How to edit Digibeta on FCP?

I have recently shot a film on *Super 16* & transferred it to digibeta to avoid quality loss.
I just would like to know *how to get it into final cut, make it ready to edit? & output it back to digibeta?*
With normal DV, i just convert it to a quicktime file, then edit & output to DVD. but for this one i would like to output to Digibeta Again for screenings.
Thx,
James

You need a Digi Beta deck and one of these:http://aja.com/html/products_Io.html

How to edit Digibeta

Hi --
If I have some Digibeta tapes that I want to edit, what's the best way for me to do that?
As I understand Final Cut Studio 2 will edit anything. So is it just a case of getting the footage into the machine at Digibeta resolution?
I would really really appreciate if anybody (who has a minute) could give me an idea of how the workflow might be.
Thanks!

Misleading response Brian. DV and DV50 over firewire have a limitation of 2 audio tracks. Firewire itself is just type of high-speed interface. With DVCProHD over Firewire you can have up to 8 channels of audio. Using other devices, such an BOBs and audio interfaces, you can have far more than two channels of audio.
In order to capture channels 3&4 over Firewire for DV (the Firewire out on a J30 is used to downconvert to DV) you need to capture in two passes. On the first pass you capture video and audio 1&2, then you change the audio input in the capture settings to "Second 2 channels" and capture audio only, finally you merge the two clips together to create one clip that contains video and 4 channels of audio. It is much easier to just capture through a capture card or BOB if you need more than 2 channels of audio.

How to edit Mpeg-2 Video in FCP...

Hello,
I have an QT Movie file in Mpeg-2 format that's slated to go onto a DVD (file extension is .m2v)
How can I edit this in FCP? I basically need to replace a couple of frames in the middle. I guess I'd have to cut out a 15frame segment (this is the length of the GOP?), and insert another segment.
If this is correct, what Seq. Preset should I use for this? And when I'm done, how do I write it out so as to get the .m2v extension?
Thanks in advance for your help
Regards,
Rajnesh

I've been told that Canopus' Edius program handles mpeg2 well. Beyond that, most NLE's are going to have issues with it. As mentioned, converting your video to quicktime DV is your best bet.
Streamclip is usually most often recommended. I've also used ffmpegx which relies on an open source mpeg2 encoder (as opposed to Quicktime's "pay-us-20-bucks" mpeg2 encoder). However, I think ffmpegx only outputs in muxed .dv stream files, so you'll need to do a quick audio render after importing.

How to edit video & exprt in same original settings & lose no quality

I have always wondered how to do this.
How can i say, for example, caoture video in DV PAL, bring it into FCP, cut it up, and export it back to DV PAL in the same exact quality that it began. Is it as simple as choosing the same settings for sequence and render settings?
Also, if i did a screen capture and used the codec Sorenso Video 3, but then wanted to edit it in fcp, how would i edit it and export it so that no qaulity is lost?
I just want to know if exporting it in the same original settings effects the video, because i know that if you get a 192 bitrate mp3 track and export it using 192 bitrate setting, it recompresses the mp3 again. Is this the same for video.
If so, how do i got about changing contents in a video, but then export it at the same settings as the previous without losing quality
Thank guys

Doan
You already told me that dv is fine, does this go with all the other formats.
Sure!
Also just something quickly of topic a bit. If i export say a .mov on the mac, and say in particular sorenso video 3, are these compatiable on a windows. Because i remeber one time when i capture my dv pal footage on fcp, i couldn't open it on a pc at all.
I found the following info in Sorenson Site. Look at the Playback requirements in the end of that page.
HERE IS THE LINK

Hope that helps !

I'm sure there's more great info out there, but if you search this forum for 'pulldown' or 'film editing' or some such, you'll find tons of info in this forum.
The first thread I listed (with the book suggested by David Slater) has multiple links to sites that will give you tons of info.

How to edit a PDF in Photoshop CS4

Hi there,
I'm having some real trouble trying to figure out how to edit a PDF in photoshop cs4. So i need to edit/change text, move things around, that type of thing.
I work in Windows.
Could someone give me a bit a low down on how this is done?
Much appreciated,
Victoria

You can open them but you will totally rasterize everything.
PDFs are not intended to be edited. They are a final format but as
mentioned you can use Acrobat for some minor text edits or use it to
extract the images to Photoshop for further editing.

How to edit JVC/Panasonic/Canon .mod video in Windows Movie Maker then upload to YouTube for sharing

