Audio/Video Custom Settings missing

After backing up my HD, I reinstalled the system, then reinstalled FCP5, since it would not start up. Now my Capture presets that I adjusted for different cameras are missing.
I found one setting on the backup drive under /Library/Application Support/Final Cut Pro System Support. I dragged the custom setting to the startup hard drive but it won't show up.
Is there any place else where FCP stores the custom settings?
Thanks

Hi,
I can't find any where else that stores the custom settings, when you say you you dragged the setting to the hard drive did you mean the same folder in FCP system support?.

Best QuickTime Audio/Video Compression Settings?

Hello there,
Before inserting an iMovie to an iDVD project, I must compress it in QuickTime as it won't fit if "shared" as full-quality.
What Audio and Video compression settings will provide, preserve, or enhance the audio/video content? I have the latest version of QuickTime Pro and am pretty savy with it.
Thank you very much for any feedback you may provide.
Jacobo

You double posted in the iMovie forum. See my reply to you there: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=4038522#4038522

Full screen preview blanked out in from options in audio video settings?

Hi all,
Am running FCP6 and have lost the option to preview fullscreen in the audio video settings menu. It is literally missing, as an option, though the space the option inhabited is still there. Only options I have are to preview via firewire to my CRT monitor. I have tried to refresh AV devices and all frames, but doesn't seems to help/work.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks,
-Tom

Hi David and thanks for your suggestion. I gave it a try and no luck. Its just the same. I have no options in video playback at all unless I connect my deck and then I have only the via firewire options, the deck provides. BTW, I know its the wrong forum, but I have the same blanking out situation in the output filed in MOTION.
Any more suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Captivate - bitrate suggestions for rescaled project w video only capable of "custom settings" publishing

Hello all, it seems Captivate really limits your MP4-video publishing/encoding options when you've rescaled the project (e.g., 150% size so 'stage' can accommodate both powerpoint and video). I want to publish in MP4 video but Captivate blocks my attempts to use any of the 'preset' settings (e.g., iPad, youtube.., etc.). It will only allow me to publish with "custom settings" which means I need to select the target and maximum bitrates, which Captivate seems to have as 2 and 4, respectively, as defaults. (9 is the max available, btw). I can also choose if I want to republish each frame (or 'slide', can't remember which). I published the first time with the custom setting defaults (2 and 4) and also checked the box for republish each frame/slide. I just now played the resultant MP4 file saved on my computer and the results are really horrible -- continual stuttering and restarting of the audio and video (and a seeming improper synchronization with the powerpoint slides (somewhat different from the slide change points that I had selected and saved previously in the "edit video timing" option under "video". Again, this is just from playing it from my harddrive. I didn't even bother trying to stream it as the results would probably be even worse.
It almost seems as if Captivate can't even handle the basic task of producing a powerpoint presentation that has one long video spread out across the different slides, with the video sharing space on the (enlarged) stage.
Very grateful for any insights or suggestions!
Thanks

CUCILYNC with Lync Audio/video settings enabled supported ?

Hello,
for one of my customer I want to install CUCILYNC and Cisco Telephony for a part of the users.
Actually this customer user LYNC for IM/Presence and use the Audio/Video feature for making audio and video calls and conference calls.
In the CUCILYNC configuration guide, Cisco recommends to edit all the CUCILYNC users in the LYNC server to change Telephony settings to Audio/Video disabled (Recommended).
Is it possible to keep this audio/video settings to enable and to have 2 ways to make Video and audio calls : with Cisco capabilitites and with Lync capabilities.
does it work ? If yes, how does it appear on the end-user client ?
is it supported by Cisco ? And Microsoft ?
has anyone making this kind of configuration before ?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Regards,
Baptiste Croizer

Yes it works, it's just confusing to users as both buttons are lit up. If you set the registry key to IM only all of the Enterprise Voice-related buttons are greyed out.
Each vendor supports only their pieces.

Canon XL2 & Audio/Video Settings

HELP! I have looked some of the previous threads on this issue and tried changing settings, but am still having a mismatch between what voices are saying and lips moving after I capture and then play in canvas.
I shot at 16x9, 24p 2:3.
What are the best audio/video settings to use to be able to capture/edit and ultimately export to DVD while preventing this problem???
I have latest version of final cut pro.

