DVC Pro Tape and DV tape not good in Final Cut Pro 5?

I have a DVCPro tape along with a deck as well as a DV tape along with a deck for that.
I started final cut pro and used the NTSC easy setup. I first captured the DVC Pro, when it was done i tried to play it in the viewer and it would play for less then a second then stop. However when i brought it down to the timeline it played fine in the canvas.
So i when ahead a captured the DV tapes onto the same project. When it was completed i tried to play it back using my DV hardware to my TV but i would only see picture and no audio. ALl my settings were correct and the audio would only play on Mbox or the internal speaker in a G5. I thought i had a bad connection but the DVC Pro tape worked fine with audio. So i figured i go back to the DVC File i captured and when i pulled it up in the viewer everything is green and no picture what so ever.
Can anyone please help

#8 External Monitor Viewing.
Shane's Stock Answer #8:
A simple path is mac > firewire > camera or deck > rca cables > tv
Then start up your camera and tv, then open fcp.
Then go View > External video > all frames
Video playback should be Apple firewire NTSC (If you are using an NTSC set)
Audio playback should be Audio follows Video
Techinially, this should send synched video to your TV
If for some reason you can't view your timeline on your external monitor, there are a few things to try:
1) Make sure that the camera/deck is connected and powered on BEFORE you open FCP.
2) In the Final Cut Pro menu select AUDIO/VIDEO Preferences and make sure your signal is being sent out thru Firewire DV.
3) Go to the menu and select VIEW>EXTERNAL>ALL FRAMES.
4) Click in the % box above the image and select FIT TO WINDOW.
5) Go to VIEW->refresh A/V devices
6) Make sure the Log & Capture window is closed
If you want it to play in both the canvas and the external monitor you need to go to the FINAL CUT PRO menu and select AUDIO/VIDIO settings and make sure MIRROR ON DESKTOP is selected under the PLAYBACK OUTPUT section

Following Media Files Are Not Optimized For Final Cut Pro

I'm sure you've seen this before and I've tried to search for a thread on it here and fell asleep, so sorry if this is a repeat.
I have edited projects in Premiere Pro (on my PC) and I have tried to transfer them in FCP. It worked with the exception of two things:
1. the error message, "Following Media Files Are Not Optimized For Final Cut Pro"
2. the quality *****! watching it on the playback in FCP it looks great, but then when I burn it to Disc it's pixelated in spots and generally has a lower quality picture.
I know that it's Standard Def. and can't expect the best, but I've done it before (once or twice) and it didn't seem this bad.
Can someone suggest anything to help the quality? Should I run my AVIs through MPEG Steamclip to make it a QT file and if so what is the best format in that since there are many to choose from and most I'm not familiar with?
Thank you,
Crayton

I did compress them to DV NTSC then burned it to DVD and the result was no bueno.
I thought what I would do is try compressing them again before I send them on over to DVDSPRO. Here is a simplified break down of the situation:
- I have edited the raw footage in Premiere Pro on my PC. They were recorded and captured as SD.
- I rendered them in Premiere, then transfered the rendered AVI file to FCP.
- When went to place the files in FCP, I received the warning message; "Following Media Files Are Not Optimized For Final Cut Pro" but I went forward anyways and it allowed me to do so.
- Originally I went ahead and compressed them from FCP to QT Movie as a DV NTSC, which ended up poorly.
- Therefore my question is, should I compress them using another file type (other then DV NTSC)? Which leads me to another program that I have called MPEG Streamclip, which offers tons of file types of which I am unfamiliar with most. I want the best quality of course but don't know what file type is the highest going from AVI to a format that can be accepted by FCP and ultimately DVDSPRO. Keeping in mind that I only have FCP5 and do not have Prores.
Did that make sense?
Thank you again,
Crayton

Canon EOS Movie Plugin-E1 not recognized in Final Cut Pro 10.0.7

Canon EOS Movie Plugin-E1 not recognized in Final Cut Pro 10.0.7
I just installed the new version of final cut pro 10 and the canon plugin-E1 version 1.4 for the canon 5D mk III but after starting final cut pro I can not find the Log and transfer button., with the result I cannot import my files.
Is there a solution for this problem.

There is no L&T function in FCPX.
The import media dialogue window does what you want.
OS versions later than 10.6 should be fine importing Canon DSLRs.

Update not available for Final Cut Pro X

My dad installed Final Cut Pro for me in 2010-2009, and we later updated it to Final Cut Pro X in 2012. I'm 16 now, and I use the app a lot to splice and add effects for visual media and such.
My dad downloaded Yosemite recently, and now it wont let me use FCPX anymore. I have version 10.0.6, which is apparently too old to run on the system anymore!
I thought I'd just go update it, but there was no update available on the Mac App Store. I searched the app store for FCPX, and found it available for its regular price, even though the app is already installed. I wanted to do the re-download trick a lot of people are talking about, but it wont show up in my purchases section either. I check my father's account for the purchase as well, and it was still missing.
I dont feel like we got FCPX off the app store originally. My dad claims he may have downloaded a bootleg originally, but I dont think that makes sense if we were able to update it before to X, and the loading screen states that the application was licensed to my father.
Any ideas?

I've tried logging into both accounts, and the content is not there. I may ask if theres possibly another account to check though.

ATY radeon x1900 not compatible with Final Cut Pro X ???

It looks like my ATY radeon x1900 Graphics card is not compatible with Final Cut Pro X and the new motion and compressor?
I have a Macpro 2 x 3Ghz quad core Intel Xeon with 16gb RAM
Any suggestion to which card I should Purchase?

