Can I use Red Cam footage in FCE4

An actor friend of mine has shot a short film with a Red Cam and wants me to edit it.  I assume I'll have to convert it, but can I bring that footage into FCE4, and if so what codec should I use?  And how do I convert it, what program should be used.  When I'm finished editing what codec should I use to export it.  He wants to enter this film in some festivals so we want the quality to be as good as possible.  How will the finished exported quality compare to the original Red Cam footage?  I assume there will be a quality loss, but how much?  And are there any other issues I should be aware of?  Thanks very much--jqs 

I don't know whether it will work with some sort of workflow that substitutes AIC foor Pro Res or not. I referred  you to the FCP article so you would see there are a number of moving parts involved. Although I don't know of FCE users editing RED, that's not to say it can't be done. Try some work-arounds and see (and let us know). Alternatively If you know someone with FCP, possibly they would allow you to cut it on their system?
Good luck.

BTW, I don't think it's possible to unmark this question as solved. If you're not getting views because people assume it's closed, you could always post another question.

  • Importing RED camera footage into CS4

    I've downloaded a plug in for CS4 and all the other RED camera footage imported in fine (9 out of 10 files) expect for the last file. Here's a picture of the file names:
    When I try to import these files (either through file > import) or Media Browser I get the message that the file format is not supported. Does anybody have any idea of what I could do?
    Thanks!

    Robodog2,
    I finally got back to my office and was able to send JIm a screenshot of the issue as the file was too big to send (1GB).
    The file marked A010_C001_10172V_001.R3D is the one that should import into Premiere Cs4 but as you can tell from the screen shot above, it will not.
    Any help will be appreciated.

  • How can i use isight camera to broadcast to web with Mac OS 10.4?

    I am using an iBook G4 running OS 10.4 as a printer server.  I have to do this to be able to print on my HP DeskJet 882c printer from computers running OS 10.6 and above (although I have not been able to get it to work with 10.8).
    I can connect an iSight camera to the iBook via FireWire.  Can I set that up to broadcast a video feed to a web site so I can visually monitor the area near the laptop and printer?

    You could use compatible older versions of QuickTime professional extensions for your Mac OS X version.
    This professional quality software is very powerful, and it will certainly stream any video you need.  However, it is not simple to use, so be prepared to do some research and study to get it configured and working.
    To use your iBook with its OS X 10.4, you will need QuickTime Broadcaster 1.5.3 
    and Darwin Streaming Server (v5.5.5) (if you need streaming server functions.) 
    Although I have never used it, QuickTime Streaming Server 4.1.1 might be a useable substitute for Darwin.

  • How can I use USB camera with NI cRIO 9022, please see my strange problem.

    Hi,
            I would like to use a USB camera with NI cRIO 9022. I used the same USB camera with NI USB 6216 DAQ device and developed a VI(within a PROJECT and outside it). So, It is working fine with NI USB 6216 device when I use the Vision Assistant Express VI and gets detected in its Initialization Window.  Please see JPEG File 3 where I get NO ERROR.
            I am facing a problem when I want to use it with NI cRIO 9022. What exactly I am doing in this case is:
    1) Create a NEW PROJECT
    2) Add Targets and Devices(NI cRIO 9022)
    3) Use the Scan Interface mode
    4) Create a NEW VI under the cRIO 9022 device 
    5) Use a Timed Loop(Synchronized with Scan Engine) for continuous Data Acquisition and Sending from the Analog I/O modules.
    6) Use the Vision Assistant available through the NI Vision Acquisition 2010 Module(I get STUCK HERE! The Express VI opens the Initialization Window, but I don't see the USB camera like in JPEG File 3)
    I am facing difficulties with this HOST COMPUTER, cRIO implementation differences. On my host computer I have the software packages as shown in JPEG File 1, and on my cRIO 9022 as shown in JPEG File 2.
    Can someone guide me how to overcome this and get the USB camera detected when I am using NI cRIO 9022?
    NOTE: If this is a problem with software mismatches on HOST and NI cRIO 9022 device, please see JPEG Files 1 and 2 for available software and Host and cRIO 9022.
    Thanks.
    Amar.