Usually audio desyncronization (is this a word?) comes from the audio being recorded at 32khz and FCP looking for 48khz files. When you play back, FCP is madly trying to fix the missing 16khz and doing a bad job of it. the Audio often just wanders off into it's own world.
Does it start in sync and drift or is it off the whole time?
x
By the way - "latest version" is not a useful statement. What are the exact versions of FCP, QT and OSX you are running?

I have HDMI connection to the receiver and on to the TV - but no audio from my new Apple TV. I have checked all connections and the video is xlnt. Have also toggled thru every possible Dolby/Audio combination in settings. Help! Any suggestions?

I have an HDMI connection to the receiver and on to the TV - but there is non audio from my Apple TV. Not for movies, music, YouTube etc.   I have checked all of the connections and the video is xlnt. Have also toggled thru all possible Dolby/Audio combinations in settings. Help! Any suggestions?

Hello again Parker -
The basic setup is Digital Cable Box, DVD Player, Denon Receiver/Amp and TV Monitor. To that I added the Apple TV. The Receiver only has two HDMI IN slots (one for cable and one for the DVD) and one out to the Monitor.
[I bought a switcher to toggle the DVD and the AppleTV back and forth but just disconnected the DVD to simplify when I ran in to trouble.]
So now I have:
     HDMI from the Cable Box to the Receiver
     HDMI from the Apple TV to the Receiver (in the old DVD slot which always worked well)
     HDMI from the Receiver to the Monitor
     RCA's from the Receiver to the Subwoofer and the other speakers
In addition I have some backup connections:
     S-Video, Optical Audio and L/R RCA's from the Cable Box to the Receiver
     S-Video from the Receiver to the Monitor
Wait - JUST FOUND IT!
By going thru the excercise to track all of the connections per your suggestion, I found an anomaly when I switched Receiver sockets for the HDMI links. The video moved but the audio didn't. Turns out the monitor was using the optical audio feed from the receiver. So I disconnected the optical audio and the monitor automatically switched to the HDMI audio feed!   Looked promising...
So I first connected an optical audio feed from the ATV to the receiver - Audio! Then I pulled it, but the audio didn't switch to the HDMI feed. It stopped. Would be OK if all I was going to use is the ATV, but I need the DVD player too and I can't use a switcher to toggle between them if I have to unplug the optical audio each time.
This is becoming a career! Any suggestions?

Missing Customizing settings for software component ECC-DIMP

Hi all,
While running the T-code IE4n I am getting this error:
Missing Customizing settings for software component ECC-DIMP
This is working fine in IDES ECC 6.0 ,Could u please tell me how to resolve it for my othersystems.
Thanks
Yinyan Lu

Dear Yinyan Lu,
Please, have a look into the SAP note 767108 (IE4N: Problems due to missing notification Customizing)
Solution
To correct this error, implement the correction instructions contained
in this note or import the relevant Support Package.
In packages
o DI in Release 4.6C2
o DIMP in Release 4.71 and higher
o EA-APPL as of Release 4.7 Extension Set 2 and higher
notifications are created when installing and dismantling. In this case,
Customizing must be complete, otherwise errors will occur.
In DI Release 4.6C2 and DIMP Release 4.71 (and higher),
follow the following Customizing path:
Plant Maintenance and Customer Service
    -> Maintenance and Service Processing
      -> Maintenance and Service Notifications
        -> Determine Properties of Notifications for Installing and
Dismantling Parts
Always maintain the notification type for installation and for
dismantling.
Follow the following Customizing path on EA-APPL as of Release 4.7
Extension Set 2 (and higher):
follow the following Customizing path:
Plant Maintenance and Customer Service
    -> Maintenance and Service Processing
      -> Configuration Control
        - > Determine Properties of Notifications for Installing and
           Dismantling Parts.
Always maintain the notification type for installation and for
dismantling.
What must you do if you do not want to use notifications in IE4N?
1. You must always maintain the notification type in accordance with
    Customizing described above.
2. Create an individual, empty implementation for the BADI
    BADI_CCM_NOTIF_GENER. To do this, proceed as follows:
a) Execute transaction SE18.
b) Specify BADI_CCM_NOTIF_GENER as the BADI name.
c) Use the menu <Implementation><create> to create an individual
       implementation with a corresponding name in the Z namespace.
d) You enter the BADI Builder. Name the implementation, and then
       save and activate your implementation. It is important that the
       methods CREATE, FILL_CUST_DATA, MODIFY, SET_HEADER_MESSAGE, and
       PRINT_NOTIF are empty.
Note that these steps are required, since the BADI
    BADI_CCM_NOTIF_GENER is equipped with a default source code that
    includes the use of the notification.
As of ECC600, Note 1368876 replaces error message IEN 126 with error
message IEN 026, which is more precise.
Caution:
o The error message mentioned above indicates that Customizing is
         missing. To correct the problem, you must perform the relevant
         Customizing settings for transaction IE4N.
o As of ECC600, you do not have to activate the DIMP switch (this
         may not be useful).
o For more information, see Note 1368876.
I hope, it helps.
Best regards,
Roland

