    at the end, you say "import preferences", which program are you describing?
    So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
    vs
    using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?
    Is there anything i can do in fcp to make this footage more reliable or safer or more stable as i pull remotely from iphoto?
    All the footage, and all the libraries to all programs, or on a new pegasus 12tb raid 5 setup fyi.

  • Can I import MTS files into Final Cut Express?

    It seems like FCE only reads MOV and MP4 files, and sometimes it doesn't even read those for me. Is there no easy way to import and edit MTS video files?

    If the source files are HD, then use Clipwrap:

    and convert the source files to Apple Intermediate Codec.

  • Can not import MXF files into Final Cut Pro

    I am full of anger and frustration!!! I purchased final cut pro only to find out that it WILL NOT import MXF files. How insane is that? ADOBE - NO PROBLEM. Then I had to go back to YOUR STORE and buy two different file converter applications before I found one that worked. Now FINAL CUT PRO will only import the audio segment of converted files after converting to PRORES in PAVTUBE. Are you BUCKING kidding me? This work flow BLOWS. Why the FELL does this have to be sooooo hard!  I am gone to creative cow and other forums to try to find out why I am sooo stupid that I can't get this simple process sorted out. YOU BUCKING MONEY MACHINE! How many more aps will I have to buy before I can edit CANON XF100 files in Final Cut Pro. BUCK politics! You should make your software with plugins that would allow you to edit without this kind of added step. JUST LIKE ADOBE. I want refunds for my final cut pro purchase. This is BUCKING rediculous. What a waste of time!

    There is definite upside to dragging one's feet on upgrades until necessary and this is a prime example. On a desktop running 10.6, and the XF Utility, FCP 7 L&T works reliably. And like you, that's my workflow for FCPX projects. Running 10,7 on a laptop, the EOS plug-in works well for FCPX imports – no workarounds needed. When I finally get around to updating, I will partition the HD, with one SL partition and the other partition with a later OS. Of course this strategy will work only as long as my hardware holds up.

  • I can't import mpeg files into final cut pro10

    Hi, I have been given a whole load of old home video footage that I want to import into final cut pro to put into a music video. The files play on quicktime but when I go to import it it won't import.
    I've already had this problem with MXF files but these are quicktime so how can I import it. Final Cut Pro 10 seems to not want to import anything that I actually want to use.
    Anyone know what the problem is?
    Thanks
    Tom

    What version of FCP X are you using?
    Also: open one of these files in Quicktime Player, press Cmd-I to open the Movie Inspector, and post a screenshot of that.
    When you say "it won't import", what exactly does happen? Do these files appear dimmed in the Import Window? Or something else happens?

    mpeg streamclip and DVDxDV will convert DVD VOB files into workable DV files.
    Mpeg streamclip is free, and can be found at versiontracker.com
    DVDxDv costs $25, and can be found at dvdxdv.com

  • Can't import mov files into Final Cut Pro

    I can't seem to import some .mov files into FCP.  The codecs showing in "info" for the files are DV/DVCPRO - NTSC, Linear PCM, Timecode.  I have other files which I can import into FCP and they show the exact same codecs in their info page.  I have no trouble opening either in Quicktime.

    What is the origin of these files?  You may want to use QT or Compressor to re-encode them to the same codec.  Possbily they are very old QT versions.  But yes, where did they originate from?

  • How do you import mpeg2 files into final cut express?

    I have recently show my sons christening, and relied on a friend to do ths shooting. One of the tapes unfortunatley has broken, and I have had a second party transfer this footage onto DVD for me. He is also sending the footage through as an MPEG 2 file. Is there anything I can do with this using FCPE?

    Convert the DVD's VOB files into a format that works natively in FCE.  For DVD footage (which is SD), use MPEG Streamclip to do the converting.  Here's a tutorial on using MPEG Streamclip: http://www.secondchairvideo.com/?p=739
    MPEG Streamclip is freeware, but you may need to purchase the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component from Apple if you don't have it already.

