Any luck with FCP and DA-88/98?

Hi All,
I have to deliver a series of DA-88's (or 98's...doesn't matter which) for a project. Rather than spend the thousands it would cost to transfer each tape at a dub house, I'd like to save the $$$ and do it myself.
From what I've researched, the Kona 3 and the TASCAM DA-98-HR can connect to one another. But can they interface through FCP?
My main question is, has anyone out there ever successfuly connected a FCP system to a DA-88/98 deck and been able to properly output 8 channel audio? If so, what was your setup?
Thanks!

you may have a problem with the HR tapes playing back in a 88/98 due to the sample rate.
video ref is a viable option. you'd need to do mmc and mtc to the tascam from a midi interface in soundtrack pro. I've seen menu options regarding midi devices in STP but have never used it. I use Digital Performer to get stuff like that done. the midi timepiece AV will look at video (standard def analog/BlackBurst) and generate WC to lock up other machines, the 2408MKIII has the ability to use any input as SMPTE TC and will gen code from one of their accompanying apps.
Kona will output rp188 TC embedded in the HD SDI path for machines that are hip to that but the 88/98 etc obviously don't read that.
Why do they need DA88/98 ? can you not negotiate file based delivery?
Some networks that required stems on 88/98 will allow file based delivery, particularly with the interchange problems with obsolete/unsupported gear. I haven't had to do one in over a year now, and with the associated difficulties hope I never have to again.

Anyone have any luck with steam and wine

im trying to get any steam to work with wine and so far i've had no luck.
i have a 512 ATI RADEON X1600 graphics card and im using the open source ati driver.
have had some success with counterstrike 1.6. I start a game (local) but it is extremely choppy/laggy.
does anyone have any pointers on how to get it to run more smoothly?

I don't know how well the open source drivers are going to handle games, catalyst may work better but you will have to use the legacy driver (here) for an X1600, and it doesn't work with the most recent kernel.

Any luck with Sigma X3F raw files and 1.1?

I am still waiting to switch to Aperture as 1.0 did not support the Sigma SD-10/SD-9 raw files (.X3F).
Any luck with the latest 1.1 version? It is great that Apple revised the price on it but I still have to wait for X3F support because my camera only shoots in RAW. Converting may not be worth the effort and extra time...
Thanks,

Nope, no X3F support yet.
You can still use the program pretty well just by exporting 16-bit TIFF files from PhtooPro, just export in batch with corrections set to auto.

Two Radeons 3870 with FCP and Motion?

Hi!
Have you tried to use two 3870 with FCP and Motion?
I just wanted to have all 512MB of video RAM for my canvas and use the second card with my Matrox MXO to display broadcast preview.
I know it could be risky, but as I remember earlier the problems shows only while rendering some of the plugins in FCP (my test was on 2006).
Do you have any experience with pair of 3870 cards?
I've just ordered two of them:)
regards
arti

From what I've read on this forum, FCP doesn't work properly with two video cards.

Any luck with a 3.1.3 fix? Aside from the one(s) that have yet to work

Any luck with 3.1.3 anyone? I am captive to a wi-fi connection and its getting really annoying not being able to use the 3g service when I leave my house. The solution(s) provided so far have done nothing to fix the problem. This is in regards to apps crashing and no internet service while on the iphone 3g network.

I have tried all the fixes suggested multiple times then went to apple store and the guy told me I should buy a new phone? Just hoping the issue isn't dead as it still seems to be a problem for some, lots of threads about it still being reported as an issue.

Are there any magazines with articles and tips for Encore - English language

Are there any magazines with articles and tips for Encore - English language

The very best "chronicle" on Encore that I can come up with is Jeff Bellune's Focal Easy Guide to Adobe EncoreDVD 2.0, Focal Press. It was written for EncoreDVD 2.0, but everything in it applies to CS4. Now, as of CS4, Adobe Dynamic Link to PrPro has been greatly improved and strengthened, and that part will have to come from the Help files. The book is still the best resource for 99% of Encore, and I highly recommend it. You will not be disappointed. It is an invaluable reference, whether you have EnDVD 2.0, CS3 or CS4.
As for magazine articles, Encore is mentioned in some, but I do not recall any specific to the program. Same for books on DVD/BD authoring. I have several, that use Encore for some examples, and other authoring programs for others.
The closest thing that we have to the PrPRo-Wiki, mentioned in your thread in the PrPro forum, is the wonderful set of Encore FAQ's on this forum. Jeff Bellune and Neil Wilkes have done a great job of rebuilding those, and most were lost, when the forum underwent a major changeover about 1.5 years ago.
Next, just reading this forum will help one learn how to do much in Encore, and also how to solve any problems.
One other asset that needs to be pointed out is the link in this ARTICLE to Jim Taylor's DVD FAQ. His book, DVD Demystified, by McGraw Hill, will tell you everything that you would ever want to know about DVD/BD, and his FAQ site will cover most of the important info.
Great reading in each of those. That is not an all-inclusive list, but all that I can think of for now.
Good luck,
Hunt

When i search via mozilla i now have to go via mystart incredimail, which i thought i had uninstalled long ago, do you have any association with incredimail and is is now part of mozilla firefox 4 ?

