  I have a Sony HVR-V1P, can i successfully capture and edit with Final Cut Pro X

My HVR-A1U was able to capture just fine.  The only issue I had is that it has mroe frequently than FCP 7 ever did find Timecode breaks and split my clip apart.  I never had breaks before, so while it is possible I had them on this latest tape, I think X is just more picky.  I mean heck, it found three in a one minute timeframe.  My A1U worked with X without me needing to adjsut any settings form how I had it setup for 7.

  • Can I use a blue screen with Final Cut Pro X?

    Hi, I am at a school that uses Macbooks and has just purchased a blue screen (with lighting).  I am new at chromakey / blue screening.  I know that you can use iMovie for green screens, but could somebody please tell me what is a good software to use for a blue screen?  Does Final Cut Pro X work with blue screens?
    If anyone has any advice I would be very grateful!!
    Thanks,
    From Michelle.

    The keyer effect in FCPX works very well with blue screen. Open effects browser and look for Keyer. When you add it to your blue screen clip it will automatically pick up the blue screen and key it out. You also have several controls to fine tune the edges etc.

  • Can I use motion 5 and Compressor with Final Cut Pro 7?

    Hi, Guys and Girls:
    After reading a lot about the new Final Cut X I decided not to buy it. I´m not gonna say anything about it, pretty much everything has been said so there´s no point in being redundant about it.
    So my question is this:
    Can I use the new version of Motion and Compressor with the old Final Cut Pro 7?
    I heard the new version of Motion is nice, not so sure about the new Compressor but any improvement would be nice.
    Thanks in advance.
    Daniel Sametz.

    Anyone?

  • TS1846 I have some troubles recently with Final Cut Pro 7 and would like to remove my preferences. I can't find any "com.apple.finalcutpro.plist" file from the Preferences folder but I do have some preferences.  So, where could be the file ?

  • I updated to yosemite os and was in the middle of a project with final cut pro 10.  Now it says final cut pro is incompatible.  How can I access my project and/or update final cut?

    I updated to yosemite os and was in the middle of a project with final cut pro 10.  Now it says final cut pro is incompatible.  How can I access my project and/or update final cut?

    There is this offer of a trial version FC Pro X with 30 day runtime:
    http://www.apple.com/final-cut-pro/trial/
    Too bad you didn't have a complete backup that could run the previous OS X
    and then you could resume using an earlier Final Cut Pro (10) or (7) since a
    clone would have been a means toward that position.
    http://www.apple.com/support/finalcutpro/
    http://www.apple.com/support/pro-apps/
    This appears to be another good reason to check out all the reasons why one
    would want or need to upgrade a working OS X version, since these kinds of
    events are known to happen as a direct result.
    Sorry to not have an answer to this, other than try & use the Trial version...
    Or see if someone at Apple sales/support can field your issue w/ an answer.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • What is my best hardware/software to convert vhs to digital so I can edit in Final Cut Pro X

    What is my best hardware/software to convert vhs to digital so I can edit in Final Cut Pro X?  Wondering if there is a solution under 100.00 or do I need to think a bit more. Thank you.

    Have been doing this for some time, my setup:
    I use an ancient "Symphonic" VCR player connected to an Elgato Eyetv Hybrid USB dongle.  That plugs into my G5 Mac, 10.5.8, which runs Eyetv software v. 2.5.3.
    Recording is dead simple after fiddling around a bit with software settings for channel, etc.  Start the player, hit "record" on the software and wait for the end.
    The recording is saved in some obscure ".eyetv" format with file size about 4 GB per hour of recording.  The software has export to a variety of formats including QT Movie which results in a substantially larger file size.
    Quality?  Well, it's viewable and usable for archive purposes.  I'm fine with it but more discriminating folks may want something better.  I end up burning the video on a DVD using iDVD and that's not the greatest anyway.
    There are various Elgato units available, and the Eyetv Hybrid seems to run bout $130.
    Hope that helps.

  • 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.

  • I have a Benq M22 HD cam. Is it compatible with Final Cut pro 7?

    I have a Benq M22 HD cam. Is it compatible with Final Cut pro 7?

    Hi Nick, thanks for your help, Im rather new at editing and FCP. I did everything as it said to do in the MPEG Streamclip download tutorial, but when it finished, I tried to open the .mov files and it was just sound but no picture, just black.
    Now, another thing, the .mov converted files where saved into mi SD card after the program was done (is that ok, or should they have been saved somewhere else too?)  then i tried to put them into my FCP by using the Log and Transfer and when I selected that it gave me this message: "100MEDIA" contains unsupported media or has an invalid directory structure. Please choose a folder whose directory structure matches supported media.
    Help please!! I know that these problems are probably from my lack of knowledge on the program and the whole thing.. but im working on it!!
    Thanks!!

  • Can you burn multible movies on one bluray dvd disc with final cut pro

    how to burn two completed quick time movies to blu ray dvd with final cut pro? Ive tried but wont play

    Mark,
    Welcome to the wild and wacky world of DVD's and Mpeg2!
    Here are a few things that might help.
    it seems to want everything as a QT. This presents size limitations.
    Not really, iDVD simply takes the QT files that you feed it and uses its own compressor to encode them to mpeg2 files. As long as your source material is not over 2 hours iDVD can handle it.
    I'm planning to export from fcp using Compressor in the hope of fitting everything onto one disc
    You can do this, but you might find it simpler to simply export a QT reference movie from FCP and drag that into DVDSP. DVDSP will then use compressor to create the mpeg2 files that you need. I say this because some find compressor a little intimidating at first. (I know that I still do.)
    Now, go find the manuals that came with your software and start reading, DVDSP is a powerful program and the manuals are the best place to start.
    Good luck!

  • Where can I download Christmas generators / title cards compatible with Final Cut Pro X?

    I'm looking for title cards with holiday themes, snow, Christams trees, ornaments and the like. Where can I find these? A quick search online I found site that said they weren't compatible with Final Cut Pro X.
    I went to rippletraining.com and after downloading got this error message...and yet I am unable to find any applications in the App store that meet my needs.

    you haven't tried!
    you managed to handle FCPX, a highly professional edit-tool.
    What I suggested, is just 'basics':
    compose a few elements.
    Get inspired by other videos you notice around.
    To animate 'elements', use keyframes.
    To apply 'overlays', green-screen/color-key is a basic procedure…
    To prep stills, a designated pic-processor is of fundamental need… although, even MacOS built-in Preview.app allows creation of 'knock-outs'/transparency… in case, you're shy to invest a few $$ for Pixelmator.
    It looks maybe complicated - it isn't!
    Don't try it first time for some serious projcect… but creating your very own Xmas-scenery is a lot of fun… plus, you learn a lot about FCPX and its many hidden gems…
    Final word:
    Catch some nice, own pics with your cam! … snowy trees, 4 candles and some cookies, a frozen window, illuminations in the streets, that crazy neighbour with his 50.000Watts of garden decorations .... Just add a charming title - done. Simplicity rules!  …
    Merry Chistmas!

  • I can't not transfer files in 'log and transfer' of Final Cut Pro. I recorded it in SD card using Nikon D7000 and JVC GY-HM100U.

    I can't not transfer files in 'log and transfer' of Final Cut Pro. I recorded it in SD card using Nikon D7000 and JVC GY-HM100U.
    I think I need plug-in.  Please let me know.  Thank you.

    Well, the Nikon D7000 footage cannot be logged and transferred.  There is no plugin for that like there is for the Canon cameras. Nikon never developed one.  So the footage from that camera will need to be converted with Compressor or MPEG STREAMCLIP.
    The JVC should work...what version of FCP are you on?
