Is Camcorder Canon XA20 compatable with FCE

I have purchased a camcorder Cann XA20 and hoping it is compatable with Final Cut Express HD.
Can some advise please.

There are types of footage that are known as Interlaced and Progressive.
If using PAL footage that has a video standard of 25 frames it is actually made up of 50 fields.
A field is one scan of odd lines followed by a scan of even lines, these two fields when combined create the one frame.
This is the type of footage FCE can work with.
Progressive footage is a self contained frame without the two fields.
Simply put, FCE is designed to work with Interlaced footage.
If your camera has shot Progressive footage do not expect it to Import.

Mac OSX 10.4 compatable with FCE?

I have recently bought Mac OSX tiger and wanted to know if it's working ok with FCE ver 2.03?

I recently updated my OS to Tiger (carefully followed all directions)- since all my other apps and my computer have been working beautifully ever since, I don't believe there's a problem with the way in which I installed 10.4.
FCE has indeed been very stable while running on 10.3.9, and it worked fine when I ran it using Panther (which I booted off my external hard disk).
I don't believe that FCE repeatedly crashing on Tiger is a widespread issue (I'm very relieved to hear that you aren't having problems with it), but for those of us who are having crashing issues I gather the problem is fixable. The task now is to find the fix. By the way, we're talking legal, purchased copies of FCE here, not the cracked or bootlegged rubbish.
I'll see what I can find. If I can't resolve the issue then I can at least run it off my 10.3 backup.

UltraBay CD/DVD Combo Drive Compatibility with X200 UltraBase

I have a T500 with a CD-RW / DVD-ROM drive (part #44C1930). Wondering if this drive is compatible with the X200 Ultrabase or I need to get a whole new drive altogether?
Help would be appreciated.

if it is from the T400, T500 or W500 then it is compatible with the X200 ultrabase.

Blue Ray Disk drive compatibility with DVD S Pro, Mac Pro

Ok, I'll make this an official question, where might I find info on BDR drive compatibility with DVD S Pro, Mac Pro, etc? I'm a little surprised that there doesn't seem to be much info available.
I can always use my Pioneer BDR-202 with a windows box, I have several, but I'm trying to get AWAY from them.
Any thoughts, links, etc. welcome, thanks
Les

Blu-ray offers a level of interacivity that is not possible with DVDs, so it isn't just an different drive that you are getting with Blu-ray. Seeing how Apple didn't upgrade DVD SP with the new FCP Suite 2, it is reasonable to assume they are working on a separate Blu-Ray Studio Pro, that is going to be completely different than DVD SP. Adobe Encore's support for Blu-Ray is extremely buggy, so obviously moving from DVD programming to Blu-Ray programming isn't just a simple tweak to the code.
Apple doesn't pre-announce software they are working on so this is all guess work, but it is reasonable to assume that they are working on a Blu-Ray programming application. Be patient. Do you really have the money to burn on the bleeding edge of new technology? A single Blu-Ray burnable disc sells for $20. Two months ago the exact same disc sold for $45. Prices will continue to fall as things stablize.

FCE compatibility with Panasonic PV-GS180 ?

Just wondering if anyone knows if the Panasonic PV-GS180 camcorder with work with FCE 3 on PPC eMacs, and/or FCE 3.5 on Intel iMacs with integrated video memory?
Thank you!

I should work fine. It's a DV camera and has a FireWire out that you can connect to your Mac. Just don't try using the USB out with FCE - that won't work.
In regard to the camera, whether your Mac is PPC or Intel doesn't matter, nor does the version of FCE, nor does the Intel GMA video in the Macbooks and Intel Minis. If you have an Intel based Mac, however, you do you need to go with FCE v3.5 or higher.
It's a nice little package at a reasonable price, but if you haven't purchased the camera yet, see if you can find a suitable model with CCDs larger than the 1/6" CCDs that this one has and also optical stabilization. You will notice the difference.

Portable DVD Player Compatable with iPod touch?

Does anyone know of a portable DVD player compatible with iPod touch that has a reasonable battery life? Philips makes a portable DVD player - the DCP 851 - that has an iPod touch dock, but the battery life is only 2.5 hrs. There are several other portable DVD players out there with substantially longer battery lives (Panasonic has one with a 13 hr. battery life), but generally they don't seem to be compatible with an iPod (most appear to only have A/V input through a mini jack, and I can't seem to find an iPod-to-mini jack converter). Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

It will only require that you change the security and password on your other devices. Apple devices work much better with WPA, and WPA is far more secure than WEP.
It should be relatively simple to re-configure the router's wireless security to use WPA2 or WPA Personal security. WPA passwords do not require any special characters like WEP does. Once you re-configure the router all you need do is make the appropriate changes in your other devices to use WPA security and enter the new password.

Less and less camcorders compatible with FCE ?????

