Final Cut Studio 6/7 Capture Idle/Error

I've been using Final Cut Pro with Panasonic P2 cards for years, log and transfers have been no problem until today.
The video files playback fine in Log & Transfer, but as soon as I try to add the selection to queue and capture, it hangs and I get the red exclamation point and nothing is captured.
What's mistifying is that the individual clips playback fine in the Log & Transfer window, but they can't capture once they're in the Queue.
I use FCP 6.0.6 and FCP 7.0.3
Filmed on Panasonic AG-HPX500P in 720 on E-Series and R-series cards.
I tried capturing from a P2 deck, the camera and files I copied onto my hard drive.
All have the same failure.
Has anyone experienced similar issues and found a solution?
Thank You,

So you have both fcp6 and 7 installed on the same system? That might be the problem. Just a guess. Do some searching here and google having both installed on the same system to see if there are any problems.
You say this system worked fine up until today. Have you installed any other programs or done any software updates? I strongly recommend having a clone of your startup drive so that if things go south, you can quickly restore your system to its working state.
Try deleting your fcp preferences

My final cut studio keeps giving me this error out of memory message when ever i try to render a piece of footage and its closing unexpected. Does anybody know the reason?

My final cut studio keeps giving me this error out of memory message when ever i try to render a piece of footage and its closing unexpected. Does anybody know the reason?

I had this problem about 2 months ago and, as others have suggested in this thread, eventually traed it backed to some stills I had scanned and brought into the project. Accidentally I had changed the scanner settings, with the result that a couple of skills were well beyond 1980 x 1020 pixels. I resampled the stills and everything was fine again. Hope this might help.

Final Cut Studio 2 - Problems Capturing From XL2

Hey guys - I upgraded to FC Studio 2 a while ago, and haven't tried to capture video until today. For some reason, the log and capture window is not displaying anything but color bars. It's communicating with the camera, because is starts to play, but no video on my monitor... help! Thanks guys.

Sure your capture presets are correct?

Final cut studio pro 6 install problems and error message

Purchased a new macbook and am having trouble installing Final Cut Studio Pro 6- get this error message: You can't open the appliction FinalCutStudio.mpkg because PowerPC applications are no longer supported - have never seen this before, any clues?

The installer requires Rosetta to be present, but Lion doesn't include it anymore. You can try to install Rosetta from a Snow Leopard disc using the "Optional Installs". Note that this is not officially supported: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4769
There have also been reports that Lion will break most plugins for FCS 2 and FCS 3.

Can't install Final Cut Studio 2 because "PowerPC applications are no longer supported"

Bought a brand new 15" MacBookPro OS X 10.7 2.2Ghz Intel Core i7 and tried to install Final Cut Studio 2. Got the error message "You can't open the application FinalCutStudio.mpkg because PowerPC applications are no longer supported." Oh no, does this mean I have to spend more money!???

I'd like to provide an update on this situation in case anyone is in the same boat I am.
I went to the Apple store today. I asked if I could downgrade my operating system. They said no, since it came pre-installed with Lion. I asked if Final Cut Studio 3 was compatible with Lion. They said yes, for the most part. They said there was an issue exporting video in 1080p.
Of course, conveniently Apple is no longer selling FCS3 and the ones on Ebay I saw have gone up to more than $650 a copy. I am out $400 for stupidly buying FCS2 a few months ago, which is now useless to me. I told the Apple guy that I'm not buying FCS X until they work out all the kinks. This leaves me with this laptop that I bought for video editing with no editing software to use.
I never thought I'd say this, but I'm actually considering getting Premiere Pro now for Apple, which is supported in Lion and is running a deal for 50% off. (http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/faq.html#lion-os) If Apple doesn't start selling FCS 3 again, they are really not giving me any choice but to switch!

