  • Is the JVC SR-DVM700 compatible with Macs and Final Cut Studio HD?

    Hello all.
    The company I work for is seriously thinking about purchasing the JVC SR-DVM700 next week (based on my recommendations). What I have discovered however is that there are very little user reviews and even less info on whether it is compatible with Final Cut Studio HD. Everything I have found 'seems' to indicate that it will work but I need a definite answer. The lack of user info makes me a little nervous.
    Here are my questions:
    If this system is incompatible, what would be a good alternative within the same price range?
    What (if any), are the problems that crop up while using it and are they easily fixed?
    What are your general thoughts on the system?
    I really like the idea of a MiniDV, DVD and hard drive all in one machine but I need more info in case I need to put the brakes on this purchase.
    Thanks for all your help.

    This is a FCP HD, but no Final Cut Studio HD
    My guess is that you are trying to run FCP 4.5 HD on an Intel Mac.
    It isn't reliable even if you could install it.
    You need FCS2 -- at the upgrade price.

  • Is Adobe CS4 compatible with Mac OSX Maverick?

    Hello,
    Is Adobe CS4 compatible with Mac OSX Maverick?
    Thk

    I just upgraded my OS to Mavericks X, and my previously installed Photoshop CS4 failed to run when I tried to launch it.
    I even downloaded a brand new version from a link here that was in a "Mavericks X" column, giving me SOME confidence that it might just function on the new OS.
    So far, I've been down 3 days since upgrading my OS. I cannot get Photoshop CS4 to run, no matter what I've tried!
    Yes, I've uninstalled the prior version before installing the new one. I entered all of my serial number and registration information, and still NOTHING! Bridge appears to work fine, but Photoshop CS4 is just one big crater right now!
    I'd like to just talk with a human at Adobe on the phone for a few minutes, which should be all that's needed to get it resolved, but they do NOT offer phone support for Photoshop products!!! And, I'm unable to locate how to even become a "Premium Member" (paid) that will allegedly provide phone support!
    HELP!

  • Can I download and use final cut pro 7 on new mac pro tower?,or I must work with the new final cut pro x only?

    can I download and use final cut pro 7 on new mac pro tower?,or I must work with the new final cut pro x only?

    Disclaimer: This response assumes that a "new mac pro tower" is the new cylindrical model.
    1. You cannot download Final Cut Pro 7. FCP7 is part of Final Cut Studio (2009) a.k.a "FCS3" and it was only released on a DVD set. It can still be purchased online (maybe even from Apple) for prices ranging from a few hundred to $1K and it is 5 years old and unsupported.
    2. Although there are reports of systems running FCS3 on Mavericks, there are also a host of problems associated with this OS/software combination.
    3. A new version of iMovie Pro Final Cut Pro X has been released which is reportedly very fast and is supported.
    It's all a matter of what kind of movies you make...

  • I have two "MACs" and Final Cut Pro 7. I need a license to use this same software on both "Macs" How do I get it?

    I have two "MACs" and Final Cut Pro 7.
    I need a license to use this same software on both "Macs"
    How do I get it?

    You don't. You can install the same copy of FCP-7 on two macs (as long as you own both macs). You can't operate both copies at the same time.

  • What happens to Apple Color users with the new Final Cut Pro x

    What happens to Apple Color users with the new Final Cut Pro x?

    Some of the functions of Color have been incorporated into FCP X, meaning you will have more than the 3-Way-Color-Corrector but less than Color.
    Since you cannot share projects between FCP and FCP X, you might want to stay with FCS if you rely on Color.

  • Missing all export options in Adobe Premiere (can only export to final cut pro xml). Where are the options?

    Missing all export options in Adobe Premiere (can only export to final cut pro xml). Where are the options?

    There never was a trial version of FCP7. The application was only ever sold as part of the Final Cut Studio suite of applications. You might still find copies on eBay.

