Final cut pro language

This is probably a stupid question, but I like to very sure before I click on things.
So, I am going to download the free trial for Final Cut Pro.
At the download page it asks that I enter my location so that support emails will be in the correct language etc.
Well, I'm in Japan, but i dont speak Japanese properly yet, so should i just enter my location as England? As I'd want any comunication between Apple and myself to be in English.
It would be much better if the request was for 'prefered language' rather than location. Then i wouldnt have to ask this question.
But I don't want to cause any kind of confusion on Apple's side, so i'd like to be accurate and check with the support forum before I click download.
Thanks.

Now that I am in America, does the English version of
Final Cut Pro 4. switch into Spanish? Does the
Eng.Ver.FCP4 switch into Japanese?
Normally Apple apps are all the same in terms of the localizations included -- i.e. there are no Japanese or English versions. You can usually check what a particular app offers by doing Get Info on the icon and hitting the languages tab. It may be that FCP4 only had a couple of localizations and that later versions have more.
PS This note indicates FCP4 only does English, French, German, and Japanese:

Final Cut Pro Foreign Language Menus

I have OSX 10.28, originally a Japanese version, with Final Cut Pro 4 Japanese. I can switch my OS into Japanese, English, Spanish and others, But Final Cut Pro I can only switch Japanese and English. No Spanish, nothing!
Now that I am in America, does the English version of Final Cut Pro 4. switch into Spanish? Does the Eng.Ver.FCP4 switch into Japanese?
Someone running FCP4 could you check for me if those languages come up in the English version, that would be great. This all happens in the International settings of the System preferences, drag the the language to the top. Then the menus changes into the foreign languages, after the program has been closed and reopened.
Adobe acrobate, Text editor, Keynote all switch into all three but fcp4 does not. What's up?
Thank you in Advance

Changing language of Final Cut Pro

A friend gave me a computer that has Final Cut Pro 3 on it, but it is operating in French. Is there any way to change this? Thanks.

Unfortunately, that doesn't work. It's not the computer, but that application. As if it was installed in French somehow, or bought there. Maybe it was...
Thanks, though.

Export through Final Cut Pro of .mov file results in non-viewable file...

Hello,
I recently worked on a film and had asked for a .mov version of the movie so I could get an uncompressed HD version in case I wished to use it for my demo reel (video for actors).
I was present when the director exported it and he exported it from Final Cut Pro (the latest version) and he exported it as a .mov file.
Well, I just tried opening the video and it does not work. In Quicktime, the error message:
"The movie "movie.mov" can't be opened.
You may need to install additional software to open this type of file.
I'm thinking it might be a codec issue.
Do you have any suggestions as to how the movie should be exported so that I avoid this type of error message?
I tried opening the file in iTunes and I got the audio, but the video was black. Another clue that it's a codec issue.
I just need a high quality (as uncompressed as possible) file that I can then add to an editing program and insert into my demo reel. I need the high definition format to be retained.
As for the frame-rate, etc. I'm not sure. It was done with high quality and expensive video equipment and didn't use tape. I know it was high definition and widescreen as well.

Nope, I don't have Final Cut Pro on my system.
I clicked on Get Info and nothing about the codec appears.
"Kind: QuickTime movie"
"Size: 1.99 GB on disc" (it is about 6 minutes long; that I remember)
"Title: movie.mov"
"Last Opened" is the next and last thing that appears.
I tried opening it using VLC and the movie just stops and starts throughout. It plays for just a second and then stops and I have to keep clicking the "Play" button to get it to keep playing.
Actually, just now I tried it again in VLC and it just kept stuttering.
From VLC, I chose Media Information and under Codec Details, the following appeared:
Stream 0:
Type: Video
Codec: MPEG-1/2 Video (xdvd)
Language: English
Resolution: 1920x1080
Frame rate: 23.976000
Stream 1:
Type: Audio
Codec: PCM S16 LE (sowt)
Language: English
Channels: Stereo
Sample Rate: 48000 Hz
Bits per sample: 16
Should I ask that the movie be re-exported using the ProRes codec???