Hmmm, Norton extensions are broken again in Firefox 4.0.1. It seems that Norton didn't allow for Firefox 4.0 security updates when they updated their Firefox extension for Firefox 4.0. Norton says they'll have a fix in two weeks. A Norton user posted a fix in this forum thread.

Any issues with PE7 and Windows 7?

Hi All,
I am considering purchasing a second computer. I have had great success with PE7 and Vista, But I can't get Vista on the new Alienware I want to buy. So, has anyone had any issues with PE7 and Windows 7? I have read many posts where there are issues with PE8 and Windows7.
Thanks, Stan

It's a toshiba laptop.
4 gig DDR3
core duo
320 hard drive - partitioned
I also use a dual screen - 22" lcd monitor
I don't use it a lot, since I have a desktop. I've noticed having a
dedicated video card makes a world of difference in editing. This might be
your problem; a dedicated high end video card is the way to go.
If I do simple compilations I don't have any problems. I usaully am making
a DVD of soccer games. If there is a lot of special effects I'll use my
desktop that has XP.

I'm afraid not. Mags like Computer Arts and others have occasional articles interspersed or specials (Computer Arts Projects) but if you want my opinion: You can find much better resources online. Most of these print articles are really quite generic and aimed e.g. at 3D artists who only do the occasional piece of work in AE...

Does anybody have any experience with keyloggers and a good program to detect one on your mac? I think I may have one.

So yesterday I found out that my email address password had been changed. I don't remember doing this, but it is possible I changed it a while back and considering I keep my email constantly logged in. But at the same time, two of my apps were trying to access their "store". I play a game called League of Legends, which has an online store, and it randomly came up with the message "Could not connect to Maestro" (credit card). Then, Itunes (which I rarely use) came up with "sorry, we could not continue with your purchase". I think it's very strange that all of this happened at the same time, but hopefully it's a case of a forgotten password and two games bugging/crashing. I scanned my entire computer with iantivirus and it hasn't found anything, but I've heard keyloggers can be a bit hard to detect. Does anybody have any experience with keyloggers and if so, what program did you use to detect and destroy it?

If you think that a keylogger has been installed the only safe thing you can do is erase your drive and reinstall.
I don't think that is the case however.

Problems with FCP and Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT video card

Not sure if this should be in the MacBook Pro forum or this one...
I am having trouble with the GeForce 8600M GT video card while editing in final cut pro (and after effects). I have talked with numerous people at applecare, but they say that they are unaware of issues regarding the video card.
The problem: It's almost like the card is unable to keep up with professional video applications. Whenever there is movement in the video I'm editing, I get lines across the screen. Not sure to how better to explain it than to say it looks like the video card is having a tough time refreshing. (I can take the same video to a much older power book, and it plays perfectly, so its not the source file.)
At first I thought it was an FCP issue, but I just started using after effects, and I'm having the same problem in there. If I edit in after effects, when I play it back (in after effects), I get the lines. I can then export the project to a quicktime file. The quicktime file plays perfectly (no lines) when not involved with a professional application. Then if I import the same quicktime file into FCP and play it back in FCP, the lines happen again.
Is anyone esle having this problem? Any thoughts? Any solutions?
Thanks!
Michael

I had searched the macbook pro forum, but not this one. It seems that the "screen tearing" issue has been talked about a lot, so I apologize for the repetitive nature of the post. I will say that I am fairly shocked that given how many people have clearly called applecare, no one there seems to have a clue that there is a problem with this video card. I have talked with at least 4 different people in the FCP specialty group, and not one had any clue what I was talking about... 3 of the 4 were fairly insistent that it was a video source issue on my side.

DIVX Converter/Codec not working with FCP and OS 10.7?

For years, I've used the DIVX Converter/Codec to output video files from Final Cut Pro 7.0.3 via the Export/Use Quicktime Conversion/Divx as a .divx file. But today, after I upgraded my OS from 10.6 to 10.7 and installed the latest version of DIVX Pro, the normal output functions pop the screen showing that the output processing has started, but it then hangs with "0%" showing in that screen. Is DIVX no longer compatible with FCP in 10.7? Or, is there some additional setting change needed somewhere to make it work as usual. Oddly, DIVX has no email contact information on its site's "Support" section and nothing in their forums appears to address this. Any suggestions or info appreciated.

You ask this question at FCP forum this is FCP X forum https://discussions.apple.com/community/professional_applications/final_cut_stud io

Any luck with FCP and DA-88/98?
