Having trouble with ingesting HD from p2 cards

I have an HVX200 a g4 and G5 and, powermac and am running FCP 5.1. I am trying to bring in different HD formats and frame rates via the import p2 option. I am getting the render line almost every time I import and drop a clip to the timeline. I am using easy setup for my frame rates, but I found one thing that works. For 720p 24fps, I only ingest 2 of the 4 audio tracks from the P2 card. Again I am very frustrated and am thinking it cant' be this difficult. Will easy setup do? I notice when i use easy setup, it asks for an HDV output device and if there isn't one there is a default sometimes at a different frame rate.
Anyway, I am very frustrated that I can't get HD into my FCP studio without all the hassles. Can any one shed light on this problem? Should I reinstall FCP? I am not sure what to do next. By the way, I can pull in any DV and there is no render problems.

I use the HVX200 as well. I have a different way of uploading video. I simply create a folder on my desktop labeled with a project name, sync my HVX200 up to the PC and then drag the contents of the p2 card over to the created folder. Make sure you grab both files.
I then open FCP and go to log & transfer. There is a small icon in the top left corner of the log & transfer window that allows you to find the folder you have created. Import the video with audio attached. You should be getting four lines of audio when using the p2 cards.
When you import the files into the timeline, FCP defaults to 4x3.That is why you have no problem with DV. You should get a prompt that allows you to change to the format shot when you drag it down into the timeline.
This method is a great way to backup video files. When finished with the project, you can move your created folder over to an external and keep all those captured files.

I'm having trouble with video imported from my camera memory card.

I'm having trouble with video imported from my camera memory card.The video breaks up and pixelizes when it's directly imported from the memory card. That makes the video useless. Why does this happen? It doesn't do that in any other video editing software. Thanks for the help.

More info please:
Type of camera?
Was the card formatted in the camera doing the shooting?
Type of files the camera is set to record?

I am having trouble with downloading videos from my Sony HDR-XR160 video camera. iMovie doesnt open up when i connect the camcorder. any suggesions?

i am having trouble with downloading videos from my Sony HDR-XR160 video camera. iMovie doesnt open up when i connect the camcorder. any suggesions?

Looking up your camera online, I found it is capable of 1920 x 1080 Full HD 60p Recording. It's the 60p (60 frames per second Progressive) that's the problem I think. iMovie '11 will do 60i (Interlaced). You might need to convert it from the format the camera currently uses into another format to get it into iMovie. Read more about it on this link here: How to import 60p footage From that message thread comes the recommendation to use ClipWrap to convert the camera's video clips now that they are in 60p:

Use ClipWrap to rewrap to QuickTime. Import the files. Edit in either 59.94 or 29.97. The latter if you want to use the high frame rate for slomo

I am new to Mac and am having trouble with uploading images from my pictures folder to Facebook and other share sites- some of my images are accessible while others are seemingly locked....

I am new to Mac and am having trouble up loafing images from my pictures folder to photography sites and Facebook. Some of the saved images are accessible, while others are not, ( they are light colored and cannot be uploaded) I am not saving them any differently.

Hi Robodisko,
Thanks for your prompt reply......
I often proof my work in preview then edit images in photoshop and rename from there. The dsc images are renamed to correlate the name of the class etc. i.e. dcs_001 is saved as the file name required 7A.jpeg etc.
The file names are required to correlate what is what and so on..........

I have an Ipod Touch (4th Gen) and I am having troubles with my downloads from purchasing music from the Ipod. On my downloads icon in the Itunes Store (on Ipod) there is a symbol of how many songs I still have waiting to download, but they wont download.

I have been having troubles with this for months and am extremly tired of not being able to download my songs. I bought these songs off of Itunes as well, so I really hope i can retrieve them. I do not know where to find a personal apple support person yet, does anyone know where to find one on the website?