Final Cut Pro issues in Lab environment

Ok so this one has me completely buggered.
I manage about 6 Mac Pros in a small TV Studio/Editing lab at a university. The Mac Pros are managed with an Xserve running server 10.6.2, using Open Directory for account management. All network accounts use a network Home folder, so any machine can use the same account and settings. The same server also manages a 25 machine iMac lab environment.
Each semester, we wipe the Mac Pros clean an reinstall the OS and Final Cut Studio. Last semester, the Mac Pros were upgraded to 10.6, and Studio 3 and we had no issues. This semester, a fresh installation of 10.6 was installed, as well as fresh Studio 3.
Now this is the problem we are having. Final Cut Pro 7 will not correctly create .fcp project files when users are logged in with their network server accounts. If you save the project to the desktop, or anywhere else in the Home folder, it creates a .fcp file, seemingly normal. But after the project is closed, the .fcp will not open again. Further more, a quick file size check shows the .fcp files are zero KB. Opening with Textedit shows an empty document, not even a single bit of data shows up.
But, Final Cut Pro 7 will create .fcp files perfectly fine on the local disk, or firewire drives. Local accounts also work fine. This problem only happens on network homes.
This is severely hampering the workflow for students using these editing stations, as they can't use their network home folders to save any data in Final Cut.
The strangest part, is it worked fine last semester. The same machines were running 10.6 and Studio 3, and the server has not been changed at all.
Any clues?

No problem Tom!
I didn't checked before but i solved thanks to your post... for some strange reason, the French language that i don't use, appeared in my language preference pane. I just added the English, and moved/deleted the French after it and FCP became English again!

Hi guys,
Well let me tell you...
I make the easy setup with 108060i and now is working good and printing to tape, but is so slow...
I remember that before I use to print to tape in 720x 480 cause is more faster and easy, in fact the tv channels doesnt accept tapes in high def! Is absurd!!
But I need to know how chance the settings audio/video to 720 x 480 but I already try with every single combination and no one works!
thanks again!
Also... I need to know what external hard drive is the best and faster to keep my finalcut archives and after make print to tape!
I have one seagate 1TB but this have an option that I can avoid that is that the disc go to sleep at the 5 minutes and this screw my print to tape work!
Did you know some one good with Fire Wire??
thanks a lot, and have a great day!

Final Cut Pro Timeline- finicky audio playback

I'm not sure what is going on here. After I've had final cut pro open for a while, sometimes a few hours, sometimes a few minutes, it starts having audio play back issues. It's really strange but sometimes it will only play back the audio of every other clip in the timeline. Sometimes it will play back all the clips but just the V/O or just the music track. And then if it happens to be choosing to play the V/O only and I pause and then un-pause, it will reverse and play the music but not the V/O and I can hit space bar as many times as I want and it will consistently alternate back and forth. I thought maybe I was pushing the system and after it rendered, this would go away. But exported all my timelines and burned a DVD, and the problem persisted. I've found that avoiding having more than one timeline open at a time helps (meaning I might be able to edit for several hours before the problem arises) but does not solve the problem.
I have an iMac 24" 2.8ghz with 4gb of ram and 30/500GB available.
I have yet to re-install final cut studio but it may come to that.
I don't even know what to search for in terms of troubleshooting or help online but if any one has seen this before or has suggestions, I would love to hear about it.
Thanks!

That sounds really weird.
The only time I've seen my system do anything near as crazy was due to a keyboard language change. For some reason my iMac, every so often, decides to slip into my secondary French Cdn layout. When it does, many of the key functions change, so when I think I'm doing one thing, I'm actually doing something completely different.
Any chance that something similar is happening to you and you are unknowingly toggling audio tracks on and off etc.?
If not, I'd definitely try trashing FCP preferences as a starter.

Final Cut Pro X - software update issues

Hi,
I’m trying to update my Final Cut Pro X software on my Mac and I keep getting the following error message:
An error has occurred.
The operation couldn’t be completed
(NSURLErrorDomain error – 1102.)(102)
Does anyone know what this means? And, how can I resolve it? I can’t export my projects out of Final Cut Pro either and keep receiving the error message (error -1); which I think is related to the software needing an update.
Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks,
Alicia

that error code in human language means 'no read permission'

Final cut pro 7 and final cut pro x

Is it wise to move from final cut pro 7 to final cut pro x for me who is already using fcp7 with no problems?

