16 x9 viewer: I think this is an easy one?

I'm working on an independent (super low budget) feature length documentary but am new to Final Cut after having been an AVID editor for a PBS station for the last 8 years.
I opened the software for the first time and my viewer windows are in 4 x 3 aspect ratio - I looked for the simple setting change that will change it to 16 x 9 but am not able to locate it. I know it's gotta be there somewhere.
Thanks!

You need to set up FCP using an easy set up that you elect when you first open the app.
That would likely be the 1080i/60 HDV set up.
You can change this by hitting command-I and clicking on the easy set up button and getting the right one.
Might want to start with a basic book on FCP.

    Hopefully this is an easy one. how do you disable timed slide advance in Captivet 3? I have not been able to find it anywhere. Thanks

    Welcome to the all volunteer Captivate forum.  Several options.
    - Add <Back and Next> buttons on each slide manually
    - Place click boxes on the screen.  This is a neat way to do it because the click box can be the entire screen with a 100% transparency.  However, users must know to click the screen to advance and then there is no <Back or rewind type option
    - Correct interactions can be added with click boxes.  Use Captions to ask the user to do something and when they click the right place, the series advances.
    Hope this helps a bit.

  • This is an easy one: One Apple TV with two Account (MusicMatch and PhotoStream)

    Hi,
    How can I setup Apple TV with my iTunes Account (for music, movies, etc) and a different iCloud account for Photostream. This is easy in IOS and OS devices, but I could not figure this out on Apple TV. Apple TV configuration takes the iTunes account and uses it as the default for music match and Photostream, can this be different?
    If not how can I merge the two with least hassle.
    Thanks.

    That isn't correct, when you go to setup photo stream, it asks you if you wish to use the account associated with the iTunes store, or use a different one.

  • I thought this was an easy one!!!!!

    hi, im still trying to print out the library path... why is no one answering????? please someone reply....

    You could try defining a system property using the -D option on the java command line and then from within your application use System.getProperty().
    Assuming running on unix and want to print the CLASSPATH environment variable
    java -Dpath=$CLASSPATH <application name>
    and then in the application
    String path = System.getProperty("path")

  • This is an easy one I'll bet.. :)

    I'm getting a long date variable from my database. I want to only pull the first 10 letters from the database. How do I do that? I know in ASP it's Left(string, 10) but what is it in Java.. I'm just learning. :)

  • I am hoping this is an easy one

    After many years of heavy hinting I have today been presented with a MacBook by my husband - all our iTunes is on our main PC but I have authorised the MacBook for my account and have sight of the shared home library.
    My main problem is that the home library does not split by Music, Audiobooks, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts etc and is just one single source. I have tried dropping items into the relevant categories to no avail. Can anyone assist with how to achieve a nice tidy library please.

    Again, I am confused by terminology. In the Finder environment iTunes (PC or Mac) "library" means a single file (well two similar ones) called "itunes library". So I am not sure what you mean by libraries plural. Again, do you mean these are in different folders, or are all jumbled together? In the itunes window iteslf there are libraries split up by main file type (music, movies, audiobooks). Then there are playlists which can be basically what you want. The itunes windows libraries are determined by itunes based upon the kind of file which is distinguished by the file type. You can't place an audiobook in a music library. What you can do is move various things into the Playlists which you create.

  • Getting redirect to work  -- easy one?

    Hopefully this is an easy one for someone to answer -- I'm simply trying to set up an action-mapping that performs a redirect instead of a forward. If I use the following xml in struts-config.xml (I'm using struts-faces), then everything "works":
    <action
    path="/search"
    type="com.wheels.struts.SearchAction"
    name="searchForm"
    scope="request"
    input="search">
    <forward
    name="results"
    path="faces/results.jsp"
    />
    </action>
    I get an error if I change the forward to be a redirect, however, as in:
    <action
    path="/search"
    type="com.wheels.struts.SearchAction"
    name="searchForm"
    scope="request"
    input="search">
    <forward
    name="results"
    path="faces/results.jsp"
    redirect="true"
    />
    </action>
    The error I get is:
    java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot forward after response has been committed
    Any thoughts on this one? Is there something I need to change in my Action class to properly redirect instead of forward? Something in struts-config.xml??
    Thanks very much.

    respected admin,
    when i connect my mobile with pc companion there's a update of 15.3.A.1.12 for Xperia L. But as usual for all user the update from pc companion becomes very slow while the update from update center from mobile means wireless update is comfortable and fast. But there is no update (15.3.A.1.12)  seen in update center.
    and as in the following link (of sony) its still showing 15.3.A.0.26..
    Can you say how long will it take for the update (15.3.A.1.12)  to come to the update center (wireless update) ?
    and is the update 15.3.A.1.12 officially out..and if no how much time it will take?
    Please do reply asap as there are many problems happening in .26 update.