Having trouble with creating objects from instances created with ClassLoade

Hi.
I'm having a bit of trouble with casting an instance of an object from a custom ClassLoader. Don't worry - the code isn't for anything sinister - it's for one of those life simulation thingies, but I want to make it modular so people can write their own 'viruses' which compete for survival. You know the score.
Anyway. I've got the beginnings of my main class, which seems to load the class data for all 'virus' classes in a folder called 'strains'. There is a abstract class called AbstractVirus which declares the method calls for how the viruses should behave and to get textual descriptions, etc. AbstractVirus is to be subclassed to create working virus classes and these are what my main class is trying to load instances of.
Unfortuantely, I can't cast the instances into AbstractVirus objects. The error I've been getting is 'ClassCastException' which I presume is something to do with the fact that my ClassLoader and the Bootstrap ClassLoader aren't seeing eye-to-eye with the class types. Can anyone help? This line of programming is really new to me.
My code for the main class is below:
/* LifeSim.java */
public class LifeSim {
public LifeSim() {
 /* Get a list of all classes in the 'strains' directory and store non-
 * abstract classes in an array. */
 Class virusClasses[] = null;
 try {
 /* Get a reference to the file folder 'strains' and make sure I can read
 * from it. */
 java.io.File modulesFolder = new java.io.File("strains");
 if (!modulesFolder.isDirectory() || !modulesFolder.canRead()) {
 System.out.println("Failed to find accessible 'strains' folder");
 System.exit(-1);
 /* Get a list of all the class files in the folder. */
 String virusFiles[] = modulesFolder.list(new ClassFileFilter());
 if (virusFiles.length == 0) {
 System.out.println("No virus strains in 'strains' folder");
 System.exit(-1);
 /* Create an array of class objects to store my Virus classes. Ignore the
 * abstract class as I cannot instantiate objects directly from it.*/
 virusClasses = new Class[virusFiles.length];
 VirusClassLoader classLoader = new VirusClassLoader();
 int j = 0;
 for (int i = 0; i < virusFiles.length; i++) {
 String virusName = "strains/" + virusFiles;
 Class tempClass = classLoader.loadClass(virusName);
 if (tempClass.getName().compareToIgnoreCase("strains.AbstractVirus") != 0) {
 virusClasses[j++] = tempClass;
} catch (ClassNotFoundException ncfe) {
System.out.println("Failed to access virus class files.");
ncfe.printStackTrace();
System.exit(-1);
/* TEST CODE: Create an instance of the first virus and print its class
* name and print details taken from methods defined in the AbstractVirus
* class. */
if (virusClasses.length > 0) {
try {
 // Print the class name
 System.out.println(virusClasses[0].getName());
 Object o = virusClasses[0].newInstance();
 strains.AbstractVirus av = (strains.AbstractVirus) o;
 // Print the virus name and it's description
 System.out.println(av.getQualifiedName());
 System.out.println(av.getDescription());
} catch (InstantiationException ie) { ie.printStackTrace(); }
 catch (IllegalAccessException iae) { iae.printStackTrace(); }
public static void main(String args[]) {
new LifeSim();
class ClassFileFilter implements java.io.FilenameFilter {
public boolean accept(java.io.File fileFolder, String fileName) {
if (_fileName.indexOf(".class") > 0) return true;
return false;
class VirusClassLoader extends ClassLoader {
private String legalClassName = null;
public VirusClassLoader() {
super(VirusClassLoader.class.getClassLoader());
public byte[] findClassData(String filename) {
try {
java.io.File sourcefile = new java.io.File(filename);
legalClassName = "strains." + sourcefile.getName().substring(0,sourcefile.getName().indexOf("."));
java.io.FileInputStream fis = new java.io.FileInputStream(sourcefile);
byte classbytes[] = new byte[fis.available()];
fis.read(classbytes);
fis.close();
return classbytes;
} catch (java.io.IOException ioex) {
return null;
public Class findClass(String classname) throws ClassNotFoundException {
byte classbytes[] = findClassData(classname);
if (classbytes == null) throw new ClassNotFoundException();
else {
return defineClass(legalClassName, classbytes, 0, classbytes.length);
Thank you in advance
Morgan

Two things:
I think your custom ClassLoader isn't delegating. In general a ClassLoader should begin by asking it's parent ClassLoader to get a class, and only if the parent loader fails get it itself. AFAIKS you could do what you're trying to do more easilly with URLClassLoader.
Second, beware that a java source file can, and often does, generate more than one class file. Ignore any class files whose names contain a $ character. It's possible you are loading an internal class which doesn't extend your abstract class.

