Integration between FCPX and Motion ?

How do I move from/to the two softwares to edit a clip already in my timeline and have it back once edited ?
Thanks

You create in Motion, publish it as a Final Cut Generator. It shows up in the Generators palette in FCP X. You then edit it in Motion by right-clicking on the generator and selecting Open In Motion. You do your edit in Motion, save it, go back to FCP X, drag the generator over the existing one in the timeline to replace. I have no clue why it just doesn't update it in the timeline for you.
It's funny because the integration of FCP X and Motion 5 is way more advanced than After Effects and Premiere Pro because of rigging and publishing (very powerful stuff) but it doesn't do true roundtripping.

what I need is some "connection", when I edit in motion I want to see the updated files in my fcpx timeline, just like premiere and after effects... I think that's not possible

  • Best way to move files between FCPX and Motion?

    What is the best protocol for bringing files back and forth between Motion and FCPX?
    How do I save out from Motion for import to FCP? Is it with Templates?
    Whats the drill?
    I have looked at both the helps and am coming up short.
    Thanks.

    If you're simply working in generic Motion project, ProRes 422 Quicktime files are the best format for going back and forth.
    If you want to save a Motion project to use as a template in FCP X, it has to be one of the template Motion project types.  Title, Generator, Effect, Transition.  You would select these from the Template Browser that opens first when Motion is initially launched.
    If you want to start creating templates, I stronly recommend Ripple Training's "Rigging and Publising" video course for Motion 5.

  • How do i transfer videos between FCPX and Motion 5?

    there is no "Send To" option. The only option i have is under "Share" and it is "Send to Compressor"

    Basically, the only work-around is to create a new project containing the exact clip (or section of a clip) you want to "send" to motion, export that project (to quicktime), then open that exported .mov in motion. Do whatever you want to do to it. Then, export the motion project to quicktime. Finally add that result to your FCPX event/timeline where you want it.
    We can only hope that Apple will add back the "Send to Motion" feature and rectify this glaring inadequacy.

  • Fonts get switched between FCPX and Compressor

    I edit my video, make some simple intro and outro titles with specific fonts (Gill Sans, Adobe Garamond Pro) and although the fonts look fine in Final Cut Pro X when I send the video to Compressor 4 FCPX swaps out the fonts. It's driving me nuts.
    I've run Font Book and verified the fonts and they pass. I've done the share to Compressor twice and both times it swapped out the fonts, each time for different fonts.
    Anyone have this problem or have a solution?
    The video I'm editing hasn't been brought in and optimized, it's H.264 video in place, no audio. Very frustrating.
    Here's a link to the video, you can see three different types of fonts due to the fonts being lost between FCPX and C4. http://www.hawaii247.com/?p=56608

    I spoke with Apple Tech support, the first line told me if I had Adobe CS 5 installed on my system it would break the fonts, and suggested I create a new user, install fcpx under that user, and do my editing from there.  I asked to have the case escalated.
    The second line tech support indicated they have had no reports of this issue, however he was able to duplicate the problem 100% of the time using his "clean system" running Snow Leopard. He said he woulde further escalate the bug to the engineers.
    As as work around he suggested I creat all titles in motion (alpha chanel only) and then bring into fcpx as a .mov file. Great, I only have a few hundred titles..
    I suggest every user that is experiancing this either make a bug report via FCPX or call apple tech support and report it, otherwise it might be way down on the list of fixes.
    So it is a bug, and has nothing to do with fonts, prefs, or Adobe products.

  • Is it a Bug? Integration between Dreamweaver and Fireworks is broken in somewhere?

