How To Down Convert FCPRO7 project to FCPRO6 project

A friend of mine is having some problems with FCPRO7 and he needs to finish a job ASAP.
Is there any way to use a FCPRO7 project in a FCPRO6?
down convert it? or export the timeline contents and use in a new FCPRO6 project?
Thanks in advance.

Use the Media Manager (in the File menu) to copy all the media to a single folder on an external drive.
This will also create a project file linked to the copied media.
Use that to generate an XML Version 4 file: Export > XML.
Connect the external drive to the FCP 6 system.
Import the XML into FCP 6, double click the Sequence in the Browser and follow the on screen instructions.

  • How to down convert iMovie HD imported in Full 1920x1080 to Large 960x540

    I have a Canon HD camcorder which captures video in 1080i format. I have been downloading my movies in iMovie using the Full - 1920x1080 option instead of the Large - 960x540 option.
    But now I am running out of space!!! Also I don't see a big difference in quality between the two formats.
    I want to down convert all my downloaded movies to Large - 960x540 format ... Can someone tell me how to do that in iMovie. I have already deleted the movies in my camcorder. Help!

    I don't think that what you're trying to do is possible without reimporting the footage, which I understand is deleted. You can down convert to 540 on export without a problem from 1080, but you original footage will remain 1080.
    The good news is external HDs are really cheap these days, so you can pick one up to store your footage with a very minor investment. Now you can switch to importing 540 as Apple recommends and you'll save a ton of space, and processing time, moving forward. As you've already seen, the quality difference is very minimal versus the space and processing cost.

  • How can I convert an iMovie 9 project down to iMovie 8?

    Student started movie project in school in iMovie 8.  Took project home to work on it, but had iMovie 9 at home.  Now, he can't read his movie project on computer at school (in iMovie 8).  Any "Save as" or down-converter? 

    It is not possible to downconvert. You can forward-convert to a later version because the later version has all the old features plus some new ones. You cannot backward convert, because once you convert, the project file now has the new data structures that enable the new features. The old version does not know what to do with these.
    If he was running Time Machine, he could go back to the iMovie 08 version and just lose any edits he made under iMovie 09. Otherwise, he should just finish up the project at home.

  • FM down converter in LabView. How?

    Hello NI Developers!
    I have Frequency Modulated (FM) Signal, with carrier frequency 1000Hz and message signal frequency 20Hz. I want to downconvert FM signal frequency to 200Hz. I searched through the forum and google and didn't find anything where would be at least algorithms or Math equations. How to downconvert FM signal?
    The aim is down convert signal to low frequencies where it is easier to filter from noise.
    Thank you in advance! 
    Solved!

    Hello,
    You could try using the Scale Delta t VI (Functions >> Programming >> Waveform). As the help says, "Multiplies the delta t component of the waveform by the specified scale
    factor. Generally, this lengthens or shortens the sample rate of the
    waveform." 
    You could also take a look at the  Resample Waveforms (continuous) VI (Functions >> Signal Processing >> Waveform Conditioning. 
    I hope this helps.

  • How can I convert .cp projects from Captivate 2 to .cptx projects for Captivate 7?

    How can I convert .cp projects from Captivate 2 to .cptx projects for Captivate 7? Do I have to use some other version between 2 and 7 to do this?

    I doubt you are going to be able to find all those previous versions and the time it would take to install, open the project, verify it, and everything in between (and without license keys, they would only be saved from trial versions which would be an issue), it seems it would be better just to start with Cp7 and put the effort into that.
    Completely off topic, one of the things I like about Authorware is that Macromedia provided previous versions that would allow you to open up and save the projects to get to version 7. It was a nice little touch they provided for developers. I don't believe that Adobe does this for Captivate though.

  • How to convert keystore (from native android project) to .p12 to use with AIR project?

    Due to the advancements with adobe AIR, I'm really excited to be finishing up a HUGE update of an old project that was originally made with native android.
    But, i've hit a brick wall with 2 issues, and it would be terrible if all the work i've done in AIR was for nothing...
    First, how do I convert the keystore I previously used (from native android project) to .p12 to use with AIR project? (on a mac)
    Second, how do I remove the "air." that gets automatically appended onto the front my android package name? I plan to use a captive runtime, so it's not really needed at all, and I can't upload it like this as an update because it will think it's a different app.
    Please help so I can continue using air for all my projects from now on!