    When you select My Computer, you are running the program on the PC.  In this case, the camera works because it is connected to the PC.  The scan engine doesn't work because it needs to run on the cRIO, not the PC.
    When you create the program on the cRIO, you can use the scan engine because the program is on the cRIO.  You can't use the camera because it is back on the PC, and can't be found on the cRIO.
    The project is a wonderful tool, but it may be making the programming seem too simple.  It may not be clear to you that by moving a program to a different location (PC or cRIO), it is running in an entirely different environment on a totally different machine, even though it is just a little further down in the project.  You can't easily access the hardware on one machine while running the program on the other.
    So the summary is:  The camera is attached to the PC.  The scan engine runs on the cRIO.  Never the twain shall meet.

  • HT4101 My iPad is tellin me I can not use the camera connector because it uses too much power..... ***

    My iPad is tellin me I can not use the camera connector because it uses too much power..... ***

    I'm having same problems.   If I connect my blackberry it says it uses too much power.  If I take sd card out of phone and connect that way I get the same message.    The leaflet with the connector says go to Apple.com/support/iPad to find list of compatible cameras..........  I'm still trawling the site to find any such list!    Just need to know if it will work with a blackberry .....  If not I've got to take it back.    Have been advised by a friend to cut my losses get my money back and use Bump to transfer my pics.    I don't own a traditional camera because my phone has a great one.  Really don't want to have to carry a camera about with me!   They don't make it easy do they!   

  • HT1338 I am taking online classes. Can I use the camera on my macbook pro on blackboard collaborate?

    I am taking online classes. We use Blackboard. We are going to use Blackboard Collaborate this week. Can I use the camera
    on my computer to view myself and the others in my class?  The camera is connected to FaceTime, so I was not sure how that
    worked.

    Blackboard Collaborate claims it is compatible with Safari 5.1 or later and Mountain Lion, or latest Firefox. When I went to their support page, it borked and said my operating system was not compatible. It also then checked and reported that I had Java Webstart 1.6 installed.
    Looks like a real pain of proprietary stuff. Probably wants to use Java to take over the camera.

  • I can't use the cam to talk with friends...

    My system version is OS 10.5
    My ichat version is 4.0
    I would like to ask why I can't use mt cam to chat?
    I have the Cam Icon. but i can't press it.
    Thanks for your replying..

    Hi,
    If you have a Jabber ID Buddy list such as a Googletalk ID as your Buddy list and your Buddies are on PCs you cannot Video or Audio chat to them.
    However check these settings first.
    In the Video menu (the one to the right of Buddies and may be listed as Audio) is Camera Enabled ticked ?
    Selecting it toggles the tick (and the Camera) On and Off
    In the View Menu it is the same for the Show Video Status.
    This makes the little green icon next your Buddy pic and some of your Buddies appear
    Same for the Audio option.
    Buddies without the green icons cannot Video chat.

  • Can I use the Camera Connection Kit to transfer files from my Mob/PS3/iPod?

    Can I use the Camera Connection Kit to transfer files from my mobile/iPod or Playstation 3 to iPad using a USB cable?
    I have an *iPod nano 16GB 5g* & my mobile is a *Samsung G800* and *Playstation 3 80GB*.
    _Thanks for reading_

    The CCK will find/ask to download (if iPad supported formate )picture and video files if the device is formated in FAT 16 or 32 and the supported files are placed in a "DCIM" folder in the root directory. I have transfered such files from SD card and USB drives. However, not USB drive work. I had an old 2GB (very large) and when i connected it it said it drew too much power.
    I also downloaded pictures and video files from a compact flash card and smart media card via a SanDisk USB card reader.
    AppleIpod60GB wrote:
    No. The CCK is only designed to allow you to import photos from a digital camera via USB or an SD card. You cannot import any data via this kit and no other files will work as it's designed for only the functionality it does. The kit looks for a folder with the label "DSC####### the same structure as most digital cameras, and will only function with JPG files.