Tell me if I'm wrong, but I'm looking at a lot of the 2007 HD consumer camcorders and there are less options available for MAC users. Even those at the $1600 mark. Are we going to see a decline in FCE use because APPLE is not stepping up to the plate? I mean c'mon, the APPLE compatibility list is so old, can they at least look at some new models and stick them on the list? I eman it's not alot. Look at the new Panasonic consumer camcorders, not many in HD but are they compatible? I'm hearing that are not with FCE, whereas the older GS models and others were? Whats the true story with this?

Hi(Bonjour)!
The compatibility list is obsolete, and in my own opinion it's give more confusion than information.
As prices go down for HDV consumer camera, the spec of camcorders going in the same direction.
Recording on hard disk or DVD allows to minimize the form factory of camera and the cost of the camera itself.
Push record, push stop, eject the DVD and watch the result on your TV: that's the consumer way to make movie.
In the vast majority, consumers do not edit movies ( do you remember plain 8mm film? "no editing" for the mass, same thing for VHS video) .
So camcorder's company focus on this mass of consumers: they simply don't need editing capability.
FCE is not used by the vast majority.
FCE is aimed toward prosumers and professional market: those persons do editing in an extensive way and the use prosumer or professionnal gears. Gears that use the reliable and mature system: DV (in all flavors) and HDV recorded on...DV tapes.
I'm pretty sure that the next generation of iMovie will support newer recording media (it actually support DV, HDV and mpeg-4(a mass consumers format) before apple PRO applications like FCE.

What Superdrive (external USB) is compatable with Mountain Lion 10.8.3?

What Superdrive (external USB) is compatable with Mountain Lion 10.8.3?
My New install of 10.8.3, will now.... not reconize anything I put in my drive... it spits it back out!
Superdrive does NOT reconize any activity.
It will show my information on/of my drive...but, that is about it...
Is there a patch/fix for this issue with 10.8.3?
If not...why is Apple (seemingly) ignoring this issue? There are so many with the same complaint.
They want $19 to answer this question...why? I just bought the upgrade to 10.8.3 a couple of days ago.
Anyone have any suggestion, beside switching BACK to Microsoft...?

Sorry about the serial number...wasn't thinking. Mentally noted.
I would think it to not be too much, to ask for it to be able to read/write to the listed capablities list with the product (superdrive). The different media type...
I insert blank -R DVD, -R CD, ...anything I put in,it spits it out. NOTE: The ONLY thing I've been able to get it to read, is some old CD's that I had some mp3 files on...it would read that OK... but if I try a DVD read or write and write a CD...NOTHING!
This worked fine before upgrading to 10.8.3   was at 10.7.5....
Any help would be much appreciated.

SATA11 is it compatable with all controller cards

I want to add 500gb HD's to my G4 Giga and know I need a SATA controller card, I am considering this one card pic is this card compatable with SATA11 hard drives?
Powermac G4 Giga-ethernet Dual 1.2ghz 100bus 2 Gig Ram 2xHD 80gb+120gb USB1+2/FW Mac OS X (10.4.9) wireless network

Thanks Japamac, can I go through this deadhead style...
You can install as many OS's as you want. When you
set your Startup Disk Preferences, you are able to
select the OS that you want, as well as the disk that
you want.
Does this mean I have to make a partion thing on the same disk for each (even the same) OS?
Do I use the original install disks to do this?
Another way to select startup disk/OS, is to boot
while holding the Option key. This will open the
Startup Manager, and allow you to select which and
where you want to boot from.
This is the screen I remember from my Apple Care Plan Help Desk days
It is a good idea to have a second (and third)
bootable disk in your system.
Is the third disk on a partion thing ( I have researched this and have found, using "disk utility" I can make "partitions", if I understand correctly, my machine will "see" a partition as a separate disk, am I miles off?
That way, heaven
forbid, should one disk have trouble booting, you can
use the Startup Manager to select an alternate disk,
and then diagnose and repair the ailing disk from
there.
Do I use "disk utility" from another partition disk to do this?
This is, actually, a very important thing to
have in your system. by all means, install the OS on
the other disk.
A partition on the 120gb, how big should the partition be?
Remember, to keep both disks backed up. So, don't
give up on your external drives all together. They
are VERY useful.
This is where you are going to hate me... I dont have any externals or back ups.... this is why I am trying to work out what to do... I back up my photo's to DVD when I have enough, its not good practice because it can take a months worth before I have time to physically go through all the work to decide what I will archive to DVD, I would love for all of the work to automatically copy itself to a safe place.
While we are on the subject, a very good way to
backup, is to use Super Duper. This is a clone
utility. SD will copy bit for bit, your drive, and
then make that backup bootable. This is a very nice
feature. Also, after that, you can use the Smart
Update feature, which updates any changes of a volume
to it's clone. This way, you always have an exact
copy of your system and data. Invaluable!
This is obviously what I need... I will download it and try to understand its functions
I like OWC, myself. Even with shipping and tariffs to
Japan, it is most often cheaper to do so. Also, the
company is very reputable, has great service (try
their live chat) and stands behind what they sell.
OWC also has lots of install tutorial video (and
PDF's) in their support section. Check it
out.
I have trusted OWC since you recommended them for my processor upgrade and have just ordered the SATA controller from them and am going to get a 500gb internal HD for now until I can learn to rationalise my disk space... at the moment my files are just copies of themselves on the same disk (120gb)
Hey Japamac... I have to say thank you to you sir, you have obviously put a lot of time and effort into your reply and I really do appreciate it...

