Final Cut Pro similar plug-ins for iMovie?

I'd like some more functions for my current movie editing software (iMoive '09), are there any plug-ins for imovie that have FCP features? Features like multicam, screen on screen, split screen , green screen, after effects, hd camera support, etc....
I would just buy FCPX (maybe in the future, but not now) but I don't want to pay $300 + tax for an app with physical disk and packaging that I end up not liking, and I also don't have a credit card for the Mac App Store version. I would try torrenting it but I've heard some rumors of it crashing the whole computer, phising and what not. I'd rather take my chances with iMovie plug-ins than a pirated copy of FCPX.
I wish there was a cheaper version like how Autodesk does their whole express and pro versions (Sketchbook Express/Pro, AutoCad Express/Pro), I am aware that at one point there was a FCP Express that's now discontinued....

I appreciate that you don't have a credit card to use on the Mac App Store, but iMovie '11 is available for the paltry sum of US$14.99 - this latest version has some of the effects you are seeking, such as Picture in Picture, Side by Side and Green Screen. iMovie '09 may also have some of these features (I can't recall, as I've been using iMovie '11 for some time now).
Both iMovie '09 and '11 support HD cameras and a range of formats. If a format is not supported, it is relatively easy to convert clips to a suitable editing format for iMovie.
In Australia, cards (such as Visa) are available for a nominal value from the local supermarket. These can be safely used for internet purchases, given their specific value. So, you purchase a card for pretty much the exact value you require, make your purchase then destroy the card. I guess a similar thing is available in the US and other countries. That may be a good option for you if you wish to purchase apps from the Mac App Store.

Hi. Does anyone know what video editing software is compatible with my MacBook - version 10.6.3? I am looking to edit films and already have Final Cut Pro, but am looking for something a little more basic and easier to use. Thanks. Vicki

Hi Cereskit
Thanks again for the message. I've done the updates and have the App Store on my desktop. I went into it and searched for imovie but couldn't find the basic imovie, which I presume is what I'd need for editing?, rather than imovie 11 for £10.49, which is for making trailers, it seems. Also, were you saying that imovie would be free?

The duration of the selection you make when you click on a clip in the event browser is set in the FCP preferences.

EZedia Plug-ins for iMovie: Vol. 1 1.2.6

Hi out there!
Anyone try using this plug in? .......eZedia Plug-ins for iMovie: Vol. 1 1.2.6
If so, how did you like it and did it work well with imovie? Was it user friendly? etc. etc.
Thanks,
Simonne

I doubt it, but you can never be sure when you're dealing with Windoze. I've never had a problem when I run Windoze using Virtual PC, but I also never use IE. If you do have a problem, you can always remove Flash player.

Is the final cut pro application too large for my 13" mac pro or should I install it on an external drive?

Is the final cut pro application too large for my mac book pro laptop? Should I install it on a hard drive?

4 GB hard drive!?! It's a memory size not hard drive size Your hard drive is much bigger than 4 GB . If you have 2011 model then hard drive size is 500GB or 750 GB HDD. You can install final cut pro and many other programs .

No, iMovie 09 can not have plug-ins. If you want plug-ins, try the more powerful iMovie 06. Below are many plug-ins for iMovie.

Final Cut 3rd party plug ins

I downloaded some plug in filters for FCP but I cannot find the plugin folder I was told it is, Library, Aplplication support, final cut pro system support, plug ins but there is no final cut pro system support folder. Where do I put these? What do I do? I am running Leopard and the newest final cut. Thanks

There are actually 4 or 5 locations it could be in, including the application bundle itself but the most likely location is /Library/Application Support/Final Cut Pro System Support.
Glad to know that you found it though.

Final Cut Studio 2 plug-ins?

Hi Folks,
Can anyone enlighten me?
I'm wondering if there is a plug-in which enables you to export clips from the latest version of Final Cut Pro to Adobe After Effects CS3? It would be very very handy!
Are there also any other plug-ins that people would recommend?
Your thoughts please.
Thanks,
Ben

Those are the ones I use most often. There is a HUGE list of all the plugins made for FCP on a site called www.proapptips.com...but it is currently down for repairs. Up soon.

Why is updating final cut pro such a nightmare for all users?

