Final cut generator in motion 5.1

I can't save the category in final cut generator in motion 5.1?
Is posible to lock and unlock publish?

A Motion project can also be "Published" as a FCPX Generator.
When working with a Motion project, select "Publish Template"
In the sheet that appears, you'll need to enable "Publish as Final Cut Generator"
Also you need to create a new category for it to reside in.
Once you do, the Motion project will appear as a generator within FCPX.

Missing Final Cut X and Motion from my purchase history.

My old laptop died. Apple was kind enough to replace the computer, but when I log into the app store, my Final Cut X and Motion apps are missing from my purchases. I haven't encountered this before, and I'm not quite sure what to do. Help!

Final Cut working with motion

I am used to working with final cut express and livetype where I would do the following:
- edit my videos
-export to livetype
-create edit my animations / text over video
-import livetype files to my final cut project for final editing
I have just purchased final cut pro x and Motion 5 and cant understand how to acheive the same sort of workflow. I want to be able to edit my videos together in final cut and then take that into Motion to add my animations etc over the top. Is there no easy way of doing this? i.e can I export final cut project to motion or open the 2 together?
In Livetype it used to export final cut markers which was essential to adding animations at the right points in my edit?
Thanks
Alistair

Not sure why you're responding to me BenG (loved your movies by BTW, woof), but since you have responded to me I would agree ripple training is grand. Whether it's a more powerful workflow is certainly subjective. If someone is intimately familiar with LiveType, it's beautifully archaic GUI, and it's roundtrip features (not offered in Motion 5) then in practice for specific types of graphic compositing, LT is arguably a more powerful workflow. It all depends on your goals and your point-of-view.

Problems in creating new final cut title in motion 5.0.5, not read from fcx

i am trying to create title in motion 5.0.5, but after saved them in new category i open them in final cut x (10.0.5) and just see a red icon, same thing happen if i just open a title in fcx and try to "open a copy in motion", without doing anything, just opening and saving but cannot use in final cut.

WHAT IS THE BEST VIDEO CARD FOR FINAL CUT PRO and MOTION?

Hello folks,
I have found a lot of posts regarding all kinds of troubles with ATI READEON X1900 video card.
When I talked to people from Apple, trying to decide which videocard to install in new MAC PRO, Ati Radeon X1900 was the one they did recommand for FCP and Motion. So are there any other cards which would actually suite better for Final Cut Studio2, or is Ati Radeon X1900 really the one to go with?
Thanks for any suggestions,
Kootenay

Techreport has some more information on the new 55nm Radeon (X3000) which should be another "mid November" releases, as well as an updated 8800 GT that still is under wraps.
So seems Intel and everyone else is trying to get new products out before the end of the year, if possible.
Drivers for graphics controllers may or may not need the work that sometimes seems to plague companies.

Final Cut Pro to Motion 4

Is it possible to send pre keyed footage from final cut to motion and have the filters stay?

Yes.
No.
Maybe.
What format? What filters?
Generally, I do not think using the roundtrip feature is a good idea if you are doing filters. Apply your filters and render. Export the rendered footage as self-contained movies to Motion. Or do you keying and then apply your filters.

Do I need to have Final Cut to run Motion?

Hello guys,
I understand that I can purchase Motion 5 (and Compressor 4) as stand alone applications, but I was wondering:
Do I need to have Final Cut installed in order to run it?
Just use it to create animated graphics, then export it as a self contained file and use it in any editing program.
And I was also wondering if Motion 5 would run OK on a new iMac (27 inch one with NVIDIA GE FORCE GTX 775 card).
Thank you so much for your feedback,
Paul

You do not need to have Final Cut installed to run Motion or Compressor. Each app can run as a stand-alone. Some functionality is enhanced when running them in combination. Motion will run just fine on any current hardware. You can always check the system requirments to know if the applications will run on a particular computer.

Final Cut Express 4 motion keyframing

I'm thoughly famaliar with FCP6, but haven't seen Final Cut Express since FCE Version 2.
I've been asked to teach FCE4 to a friend, but haven't seen it yet and am trying to prepare.
Is motion keyframing (scaling, cropping) handled the same way in FCE4 as it is in FCP6
(ie. in the motion tab of the Viewer), or do you have to do it in the timeline overlay area?
Thanks.

Yes, FCE4 handles keyframing the same way as FCP6. You can do it in the motion tab of the viewer or by clicking the keyframe button in the canvas to add a universal keyframe to all motion parameters. You can do the scaling, cropping, etc. in the motion tab or in the canvas if it is in Image+Wireframe mode.

Screen capture blurry in final cut, but not Motion

I screen captured something from the internet using snapz pro (I tried DV-ntsc, h.264, and now using 'none'). It looks great when its motion, but after render, looks bad in final cut. I tried bringing the file into motion and then exporting a loss-less from there and then bringing into final cut, but its the same problem of being blurry.
the video was captured 4x3, though its larger than 720x480. Thats one of the reasons I threw it into Motion, because it would standardize the size in the case that final cut didnt like it. I need to get rid of the blur. help.
eric

Also, if your file is LARGER in Motion, as you said, and then you drop it into a DV sequence, not only will it shrink, but it will inherit the DV 5:1 compression.
What size are you using in Motion? What settings? If you want it to look that good in FCP, you need to use the same settings in FCP. If you are adding it to a DV sequence, then you will have to live with the DV compression. OR, try it in a DV50 sequence. Better compression, higher bit rate.

Video does not display when sending from Final Cut Pro to Motion

Suddenly, when sending an audio & video sequence to Motion, a new Motion file is created, and all my layers come in properly, but the video does not display.
The audio plays fine, and Motion clearly know that there are video tracks there, but it does not display them.
Additionally, when rendering the Motion file back in FCP, it turns in to black video.
I have previous sequences within the same project that were sent just fine, and are editable properly, but any new ones I try to create just come out black.
Help, please?

Do you have Motion mistakenly set to render out with an Alpha channel?
Double click your Motion clip in the Timeline. Go to Modify > Composite Mode in the menu bar and set the Alpha to "None/Ignore".

Sending final cut clips to Motion

I did this just yesterday, and it worked fine, now all of a sudden when I go to send a clip to motion, it just shows up black in motion!! The clips not there!!
Suggestions??

Be sure the clip is set to 'read and write' in FCP.
Along these lines, when I try to send a clip to Motion, I am getting a clip open in Motion , but the wrong one. Same thing in Shake. What appears is a different segment of the original captured video, but not the bit part that I have edited into my timeline and tried to send. What am I missing?