  • Can I import .dat files into FInal Cut Pro?

    Hi..I received 2 .dat files which play in Quicktime. They are pieces of 2 movies which were converted from Video and given to me on a cd disc with a wesite.
    I want to edit the movies and also lighten them up, because they is very dark.
    I am wondering if I can do it in FCP? And how would I get them in there, make a duplicate (in order to save these originals) and then do editing and use them both for the website, as a mpeg4 or 3 and also as files for output to cd's? Can I get them out of the .dat file format? I have FCP 4.5.
    Obviously, I know nothing about this. And I have posted this also in QT and iMovie..to see what I can do. Thank you.

    Thank you.
    I will try this.
    I cut a cd on Toast 7 and it plays on my DVD player, but still in the DAT format.
    I was also given this link
    You may want to try this freeware and use it to convert the dat file to a DV Stream which you will be able to open in iMovie, do your editing, and then export or "Share" to a .mov file. Mpeg StreamClip < </div>

    I will try what u have written first, as it seems simplist.
    I also found out that these clips are in PAL format. Will that matter?
    Thanks for the info from Apple. I am in India and will see how I can do this.

  • How can I import vob files into imovie 09?

    how can I import vob files into imovie 09? i have some home movies on dvd that i want to edit.

    You might want to look at this one too.  Very easy to use and it doesn't require the Apple MPEG-2 playback component.

  • How can i import mpeg files into iMovie?

    how can i import mpeg files into iMovie?

    Where are your MPEG stored?
    I have hundreds of old MPEGs stored in my nexternal drive, but unfortunatly i was not able import them into iMovie. I did the following trick: I created a new set of a folder and subfolder and called it "Virtual_CAM/DCIM" and saved it on my desktop. Then went to Disk Utilities>File Menue>New>Disk Image from Folder. Then selected the folder on my desktop and clicked enter. I moved the .dmg file to my external (or just keep it on your desktop). I clicked on the .dmg file. It shoud be visible on the Finder. Open your Imovie and import as you do from your camera.

  • Importing AVI files into Final cut creates a pop

    How can I stop getting a popping sound when I import AVI files into Final Cut. I figured it must be the type of file itself but I cant seem to find a free converter to convert my AVIs into what ever is need (which is what? .mov files?)
    Please help

    The very basics of non-linear editing is to know what video and audio codecs your particular NLE works with natively. FCP works with many video codecs but only a few audio codecs. Typically it works best with AIFF at 48khz, 16 bit.
    You can find out all the various native codecs and formats in the User's Manual, Help Files or by looking through the Easy Setup list.
    FWIW, both AVI and MOV are not really codecs at all; they are both merely containers that could contain video and audio made from any number of codecs. So saying you have an AVI file or a MOV file is kind of like saying you have a car ... it doesn't really tell anyone much at all.
    Both QuickTime Pro and Compressor (which you most likely already have installed) should be able to convert to a native codec for use in FCP.

    Um, can you "import" it?  You can "install" them, but only the ones made for FCP 7 on Leopard.

  • Importing FCE4 projects into Final Cut Studio

    I have the opportunity to purchase Final Cut studio with motion 2 Live Type media 2 DVD Studio pro 4. Since I have projects created in FCE 4 would I be able to bring those projects into Final Cut Studio with out a problem?

    Well I am finding more and more info It is Final Cut Pro Studio 5.1 not the "older" version I though it was. Am I to assume the FCE Projects are not transferrable to Version 5.1?

  • How can I import .mov file into dvd studio pro?

    Hi,
    I have a .mov file and want to but a dvd with menu and chapters. But when I try to import the .mov file into dvd studio pro it says Incompatible format. How can I import my .mov file in to dvd studio pro?

    Two ways…
    Transcode into a codec like Pro Res, import into DVDSP and let it do the encoding.
    Or better yet:
    Import into Compressor, choose a DVD preset and let Compressor encode. It will make two files, separate video and audio files. Import those into DVDSP.
    Good luck.