  • Premiere Pro CS3 on Mac versus Final Cut Pro

    Any of you working on a mac with Premiere Pro CS3? If so, why did you choose Premiere over Final Cut Pro?
    I'm currently using a Matrox RTX100 on a custom made PC that has all the correct pieces of hardware to make it work. It's running PPro 1.5 and I'm looking to upgrade to a new computer and wanted to know if PPro CS3 runs better or like butter on a Mac versus a PC. I will be using a Raid 0 1TB drive from G-Raid. For Mac the other option is Final Cut Studio 2.
    I've been a Premiere user since 1999-2000 and have had my share of grief with it but have grown to like it very much especially with the integration with AE.
    I want to know what your thoughts are if you were in the same position.
    Thanks,
    Frank

    I'm using PP CS3 on the Mac, having recently switched from a Windows machine. Since I already owned the Windows version of CS3 Adobe allowed me to "crossgrade" to Mac for the cost of shipping. I took a look at FCP but saw no compelling reason to make the switch in editing programs. If you do a lot of editing in HD it might be a different story as PP doesn't include an intermediate codec (FCP does), has issues with HDV video/audio sync and lacks native support for XDCAM. Hopefully these particular weaknesses in PP will be addressed soon.
    PP CS3 on the Mac has worked very well for me so far. The integration with AE is excellent. One other thing to note is that PP is available as a stand only app. This is no longer true of FCP, where you are forced to buy the entire Studio 2.

  • Not quite buyers remorse, but... Mac Mini, final cut pro x

    Yesterday I bought my first mac, a late 2012 mac mini 2.3 GHz i7 with 4GB RAM.  I do some very semi-professional video work and for years have been using a PC I built with Sony Vegas and it was time to get mac. 
    I know I took a chance with the mac mini, considering it doesn't have dedicated GPU, but it's not as snappy as I expected.  To be fair, I've ordered RAM to get this machine up to 16GB, so maybe it will get better.
    What I'm wondering is if there's any other mac mini users who have are using final cut pro x and adobe photoshop with similar specs?
    I may be returning this and building my own PC again, I don't know.  I really want this mac to be as awesome as I think it can be.  Any experiences is appreciated.

    Not FinalCut, but I do use Adobe Premiere, Encore and AfterEffects as well as PS, Dreamweaver and Audition.
    PS was terribly slow with the OEM 4Gb. My Mini is a Corei5.
    I first bumped up to 8Gb and that helped, but Premiere was still slow rendering. Photoshop worked well.
    I have 16Gb now and I can run PS or Premiere with a Virtual Machine running too, and no lag at all.

  • Suitable macs for final cut pro?

    Hello everybody,
    I decided to switch to a MAC, in order to learn Final Cut Pro, but I need a clarification.
    I'm interested in an iMAC 21.5inch, base model, so with a graphic card "NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics processor with 256MB of DDR3 SDRAM shared with main memory" (taken from the site).
    I'm afraid that final cut pro is not supporting such a system, can you please confirm (or not) my impression?
    Thank you very much!

    Final Cut Pro will work perfectly on the cheapest iMac.
    The graphics card may impinge on the performance of Color (one of the apps included in Final Cut Studio) but if you are an amateur you are unlikely to be too bothered about that.

  • Very disappointed with G5 and Final Cut Pro

    At work we bought a G5 last year for Final Cut Pro to edit plain DV video downloaded from a MiniDV camcorder via Firewire. The machine has 4gig memory, 6800 graphics, and is running FCP 5.0 with all of the Software Updates installed. The G5 is supposed to replace a much older PC that is running Adobe Premiere 2.0 on Windows XP. Even though the PC only has a single Pentium 4 CPU and older ATI X800 graphics, it does FAR more real-time effects than Final Cut Pro does on the G5. Why is this?? Almost everything I do, from titles to minor effects will appear instantly on Premiere Pro, real-time, no rendering needed. But almost everything I do on the G5 will show me a big red X until it has rendered. If I add a title, I still have to wait for it to render. If I add a light blur effect, I still have to wait for it to render. This is very annyoing and very depressing, we spent a lot of money on the G5. In reality, at least for us, it is slower than the older PC it is supposed to replace forcing us to spend a lot of time staring at those big red X'es while Final Cut Pro renders.
    Are we doing something wrong? Or is this the case with all dual processor G5s running Final Cut Pro 5.0?? Is there anything we can do to speed up rendering or enable actual real-time effects/titles?

    Welcome to the family.