    Thanks for the reply!
    So I'm going through this guide..
    http://helpx.adobe.com/air/kb/opt-out-air-application-analytics.html
    I followed all the steps, made all the adjustments to the androidmanifest.xml like it asks.
    But when i get to the stap that says
    "Run the following command to create the resource file for the updated AndroidManifest.xml:"
    I run this..
        "/Users/brybam/Documents/eclipse/android-sdk-mac_x86/platform-tools/aapt" package -f -M AndroidManifest.xml -F resources.arsc -I "/Users/brybam/Documents/eclipse/android-sdk-mac_x86/platforms/android-8/android.jar" -S ./res
    But I keep getting the same error
        ./res/layout/expandable_chooser_row.xml:1: error: Error parsing XML: not well-formed (invalid token)
        ./res/layout/expandable_multiple_chooser_row.xml:1: error: Error parsing XML: not well-formed (invalid token)
        ./res/layout/main.xml:1: error: Error parsing XML: not well-formed (invalid token)
        ./res/layout/multiple_file_selection_panel.xml:1: error: Error parsing XML: not well-formed (invalid token)
        ./res/layout/ssl_certificate_warning.xml:1: error: Error parsing XML: not well-formed (invalid token)
    The guide doesn't say anything about these xml files, and im not sure what to do with these ore how to handle them.
    If i go into the res/layout folder, and just delete these (i know theyre for my layout and i need them, but im just saying i deleted them for the sake of a test)
    I was able to get through the rest of the steps in the guide fine, make an apk, and put it on my phone...only to find out the app will crash the moment you try to run it.
    So my question is, does anyone with any experience re-packaging an android application know how I might get around this or take care of the errors with the xml files in the layout folder?
    Thanks!!
    EDIT to note something i've tried:
    So, earlier in the guide they have me use thing thing called the "AXMLPrinter2.jar" to make the AndroidManifest.xml readable so i can edit it.
    I run something like this:
        java -jar "/Users/brybam/Desktop/repackage/AXMLPrinter2.jar" AndroidManifest.xml > AndroidManifest.xml.bk
    This makes a new file "AndroidManifest.xml.bk" and i can edit that.
    So, I was thinking with all of these layout xml files, maybe I could run this "AXMLPrinter2.jar" on them and then edit them. Because right now if you open them they're not human readable, and its hard for me to work on them if they're not...
    But when i do the same command I did on the AndroidManifest.xml i just get blank files...
    I tried
        java -jar "/Users/brybam/Desktop/repackage/AXMLPrinter2.jar" main.xml > main.xml.bk
    Just get a blank file.
    So, i think the issue might be with these just not being re-formatted to human readable.

  • Down convert a project.

    I up converted a cc project to 2014 version and it has never worked properly, continuos freezing and crashing, is it possible to down convert the project  so I can work in a more stable software?

    Thanks for the response everyone.
      I had managed to stumble on editing in the 2014 project version for two days, so the option of going back to the cc project version was not an option (I did test the xml idea, and yes, only the basic edit re-links.)
    The project has now finished finally, but during all the problems we tried many software/ hardware troubleshooting options - new user, more memory, opening project in another 2014 project, cleaning the cache, affecting the library, un-install-re install, and Adobe took control of the computer twice!
        We can only assume the problem derived from up-converting the project to the new 2014 software as every other option was evaluated.

    h264.mp4 is actually the most common 'standard' (4000 video 'standards' aaaaand counting)
    mp4 is indeed universal (Mac, Windows, Linux), and since YouTube, the h264 codec has a good installed base .....
    you can bump into probs only when it comes to sheer amount of data:
    for instance cheap 'digital frames' are sortof over-whelmed, if you try to playback 720/30p in high quality.
    I'm not familiar with 21st cent devices as SmartBoards ... again, it could happen, you have to reduce resolution/fps/bit-rate to avoid clutter&stutter in the video.
    I'm using such encoded files successfully on Playstation3, WD HD TV or flatscreenTVs with integrated usb-connection (via stick), etc
    imho, it should work welll .............. < fingers-crossed >

  • When I convert a trailer to a project and add content, how can I get the music track to repeat longer

    Hey fellow Apple Geniuses - I just got the latest iMovie11 so excited for the new trailer feature, only to discover that these teenie weenie movie trailers are not near long enough for my taste, however I do like the cool transitions and layouts, so I discovered that I can convert the trailer to a project and then add more content, which I am doing right now. I need help though with the audio track... Does anyone know the secret to getting the 43 second music track to repeat, since this particular track (Friendship2) is not showing as an option in my iTunes/iMovie licensed audio to be able to keep dragging more into the movie? Thanks a million!