  • Display vs. For Sale items... Need help thinking this out

    Hi,
    Okay, here's the problem.  I have created a separate catalog called Museum  for joden.businesscatalyst.com
    In that catalog is a sub catalog for Edwardian Jewelry.
    These products are not for sale, but I want to display them.   
    We also have a store with items in another catalog that are for sale.
    It does not appear that I can create a separate template for Online Store Modules that can be used for the Museum catalog, for when I add this catalog to a menu, it creates a product display but also has Add to shopping cart  buttons and the large images also have the add to button.  Since there is no inventory or price, it won't be added, but I am wondering if there is a way to keep this inventory separate from our overall store, display it on a different Module when clicked, etc.   Basically what I need is a display area for not for sale items and a regular catalog for sale items.
    http://joden.businesscatalyst.com/museum/edwardian-jewelry
    My client says that any catalog, even though it is a separate catalog called museum, will interfere with our inventory for the store.
    Not sure what to do  about this.  I could create static pages for sample items, but will lose our current museum of previously owned items and NFS items.
    I could create a gallery of special items for each jewelry period (BTW,  the fact that the photo gallery uses a complete folder rather than selected items in a folder is a real problem).
    None of these solutions seems to facilitate what I need to do.
    I have another client I am thinking of moving to Business Cat with the same issue. He wants to display samples of his previous jewelry creations that are not for sale, but also needs a current inventory.
    I'm starting to think BC is not going to be able to serve these larger clients.
    Jeff

    If you're wanting to remove the add to cart button from the template for products in a particular catalogues you're going to have to put something into place, BC won't do it for you in this case unfortunately.
    You can use the backup list view or a custom template to remove the add to cart from them.
    As for the detail view you just need to remove the '.moreoption' div - or if you don't want to show the price either then the 'prod_options' div.
    You could utilise a custom field (from inside the product options) and fill it with something like 'noSale'.  Then in the CSS have '.noSale .moreoption { display: none }'
    Add the custom tag field into your large product template somewhere at the top inside a class.
    If you fill it in, it'll hide, if you don't, it won't.
    There are other options, but this seems pretty easy. This also allows items in any catalogue to be not for sale, not anything specifically - so you could have multiple that are not for sale, multiple that are.

  • My Airport Time Capsule only works when I turn off and turn on, but I think this may end up with the unit. What can this happening and how to solve?

    Time Capsule Airport
    Hello to all, good day, sorry my english google, but it is the tool I have at the moment. I'm having trouble with my Time Capsule Airport, I made all the settings according to the manual, but there has been a connection problem with my iMac. When I finish my work I turn off the imac and then again when they return to work and care, it can not connect to Time Capsule Airport, making it impossible to remove the files and make back up by Time Machine only works when I turn off and turn on the Airport Time Capsule , but I think this may end up with the unit. What can this happening and how to solve? Thank you.
    Olá a todos, bom dia, desculpe meu inglês google, mas é a ferramenta que tenho no momento. Estou tendo dificuldades com a minha Airport Time Capsule, fiz todas as configurações de acordo com o manual, mas tem existido um problema de conexão com meu iMac. Quando termino meus trabalhos desligo o imac e depois quando retorno pra trabalhar novamente e ligo, ele não se conecta a Airport Time Capsule, impossibilitando retirar os arquivos e fazer o back-up pelo Time Machine, só funciona quando desligo e ligo a Airport Time Capsule, mas acho que isso pode acabar com o aparelho. O que pode esta acontecendo e como resolver? Obrigado.

    This is easier to do with pictures perhaps.. since we do not share a common language and machine translation leaves a lot to be desired.
    In the airport utility bring up your Time Capsule.
    Simply post the screenshots here.
    So here is mine.
    Click on the Edit button and give us the Internet and Wireless and Network tab..
    eg.
    Please also make sure you are set to ipv6 in your wireless or ethernet .. whichever is used.. and do tell which.
    This is wifi in your computer.
    The following are important..
    DO not use long names with spaces and non-alphanumeric names.
    Use short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    eg TC name. TCgen5
    Wireless name TCwifi
    Use WPA2 Personal security with 10-20 character pure alphanumeric password.
    read apple instructions to help with TM and TC.. they did finally admit it has issues in Mavericks.
    OS X Mavericks: Time Machine problems
    Mount the TC manually in finder.
    AFP://TCgen5.local
    When asked for the password .. that is the disk access password and save it in the keychain.
    Reset Time Machine