There are several threads here and abroad that mention the installer will notice and approve the ATI 5770 in older mac pros.
I just now bought a 5770 from Apple's online store for my 2007 Mac Pro 2,1 so I'd have the compatibility if I ever decided to upgrade -- assuming at some point they'll run out of stock and not make any more.
Keep in mind the 5770 has 1 dual link DVI and 2 mini display ports so you might need to pick up necessary adapters depending on your monitors.
Hopefully FCPX will be usable in the near future and an upgrade will be pragmatic.
(I sure hope they don't pull this stunt with the next Logic upgrade.)
I may have a 1900XT for sale soon.

If I own a Macbook pro and an iMac can I have final cut pro downloaded to both with one purchase?

If you purchase Final Cut Pro X at the Mac App Store, you can install it in all your Macs free of charge as many times as you want. The same applies for all the applications you purchase at the Mac App Store

IIs there an export function from Lightroom? Did you export? Does the exported file contain your edit?
THe hard drive file size doesn't matter. What matters is the image size, it's dimensions in pixels.
IN FCP press Cmd-J to see the project properties.

In the past when I have imported my dslr video/audio files and then my zoom audio files Final Cut Pro has organized them in pairs in my library. For some reason my video/audio and my audio are being organized seperately. How do I fix this? Thanks!

Thank you Russ! Seems as though the timestamp on my audio files was completely incorrect so it placed the files far away from the corresponding video. I've modified the timestamp information and this has helped. The hour/minute information is incorrect but at least now I'm in the ballpark. Thank you!

Dose Premiere Pro 7 have an image wireframe setting like Final Cut Pro.

Yes, click on your video clip, then go to Effects Control. The box you see to the left of the word Motion activates the wireframes.

Software Updates Missing and File Not opening in Final Cut Pro

Hi Experts,
I am having trouble with Final Cut Pro. Here goes:-
I tried to load up a FCP file called "Overview" in Lesson One of the Apple Pro Training Series book called "Color". The file would not open and I got the following message alert in FCP:
"File's format is too new for this version of the application".
I am running FCP 6.0.1 and so went to check for software updates. I could not find any listed for FCP. I did a quick internet search to make sure and found there were indeed updates to 6.0.1.
So I guess I have 2 problems:
1. Why won't a file from a book that was published before I bought FCP work on my app?
2. Why can't I see updates for FCP in the Software Update application?
I am mega stuck with this. I have read of similar problems to mine on the internet but have found no solution. I hope that you will be able to help me out.
Thank you all,
Bob

Hi Nick!
Thanks for your reply. I feel kinda silly now but I have been continuously checking Software Update for 24hrs and I just got a new addition to the list which was called "Pro Applications Update 2008-05".
Seeing something new, I installed it and it upgraded my Final Cut Applications including FCP to version 6.0.5.
The file then opened.
I am truly sorry to have taken your time up. As when I posted last time Nick, you were very prompt and helpful.
All the best,
This problem is solved for me and I hope all the other people having this problem find this update as luckily as I just did.

Ilife Sound Effects and Final Cut Pro Sounds are not appearing in Final Cut Pro X anymore!?

Hello,
I am new to the app Final Cut Pro X. And recently when I have gone into the Music and Sound Folder in final cut pro the option for Ilife Sound Effects and FCPX Sound Effects do not appear. I have read other forums and they have said to drag the sound files into FCPX but that isn't even a option. It onlt has iTunes options, please reply back someone this is stressing me out. I don't know if it is because of Mavericks or whatever but it is driving me insane and I need help!
This is what it looks like .

This is a known issue in FCP X 10.1 and you will find many posts about it in the forum just do a search. Several solutions have worked for different users. Try the following:
1. Open and close GarageBand then relaunch FCP
2. Open and close iPhoto then relaunch FCP
3. Close and reopen FCP
4. Trash FCP preferences then relaunch FCP
Any one of these may work. Just try them in any order. Be aware the problem may recur.

I just bought a 15" macbook pro and when I try to upload final cut pro it tells me that the power pc does not support the application any longer.. is there a solution to this problem, other to buy the program again?

I tried to upload final cut pro on my new computer but it says that it no longer supports the application is there anything I can do to make it work?

I assume the MBP is new and you have Lion on it (10.7)?
Here is what will run:

MPEG2 codec not working in Final Cut Pro on Mac OSX Tiger

We have been using the File-export-Quicktime Conversion-MPEG2 codec for exporting of files from Final Cut Pro to DVD Studio Pro. On the new mac system that was just bought, the option does not show up.
Currently the system is running Quicktime Pro 7.1.2/ FCP 5 and DVD Studio Pro 4 and it is a new mac system running Mac OSX Tiger.
This problem has happened before on a mac running on an older system, but that was solved by reinstalling FCP and then DVD Studio pro and making sure that the QT Pro was of the latest version.
Right now, we have reinstalled everything the same way, tried installing DVD Studio Pro after, we have also done a full software update of the software over the net.
The codec is still not working, all the macs in the office are supposed to be upgraded to Mac osx tiger, but right now we can't do so, cos then we wouldn't be able to burn any DVDs.
Please help, thanks.

The installation of QT 7 is the culprit behind the missing MPEG-2 Export Component. But during upgrades, it doesn't always get rid of the file ... probably what happened on your older system when you upgraded to QT 7 or Tiger. Either the new system came with QT 7 preinstalled, therefore not including the Export Component, or if it was upgraded, the upgrade missed it.
