FCP 6 bug importing P2 media

After running into a problem where DVCProHD media recorded at 24pA was coming in at 29.97, i found this post on creative cow:
http://forums.creativecow.net/readpost/8/940441?
Seems there is a bug in FCP 6 that a lot of people are experiencing. Importing the media works correctly in FCP 5, so in the short term that is what I will have use to acquire the media.
Can we expect a bug fix soon??? This is really a pain to work around!

Sorry, been away all weekend.
I have never tried this. I tried the database and didn't like the way it handled things (wither that, or I was just too lazy to learn it well.) but I think that you can export QT files out of the database can't you?
Also, and I know that this doesn't help this time but, this is a great example of why I always copy the entire contents of the card to a backup drive before I do anything else. I know that it takes time but I haven't lost any footage yet either.
Hopefully someone will stop by that knows database better.
ooooooooo, what version of QT are you running? The database only works correctly up to 7.2.6. If you have upgraded past that I think that you are asking for trouble.

Export sequence for import as media source?

Im shooting hour long HDV tapes and need to work with them in FCP as hour long, uninterrupted media files. Unfortunately, there are timecode breaks and things like that that break the media apart upon import. I've reassembled the hour long footage in a sequence and would now like to export that sequence so that it is a full quality, hour long media source I can then reimport. I need the new media file to be the identical quality of the original footage and original import. How can I do this? Thank you.

Go to File->Export->QuickTime Movie. When the export window opens, click the 'Make Movie Self Contained' button. Do NOT recompress all frames. Your exported clip will be the exact same quality as your Sequence in FCP.

Import javax.media.* is not working

Hi,
I'm new to java and i was trying to create a media player using the javax.media package from the JMF. I installed it using the windows setup and it seemed to install correctly. Testing it with the java.sun.com applet tester worked. The media player is also working...
The only problem is that when i import javax.medis.* it gives me a compiler error:
package javax.media does not exist
my code is as follows:
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.net.*;
import javax.media.*;
public class PlayerApplet extends Applet {
     Player player = null;
public void init() {
     setLayout( new BorderLayout() );
     String mediaFile = getParameter( "FILE" );
     try{
          URL mediaURL = new URL( getDocumentBase(), mediaFile );
          player = Manager.createRealizedPlayer( mediaURL );
          if (player.getVisualComponent() != null)
          add("Center", player.getVisualComponent());
          if (player.getControlPanelComponent() != null)
          add("South", player.getControlPanelComponent());
     catch (Exception e){
          System.err.println( "Got exception " + e );
public void start() {
     player.start();
public void stop() {
     player.stop();
     player.deallocate();
public void destroy() {
     player.close();
} Could someone please help me out here... i've tried all the few probable solutions... but to no avail...

Well changing the classpath to the correct one still didn't work.... but i still found the solution.
The Developer Environment that i use is JCreator and it seems it ignores the classpath and has its own settings for the class path... changing this also didn't work.
What worked was copying the Jar files from the JMF2.1.1e installed location into the path of the original classpath

Recovery from imported tape media fails and causes DPM management console to crash with ID: 917

Hi.
I have a newly installed DPM 2012 R2 on a Windows 2012 R2 with a standalone dedicated SQL server which is causing me a bit of a headache right now.
I'm about to restore some files from an imported tape media, the tape is from our previous DPM server (DPM 2010). I have identified the media and cataloged it and i'm able to browse it to choose wich files to restore. But as soon as i try to
finish up a restore job it causes the console to crash.
My server is running just fine with backups and restores from i.e tapes that is backed up by this server - no problem there - but imported is not working.
Below is the message from console when it crashes.
Connection to the DPM service has been lost.
Review the application event log for information about a possible service shutdown. Verify that the following services are not disabled:
            DPM
            DPM Replication Agent
            SQLAgent$MSSQLSERVER
            MSSQL$MSSQLSERVER
            Virtual Disk Service
            Volume Shadow Copy
ID: 917
Any ideas?

I'm guessing if you checked your event viewer, you would have the same error after the crash. I'm hoping Microsoft has a fix for this besides restoring the database...

(HELP!)How can I import Windows Media Player Playlists, into iTunes Playlists, with Music . . for an iPod

How can I import Windows Media Player Playlists, into iTunes Playlists, with Music . . for an iPod
We are having no luck with the thousands of songs we have to manualy add to a particular playlist in iTunes alone. .. there must be a simpler way! How can this be done . . . if there is and it's complicated, is the Genius allowed to help us out with this? They seem to only master Mac's only. . or can they help us? PL E A SE E E HELLPPP!

tt2,
Your very helpful and knowledgeable. I for one appreciate all the hardwork and help you have been giving the people on theses lists, especially with the problems associated with the "importing playlists" from windows media. Unfortunately I need more help if you or someone else can provide it. I followed all the steps you have instructed so far in the threads I have seen. Unfortunately nothing so far works for me. Maybe you or someone can help me, I'd really appreciate it. I tried the notepad++ method and when I click on save I always get a notepad file that my iTunes can't do anything with. I click the "convert to UTF-8 without BOM" then click save as and it still saves as a notepad file. I am also unable to find the \n\ file path to replace with my \C:\ filepath. Here is a copy of the first part of one of my playlists:
<?wpl version="1.0"?>
<smil>
    <head>
        <meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Windows Media Player -- 12.0.7601.17514"/>

Now I went and switched the part from <media src="..\ to <media src="C:\ in all the files in hopes that was where I am supposed to have my drive letter but it didn't seem to help. Please forgive my encoding ignorance if that's what my problem is. I hope you can help. Thanks in advance.

Android and import flash.media.Microphone not working?