Mac Messages Audio/Video tab missing

Hi,
On my Mac Pro, in the Mac Messages app (ver. 8.0) preference pane, I am missing the tab for Audio/Video. Because of this, I'm unable to select my external audio device (a Focusrite Saffire Pro 40), and therefore hear no sound from video messages sent to me.
Does anyone know of a way to restore the Messages preference pane, or do I need to do a complete OS X restore?
I did try deleting the com.apple.iChat.plist file and restarting the app, which did not work. Here's a screenshot showing the missing tab.
Thanks.

Hi,
If you use the iMessages account and then use the Details option top right of the Chat/Interface window of Messages it will invoke the FaceTime App.
Video and Audio chats done this way don't use the apps own Video/Audio Ability.
It is the same with Screen Sharing. With Accounts that have buddy lists it uses the Apps Own abilities.
The iMessages account Invokes the Screen Sharing App and has to have System Preferences > Sharing > Screen Sharing set to allow this.
Back in iChat you could have issues with external devices that were used for Sound input.
If they were MIDI based you can open the MIDI Setup app in Applications/Utilities.
iChat used to accept 41000 and 48000 data rates for sound.
There have been issues with some external devices on which order they get set up between System Preferences > Sound > Input and the choices in Messages itself.
Recently I have seen a similar post about doing the same in Messages where an head set/mic combo unit needs the Input set in Messages before the Output.
As far as playing other sources If Quicktime can play it then Messages should also "share it". Or at least that was my experience until they did away with iChat Theatre.

Can't open audio/video settings, losing audio also

Hi folks
Get a general error (34) when I go to access audio video settings. I tried trashing prefs per the advice in another thread, but still get the error.
When editing, audio seems to be working fine as long as I don't send it out to my monitor. Then the audio drops out completely. Audio and video playback is set to firewire ntsc, and audio follows video. On audio, the rest of the options are grayed out, so I was trying to get into the av settings to see what's going on.
The setup has been working fine before but I don't recall if I changed any settings. Also it's FCP HD 4.5. Thanks

I selected 'none' for video playback and it let me into the av settings. The only option not grayed was 'built in audio," so I selected that. Then back in my sequence, I chose video playback 'firewire ntsc." It then let me select audio settings and I chose built in audio." Then it worked.
Hope this helps someone with the same issue in the future.

A/V settings - missing video playback settings

I am a new FCP user (5 months) but have not been having too much trouble. I have been on Avid for 5 years plus; Thursday I imported some Avid NTSC 720/480 footage into Final Cut (29.97 fps of course) - which displays successfully. But now I cannot return to the settings I need to edit material in HDV 23.98 fps projects. The video playback settings for HDV 24p 60i are now all missing/deselected. What is more, the program is crashing a lot. No sound, no video playback. Clearly we need to make different projects in different admin users for Avid product - but how do we get our settings back? Help!

There is no such thing as HDV 24p60i... it's one or the other. In fact, you should be able to import or capture that material, place a clip in any sequence, and FCP will ask you if you'd like to set the sequence's settings to match the clip's properties, and you simply say yes.
Where are you having the problem? Which camera was used? There is an "easy setup" for HDV cameras, but they are different a bit from camera to camera... Sony is different than Canon for example... might try those too.
Try trashing your preferences for FCP found in User/library/preferences/fcp user data folder. There are three red and white icon'd files there. Just trash them, and they will rebuild to factory settings when you relaunch FCP.