Having trouble with my Xtreme Gamer sound card

I have an Alienware computer that came with the card and its software pre-installed. It has worked fine until today when BF2 would no longer recognize the card. When I uninstalled the software to reinstall it, it said I didn't have any devices. What should I do? I want to refrain from opening the case. Thanks!

Ya know, it is funny I ran across this thread. I am having the exact same problem with my Alienware and am currently working at trying to resolve it. So far I tried to force the drivers and it did not seem to like that so much. Older patch I found?didn't work. I think my next step is to uninstall everything creative and crack the case open and try removing the card. Then try a different slot if able or boot the comp a couple times without it, and then install it back in the?same slot. No IRQ?problems I checked that. I read somewhere that sometimes something in the bios can bug out and it needs to be re-checked in. Not sure of the exact terms of it atm, but I hope you get the idea. A quick fix that I did find that should work for you as well is to make sure?all?Creative?drivers are cleaned out and then use windows update to search for optional downloads. It finds a driver for the X-Fi that actually works.
Below is a copy/paste of a request for help?I placed on the Alienware boards just to give you an idea of where I am at. /startcopy?Hello,
I am at my wits end here. So figured I would come here and ask for some input. Basicly the problem I am having is I have poping/crackling sounds coming from my speakers while playing FSX. What is wierd is it only happens in certain missions and/or planes. It also sounded way messed up at the desktop and during sound tests but I was able to fix that by changing the freq to 24bit lowest hrtz setting studio quality.
I have been doing a ton of research into this problem and it would seem if I updated my drivers there is a good chance there is a fix in there for me.. I would hope so as I have tried everything under the sun. Known knowledge and reading every forum I could find.
The big problem I can't seem to over come is that no matter which drivers I use they tell me I am unable to use them because they do not see a Creative X-Fi on my machine. The newest Creative drivers tell me this. Even the Creative drivers that came with my AW backup disk act the same way. The only driver that I could get to work is the one that windows update supplies when the driver is fully uninstalled. What is even funnier is that when I use my AW Respawn disk that is also installs the same exact drivers that Windows Update installs for that card. Which are ancient. Antique really.
So why would no new Creative drivers want to work? No AW supplied backup drivers want to work? No downloaded X-Fi drivers downloaded from AW site want to work. And why would AW give me a driver for backup when even they themselves obviously did not get that one to work because the respawn disk uses the same old drivers windows update supplies when no drivers are installed?
I have tried Winzip to unpack the the .exe file and update wizard says that I have the best drivers already installed. Even though these ones just came out. I have even tried to force the drivers in with the have disk option and that just resulted in an unbootable pc thanks to the blue screen of death right after bios flash screen.
So, how do I get any Creative X-Fi Xtreme Gamer drivers to install. I have to be able to update them, in hopes that they will fix my crackling/static problem..
Just got the machine the other day so I haven't tried installing other games. And I do realize that AW is not respossible for FSX issues. But I really do find it odd that even my backup drivers won't work, and they were not even used anyways during the build process.. I would have hoped this issue would have been fixed in house then. So it has me really concerned.
What is my next step? Bios update?(this computer was built around Nov st 07.), Move card around maybe?(shouldn't this have been done before shipping?).. oh my head hurts from this one. I have never had to fold and give up and come to a forum for help. I am truly stumped.

/endpaste?So far there have been no reply. Someone from Alienware did call us and got in contact with my wife about the post. They?left a message with her?that I should try and install the newest drivers that Creative just released a few days ago. If they would have actually read my post they would have known I did try that. Really my biggest problem left is to get any Creative driver to see I do indeed have?a Creative X-Fi installed so I may update my drivers. Having a sound issue and not being able to update my drivers is driving me insane really. I?honestly?do feel I can learn more by reading around myself than calling them and wasting away a few good hours on the phone with someone that is?gonna?be just as confused about it as I am. lol??Going to get the time to crack her open tonight, late night. I can not wait to pull the numbers off of it and see what I got going on. I will make sure to stop back in and report my findings. Or if anyone has any input, any at all feel free to throw it my way.

