  • I have Final cut Pro HD sequence and I need to burn this on a DVD

    I have Final cut Pro HD sequence and I need to burn this on a DVD, my sequence lasts 1 hr and 33 minutes. What are my options? Is it better to export as a Quick Time movie or using the compressor? I'm new to the compressor just learning, please help.

    Select your sequence in the browser window, go to the File menu and choose Export Using Compressor.
    When compressor opens, choose the DVD best quality settings, 120 minutes.
    For audio and video both, choose both the m2v video and the AC3 audio. (Dolby Professional)
    Choose a destination for your files, and hit submit.
    When it's finished, import these files into your DVD SP project, and make your DVD.
    Be sure to choose the 16:9 anamorphic settings.

  • Final Cut Pro 4.5 and Quicktime 7 compatibility issues. Error 39!

    I see some people saying Quicktime 7 is not compatible with Final Cut 4.5 and some saying it is.
    I upgraded to 10.3.9 and then Quicktime 7 and I started getting error 39 at this one spot in my timeline and then crashing if I tried to play just a few seconds ahead of that spot. I tried trashing the prefs but that didn't do any good. The individual files play fine outside the timeline so it isn't corrupt media. I tried rerendering the effects that are at that point but that didn't help. I tried copying the entire timeline to a new sequence and that didn't help.
    The strange thing was that when I took the part of the movie that was having trouble and deleted it from the timeline it still got error 39 when just playing over the empty timeline where the media used to be! This led me to realize that the problem lay in some Quicktime audio effects I had about a second in front ot the error 39 spot. I took off the effects from that audio but it didn't help. Then I deleted that audio from the timeline and just pasted it back in from the original clip and then it finally got to working.
    Now I know nothing about the software, but I thought there might be some connection between the fact that I had effects that FCP labels as "quicktime effects" on there from my days in Quicktime 6.5, then upgraded to Q7, and perhaps those old effects don't work in Q7? I don't know.
    So, my immediate problem is solved but I thought this experience may be of use to someone else. And perhaps some compatibility issues can be brought to light.

    I would assume the Software Update program has sufficient logic within it to detect that my friend is running Final Cut Pro 4.0 and it would therefore be disastrous to install QuickTime 7.3, thus removing QuickTime 7.3 from her list of suggested updates. Would someone at Apple please fix this?
    Sorry, but Quicktime is a component for SO MANY things, not just FCP. Sorry, but the OS doesn't detect that older versions of software are on there and won't be compatible...this is where you need to have a little knowledge. And sorry, but you need to have a little knowledge. If things are working, DO NOT UPGRADE unless it has been tested and cleared. In the case of FCP 4...it has not.
    Rule of thumb...if you use older software, you have to stick to older versions of the OS and components that that software relies on.
    How many things were broken with Vista? So many that the HUGE community let out a cry and now XP is available again configured on machines or as a stand alone buy. And no, Vista didn't warn that certain applications wouldn't work either.
    You gotta research and find out. This place here...this forum...is a FANTASTIC place to find stuff like this out.
    BTW...Apple doesn't read these forums, only us users. Gotta submit feedback here:

  • I have been using final cut express for years and now want to switch to final cut studio 3. do I have to remove final cut express before installing final cut studio 3 or can I have them both installed at the same time on one computer?

    I have been using final cut express for years and now want to switch to final cut studio 3. do I have to remove final cut express before installing final cut studio 3 or can I have them both installed at the same time on one computer?

    You can have them both on the same computer as I and many others have done for years.
    Just go ahead and install FCS 3 normally.
    There will be absolutely no problems.

  • Final Cut Pro 5.1 and a Macbook

    I am looking to buy Final Cut Studio. I was hoping to get some feedback on this question: Must you have a MacbookPro to run Final Cut Pro 5.1 (and the rest of Final Cut Studio), or will it run on a Macbbok without any problems? I would really like to hear from People who has actually have run Final Cut Pro 5.1 on a Macbook and what their experiences were. I know the Macbook does not have the ATI Mobilty Radeon X1600 graphics card like the MacBookPro does. So was that an issue for anyone?
      Other OS  

    Here's Apple's official position: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303782
    However, there are several people running most of the Studio Apps successfully ... except possibly Motion. With FCS2, chances are Color won't run either. You should be able to search here for similar postings; this topic comes up frequently.

  • Final Cut Pro 4.5 and Final Cut Express 3.0 - 5 minute captures then freeze

    Something I have found with Final Cut Pro 4.5 and Final Cut Express 3.0.
    After Updating to Tiger - 10.4.11 and Quicktime 7.4.1 - Both Pro 4.5 and Express 3.0 will not capture more then 5 minutes and 12 seconds. If you are having this issue the solution I used to fix both Pro and Express issues was an update on the software. Final Cut Pro 5 fixed the problem (or 6 if you can) and with Final Cut Express, version 3.5 fixed the issue but if you can go with FCX 4.
    Let me know if this helped or if you have found a different solution. Downgrading the os might help but that is too much of a pain and it's time to upgrade the software anyway.