Audio/Video settings

Requesting help on settings in FCP 7. I am bringing in footage from a Sony Z5u in 1080i, from a cf card with a fire wire reader. I plan to burn my edited project to DVDSD after sending to compressor. What should my settings be in Audio/Video settings tab in FCP for best results? No luck burning a presentable DVD so I'm starting from scratch trying to figure out what could be wrong. Any help appreciated. Thanks, John

It's not the same, the issue is you're in NTSC. Standard def in NTSC is 29.97 fps.
the "look" of the footage is different. there are no pulldown frames in 30 F.
in 24F DV the pulldown is 2:3:2:3 to make up the frames required to run at 29.97 fps
There are HD formats in NTSC which support 23.98 fps just no SD formats
there are settings in FCP that will allow you to edit in 23.98fps Standard def but when it goes to tape a pulldown is inserted to bring the frame rate to 29.97
The reason to offline edit in 23.98 DV is a saving in disk space and lower CPU demand than editing the full resolution of 4K, HD etc.
The reason to edit in DV and stay there ie file based for compressions etc is you have progressive frames throughout the piece and that can look better on progressive scan monitors like a computer.

Easy Setup and Audio Video Settings (FCP7)

Hello,
I am a newbie editor in fcp 7. in fact, I´m newbie on pos production. I´ve been working and editing less than a year (Premiere Pro)
Now I am using FCP7 (and FCPX) but my question is...in fcp7, why do I need Audio/Video Settings and Easy Setup if
final cut has open format sequences?
thx

Well, strictly speaking on FCP 7 and earlier (since this particular forum is for older FCP...not FCX)...yes, you do. You need to choose the Easy Setup that matches the footage you are using. If you have multiple formats, try to convert the footage to a single format. Don't belive this Apple marketting about "open format sequences."
There are some exceptions...like you can have ProRes footage, and a ProRes sequence...and also edit in HDV or XDCAM footage in that. IN fact, it's best to edit HDV and XDCAM as ProRes. Don't have an XDCAM sequence setting and edit ProRes into that...XDCAM is inferior to ProRes.
Also...don't edit may formats natively. Meaning H.264, MP4, AVCHD...there are many formats that FCP just doesn't work with properly. FCX will even ask to "optimize" the media...meaning convert to ProRes. FCP 7 is a different beast than Adobe Premiere Pro. PPro will allow you to edit formats natively...it's designed to do that. FCP 7 is not....and that's a pretty important difference to know. FCP 7 wants media to be in FCP editing codecs before you start...such as ProRes.

Video Drive:Audio Render Files is missing

"video drive:audio render files is missing. I don't know how to rectify this issue.
Any suggestions?

Hi David,

Final cut pro audio/video settings

Hello everyone:

Can anyone help me please
thanks

This is the quick and dirty way of doing it. Read the manuals (FCP, Compressor, DVD Studio Pro) for more information.
Control-click on the sequence name in your Browser in FCP, and select Export > Using Compressor. The sequence name will then show up in Compressor. Select the sequence name that just showed up, and then on the top of the screen select one of the DVD:xxxxxx settings for your project. I would recommend the Best Quality options. You will see 90, 120, 150 minute options. Pick the lowest that you can without it being shorter than your sequence. For example, if your sequence is 92 min, select the 120 min option. You will need an MPEG setting as well as the Dolby setting. Once you have selected your presets, set their destination - use Desktop for now. When you have selected the Settings and Destination for the sequence, Click "Submit" on the lower right of the screen. Batch Monitor will pop up, telling you the progress. When the job has completed, open up DVD Studio Pro.
Once DVDSP loads, you will see on the left side of the screen two large icons in the Graphical tab window. Select each one, control-click on it, and select Delete. Now click File > Import > Asset and choose each one of the files you encoded to your desktop. You should have an MPEG and a Dolby file. They will then show up in the lower left of your screen in the Assets tab once you have imported them. Select both at the same time, then simply drag them to the open space in the Graphical tab. It will create an icon like the ones you deleted. Control-click on the new icon, and select First Play. Put in a blank DVD, and then go to File > Burn. Once this is done burning you will end up with a DVD that you just put in your player and it will automatically play.
Like I said, this is quick and dirty. Read the manuals, play with different settings, and get comfortable with each application.