    Hey Tom - Thanks a million truly! Just did what you said and it worked so smoothly! Totally cool! This was the last piece to finish the movie. I appreciate and value your quick response! Happy camper here!

  • How to make a DVD 5 from a project?

    I have a FCP project just short of 3 hours long and my client has demanded a DVD 5 preview copy with burnt in timecode. Can anyone advise on how I can do this?

    You said,"I use a DVD recorder to create BITC copies directly from FCP's Timeline."
    I used to make a master on my Sony DVD HD deck and then down convert it onto a DVD recorder, with the time code display on.A bit long winded. I didn't realise you could go from the time line, are you simply playing it back ie pressing the "Space bar"? and if so how do you burn in the time code?
    I think I'd rather try and burn a DVD on the computer, I'll give it a go.

  • Down converting HD to help workflow

    Hi All
    I have been given many quicktime animation files to cut into a sequence in Final Cut Pro 6. The only problem is that they are 1920 x 1280 in size and are in Blackmagic 8 bit!!!! My computer cant handle the files, they are huge.
    What steps should i now take to get them into a workable file type to edit with easily, and how would I go about when finished editing the piece, getting the online back to the original 1920 x1280 qt files provided originally. The files are also animations at 24fps.
    Someone has suggested converting the original QT's from black magic to photo Jpeg using quicktime pro or compressor?
    Much thanks to anyone who responds!!!

    Hi Andy
    Thanks so much for your response, media manager eh? Ive never used that before. Ive been looking for tutorials on the net but no luck. I did a test by high lighting a clip in my bin, chose Media Manager. Then I selected Ofline and chose the file to be photo Jpeg offline HD 24 fps, then when i clicked ok it asked me to save a new project? then when i save the clip is sitting there in a new projact, but its still uncompressed 1828 x 988? I would have assumed it would down convert it to the photo jpeg codec? and when i play it on the timeline it looks really pixilated... ha
    am I completly missing the point of Media Manager?
    Like I said, I have no idea about it - I come from Avid

  • Can't convert Flex Mobile project to desktop project

    I'm using the Flash Builder 4.6 trial, and I'm very new to flex development. I've been asked to convert an existing Flex Mobile project (appears to have been developed in Flash Builder 4.5) into an AIR desktop app.
    The project imported without complaint. However, the Add/Change Project Type > Convert to Flex Desktop Project menu item is disabled.
    I created a blank Flex Mobile project, then a blank Flex web project, then a blank ActionScript project. It's greyed out for those, too. I checked with the projects closed and open; the rest of the items on that submenu are enabled for all projects when closed.
    Is this feature disabled in the trial version?  Is something else going on?

    Clearly the device from verizon works, I would try to contact a computer tech to repair your computer
    Really it should be as simple as turn on, connect, go. If it isn't there is a break down somewhere in that computer

  • How can I move a photo from one project to another

    How can I move a photo from one project to another without creating a duplicate so I have the same photo in two projects.
    I seems to me in the past when I moved the photo from project 1 to project 2, I would get a number showing the # of photos being moved and you could drag and drop in the 2nd folder and the photos would disappear from project 1 and show up in project 2. is there a setting I am missing.  Now when I drag and drop the photo no red # shows up and the photo stays in project 1 and also shows up in project 2 apparently creating a duplicate.
    Any suggestion?

    Now when I drag and drop the photo no red # shows up and the photo stays in project 1 and also shows up in project 2 apparently creating a duplicate.
    The projects are the basic containers.  Each image and all its versions are in exactly one project.
    You can use an image in many albums, without duplicating it, also in many products like books, screensaver, slideshows.  But the projects are the basic structure of the library and you cannot have the same image in two different project, without duplicating it by storing the same original image files twice. Use albums to organize your library thematically.
    Sorry, I misread your question.   Dragging an image file between projects should move the image and all its versions to the other project.  Aperture should only duplicate the image, if you hold down the alt/options key while dragging and move the image otherwise.
    Which Aperture version are you using? And which MacOS X version?  Is your profile signature "MacBook Pro with Retina display, Mac OS 9.2.x, Aperture 3.5.1" still valid?
    In Aperture 3.6 on MacOS X 10.10.1 dragging between projects is still working as expected:
