Can FCP do live video editing or pass through editing?

Anyone know of a way to edit FCP live? That is, whithout capturing to the hard drive?
I have a situation where I am trying to add lower thirds to a show that is on a tape and the final output is tape. The fastest way to edit this is to pay from one deck, pass the vide signal through FCP or LiveType and record onto another deck.
I'm pretty sure FCP cannot do this, but wanted to see if there is anyone who has rigged something up.
Thanks.

No way that I know of.
Almost makes you pine for the old Betacam A/B roll linear edit suite!
In fact, when I run into this issue I usually take it to a linear suite and add the titles on a dub. Of course it depends on wether you can get away with the generation loss.

>No, you are not right.
Going to question the biggest contributor to this forum? (Yes, my ego is talking). OK then...
>Install the QT-Plugin, restart your Mac and you will be able to import and use .mts files in FCP 7.
Sure...yes, that makes it POSSIBLE to read the files natively in FCP...if they come from a Panasonic camera. BUT...just try working with those files. Right away the system won't be nearly as responsive as it would if they were ProRes. First...there are no sequence settings for that format...so you'll have to use ProRes and have a green render bar. BUT, that's no big deal. The big deal is trying to work with the AVCHD format, which is VERY processor intensive...inside an application that doesn't like to work with much outside of the FCP editing codecs.
Is it possible? Sure? Will it work well...will you be as zippy and error free as if you converted to ProRes? Not by a long shot. OH, but don't just take my word for it. Go ahead...try it and see. No skin off my nose...no waste of my time. See how well this works.
I'm just here to relate real world working solutions to issues. And yes, I did try that plugin, and boy, was editing a pain.

Live Video editing using Augmented Reality

I saw Disney "i am in a band" video. I have a similar project in augmented reality based on enhancing retail experience.
I was having difficulty in finding action script code and if anyone of you can provide me with it for live video editing (specifically for placing different background in the back and front layer), i would be very thankfull.

The Apple people probably didn't understand that you wanted a live mix. FCP can't help you there.
MultiCam is an FCP feature "post-switching" multicamera recordings for that live-to-tape look. It is fairly complex, and especially with only two "cameras" you would be muchn better to start off editing them on the timeline.
As for a live switch you need a video switcher. Outside the realm of FCP, but http://bhphoptovideo.com is a great place to do research.
Then if you're really serious you can record both feeds plus optionally the live switched output for further manipulation in FCP or elsewhere.

i have made a few test with Flash Lite 3.0 and Flash Media Server 3 and I have to say that it is pretty easy to stream FLV Video files and Live Video from local web camera to mobile phone. Here are a quick instructions how to do it in Windows (I will publish Linux version later).
Play FLV-video from Flash Media Server 3:
Install Flash Media Server 3 (download developer version)
There are a few sample FLV files in applications/vod/media folder, so you can use one of them for testing
Create a new Flash Lite 3.0 file in Flash
Add a new Video symbol to library
Drag this Video symbol to Stage and give instance name to it: video
Type following programming to timeline:
// make a new video-object
var video:Video;
// make a new NetConnection-object
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
// check connection status from server
nc.onStatus = function(info:Object):Void {
status_txt.text=info.code;
if (info.code == "NetConnection.Connect.Success") {
startStreaming();
// start streaming video to phone
function startStreaming() {
ns = new NetStream(nc);
ns.setBufferTime(5);
video.attachVideo(ns);
// play sample.flv from server
ns.play("sample",0);
// show info to user
status_txt.text = "Connecting server...";
// connect FMS 3 video on demand service (default port 1935)
nc.connect("rtmp://your.server.ip.here:1935/vod");
Go to Publish Settings...
Set Local playback security: Access network only
Publish your SWF-file
Send your SWF-file to your phone
Test and you should see FLV-video playing in your phone
Play live video from Flash Media Server 3:
Install Flash Media Server 3 (download developer version)
Install Flash Media Encoder 2 (Windows only)
Start Flash Media Encoder 2
You should see your live camera in Input screen
Press Start-button to start sending live video to Flash Media Server 3
Create a new Flash Lite 3.0 file in Flash
Add Video symbol and programming as you did earlier
Modify your programming:
// in startStreaming()-function
// Flash Media Encoder 2 publish stream name is "livestream"
ns.play("livestream",-1,-1,true);
// start connection to Flash Media Server 3
// Flash Media Encoder 2 publishes Flash Media Server's default
// live publishing point, so connect it
nc.connect("rtmp://your.server.ip.here:1935/live");
Publish, test and enjoy

Using FCP for live video feed

Hi,
I'm currently shooting with the new HVX200 Panasonic camera. We're using a small, 7" hand-held HD monitor to use for focus-pulling, but I'd like to be able to use a computer monitor or laptop for a live video feed. (director's monitor)
We've considered using the component-out to go into a Component-VGA adapter for a computer monitor, but I'm wondering if we can do a direct feed using FireWire into FCP or something.
Anyone have any experience doing a computer-monitor setup for use with these kinds of cameras?
Thanks for the help!

hey there RI,
if you've tried something similar on your iMac & had no problems it's reasonable to think/believe it will work on your MBP, w/ this caveat: the 400 & 800 ports are actually on the same buss, so the 800 port will handle it's data at the lower(400) rate if there is a device on each port. shouldn't affect any editing w/ the drive once the cam is removed from the MBP. it should the run @ the higher rate.
good luck.

