Anyone have any luck importing native from Canon XF305 camcorder?

I am running Lion and FCP X 10.0.5........Wonder if anyone has a recommendation for cleanest situation other
than native if they have been using it with X allready
Many thanks

I'm importing from XF cameras as we speak.
Here's the problem I'm trying to work around though.....
My understanding was that FCP X could import footage 'in the background' while you get to edit.
Hmmm..... well, to a certain extrent it can, as in you can keyword etc, but if you even think about skimming over some footage, set in/out or add anything to the timeline then importing pauses.
Am I missing something fundamental here? This is not what I call importing in the background.
Ideas?

TS1363 I'vw tried everything here multiple times, anyone have any luck with another non-apple generated solution?

Any time I try to connect to itunes, windows recognizes the ipod, but it never comes up in itunes. When the bubble for "trust" or "dont trust" comes up, I tap trust. Then I hear the window sound for disconnecting something from a usb port. I tried all the apple solutions, nothing helped at all. Anyone have any ideas? I tried full restoring the ipod too, and now I've got an empty ipod that I cant connect to itunes....fantastic...

After having communicated with Bose extensively over the last two months I'm pretty sure there is no solution to this. Bose are not the only phones that exhibit this, but there are only a handful that do and they all support multi-link technology in BT 4.0. One theory is that in searching for other devices to link is what causes the skipping, but in none of these is there an option to turn off multi-link (which might be the solution).
The good news is that CES has introduced a TON of new BT headphones, and we'll see these come to market this spring. One or more of them may well work for folks (for audiophiles the best looking one so far is Sennhesier's Momentum series, already a respected model among wired sets, the BT version is getting excellent early reviews. But pricey). Unless you need something immediately my advice would be to wait a few months and see what comes out.
You are correct that Powerbeats have sync issues -- sync issues are common with bluetooth but some makers do better than others. My portable BT receivers, for example, have excellent sync across all apps. But as I noted above, this isn't a good solution for those on the go (pairing a portable BT receiver with otherwise wired phones -- although if folks are interested my new favorite is the Fidelio X2/27 model with these. Truly audiophile level sound, at a reasonable price. But not something I'd take out of the house :>).

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.

Anyone have any luck with the tascam 144?

i am buying a tascam 144 usb interface in about a week cus someone told me it worked well with garage band but now i am having second thoughts cus i have read that a lot of people have trouble getting garage band to recognize it. anyone got any advice?
also how do you turn the volume of a track up during the mastering process, without clipping, so that your song is as loud as a commercial cd?
thanks

i am still a bit confused though
can someone explain how compression or limiting raises the volume cus a i am stil new : )
Compression is confusing, and people are often confused by what it does and how it works, so you’re not alone! It’s also used in a number of ways for different purposes, many of them “so that’s how they do that!” familiar, and others not so obvious. It’s been an essential part of the recording process throughout the history of recording, and great compressors, like great guitar amps, are sought-after pieces of gear.
To understand conceptually how compressors work to make things louder (which isn’t their only use, but is the topic of the thread), you need to understand the difference between peak and average levels. Average volume levels are what give you a sense of how loud the music is, peak levels are the occasional spike. A peak level may be so short, you barely perceive it.
When you raise the volume level on the whole track to the point just underneath clipping, it’s going to look to the peaks, and bring them up to the top of the volume scale. Everything else (and average levels) are going to be below that. If you tried to raise the volume any higher to get average levels higher – so it sounds louder – you would be lifting your peak levels into the clipping range. And clipping is bad.
So, the trick is to lower the volume on just the peaks so you can raise the volume on the entire track and make the average levels louder. Compression does that by kicking in above a threshold that you set (or is set in the preset), and lowering levels above that threshold by a certain ratio. If the settings are gentle, you may not notice it. If the settings are aggressive, you may not only notice it, but it can create ugly artifacts. In any case, above a certain threshold, it restrains the volume, taming the peaks.
After it tames the peaks (which may incidentally, be only a few imperceptible spikes) the audio flows into a “makeup gain” stage that’s essentially a volume knob. When first compressed, with reduced peaks, the track is no louder than it was before – and with lower peaks may even be softer. However, with the lowered peaks, the makeup gain stage is able to raise the overall volume higher than before, since (if you can picture it) there’s less distance between the new shorter peaks, and where most of the song volume lives below them. So first the compressor squashes the peaks, then the makeup gain can bring everything up... even higher.
Turning off normalize is kind of a “cheat” because it works by allowing you to bring the peaks into clipping (and therefore raise the overall level). In other words, rather than tame the peaks, you let them clip. Because some songs (and people) will tolerate some clipping, it’s a fast and easy way to raise the volume. Artful use of compression and limiting (which is extreme compression above a certain threshold) can get you to the same place without clipping.
Compressors are also often used on voice and instruments to “fatten them up” where the goal isn’t necessarily to make things louder, but to make things sound fuller by lifting up the low-level stuff that might be otherwise inaudible.
Compressors are not without their price. If you overuse a compressor, the dynamic range can be squashed into lifelessness. Also (and particularly with bad compressors), you can sometimes hear the action of the compressor when it kicks in above a certain threshold, and when it releases below it, what's called "pumping."
You might want to check out some other sites on the net to really understand the concept because once you understand it, you can use it to shape the sound of your tracks in powerful ways, and avoid pitfalls.
But I wouldn’t worry about it too much! Understand it as much as you can, but if you just dive in and do it, and use your ears to determine what sounds good or bad to you, you can learn by doing pretty quick.

