Capturing 24p, and have to render every clip.

Hi all. Thanks for your time. After reading all the 24p articles in here, I thought I had it straight: I shot 24p normal (16:9) on an xl2, and captured it on FCP 4.5 using the "DV NTSC 48 kHz Anamorphic" setting for Capture as well as for the Sequence Preset. However, I still have to render (red line) ever time I bring a clip into the timeline! What am I doing wrong?? Please someone help, and thank you for your time.

You shooting in PAL land? You have a PAL camera????
Stating the obvious, but thought I'd get that out of the way...
Do us a favor... find the item properties window for the CAPTURED clips and read it down for us.
Then... Apple-Zero the sequence you've created and read down THOSE settings.
Thanks,
CaptM

Must render every clip ????

Hi All,
I shot a project using the XL2 in 24p /16:9 in FCP I'm using the 24p preset but everytime iI bring a clip in the timeline it must be render. Can you guys tell what I'm doing wrong or is it normal for this to happen. If there is a work around please post it. I have a music video to complete but having to render every clip in the timeline is going to take forever.
Thanks.

#28 Having to render every clip in the timeling
Shane's Stock Answer #28: When I put a clip in the timline, I have to render it before it will play. Why?
Your clip settings MUST match your timeline settings. If you have DV/NTSC material, you need a DV/NTSC timeline. The frame rate, audio rate and dimensions (4:3, 16:9) all need to match exactly.
The most important thing you need to do is properly set up your project from the start. It is always advisable to use the Easy Setups. Here is an in-depth article on the topic:

Do i have to render every time??

i have a simple piece of text in my browser (named the default name "text") that i use over and over in lots of sequences. i stuck a drop shadow in and now i have to render every time? is that right? i didn't have to render before; is there a way to just render the one time?
thanks!

Create your title, put it in and empty timeline, but do NOT render it.
File>Export>QuickTime Conversion.
Set the format type to QuickTime. Click on Options and set the codec to Animation. Set Colors to Millions+. Export.
When you bring this back into your project and put it over video in the timeline, it will still have to be rendered to composite over video, so I'm not sure it will gain you anything.

I am having flickering issues on both my timeline and when i render a clip when i drop and adjust a three way color corrector on a clip

Why do I have to render every video clip?

Every clip I put in FCE has to be rendered, why? Is there a setting I have to change? I have a canon hv-20 and I'm using the 1080i setting in the easy setup menu. Thanks for any help!

If they are identical then I can't help you. There is no reason why you would have to render. Which is that you have to render, video or audio or both? The render line is divided is divided into two thin stripes, upper for video, lower for audio.

Have to render every time I add text

Hello,
I'm subtitling a large project using FCP7 and every time I add text I have to render it the text.
This is slowing down my workflow. How can I eliminate the rendering?

What codec does your source footage use?
The source footage was VOB that was exported to Quicktime using ProRes 422 LT
What codec is used in your Sequence setting?
In sequence settings the compressor is set also to Apple ProRes 422 LT
What are the RT settings?
Render Control Settings: Filters & Flame Blending Selected. Frame Rate and Resolution 100% Coded same as Sequence Codec. Quality Normal. Always use best quality is deselected.
What are you using to create the text?
Just the FCP Text Generator.
If you are using external titling software, what color space and format are the files saved in?
Nope.
Where is the source footage located on your computer?
On an external drive, and the project file is on my internal hard drive.
What Mac model are you using, which version of Mac OS X, what CPU and how much RAM?
iMac from 2006, 10.5.8 2GHz Intel Core Duo 2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM

MOV and AVI Files - Rendering Every Clip In The Timeline

This is just a quick query really. When I try and add certain .mov and .avi footage into final cut express 3.5, the timeline requires the clips to be rendered fully. It also requires a render every time you move the clip or add a transition etc.
If for example I wanted to make a fan film using footage from another source, how would I go about this - it seems very time consuming considering every single shot needs to be fully rendered every time I move it / edit it.

FCE is a resolution specific editing application. It edits DV or HD using the Apple Intermediate Codec. Anything else needs to be converted to one of these formats. It's usually best to convert your media to the correct format before bringing it into FCE.

Do I have to render every sequence?

So here's the situation, and I am trying to obtain as close to HD as I can.
I import my ACVHD footage from my sony cameras into FCE. I then place these into my timeline which I name Sequence 1. I move them around and edit how I'd like. Then I create a new sequence which I call Sequence 2. I drag Sequence 1 down into my Sequence 2 time line so I have a nice clean work space on one track. I then add a few graphics here and there. For purpose of this question, I know my graphics should have been the correct sizes but they are what they are. Sequence now is entirely red barred for me to render, but I don't. I then create another new sequence which I will call Sequence 3. When I drage Sequence 2 from my browser into Sequence 3, that too is red barred. But I add some more graphics into Sequence 3. Now I render Sequence 3 so all is good. So I want to export Sequence 3 into a quicktime movie. Since Sequence 3 is fully rendered, do I need to have Sequence 2 rendered to obtain maximum quality? Or since Sequence 3 is comprised of Sequence 2 as long as I export Sequence 3 everythign is all good? Or do I need to render each sequence as I build the project?

