How can I import a dvd and do edit in final cut pro ?

any software to convert dvd movie into avi for edit ?

Hi:
If you own the material rights, you can use MPEG Streamclip to reencode to an editable format like DV.
Hope that helps !

  • How to convert my personal DVDs to be edited in Final Cut Pro 7?

    Hi guys,
    I am working on a project that need to edit my personal DVDs in Final Cut Pro 7, but what i need to do first is rip the DVD to a Final Cut Pro 7 compatible format, to which format should i convert the DVD? I am using iSkysoft iMedia Converter for Mac, it has many output formats. It is a little difficult to decide the right one.
    Would you please help? If possible, please tell me the codec/ resolution/ bitrate . thanks in advance!
    Albert

    I understand what format DVDs are. My suggestion is - if you generated these DVDs, you must have the source footage. Why not use that?
    I'd suggest you open the manual and start with the getting started section and work through any tutorials that came with your version. This program is complex and you need a fundamental understanding of more stuff than we can cover in this forum.
    Ken Stone's website has a number of tutorials and is a good source of new user information as is Lyndia.com

  • Can I import projects from the full version of Final Cut Pro X from when I was using the trial version?

    So I recently purchased the full edition of Final Cut Pro X, and was wondering why one of the projects I was working on at the time it expired imported back into FCP without asking me, but the other did not.  I really need to use this file, but it is in the format of .fcpproject, so I really don't understand why I am not able to use it.  It sometimes says when I try to open it that the version of that project was made in an updated version of FCP, or something to that affect, so it cannot be used.  I have no idea why it says this, because as far as I know that is un-true.  Any ideas?
    Edit:  I also don't want to delete the trial yet, a little apprehensive, like maybe I need it.  But I might if it comes to that.  I suppose the time did run out so it is practically worth nothing...

    You do not open fcpproject files. You don't double click or anything else. The files have to be in the correct folder structure in the Final Cut Projects folder and the application opens them automatically. Can you post screen shots of the Final Cut Projects folder and its location.

  • How can I open a project made in 2000 on Final Cut Pro to migrate it to a new version?

    how can I open a project made in late 2000 on Final Cut Pro to migrate it to a new version to finish editing it? files, timeline and unfinished edit are all stored on hard drive since early 2001, with all the original miniDV tapes still in hand

    Do you still have legacy FCP? If you not you need to find someone who will open the project in FCP6.0.6 or later. Export an XML file of the project. Use 7toX to convert it to an XML format that works with FCPX. Import the converted XML file to FCP.

  • HELP!  How can I view a clip frame by frame in final cut pro?

    Hi, does anyone out there know how to view a clip in final cut pro frame by frame. I don't really want to use the jogging function as you cannot see each individual frame just all the frames snapped together. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

  • How can I playback blu-ray .img files generated by Final Cut Pro X?

    When I share a Final Cut Pro X project in Blu-ray and I set the output device as Hard drive (blu-ray), it creates a blu-ray image with a .img extension.
    By the way, the project's clips are AVCHD (.mts extension) and the settings are set to 1080i (1440x1080 25i).
    My question is: can I playback this file without having to burn a blu-ray disc?
    I've been looking for information, and some people seems to playback blu-ray .iso files.
    And: would Compressor 4 solve my problem? (is there anyway in Compressor to create a .iso image or something easier to play?).
    By the way, I do have access to both Windows and Mac computers.
    Thanks in advance,
    Pol

    Thanks for the answer.
    If you own Compressor 4, could you tell me if it includes an option to generate a .iso file instead of a .img?
    (here's information on how to playback a .iso).
    Thanks,

  • How can I export a file that may use in Final Cut Pro?

    Hello friends,
    May I know how to export a file that I can use it Final Cut Pro???

    If you are talking about rendering then just use any production codec that FCP supports. You have access to them all. Use the Render Cue or create a custom preset in the Adobe Media Encoder.
    If you want to do something like dynamic link with FCP, that does not exist. You can save a PPro project as a FCP XML but any PPro effects or PPro settings unique to PPro will not come across. If you turn an After Effects project into a FCP project by going through PPro as was suggested then you will NOT get any of the effects you applied to your composition or any of the animation or anything but the footage In and Out points, opacity, rotation and position because that is all that will be moved into PPro because After Effects plug-ins are not compatible with PPro. If there is a dynamic link to an AE project in your PPro project that will not move to FCP at all. You'll get nothing.
    So the long and short of it is if you want the work that you have done in AE to show up in FCP you must render the project. I use ProRez 444 10 bit for any work I do on FCP. You can make a custom Output Module preset to help speed up the workflow.
    If you are new to AE please read this on rendering: After Effects Help | Basics of rendering and exporting
    If you are really new please go through these three tutorials: Basic Workflow

  • How can I import iMovie HD 6 project files into Final Cut Express HD3?

    Trying to import iMovie HD 6 projects into FCE HD 3 but 2 windows appear:
    Importing XML data
    and below it a
    SAVE window
    If I click SAVE, both windows disappear, a file with nothing in it appears in browser and when try to play it in the viewer, there is just black....
    Is this all because FCE HD 3 won't support iMove HD 6? so I will need to upgrade to FCE HD 4?

    Use File>Import>Files.
    iMovie Projects as a whole do not Import correctly whereas individual clips do but will need the audio rendering to play correctly.

  • How can I create a Time Lapse from clips in FInal Cut Pro?

    Currently have 3hrs of footage from an event....wondering how I can create a time lapse of it all in FCP. I want to make it shortened down to around 4mins if possible. How is this created?

    Try exporting a reference quicktime of your sequence and reimporting it into your project. Drop it in a sequence. Use the Time remap tool (click and hold in the select edit points tool until you see the icon that looks like a clock and choose it). Click and drag the end of your clip until it's at the 4 min mark.
    Andy
    PS: This is for FCP 7. Earlier versions of FCP require use of the speed dialog (CMD+J) or Time Remapping in the Motion Tab of the viewer.

  • If i edit in final cut pro x, how can i create a dvd

    What is the best DVD creator to download to create DVDs  from movies edited in Final Cut Pro X?

    iDVD gets my top vote - it is no longer available from Apple, but still part of the retail iLife 09 or 11 versions available from online resellers. It offers customizable menus/themes which will give your creation a professional look. It encodes/authors and you can burn directly from it.
    Second is Roxio Toast (no customizable menus, but many other features and an excellent burn software).
    I've tried DVD creator and found it to be too simplistic. Then there is Burn (free) - it burns.
    I use iDVD to "create" and Toast to burn.