Quick View:
Part 1: How to import .mod video to Windows Movie Maker
Part 2: How to edit the video with Windows Movie Maker
Part 3: How to upload your video to YouTube
Know More:
1. Which Camcorders record video in .MOD type?
2. What file types are supported by Windows Movie Maker?
3. What file types are supported by YouTube?
Part 1: How to import .mod video to Windows Movie Maker
Step 1: Load files
First copy the MOD file from your video camera to your hard drive, then download, install and run MOD Converter, click the "Add Files" button to browse your computer hard disc and load the MOD/TOD video files you want to convert to the program.
Step 2: Output Setting
In the bottom of the main interface, select an output format supported by Windows Movie Maker for each video file and specify a directory on your computer to save the output files.
Step 3: Start convert
Click "Start" button on right bottom of the main interface, you are allowed to start conversion.
Step 4: Import converted video to Windows Movie Maker
Click on "File". Then click on "Import". A window will appear. In the window, navigate to the video clip you converted just now. Then double click on the file. You'll see the icon for the file in your Windows Movie Maker "Collections".
Part 2: How to edit the video with Windows Movie Maker
Step 1: Add transitions and special effects
In the Movie Tasks pane, under Edit Movie, click View video transitions.
Preview transitions by double-clicking them and watching the Preview Monitor. Once you've found a transition you like, drag it from the Video Transitions pane, under Edit Movie pane to the box between two of your clips. This inserts the transition between the two clips.
Step 2: Add titles and credits
If you want to add a title before, after, or on top of a clip, click the clip on the storyboard or timeline.
In the Movie Tasks pane, under Edit Movie, click Make titles or credits.
Step 3: Add Music
In the Movie Tasks pane in Movie Maker, under Capture Video, click Import audio or music.
In the Import File dialog box, click the name of the song you want to use in the background. Then click Import. This adds your song to your collection but does not add it to your video. Drag the song from the collection to the video clip where you want the music to start playing.
Step 4: Add narration
If you have a desktop computer, connect a microphone. Microphones are available from most electronics stores. If you have a portable computer, you can use the built-in microphone. However, you will get a better-quality recording if you connect an external microphone. In Movie Maker, click the Tools menu, and then click Narrate Timeline. On the timeline, click the clip you want to narrate. You can narrate clips one at a time, or you can narrate the entire movie all at once. If you narrate individual clips, you can rearrange them later and keep your narration synchronized. If the narration is too loud or too soft in comparison to the movie, right-click the narration on your timeline, and then click Volume.
Step 5: To save your movie to your computer
In the Movie Tasks pane, under Finish Movie, click Save to my computer.
The Save Movie Wizard appears. On the Save Movie File page, type a name for your movie. You can also choose a folder to save it in by clicking the Browse button, but My Videos (the default) is usually the best place to save your movie. Then click Next. On the Movie Setting page, click Next to accept the default setting of Best quality for playback on my computer.
Movie Maker saves your movie, which might take several minutes. On the Completing the Save Movie Wizard page, click Finish. If Play movie when I click Finish was selected (it is selected by default), the movie will automatically play in Windows Media Player. Now you can watch your videos anytime by opening your My Videos folder and double-clicking your movie.
Part 3: How to upload my video to YouTube
A video file should meet the following requirements so that it can be uploaded to YouTube site.
1. In an acceptable format: WMV, MPEG4, MOV, AVI and MPEG.
2. Video length is shorter 10 minutes.

Step 2: Type in the information of your video file, including Title, Description, Category and tags. To increase the chances that your video can be easily found, you should put as much information as possible.
Step 3: Set this video to be public or private.
Step 4: Click the "Upload a video" button. When you see the next window, click the "Browse" button to select the video file you want to upload. Then click the "Upload Video" button to upload it. After the upload is finished, you will see the completion page. See the figure below:

How to edit a file

Ok I probably realise that I've missed something in the literature on installing arch somewhere along the way, but I've spent the last 3 hours trying to find how get past this stage to no avail.
I've managed to realise I have a dhcp connection.
For DHCP IP
For this option, you need the dhcpcd package (already available on most installations). To make use of it, edit /etc/rc.conf like this:
eth0="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(eth0)
ROUTES=(!gateway)
but when i type "edit /etc/rc.conf" I get a colon
I presume I'm in some kind of editor, but I can't see what I'm supposed to change and what commands to use inside the editor.
Any help gratefully received

bzzzz Arch is for competent Linux users - not knowing how to edit a file suggests that you do not fall into this category. If you wish to persevere and use Arch as a learning tool, then you need to be aware that you will be required to do most of the work yourself.
See the wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/FA … se_Arch.3F

How to edit multiple regions in one Piano Roll window

I edit multiple regions in one Piano Roll window at the same time. (It is very handy way of editing especially in huge orchestra projects.)
I can see midi contents of all selected regions in Piano Roll at the same time.
1) But how to choose certain one region of many selected to edit it?
2) And how to edit all at once?
Hope the questions are clear enough.
Thanks.
Dmitriy.
iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) 2,7 GHz Intel Core i5. 16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3.
OS X 10.10.2

First of all, the Piano Roll has two mechansim, of what it is displaying.
Selected Track: This displays all the Regions that you select in the Tracks Window
One Track: Selecting one Region in the Track Area displays all the Regions of tha tTrack in the Piano Roll. If you select multiple Regions in the Tracks Window, then the last selected Regions counts.
Whatever Regions are now displayed in the Piano Roll Editor can be edited. Select the MIDI Events and apply the command.
You can also apply edits directly to the selected Regions in the Tracks Window.
I explain all those little details in my graphically enhanced manuals ("Logic Pro X - How it Works")
One thing to be clear about:
Tracks Window: Any edit is applied to the selected Regions
Piano Roll Editor: Ay edit is applied to the selected Events
Hope that helps