Is "import flash.media.Microphone" working on Android devices ?
I am trying to call "Alert.show(Microphone.names.length.toString())" but it does not showing anything up on Android device (and even mic.rate = 11 throws an error as: mic=Microphone.getMicrophone(-1))
Any clues why it is not working (PC display on various browser including chrome is fine)
Testing desktop (WIN 10,1,82,76) and Android (10.1.92.8)

so after a while checking it gives me
I've got:
mic = Microphone.getMicrophone(-1);
and this: mic.rate = 11;
gives me error 1009 (property of null object)
then question is: Does Adobe Flash Player 10.1 (10.1.92.8) on Android supports Microphone class?
Apparently not as getMicrophone(-1) returns null object (but hey, I am pretty sure my mobile phone's got two of them) ...
anyone can confirm that?

Importing windows media video

I can't import windows media video file into itunes. Can somebody help?

iTunes cannot import Windows Media Video. You'll have to use some other software to convert your WMV into a format iTunes can accept. Try Videora iPod Converter, which many people seem to have success with.

try compiling like this:
java -cp "." myTest
This is not compiling, here you execute the already
compiled myTest.java file (or it should be already
compiled). To compile you may want to use javac or any
other available compiler.Oops, sorry, I didn't mean compiling.
If you were able to compile ok, you can try running the program by using:
java -cp "." myTest
This usually will solve the problem when your program comples fine but can't find the class when you try to run it. It's almost like the compiler assumes to look in the current directory but the VM (java.exe) doesn't make this assumption.

If I imported proxy media to edit in fcpx, can I export a hight resolution (apple pro res 422 (hq)) version of the project ?

If I imported proxy media to edit in fcpx, can I export a hight resolution (apple pro res 422 (hq)) version of the project ?

OK, let me re-answer here. You HAVE to have either original or optimized media, you can not have Proxy only media, when using FCPX's inport options. You will switch between which FCPX is using; in 10.1 via the Canvas menu option called "Media", or in 10.0.9 and earily via the Preference's "Playback" settings.
When set to Proxy, FCPX only references that medai, which is 1/4 resolution, and not full quality. When set to Original Or Optimized, you'll get full resolution output, as FCPX is not referencing those files.
The only way to have Proxy only media is to convert it in Compressor and then import that. And that would just be a huge mistake.

How to Import Real media

Hi, everyone

Convert Real audio and video into MP3 and AVI files

I accidentally imported all media files on my iMac into iMovie.

I accidentally imported all media files on my iMac into iMovie. Now I have over 10,000 "clips" in a single event library. It is massive and causing performance issues. Some are photos, some are movies, some are music/voice memos and many are stock computer icons/images. If I delete them from iMove (via move to trash) via select all, am I deleting them from iMovie or from my iMac?

No problem! Also, a quick bit of information. If you did not already know this, when you empty the trash, it does not actually delete your files. It just allows the space that those files were taking up to be overwritten. That's why you can go to your Time Machine and recover these files. So, your computer will not improve in the speed department that much after deletion. I'm pretty sure there's a way to completely wipe files off of your computer, therefore actually regenerating space, however I do not know how to get through that process. You may want to ask this in a new separate discussion. Also, please respond to my reply (with a link) right after your add the conversation if you want to create the thread, because I'd like to know too, based on the fact that I cleared 259.82GB off of my computer within the last few months in one sitting.

I import my media file by following method:

i import my media file by following method:
Windows
Add File to Library
Navigate to and select the file or folder that i want to add but after additing there is no content is appear in i tunes library. what can i do?

Either what you're trying to add is corrupt in some fashion so iTunes won't process it, or it is being added but isn't showing where you would expect it to. Try sorting the Songs view on the Date Added column.
Move the files you want to add into <Media Folder>\Automatically Add to iTunes. Anything that iTunes cannot process will be moved into <Media Folder>\Automatically Add to iTunes\Not Added. Assuming we're talking mp3s the utility MP3val may be able to fix some problem files.

Importing Avid Media into FCP

I am taking media from an Avid Adrenaline system and want to bring it into FCP to cut. However, the disk w/Avid QTs won't appear on my desktop. It plays fine on the Windows-based Avid (XP, I believe), but my Mac won't see it. I've tried downloading Avid codecs and putting them in my Quicktime Library as recommended by the Avid website, but that doesn't seem to work. I've been told I should try exporting out of Avid using Sorenson or H.264 codecs. Anyone with experience on this so I quit wasting time?
Thanks
IMac Mac OS X (10.3.9) FCP 5.0.1

Actually, my experience was that it was QT 7.1.6 that broke the version of the Avid codec I had been using before, not a particular FCP update. I have not tried the codec linked to earlier in this thread.
I have noticed a unique color shift in both luma and chroma when importing Avid codec clips. It takes two color correction filters to correct for this, but I have saved this pair as favorites, and can apply them at the end of the edit.
I would much rather import the clips than recapture, as we're talking about days of recapturing, as opposed to a couple hours of importing. If I can get the codec supported, and I know how to correct for the color shift, I have no qualms about using the Avid media. My question has more to do with whether I will be able to see individual clips in the finder to attempt to import, or whether the media files will be in some format QT and FCP will not recognize, and if so, whether there is anything I can do about it. I don't expect any of the Avid logging info to come along, and I know that even if I were to have Avid editor export a batch list, a reconnect would likely be impossible, and I'd be looking at recapture.
If it were a question of simply creating new QT wrappers on the files, we'll be up against another shortcoming of FCP - the Batch Export process does nont allow the creation of reference movies...
Anyone know about what the Avid media folders look like in the finder?
Thanks much -
Max