How come I cant get back to final cut pro 6.0.3? Or 6.0.4? These were a stable version of FCP for MY SET UP..... I can not find how to get back to these versions. All that I see is pro updates, or updates using apples software update, that will just get me back to 6.0.6, a version of FCP that my plugins dont work under.
Is there a secret place where 6.0.3 lives that I dont know about? I have seen reports saying there is no more way to get back to 6.0.3 or certain levels of FCP.
This truly is a nightmare. This is coming from a 10 year user of logic, a program that was bought from a german company by apple, and intergrated into their own product line of apple products. With logic, I can go back to 7.2.3 if I wanted to, or logic 8.0.2, if thats the set up that works for me with my plugins. Is this even possible?

When item(s) are available in Software Update, go to the menu bar > Update.
Activate the option *Install and Keep Package*
The individual Installers will be saved at: Hard Drive/Library/Packages.
Now, stop cherry picking the advice you have been given over the past few days. Copy the contents of your User space to an external drive. Bite the bullet and reinstall Mac OS X. Run Software Update and accept everything. Repair Permissions and restart the computer when it is done.
Install Final Cut Studio. Run Software Update and accept everything. Repair Permissions again and restart the computer when it is done.
Install other software from their original discs or download them again.
Copy the contents of the folders from the old User space back to the folders with the same name in your new User space. *Do not copy the contents of the Library folder*.
When you have done that, post back and I will help you retrieve your email and third party fonts.

Final Cut Pro 7 keyboard shortcuts for Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 for Windows

Attached is the file that contains the Final Cut Pro 7 keyboard shortcut set for Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 for Windows.
This file was mistakenly left out of the Premiere Pro CS5 installer, so people who tried to switch to this keyboard shortcut set were unable to do so.
Unzip the file and then install the .kys file by copying it here:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro CS5\Keyboard Shortcuts\en_US
(where C:\ may be replaced by the a different volume if you installed somewhere other than the C drive, and en_US may be replaced by another locale ID)
This file was included in the Premiere Pro CS5.5 installer, so manually installing this file is only necessary for Premiere Pro CS5.
For information about keyboard shortcuts, including how to customize them, see this page:
"Keyboard shortcuts"

By the way, Mac users don't need to update this file, it's for Windows users only.

Final Cut Pro Maschine Plug-In Crash

Hello, the other day i was trying out some new preset audio effects in Final Cut Pro when I came across Maschine FX. Wanting to know what it did i decided to apply it to my audio clip. Immediately after doing this Final Cut Pro X crashed and every time I open it back up it crashes and gives me this error message: Final Cut Pro quit unexpectedly while using the Maschine plug-in.
How do i disable this falty plug-in from corrupting my entire movie project?

Here is an app from Digita Rebellion that has a plug-in disabler you can use if the plug-in doesn't come with an uninstaller. There is a free trial.

Does Final Cut Pro offer native support for DVCPRO HD 720p25?

I would like to online a DVCPRO HD project on a Final Cut Pro suite with an HD i/o card, but I just wanted to make sure that the latest Final Cut Pro offers support for DVCPRO HD 720p25 before making the jump.

Thanks for the info. I will check if the production company's Blackmagic HD card supports DVCPRO 720p25.
Just for your information, we have offline edited on an Avid MC Adrenaline. We have had the biggest problems ingesting the media since we shot on a Varicam at 25p and the Avid wouldn't accept firewire. So we ended up cutting in 30i. Which now ***** since the online is a pain.
It seems like we will export an EDL per video track from the Avid, then hopefully find a company or a person who will convert our 30fps EDL to 25fps via the software EDLMax24. Then import the EDLs into a Final Cut Pro HD suite with a Blackmagic HD card via HD-SDI, and online from the HD AJ-1400 deck. And hopefully that will work.
The only outstanding thing is to find someone with EDLMAX24 since it retails at 600USD.

Will Final Cut Pro 7 be updated for retina capabilities like X?

I'm getting the retina Macbook Pro and I was wondering if they were going to upgrade FCP7 for retina capability just as they did X. I like 7 a lot better than X. Do you guys know?

I like it. I use it. It's still my favorite NLE.
But Apple is done with FCP 7. There will be no update for it...not even for Retina displays. It is done.