Problem importing footage from Canon XF305 into fcp

I have footage from a card having recorded on a Canon XF305. I literally dragged and dropped card onto my desktop making sure not to change any file names. I am now trying to import this footage from my desktop into fcp. I have downloaded the canon fcp plugin but everytime I try to import the footage using the canon plugin preferences I get an error message which reads... "AA0229" contains unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure. Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches supported media. Can anyone help me??

Hi there,
I've had no joy with this. Have tried everything. Just can't get footage into fcp any way I try. I have downloaded the plugin but I still get the same error message. "AA0229" contains unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure. Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches supported media.
My work flow is as follows.
Open final cut pro. Go to log and transfer. Go to preferences within the log and transfer window and click on Canon XF plugin. Then go to import. Click on file on my desktop which is labeled as CLIPS001. Then error message comes up.
Memory card was dropped directly onto my laptop and onto a back up drive without changing any file names. Was thinking this would be straight forward.
Any help will be hugely appreciated. Am I missing something simple?

Help needed: How to import video from Canon Legria Camcorder FS306?

Dear all,
After happily purchasing Canon Legria Camcorder FS306, I realise that my IMOVIE HD could not detect the camcorder when connected to my Macbook pro.
Have 2 questions here:
1. Is it impossible for IMovie HD to detect newer camcorders? Should I then upgrade to IMOVIE09?
2. Currently, Canon Legria Camcorder FS306 is not listed as 1 of the supported camcorders for IMOVIE09. It is one of the newer models. Is IMOVIE09 able to import video from this camcorder now? Or in the near future? Or it may never be supported?
Tks!
Gam

You would need imovie 09 to use this camcorder.
This camcorder is not on the iMovie 09 supported list. However, every Canon camcorder since 2008 has supported iMovie 08 and 09, so odds are good that this one will, too. Odds are good that it works right now. IF you want to know for sure, call Canon. ....or take your camera to an Apple Store and hook it up.
It might be possible to do some manual conversions and continue to use iMovie 6. For example, you could try converting the MPEG2 files to DV using a tool like MPEG Streamclip. You would also need the $20 Apple QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component. I find iMovie 09 to be a much better editor, but if you are comfortable with iMovie 06, this might be worth a try for you.

Anyone have any luck on sequencing Itunes 12?

Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone has had any success on sequencing itunes 12. I followed the instructions for iTunes 11 here:
http://stealthpuppy.com/sequencing-apple-itunes-11-with-app-v-5/
but, it didn't work properly.
One of the issues I have is that when you launch iTunes, you get the following message:
Thinking it was because the ipod server was not started, I went back and re-sequenced it from manual to automatic, still did not work.
Also, This is going to be used in a lab environment, so it needs to be FULLY setup, the webpage said not to run it, but, I did it anyway-didn't keep my settings.
any ideas?

Have you installed Apple Application Support and Apple Mobile Device Support on sequencer before sequencing and on the client PC before running the iTunes package?

Anyone have any luck getting a photo editing program for 10.9.1 ? (other than iPHOTO / Aperature)

I was using Elements 11 with Mountain Lion and that was OK but the reviews for Elements 12 compatability with 10.9 are all pretty bad. The folks at Adobe claim that Elements 12 "can be installed" on 10.9.1 but they dont actually state that it "works". I'm just trying to avoid spending the big bucks for the full Photoshop program and Im not even sure that would work either. I have this great new iMAC and cant play around with it yet. Suggestions ?