    #29: Need AGP Graphics card
    Shane's Stock Answer #29 – Error: “Need AGP Graphics card”
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302667
    The Final Cut software is looking for a graphics card type that is required for that version of the software. FCP 4 and FCP 4.5 were released when AGP cards were the requirement. Attempting to open this on a Mac with a PCIe graphics card, such as an Intel Mac, will cause this error. FCP 4.5 is not supported on the Intel Macs. If you happen to have a PowerPC Quad processor Mac and get this error, you can try this hack:
    http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/feedback/finalcut_pro_on_oldmacs.html
    You can also press the "esc" key as you launch FCP. This enables FCP to open and run, but know that it might not work optimally.
    If that doesn’t work, or if you have an Intel Mac, you are going to have to upgrade to a supported version of FCP…and FCP 6, part of Final Cut Studio 2, is the latest version.

  • How to let Final Cut "ignore" other monitor and have preview on the largest

    How to let Final Cut "ignore" the other monitor" and have preview on the largest monitor?
    I have a setup with a MB Pro and an external Eizo 27" calibrated screen.
    Now I am using the 27" as the main screen with Final Cut with its panes and windows on it and the MBPro as preview (Command F12). I would like to see the preview on the large 27" when I hit Command F12 and not on the laptop sometimes. Any way to do this?
    When I do the "mirror" screen setup the resolution drops down on the Eizo 27" so that does not seem to be a good option.
    Any solutions?

  • Final Cut Studio 2: Requirements and Recommendations

    Hello Final Cut Studio 2 Experts,
    I'm considering purchasing Final Cut Studi 2, and to make sure that I'll benefit from the full range of specific application (FCS/motion/color...) and I'd like to ask few questions (5 main points) regarding requirements and recommendations. So, please be prepared for much reading as I am not an expert on the matter. I like to know if my computer accepts any further hardware parts highly recommended and if I can purchase and install them myself.

    SORRY, BUT MY PREVIOUS POSTING DIDN'T HAVE THE FULL LIST OF HARDWARE CONTENTS of my Power Mac G5.
    Hello Final Cut Studio 2 Experts,
    I'm considering purchasing Final Cut Studi 2, and to make sure that I'll benefit from the full range of specific application (FCS/motion/color...) and I'd like to ask few questions (5 main points) regarding requirements and recommendations. So, please be prepared for much reading as I am not an expert on the matter. I like to know if my computer accepts any further hardware parts highly recommended and if I can purchase and install them myself. And yes, you should also know that I intend to use a Panasonic multi-format (HD/SD) camera for capturing and exporting videos.
    N.B. Please note that the full list of my Hardware contents appear at the bottom of this text.
    THANKS IN ADVANCE for your expert advise!
    So, here we go:
    Application-Specific Requirements
    Final Cut Studio
    Capturing HD resolution video using the ProRes 422 format requires a Mac Pro with an Intel Xeon processor or a G5 Quad computer and a qualified third-party capture card.
    1) Do I need an Intel Xeon processor? If yes, can I purchase and install the component by myself (like RAM)?
    Motion
    The standard graphics card in any Mac Pro, MacBook Pro, iMac with Intel Core Duo, Power Mac G5, or iMac G5; 1.25GHz or faster PowerBook G4; or 1.25GHz or faster flat-panel iMac:

    ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 or 9600
    NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT, 7300 GT, 6600, 6600 LE, FX Go5200, or FX 5200 Ultra
    For 16- and 32-bit rendering: a graphics card with at least 128MB of VRAM
    2) Do I need one of the ATI Radeon 9800, 9700... or ATI Mobility Radeon? Why does my Hardware contents say ATI Radeon 9600, and not ATI Mobility Radeon 9600, is there a difference?
    Color
    The standard graphics card in any Mac Pro, 17-inch MacBook Pro, 24-inch iMac with Intel Core Duo, or 2.5GHz or faster Power Mac G5 Quad:
    ATI Mobility Radeon X1600
    ATI Radeon X1600
    NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GT, 7600 GT, 7300 GT, 6600, or Quadro FX 4500
    A display with 1680-by-1050 resolution or higher
    A three-button mouse for full functionality
    3) Do I need and ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 or ATI Radeon X1600?
    DVD Studio Pro
    For playback of DVD Studio Pro 4-authored HD DVDs: a Macintosh computer with a PowerPC G5 or Intel Core Duo processor
    For writing finished projects to disc: an Apple SuperDrive or other DVD recorder
    For writing finished projects to a double-layer disc: a double-layer-compatible recorder and double-layer media
    For transporting HD projects to a replicator: an external drive or Internet transfer of the project’s disk image
    For transporting SD projects that contain copy-protection or dual-layer features to a replicator: a DLT drive, external drive, or Internet transfer of the project’s disk image
    4) Do I have an Intel Core Duo processor? Do I need an Apple SuperDrive?
    What is a "replicator"?
    Application-Specific Recommendations
    Motion