How can I stream Live video?

I'm working on a project where I take live video from an NTSC source. I'm looking for a simple program to import and allow me to take screen captures on the fly. I can edit it later. Can iMovie 09 do this...if so how?

This is an AVCHD camera. On import the AVCHD is converted to AIC. So bottom line is, no streaming from this camera.

Can't import live video from Sony PD 170.

Just got Final Cut Pro X. In a New Event I am able to import live video from the new MacBook Pro computer's built-in camera and pre-recorded video from my Sony PD-170 camera. However, when trying to import live video from the PD-170, the program only APPEARS to do so--the clips never show up once I close the import window. Any suggestions?

I think iMovie is corrupted. I would like to try to uninstall iLife 11 but when I put in the disc there is no uninstall option. I tried trashing iMovie from applications and reinstalled all of iLife (I believe wasted space on my HD) but the issue remains. (Maybe because I didn't delete the receipts?) iMovie can not see any devices or use iSight for capture...

How can I capture live video and still image by a DirectX compatible USB webcam using LabView ?

Dear forum members
   I'd like to design a user interface which shows a live video and capture still images for it by a DirectX compatible USB webcam using LabView or NI Vision Toolkit, how can I do this ? and If this is possible How can I reach the webcam DirectX filter properties and set them using LabView ? I would be grateful to anyone Who lead me to the correct solution.
    Sincerely
    Cem DEMiRKIR

Cem,
    With our example programs you can acquire and save an image (IMAQ >> File Input and Output >> Snap and Save to File.vi) from one camera, if you double the VI's to create the image and the image task, you can easily have one program acquire and save for two cameras.
    I may need more information on what you mean by calibration. Do you mean basic camera setup? That can be done in Measurement and Automation Explorer by setting up the options within the IMAQ settings for each camera. Or do you mean more complex calibration for special types of images? The more description of what you mean, the better I will be able to help you get it done. You mentioned zoom and motion parameters, what kind of motion? Our vision drivers only control triggering the camera to acquire, then analyzing, processing and displaying the resulting image.
    If you have more details on exactly what you want to do, that would be great. Let me know if you have more questions, thanks!

Can FCP show 3 videos simultaneously in a picture-in-backgroundPhoto arrangement?

That is, I have 3 x videos from 3 different cameras. I want to show all videos on the screen at the same time, in sync with each other.
Can FCP X do this?
(Have tried to do in iMovie but I don't think iMovie is up to this)

Yes.
Stack the 3 clips above each other in the timeline, select one and reduce its size.
Do the same with the others and reposition them on the screen.

Can I broadcast live video for 1000 users?

Hi:
Is possible, using Flash Media Server, broadcast live video
for 1000 users?,
how much bandwidth do I need?,
What system requeriment is need for this load (in linux)?,
What maximum video size and fps is possible to get?
regards,
Christian

You should have no problem serving a stream to 1000 users on
a single server (a dual xeon/2bg ram box ought to do it).
Your bandwidth requirements will depend on the bitrate of the
video stream. Multiply the stream bitrate by the number of users
(plus 1 for the publisher), and you'll get your bandwidth figure.
For example, if the video is published at 300kbps, you'll use
about 290mbps for your 1000 users.
For the video size, I wouldn't go much larger than 640x480.
The flashplayer doesn't use the video card to render video, and
redrawing the screen with a large video chews through lots of
processor cycles very quickly.

Can FCP read 3D videos ?

I am thinking of buying the Sony HDR-TD10 Full HD 3D Camcorder and having in mind to use the recorded clip with FCP to make the montage and export it. But I have no idea if FCP can handle 3D movies and how to read the exported file after montage ?
Does someone know the answer ?

Nesting is necessary in that particular workflow because FCP always defaults to the first frame of the image well source clip after you trim the head of the sequence clip. This causes a big problem if you don't nest or mux your left/right first because any edits you make to the front of the clip will cause a temporal disparity.
This is a unique problem with FCP. Motion or AE don't behave the same way and will respect edits as you make them and still maintain sync of the image well source. We are introducing external muxing tools at NAB that will help manage the clips better in FCP. In an ideal world we don't want to add external transcoding or muxing to an already complicated workflow but there are not many options.
Unfortunately no other angles besides the active multiclip angle are available to FxPlug plugins or multiclip would be the perfect way to sync 3D clips (left on angle 1, right on angle 2, etc) and simply apply the plugin on top. We mention these little issues to those on the FCP development team every time we see them so I'm crossing my fingers that solutions will be found in the future to make the whole workflow much simpler.