I'm having troubles with reinstalling lion from Recovery HD

Hello everybody. Please keep in mind that I'm not english, so I'll probably do some grammar errors.
Here there's my problem:
I decided to reinstall Mac OS X Lion, on my macbook pro 15" (late 2010). Everything worked well, I just wanted to clean everything and start over again.
I started the computer from Lion Recovery HD, which is, as we all know, in a separate partition.
I followed the instructions written in the documentation: I initialized the Hard Drive with a HFS+ file system from the utility disk, then, I clicked on "Reinstall Mac Os X".
After choosing the right HD and writing the username and password for the mac app store, i got an error: my account is allowed only in the Italian store (I'm from Italy, but I'm temporarily in the USA. I also wrongly forgot my Snow Leopard DVD in Italy )
Anyways, after clicking OK and writing ID and PWD again, the download of the OS finally starts (First problem solved?)
After more then 15 hours downloading, I came home but it didn't change a lot: the computer was still on recovery hd (i think it restarted by itself?), the download was finished, but it didn't install the OS, nor I could boot from the main HD. If I try to click "Reinstall Mac Os X" again, it would ask for my id and pwd again, and start the 15 hours download another time, as nothing had happened.
By the way, i checked the HD from the utility disk, and about 4 GB are used in the HD, while before the download I had initialized it, so I think Lion was downloaded there. I repeat, I can't startup from the main HD, since it's not available when I turn the computer on and press option.
Sorry for the long message, but I tried to give you the most informations I could provide. If you need other informations, tell me.
Thank you very much for the help, by know I'm stucked on a $2000 machine that has only Safari on it, with the scrolling that is in the wrong way

Not sure what happened, but I think your best bet it to try again.

Having trouble with reading hex from an input file - please help

Hi, I have a txt file with rows of hex, and I need to read each line and add it to an int array. So far I have:
BufferedReader fileIn = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("memory.txt"));
 int count = 0 ;
 String temp = fileIn.readLine();
 int file_in = Integer.parseInt(temp) ;
 while(temp!=null) {
 data[count] = file_in;
 temp = fileIn.readLine();
 file_in = Integer.parseInt(temp,16);// Integer.parseInt() ;
 count++ ; /* increment counter */
 } memory.txt:
4004000
4008000
3FDF4018
4108200
3C104001
FFFFFFE8
4010C6C0
FFFFFFE8
94000000The above code crashes on the third input (my guess is becuase there are letters in and it can't parseInt letters.
I think I need to parse it into an array of chars instead, however I don't know how to get from the string (temp) to the char array.
can anyone help?

ok turns out it's just a null pointer exception on the data[count] line, becuase I've only initialised the first two slots of data. i didn't see it before becase it was just throwing an error and i never printed it out.
here's how I've defined data:
in the class
int[] data;just before the code to input the file data:
for ( int i = 0; i < length; i++ )
 data [ i ] = 0;thinking this shoudl go through all the array and initialise it. but it gives a NullPointerException on the data=0; line.
any ideas?

I am having trouble with my bluetooth skipping while its playing music from my Itunes music...I thought that this was an antiquated problem with the new technology?

I am having trouble with the music from my bluetooth "skipping" on my IPhone 5. I thought that this was an antiquated problem with the new technology. It's very frustrating to purchase all of this music and expect great sound and playability and get "skipping". Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

Does the issue occur when listening to the media using the speaker or wired headphones? If it does, the issue is with the media itself.
If it does not, it's likely a bad connection or interference.

E-Mailing Photos from iPhoto - Having trouble with resolution

I am having trouble with emailing pictures from i-photo. When I email pictures as attachments they end up being low resolution versions and the receiver can not print them. I can not figure out what sort of setting I must have set. Please help.

MMVP
Welcome to the Apple user assistance forums
1 - how are you selecting and attaching the photos?
2 - what is the resolution of the photos in iPhoto?
3 - if you are using the iPhoto e-mail capability (recommended) you select a photo(s) and click mail - there you can choose actual, large, medium or small
4 - this creates an e-mail message in the e-mail client of your choice (iPhoto preferences) - if you are using Apple mail in the lower right hand corner under the e-mail there is a menu where you can set Actual, large, medium or small
Be sure that both selections are set the way you want them - if either is se tto small you will send a small (low resolutin) photo