    ATI Radeon X1900 XT, X850 XT, X800 XT, or X1600
    NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GT, 6800 Ultra DDL, 6800 GT DDL, or Quadro FX 4500
    For 32-bit rendering: a graphics card with 256MB of VRAM or more
    Color
    The following graphics card is highly recommended:
    ATI Radeon X1900 XT
    Dual displays with 1920-by-1200 or higher resolution
    5) Do I have one of the highly recommended cards ATI Radeon X1900 XT etc...? How do I get it and can I install it myself?

  • Will Final Cut Studio 2 HD and FCP 7 Upgrade load on newest OS?

    I have Final Cut Studio HD and an FCP 7 Upgrade on my old system.  Looking to buy a new iMac and wondered if I could load Studio 2 and FCP 7 on the newest OS?
    Any insight is appreciated!

    Forgot to mention, although it will install it isn't officially supported by Apple anymore. Just in case someone jumps in to point it out.

  • Updating Final Cut Studio 2.01 and workflow between FCP and AE

    Hi. I am currently working in FCE 3.5 and am considering purchasing Final Cut Studio 2.01 (new and sealed) as opposed to the latest version since I am running a PowerPC G5. Am I assured of being able to download all the updates for Final Cut Pro 6 and exactly which version would be the latest and final one? Was there ever an FCP v6.5? I do mainly animation/motion graphics and work in After Effects (along w/ Flash, Carrara, Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.). I understand that the workflow between FCP (as opposed to FCE) and AE is greatly enhanced. Can someone give me an idea of what advantages this new workflow will offer in terms of what I'll be able to accomplish that I can't do now w/ FCE? Also, any other comments on how FCP (as compared to FCE) will benefit me as an animator will be greatly appreciated. Lastly, am I correct in assuming that I will be able to open my FCE 3.5 project files in FCP 6 but not visa versa? Thanks. Jack.

    Thanks for the replies everyone. I see that I will need some 3rd-party support in order to realize the benefit of a Final Cut Pro/After Effects workflow. Have another question. What are the kinds of filters that you can keyframe in FCP but not in FCE? And are there many filters in FCP that are not included w/ FCE? As I deal mainly w/ animation as opposed to footage of live video I am trying to justify the investment in Final Cut Studio 2 in terms of it being a benefit to me as an animator. I currently use FCE 3.5 (which includes versions of SoundTrack and LiveType) and After Effects CS3 plus other graphics programs. I would love to be able to work within DVD Studio Pro as iDVD is so limiting as an authoring program but am not sure how much I will benefit from switching from FCE to FCP. This is what I am trying to nail down.

  • I'm running OS X, but I can't run Final Cut Pro 1.0 and appropriate upgrade

    I recently purchased a Macbook with OS 10.4.6 on it. I have Final Cut Pro 3, but I can only install it via FCP1 and upgrade to FCP2 and finally to FCP3. However, when I try to install 1.0, it says that this system cannot support it. I can't seem to figure out how to run Classic mode either.
    So, my question is, what are my options to run this software? (I really do not want to purchase the newest software.) Also, I know someone who has FCP3 full version (not an upgrade); would it be possible to install this software and use one of the serial numbers from one of my other software disks? Any help would be great.
    Thanks!

    FCE is more limited but depending on your needs it might be fine
    check out http://www.apple.com/finalcut
    why do you feel you need to download an upgrade
    after FCP 4 (3-4 years ago) you no longer needed an older version installed just the serial number as they discovered the problem that you are running into now

  • Final cut pro 5.1 and photoshop cs2  w. macbook

    it seems that the reviews have been up and down with the usage of these programs on the macbook--considering the graphics card in this puppy.
    i currently have the old school powerbook 15" 867 and i am considering about getting into the macbook 2.0g (with 2gig ram)--my only concern is that i use those two programs an awful lot--pretty much the only thing i use that makes my computer really work. considering that i am a student on a tight budget, and that i do have G5 machines at school to do my heavy duty editing, does anyone know if there has been any more updated reviews about these programs and the macbook? if anything, it should definitely be better than my old school powerbook right? it has been quite awhile since i been in the hunt for a new computer. any help would be greatly appreciated!
    powerbook 867   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    This is my simple advice, buy the correct tool for your software. Final Cut Pro is NOT supported by Apple on the MacBook. It supported on the MacBook Pro. You weren't using an iBook before you had a PowerBook, why would you get a MacBook now and not a MacBook Pro? If I were you, I would get a MacBook Pro with the base amount of RAM and upgrade that later.