I have used all of the following on Maversicks, with no issues at all:
iPhoto
Aperture
Acorn
Graphic Converter
Intensify Pro
Snapheal
I've not seen any reports indicating any issues with other apps either. I would strongly echo Larry's comments about App Store reviews, and reviews on download sites and forums up and down the internet. The great thing about the internet is that everyone has an opinion, that might also be the worst thing.
The problems with these comments are manifold: for a start, happy people are less likely to review, unhappy happy are much more inclined to. That's why we don't have thousands and thousands of posts on this forum from all the people who have no problems saying "look I have no problems". Unhappy people get cross and are more likely to express that anger in negative reviews.
Then what about the reviewer? What is his or her knowledge, experience and skill level? No doubt they are having problems, and real ones, but how do you know if their issues are problems with the app, their own inexperience, third party conflicts and so on. I've seen people on here claim the fact that iPhoto won't edit video is a bug. I've seen hundreds and hundreds of posts from folks on here who are certain they've found a bug, only for their glitch to be resolved. No review is worth anything unless you know something of the reviewer, his or her knowledge and experience.
So frankly, I never bother with those reviews on any such stores, not just iPhoto on the Mac App Store.

Anyone have any luck installing the PCI-8212 in a Dell PC w/ NT 4.0 and the new PCI 66MHz/64 bit bus?

NI-488.2 ver 1.7 won't reconginize the card. I got the card to work in an older PC with the original PCI bus. NI's answer was to use a different OS like Win 98. The application I'm using requires NT 4.0. Any suggestions? I followed the installation procedures exactly on a fresh install of NT brought up to SP6 and IE5.5.

Matt,
Do you have another computer that you can try the PCI-8212 in? That
should tell you whether or not is is a problem with the card.

Anyone have any luck finding a messenger bag that fits a Y70

So I bought a Y70 and I love it, but for the life of me, I cant find a messenger bag on amazon that is actually large enough to hold it and a charger and a few accessories. I can only find the one Lenovo recommends, and while it does hold the laptop, I dont really care for its ability to carry much else. Everyone keeps suggesting the timbuck2 classic bag in extra large, but it seems they do not make it anymore. Any input would be awesome.

Trouble importing images from Canon EOS to iPhoto

When I returned from my daughter's wedding with about 400 irreplacable photos I discovered that I could not import photos from my Canon EOS to iPhoto on my iMac. When I initially connect my camera to the computer the images display perfectly. However, when I click "import all" the downloaded images all appear completely blank (gray). I don't have any difficulty importing images from my iPhone.

I have had a similar experience with a few greyed out images I did not bother too much because it was not important at the time. I was wondering if you could save them into another format or file and then try importing them from there.

Im having problem with the dvd quality, I'm using compressor to convert the video fils from apple prores to mpeg2 .It doesn't matter how long my video is even if its just 5 minutes I'm getting cut edges in the video , does anyone have any idea ?

Im having a problem with the dvd quality, I'm using compressor to convert the video fils from apple prores to mpeg2 .It doesn't matter how long my video is even if its just 5 minutes I'm getting cut edges/lines in the video specialy if i have titles it comes up really bad , I took the same video to a friend of mine who have PC and he uses Encore , did the encoding there and it was just fine no problems! BTW I tried using doferent setings in compressor from CBR and VBR I even pushed up the setings to 8 or 9 BR and still no luck !
does anyone have any idea ?
Thanks in advence ...

Let's focus attention on just the Sony. (What model and what resolution are you shooting?)
For now, I'll assume you're shooting 1080i.
Take a representaive clip into a new sequence. Add a title.
In your sequence, make sure field dominance is set to Upper.
Set render settings to Pro Res 422.
After rendering, export QT self contained.
Import into Compressor (I'm now referring to v3.5).
Select the 90 minute Best quality DVD preset.
Open frame controls and turn on (click the gear icon). Set Resize filter to Best.
Submit burn and check quality on TV.
Good luck.

iPhoto keeps crashing! - then needs to repair the library. This is happening each time I import photos or even try to go in to an even and delete photos etc. Does anyone have any suggestions? Please it is so frustrating - I used to love iPhoto - now I regret upgrading to Lion

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