Errors During Instalation Of Final Cut Studio 5.1

Aloha,
I am having some trouble here!! I am trying to install FCP Studio Pro 5.1 on my mac. I tried to do an upgrade from FCP 4.5 HD on my orriginal Hard drive. The instalation went through its paces & asked me to put in the second disc. I did then it came back with an anoucment that there were errors during instalation & to try again I did & was never able to get it to instal... Getting frustrated I ran diskworior on the drive & tried again no luck... after some time I thought it might be the drive would not let me because there was an earlier version on there.... so any way after some other problems with this drive I decided to completely erase & instal Mac OSX on my second hard drive that has never had anything on it. I made this my new startup disk & upgraded the OS to OS 10.4.9 I then Tried to install FCP Studio Pro 5.1 on this drive.. this time It never got to ask me to put in another disk it came back with the same error during instalation try again!!!!!! So now I am getting ******!! but odly enough Final cut studio shows up in my aplications. When I click on it it gives me a warning that there was an error registering & once I click ok it seems to launch FCP 5.1....... ?? So is it really there or not??? & why is it not installing the other 4 discs??? and to add insult to this I have tried to install iLife 06 & I get the same error!!!! WHY!!!!!!!!!
Another thing.. I installed FCP Studio Pro 5.1 on another Identical computer down the street & it installed no problem!!!!
Can anyone help Please!!!!!!

I would take a different approach.
I would backup the old drive files to an external, and then do a clean wipe and new install of OS, updates and the FCS.
Best way to do it, in my view.

Quicktime error in Final Cut Studio II

Hello everybody,
since yesterday I am figthing with the following problem in Final Cut Studio II.
First I wanted to export my subtitles through the XML Export in Final Cut Pro 7.0.3 but this did not work out, as it looks like the stack had an overflow and it says: "XML translation was aborted due to a critical error".
As I tested, some smaller projects are possible to export XML but not my main project.
I looked for different fixes as the system and the projects worked some days before.
Then I checked if I can Export the Sequences with compressor as I allways did and I get an error "Failed: QuickTime Error -50" after some processing time!
This is the content that is getting logged by the Console:

Thank you for any help on this issue!
By the way, after seening this issue for some time in OS X 10.6.8 I upgraded to 10.7.1 and it did not change anything to the situation.
To me it looks like a plugin conflict but deleting of Caches and .plist's did not change anything to the situation!
Please help!!!
Best Regards,
Chris

After some peacefull time my system crashed completely on Friday!
I installed all from Scratch to make sure its not some old stuff that I carried on during migration.
It's not a problem with the motion files as I deleted all of them and XML export is still crashing!
The situation is, that after installing it all I got the same quicktime translation error again and I am quite angry about how Apple handles clients who are working on projects with the recent FCP story.
Unfortunately due to the problems in exporting XML I am not even able to switch to Adobe Premier as this is the only way to import there.
After a lot of testing I am quite sure, that this issue has to do something with an Apple Update release between June 2011 and now.
Conclusion: Final Cut Studio II is not working correctly anymore as it did before June 2011!!! Apple, Please fix this issue asap.!!!!

Can you transfer media captured in Final Cut Studio to a FCP 4.1 project

Hi
I batch captured some media on my G4 Powerbook with the FC Studio software and I want to add it to a FCP 4.1 project on my G5 dual 1.8 and when I transfer the files from the Powerbook to the G5 and try to import to the 4.1 project, I get a file corrupted message. Does that mean that Final Cut Studio is not backward compatible. If so . . any suggestions on a work around?
thanks

Just to clarify, you are trying to import the Quicktime movies that you captured using Final Cut Studio or are you trying to open a FCStudio project in FC 4.1?
If it is the former, ensure that you have captured your QT movies correctly (DV, 24P, HD, what format are you capturing). FCP 4.1 should read the captured clips in just fine.
If it is the latter (opening FCStudio projects in 4.1) you can export the project as an XML file and import that XML file into 4.1 and the project is essentially rebuilt. You may/will have to re-render and some transitions might break, but your timeline should be pretty much in tact.
Good luck and I hope this helps.

License Error on Final Cut Studio install

We just purchased Final Cut Studio 5.11 from the Mall of America Apple Store. After entering the serial number for Final Cut Studio, the Install screen moves on to the installation type, but gives me the following error,
"Licensing Error: The license file will not be written to disk because the user does not have enough privileges"
I have one account on this machine, which is the Administrator account, I am logged into it during installation, I even have a done a few things that made it ask me for my password, and this still comes up.
After encountering that error, i was still able to install the software, but none of the programs will run, each asking for name/company/serial, then telling me the liscense file is not found.
Help!
thank you!
Ross Hendrickson

I can't seem to find the license file, i've looked under library, and application support.
I have checked on my permissions, and I have read&write permissions to my home folder, applications, system, and both library folders.
In the Final Cut forum it said people were having problems with upgrading. I had an old version of FCP that I thought I had deleted, but maybe that is causing problems? Should I somehow uninstall all FCS/FCP info and start over?
thanks!