    Simple failure to understand your new tools. Open the manual, run the tutorials. Study carefully the sections on how to set up all of your preferences for DV. It's easy and when you're done you're going to feel really silly.
    If your company intends to make money with FCP you must invest time to understand what you bought since you bought it without bothering to test drive FCP on a G5. If you liked Premiere on Windows, you may never enjoy using FCP on Macintosh. The switch can be devastating. You could be one of those poor souls who just doesn't get it. Turn your system over to a more open minded person on your staff.

  • Mac Mini - Final Cut Pro HD rendering

    Hi
    I have the late 2009 model mac mini, which I'm using to edit with final cut pro 7.
    Up until recently I have always used DV footage, but I'm currently editing a project using HD footage from two cameras, one filmed at 720p the other with 1080p. The 720 footage is fine but the 1080 footage requires rendering each time I make any changes at all. I currently have the RT set to safe, and the playback set to dynamic. I've tried changing these settings which result in no change.
    My question is - if I upgrade my mac mini to 8gb of ram instead of the 4gb currently installed, will this solve my issue?

    NO.  8GB RAM is ideal for HD editing.  But RAM isn't invovled in RT playback.  The CPU and hard drive are.  On an iMac you are stuck with FW800 external as your Scratch Disk, and this is just barely fast enough to deal with HD editing.
    To make things run more efficiently, I'd make sure the codec of both camera footage match.  That will save your CPU and hard drive a lot of work.  I'm going to get the 720 is DVCPRO-HD and the 1080 is HDV?  Any Long-GOP footage is going to bog down on FW800, so change it to either ProRes.  Or if the 720 footage is Panasonic DVCPRO-HD then transcode it to that.  That FW800 drive, and the GPU on that model of iMac are simply  the best for HD video editing.
    Set RT to Unlimited, Dynamic, you'll get the most playback out of it you can, once the codec issue is settled.

    Hi there
    Your characterization that "iMacs are simply not powerful enough" is not accurate. You can customize the iMac to be very powerful if you want to spend the money.
    Processor
    Get amazing performance from the quad-core Intel Core i5 or Core i7 processor, which features four processor cores on a single chip. Choose the speed and processor you want.

    3.4GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.9GHz [Add $200.00]
    Memory
    More memory (RAM) increases performance and enables your computer to perform faster and better. Choose additional 1600MHz DDR3 memory for your iMac.
    Memory
    8GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x4GB

    32GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 4x8GB [Add $600.00]
    Storage
    Configure your iMac with a large Serial ATA hard drive. Or choose flash storage for greater performance. Or get the best of both worlds and select Fusion Drive.
    Storage
    1TB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200 rpm
    3TB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200 rpm [Add $150.00]
    1TB Fusion Drive [Add $250.00]
    3TB Fusion Drive [Add $400.00]
    768GB Flash Storage [Add $900.00]
    Graphics
    Your iMac features next-generation NVIDIA graphics based on the Kepler architecture. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX with 1GB of dedicated GDDR5 video memory comes standard for superior graphics performance. For even better graphics response, configure your iMac with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX with 2GB of dedicated GDDR5 video memory.
    Graphics
    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675MX 1GB GDDR5
    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2GB GDDR5 [Add $150.00]
    In fact I'm using a late 2007 model iMac and it seems to work fine with FCPX.

    IMHO buy the best equipment you can afford rather than waiting for some undetermined time for a product update that may or may not come.  And, I'd stay away from the Frankentosh. You may end up spending a lot of time and money not to mention frustration using one of those machines.

  • Export videos with metadata to Final Cut Pro?

    I would like to use Aperture 3 for reviewing video footage from my SLR and adding notes, ratings, etc. Has anyone come up with a way to get this metadata exported from Aperture and imported into Final Cut Pro? I can export a simple tab-delimited file from Aperture, but is there a way to get that in a form where it can become a bin in Final Cut Pro. (I think Batch List import in FCP will only work for capturing stuff from tape -- my clips already exist on the hard drive.)

    Do you want to reedit them or do you just want to work with material generated in imovie. Not sure about the first, but for the second, export a quicktime movie. IMovie works with DVstreams which can cause problems in fcp.
