videos that are about 3 hours long. I exported them into H.264 files, which turns them into mpeg-4 files with AAC audio. Then I import them into final cut pro X and I notice it takes a long time for them to render the videos and I notice that there are some green screens and twitches while I play through the video.
    Here is a screenshot of the green screen that I'm talking about:

    Could it be my 2 video graphics card that is causing this kind of issues? Or is there any solution to fix this?
    In the past, I've used iMovie 09 and it worked out perfectly. However, the new iMovie 11 is terrible because it automatically optimzie my 3 hour long videos into making the importing process to (144 hours long to import). Is there any way to get iMovie 09 back or am I stuck on dealing with this Final Cut Pro X issues?

  • I have a G4 with 10.4.11 and would like to upgrade to 10.5. I am using MYM software that runs in 9, Will 10.5 support 9?

    I have a G4 MacMini with 10.4.11 and would like to upgrade to 10.5. I am using MYM software that runs in 9, Will 9 run in 10.5?

    How often are you using MYM in 9?  You could install 10.4 on a partition or external and bootup to do your MYM work.  Run everything else in 10.5.  This is how I transitioned my remaining 9 apps to newer apps for later OS X versions.

  • Formatting a La Cie Rugged 1TB Esatadisk for Final Cut Pro and partitions?

    I have a brand new La Cie Rugged Xl 1TB hardisk and a La Cie Sata II Esata 34 Expresscardadapter.
    1.) How to format the drive to work best with Final Cut Pro and Prores HQ?
    2.) How many partitions is best for this 1TB disk?
    3.) Which tool to use for formatting and partitioning?

    Disk Utility's Repair Permissions only works on drives where all of the following circumstances apply:
    •The drive has a Mac OS X operating system installed.
    •The files to have their permissions repaired were placed there by the *Apple Installer* application.
    •A .pkg file or .bom folder was placed in the Library/Receipts directory by the Apple Installer application, containing permissions information pertaining to the file on the drive.
    Repair Permissions does not work on secondary drives or on files created by the user on any drive -including, but not limited to documents, video, photos and music.
    To avoid permissions issues on the drives that you will be using for video, do the following:
    •Right click the drive's icon on the Desktop or in the Finder's sidebar and choose *Get Info*.
    •Go to the bottom of the Get Info window and click the triangle next to *Sharing and Permissions* to open that section.
    •Click the lock and authenticate with an Administrator User name and password.
    •Activate the checkbox for *Ignore ownership on this volume*.
    Do not partition media drives, as already mentioned. There is absolutely no need to format a drive using anything other than Apple's Disk Utility application. You do not need to use LaCie's proprietary software to format a drive.