If the underlying media (sequences and/or clips) need to be rendered but aren't, FCE will have to render them during export. Not the ideal time to be rendering, as it will at a minimum increase your export time. Plus if you export unrendered material to a QT reference file, the rendered material will be put in the reference file itself. Not what a reference file is intended for.
You should investigate why your second sequence needs to be rendered if the material in sequence 1 did not need to be rendered. Does sequence 2 have a different sequence setting (easy setup)? Did you apply filters to the items in sequence 2? You mentioned adding graphics - if they are non-standard size and you allowed FCE to autoconform the sequence (#2) when you inserted the graphics clips, that could be the cause of the need to render everything.
With FCE, it is best to have all media clips be the same codec (DV or AIC) and frame size - it minimizes problems. Also render as you go along, not at export time.

Hi Turn Router off for 30 seconds Goto Settings Reset Network Settings After reset you need to enter your router wireless key. Also later check on website for a Firmware update for your router. Cheers Brian

I have to render every time i move a clip!

i am a musician and im trying to use fcp to edit my videos to match my final product with my mp3 final project audio from garage band. i recorded in photobooth and recorded at the same time as garage band using my condenser mic for better audio. i changed my files to pro res 422, but every time i move any clip some portion needs to be re rendered, ive set the sequence to pro res 422 but i still cant figure out whats going on. i have a drum, piano, vocal, guitar videos that all match to the audio but i cant really do much when it takes 14 minutes to render a 3 minute clip.
this is what it looks like.

Your problem stems from the video recording software you used. The clips in your browser are all showing as frame rates ranging from 9fps to 11fps. But your sequence is 29.97. FCP is trying to stretch those video files out to match the sequence frame rate, but it requires rendering to do so.
Some video capture programs produce videos that are in some way incompatible with FCP because FCP reads the fps wrong. Snapz Pro is one, there are probably others. If you actually recorded the files in 29.97, then you need to run them through compressor to make them FCP compatible. Choose a pro res preset, but make sure that in the video settings that 29.97 is selected (and not "current").

Do you really have to render every single HDV clip?

Don't remember reading that anywhere...
Starting a new project that someone handed over to me with projects and media all ready to go.
I open up the timelines and eveery clip needs to be rendered in the timeline and the source media plays back all clunky in the viewer.
Am I doing something wrong or is this just HDV editing?
As always, thanks in advance....

This project was a freaking nightmare. I thought it would take three weeks, it took thre months.
He capture the footage wrong somehow, I ddon't know, but no matter what settings I changed I couldn't avoid the rendering.
Tp top it all off, he captured the audio directly into Pro Tools so it was 1988 all over agin, synching up the audio files with the video.
I am giving the director the final dvd next week after I finish the menu. The editing is all done THANK GOODNESS!!

Shot 24p and have no access to 24p camera

can I capture with a camera that doesn't shoot 24p?

There's really no reason to remove pulldown if you're project is less than 1.5 hours when finished, and you have no plans to print it to film... the look would be exactly the same on a DVD or video tape in the end.
If you need to remove the pulldown, you'll need to do it in cinema tools if you didn't shoot 24pa... if you shot 24pa, then you can remove it during the capture. But again, it will not look better in any way than if you just capture it as it was shot, which is 29.97fps DV. (with a pulldown that puts the 24 frames in there by adding redundant fields, and spreading it over 30 fps basically)

How do I add web app tags to web app fields and have them render correctly?

- I have a webapp field entitled "Status".
- I have a webapp fields entitles "Status-Listed".
- I want to have a tag in the description field that is {tag_Status-{tag_Status}} to where if the Status field is set to Listed the result will be {tag_Status-Listed} and will return the value in the Status-Listed field.
- It works, and returns the value:
<h2>Listed</h2>{tag_county} County<br />{tag_firstname} {tag_lastname} | {tag_address1}, {tag_address2} {tag_city}, {tag_state} | {tag_zipcode} | {tag_phone}<br />{tag_status} | <em>
- However, this will display as the text entered when the tag is rendered from Design view. If I place the code in the HTML view it will render each tag correctly. What I am seeking to do is apply four different types of stylings to the listing, as in Listed, Not Listed, Rejected, No Answer, etc. That way in my directory I can have the status determine the type of look each listing has based upon the Status field.
Any thoughts from the community?

I am not sure I follow what you are explaining, but, I will try to give you an idea. Wrap all of your HTML in a div with a class of {tag_Status-{tag_Status}}. you can then style as necessary. However, if this involves hiding certain elements, then I would suggest using a custom template for each type of listing.

Having to render every clip: follow up

Hi,
I read the thread below, but I have additional questions.
I've imported video captured from a VCR in eyeTV. The size is 640 x 480.
In the sequence I've created, I notice that the size is 720 x 480.
Is this the genesis of my rendering problem?
Is there a way to edit the sequence so that it matches the video resolution?
Thanks very much for your help.
DJ

Yes to the first question, no to the second. You have to convert the media to the correct video format, codec and frame rate.

I have a MacAir with iMovie 10.0 and have lost several Facetime Clips that were imported through iMovie. Can anyone help me find them?

I have been recording through import > Facetime days of painting a seascape. I have been recording then working with short clips (5-30 minutes) that I then fast forward 200x... This is a big project with hours of video that have been condensed into about 5 minutes. When I went to review the playback, I discovered a missing few days worth of video clips in the middle of the project. the only thing that I did was show the project (just as a playback) to a friend (which I had done before but I had already drug down all the imported clips). I have searched the boards and not found a similar situation. Can anyone help me find them or are they lost forever?

OK.... I just lost another several hours worth of clips. iMovie "Quit unexpectedly". I believe this is when I lose my imported clips. Are they stored anywhere else?