Final Cut Studio Anamorphic error

When capturing SD data from DVDVCPRO tapes my system displays clip in viewer in horizontally distorted anamorphic format.
I've been using the same [recommended] Panasonic deck {AG-DV2500] with no problem for for five years on this show, no problems. Clip looks normal during capture but after capture, open clip in viewer and it's stretched anamorphic. The Anamorphic box is not checked in Settings but somehow, somewhere, the system checks the "Anamorphic" column during capture. I click on the check and the clip goes back to normal but it's one swift pain to scroll over to the properties and do this extra maneuver for every clip.
This problem only cropped up a month ago after producers added 1080p HD video to the show and I had to upgrade OSX from Tiger to Leopard 10.5.8 and upgraded FCP to Final Cut Studio 7 [in mid-production, always a no-no, but...] and using 1440X1080 HD format as a Timeline setting.
Apple support has not been able to figure this one out yet.
???

and using 1440X1080 HD format as a Timeline setting....
1440x1080 is a non-square pixel Anamorphic format -it displays as 1920x1080 in square pixels.

Error installing Final Cut Studio and iLife on Leopard

When I upgraded to Leopard, I decided to entirely wipe my boot drive since I was experiencing problems with certain applications (ie: Final Cut Pro) in Tiger. Therefore I've been re-installing all of my applications in Leopard. I've been having some problems though, when I try to install Final Cut Studio, I get this message after a while of it trying to install the Apple Soundtrack Pro loops disc:
http://salsunproductions.com/misc/fcsinstallproblem.jpg
I also get a similar error when trying to install iLife 06.
The strange thing is that I am able to run the Applications fine with the exception that all my Final Cut Studio applications don't remember their serial number and my name/organization. I get this message every time I boot up a Final Cut Studio Application (this is the original Final Cut Studio, PPC)

As for the registration problem:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4582284&#4582284
As for the disc install, if you're sure you're disc isn't just scratched, then I guess there's nothing to do but wait for 10.5.1 and see what happens.

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. And yes, you should also know that I intend to use a Panasonic multi-format (HD/SD) camera for capturing and exporting videos.

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)?

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:

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

Mac Pro and Final Cut Studio 5.1.2

I've had problems trying to export mpeg files from final cut pro using compressor after having updated all applications to their current versions (FCP 5.1.2, Compressor 2.3, Qmaster 2.3, QT 7.1.3...) including firmware, OS and security updates. Since I was kind of in the middle of a project I ended up reverting back to the original universal crossgrade of Final Cut Studio (FCP 5.1, Compressor 2.1, Qmaster 2.1...) in order to get the desired results of a muxed mpeg. Now, before I go back to trying to resolve this issue of updating the software, I would like to know if anyone is running Final Cut Studio on a Mac Pro with all updates current (5.1.2, 2.3...) and with the ability to export muxed mpeg streams - both audio and video in the same file. Also, I have posted more specific questions regarding these issues in the compressor and FCP forums but decided I needed to hear from some Mac Pro users who have had success with the Final Cut Studio updates. BTW, I have done all the updates of Final Cut Studio (5.1.2, 2.3...) on a G5 quad at work and have had no problems whatsoever. I'd just like to have everything up to date and functional. Other than trying to get this worked out, I have found my Mac Pro to be most excellent. Thanks in advance.

Dave, thanks for your input. It would crash out during the compressor export and the failure reason would say 3x Crash Server Down in the compressor box. I haven't tried an mpeg-1 because all we broadcast are mpeg-2 program streams. Most of the stuff I export is no longer than 10 - 12 minute segments. If you could, try exporting as an mpeg-2 muxed. Some other possible factors - I had captured the original footage on a G5 quad at work, put them on an external drive and then loaded them onto the Mac Pro and imported them into the project. Could there be a difference between DV codecs of the PPC and the Intel processors? Now that I'm at a stopping point I'm planning on trying to do the update again. Just hoping to catch something I might have missed. If I were a total computer illiterate I would say user error, but I'm not.