I think you should at least download the free FCPX trial and try it, for sure. I've edited in FCP since it came out and when I really tried earnestly to learn X, after a week or two, I was really impressed. The reasons are numerous, but one of the big improvements is speed. FCPX is very fast at handling video, all kinds.
If you know FCP7 well, then you will already understand the importance of many aspects that apply to any HD NLE, such as drive speed, sufficient drive space, (external w/fast language, Thunderbolt, USB3 or at least FW800) etc., but also there will be a kind of learning curve to the different way FCPX organizes, maybe more of a learning wall. But it's too much to lay on you in this reply - suffice to say I think you will love X. Especially if you really stop to learn it. It really is nice, and often receives completely unfair criticism.

I have an hd movie on final cut pro x; i want to create an sd disk of that movie. compressor created 2 files: dolby.... and mpeg2. How do I get these files burned to disc to create my sd movie?

These are elementary streams and they would be used by DVD authoring apps that use them for reasons like foreign language capability. Examples would be DVD Studio Pro, Adobe Encore, Toast.
The most straightforward way to burn your DVD is either to use the Share feature in FCP or the Batch Template feature in Compressor.
If you can find a boxed copy of iLife (try Amazon), it should have iDVD as part of the suite of apps. iDVD offers far more complete authoring capability than FCP or C4. iDVD doesn't work with elementary streams; you'd just drag in your HD movie and you'd be good to go.
Good lluck.

Subtitles for Final Cut Pro X?

hey guys, i just wanted to add subtitles to my video because its in another language, my Final Cut Pro X version is 10.0.9.. soo yeah, thanks.

There are some plugins that are supposed to enhance support for subtitles, but AFAIK there is no easy way to make use of, say, a .srt file directly.
That said, I have had decent results in short movies by using a basic lower third title, making any adjustments to text font, size, color, etc., and then copying and pasting, and just changing the text. It is a bit of work, but the result was not disappointing (but my needs were relatively simple).

Can I download final cut pro X trial version and use final cut pro 7 during and after the trial period ?

My company uses Final cut pro 7 and I have to know if we can try Final cut pro X on one of our G5 and, in the case of we can't switch to FCPX, if we can use FCP7 again without re-initialise it. Thanks
sorry for my english. it's not my maternal language.

You cannot use FCPX on a G5. It's Intel only.

Doe Final Cut Pro 7 work in Yosemite?

Does anyone know if Final Cut Pro 7 work in the new Yosemite upgrade?

Thank for the advice and link, Meg, but your are overly paranoid RE CleanMyMac 2. For fear of hijacking this tread (FCP + Yosamite) I will be very brief. (And, no, I do not work for MacPaw and am generally not a fan of their software.)
I've been a Mac-man since '84, and still have my 512k Mac SE (Yes, I still have it working). Now I am a Certified Computer Forensic Examiner and know very very well what goes on under the hood of OS X, am very familiar with the directory corruption that seems so persistent in the HFS+ file system, the relatively unstable permissions and all the crap that doesn't get cleaned out or managed "automatically" or at all by OS X. I don't need Arabic, French, Spanish, Danish or any other of the multitude of language iterations of OS X and/or other Apple software that unnecessarily sapping gigabytes of space on my machine. If I drag an App to the Trash there can be a multitude of extensions, drivers, settings/plists files and other junk that does NOT get removed with it... and if the average user discovers how to get into their relatively hidden Users/(Profile)/Library and try to remove stuff manually they are very likely to screw up their OS or break their other software. I have tested CleanMyMac 2 in a lab environment and, while the original was kind of screwy and less effective, CleanMyMac 2, does an excellent job of getting rid of totally unnecessary, disk-bloating CRAP from your drive and does it in a manner that is way more efficient and reliable than trying to do it manually. I've never had a negative experience with CMM2 and have found it to be no more difficult to remove manually than any of a bunch of other software.
While it does nothing to correct permissions errors or fix directory issues (sorry OS X Disk Utility ***** at that), I've found it to do an excellent job at locating and cleaning out all the stuff that OS X simply does not do on its own and does result in a more efficient, slightly faster-running machine.
Again, Meg, I appreciate your trying to help me out and provide caution regarding "cleaning" software. I, myself remain generally dubious about other products from MacPaw (particularly Gemini). It is certainly your right to avoid all of it and even Troll my feedback regarding CMM2. But lab results don't lie and my experience has consistently shown CleanMyMac 2 to be useful and non-destructive to my system and/or other software.
...... And it was an effective utility I used to get my FCP 7 to work again.