    I can not upload images related my topic here but you can see
    it in the same topic at
    http://www.fireworksguruforum.com/index.php?showtopic=14282
    I use CS3 Suite. It is a big trouble for me in working on
    real pages. Integration is broken in somewhere else and after that
    point it becomes impossible to work on Fireworks through
    Dreamweaver.
    I've made test to show this trouble and I narrowed the
    problem to the pictures as shown in the figures below,
    1) In figure one I am creating a completely new Fireworks
    file as arrow.png with two frames and one slice in it. After I am
    saving it as .png I am exporting it as .html with images in /images
    subfolder.
    2) After saving and closing the file in Fireworks, in figure
    two, I am opening the html in Dreamweaver and changing the page
    properties by writing zeros to page margins and by changing the
    default font.
    -----I guess in this point something happens which breaks the
    integration between FW and DW--------because;
    3) In figure three I am opening the .png through Dreamweaver
    (by "Edit") and changes the place and size of the slice a little
    bit
    4) When I press Done in Fireworks I see this picture in
    figure four in Dreamweaver which shows integration between FW and
    DW about table structure is broken. (In this point if I add any
    behaviur to the slice DW doesn't recognize it, or any other change
    in FW can not be recognized by DW)
    5) In order to show this broken integration in table
    sturucture, I am putting a new slice to png when Editing from DW in
    FW.
    6) When I click on Done in DW I see this picture on the
    figure six. Beacuse FW doesn't have any effect on html's table
    structure code.

    I can reproduce your results, but I don't consider this a
    bug; just a
    limitation of Roundtrip editing.
    You can't add or change slices without re-exporting the html
    from
    Fireworks. Roundtrip is for image editing, not for altering
    the table
    structure. If I edit, and re-export, my table remains intact.
    If you want to edit the slices and resulting html, open the
    PNG file
    independently of Dreamweaver, change your slices and images
    and then
    choose File > Update HTML (this option is not available
    when in
    Roundtrip mode). FW will ask you to locate the html file.
    When located,
    you will have the options of
    Replace Images and Their HTML - replaces the previous
    Fireworks HTML.
    Update Images Only - overwrites only the images.
    As an aside, the rigid table created by FW is rarely
    desirable for a
    production web site.

  • How does the integration between CRM and SD occur

    How does the integration between CRM and SD occur?  Is only via ALE and are there config steps in CRM to ensure the correct data mapping between CRM and SD?
    So, if I create an order or quote in CRM how is it then created in SD?  Or do they share the same data store.
    thanks

    Hi John,
    Here is good documentation regarding Data Exchange for Sales Transactions: the CRM Enterprise and the ERP System are two different repositories, If you create the Sales Order in CRM then they will be replicated into SD (using CRM Middleware, BDoc's)

    Hi,All
    Now we are implementing a SAP-Retail project,we encounter a problem of integration between SAP and non-SAP applications(POS),we want to set Inbound/Outbound between SAP and POS applications realtimely,POS can connect to the SAP system via VPN,weather it can be implemented?
    I conceive to implement it with SAP Java Connector IDoc Class,I don't know weather it is the best solution?If not,please give some other proposal.
    I have download the classes from SAP website and try it with the samples provided by SAP(JCoIDocSample1.java/JCoIDocSample3.java),In my testing,Inbound is succeed,but,in SAP-Retail IS,standard Outbound message type is defined via file port,some one told me that SAP Java Connector IDoc Class can only receive idocs from tRFC port?is it true?If not,please tell me how to deploy in SAP so java program can receive idocs from file port?

    We too are interested in finding information on integration between SAP and Intergraph.  Were you able to obtain information and I was wondering if could share this with us.

  • Session variable filters in the integration between OBIEE and webcenter

    Hello All,
    I have a customer with the requirement to make sure that reports created in answers and containing sessions variables in filters definition will be correctly filtered once called from webcenter.
    So if an OBI report is diplayed in webcenter and contains the same type of filters (based on session variable), will the results be filtered based on the specified variable?
    In other words can we use session variables in the integration between OBIEE and webcenter?

  • Integration between SAP and third party tax software

    can some body explain me or provide me docs regarding integration between sap and third party tax software like vertex.
    Thanks

    Hi
    First configure the same via the following menu path:
    1.) IMG>Financial accounting>Financial accounting global settings>Taxes on sales/purchases>Basic settings>External tax calculation>Define physical destination
    2.) Then test connection (option is available there).
    3.) If the connection is successful, also verify that the external tax package installed supports the R/3 4.6 version of the API. You do that by going to:
    System Information>Function List
    Check if the following functions are listed:
    • RFC_CALCULATE_TAXES_DOC
    • RFC_UPDATE_TAXES_DOC
    • RFC_FORCE_TAXES_DOC
    • RFC_DETERMINE_JURISDICTION
    4.) Then test the tax data retrieval:
    From SE37, select the relevant function modules like RFC_DETERMINE_JURISDICTION.
    The above 4 steps are necessary to satisfy that the RFC connection is established
    Hope useful