Which Sony Camera to buy to work with FCE HD?

I'm looking at either the Sony HDR FX1E HDV or Sony HDR HC1E HDV.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mark

Hi(Bonjour)!
That depends of what are your needs...
Both models works well with FCE HD 3.5 .
Try some research on the web for a comparaison between those two models. Look at:
http://reviews.cnet.com/SonyHandycam_HDR_HC3/4505-65007-31749257.html?tag=tpr
and
http://reviews.cnet.com/SonyHDR_FX1/4505-65007-31085889.html
The FX1E (E stands for european model) seems to be more semi-professionnal (3 CCD chips, big lens, big form factory, more manual controls and big price) than HC1(one CMOS chip, smaller case, operation by screen menus). But the HC1 would give good results either. Pay attention that HC1 is actualy replaced by a newer model: HC3 for the same price. May be you can find a bargain price for a new HC1.
It's a matter of finding to good balance between your needs and your wallet...
Remember that HDV needs powerful computer with plenty of RAM and space on hard disk, but that image quality is fantastic. (a dual G5 with 4.5 Gig RAM is a such powerfull computer).
Actually, your options for distibuting HDV natively are limited to play final movie from your camcorder. There is not DVD burner that support HDV right now. (do a search in this forum under "HDV, iDVD DVD burner"

Problem with iTunes compatability with iMovie and iPhoto

I purchased some music from the iTunes music store and wanted to use that music in a homemade DVD I made. I also have tried using the purchased music when I play a slideshow in iPhoto. In both instances, an error window popped up saying that I needed to launch iTunes and authorize the computer to play the song... Well I bougth the music on the same computer and it is authorized. I typed in the authorization anyways and then after that iMovie and iPhoto both pop up with an error saying that it can't use the file.
Thinking it might just be one song file... I have tried this with many purchased song. I have had the same problem with all of the purchased songs I've tried.
Are some purchased songs not compatable with the iLife applications? How can I fix this problem? I'm running iLife 05 and I have installed all of the updates, including the most recent...
iTunes 6.0.2
iPhoto 5.0.4
iMovie HD 5.0.2

ECI V 5.2.0 and CSI V 3.1.19 Using Java 1.6.0_17 required for ATO dealing have 3 issues, the summary below supply the solutions working as at 14 jan 2010.
Newer release version will fix the issues but in the meantime if you need to set up a new computer with OS 10.6.2 . I have summarised the issues and the solutions which I have sourced from online apple discussion and directly from many phone call to ATO support.
Please note: You will need either a new Digital certificate from the ATO with a new password unless or you can export your current Digital certificate from your old computer and you know your current ATO password.
To export existing valid Digital Certificate, Launch CSI certificate manager from within ECI on your old computer select the certificate in the list click the Export button and save it to our desktop, use the default format CSI Store Files (.csistore)
Then copy the file to the Desktop of the new computer running 10.6.x
Next you need to Download ECI and CSI from ATO
http://eci.ato.gov.au/release/eciclient.dmg
http://csi.business.gov.au/Pages/default.aspx
Install first ECI, then CSI
- Using 10.6.2 on a new computer with a Fresh Install (all new) but importing current sDig Certificate. I have encountered 3 issues as 14 Jan 2010 which are:
1) ECI and CSI cannot launch see Solution (A) posted posted by Bruce Linn on Apple discussion, many thanks to him.
2) After resolving issue 1, CSI open and import the Digital certificate but it is not visible, therefore it is not imported, because in fact the csi folder is Write Protected and need to be trashed. See Solution (B) supplied over the phone by ATO support level 2
3 After fixing 1 and 2 , when I import a BAS document from the ATO, when I go to the in Tray and sect the document and click open I get an error message :
Error - BT E103 The XML for the form being opened is invalid. Further details: Content is not allowed in prolog...

Flip Video Camera Compatiblilty with FCE 4.1

I was wondering about the Flip video camera's compatibility with my Mac set up. I have a PowerMac G5/Power PC, with Tiger 10.4.11. I'm using FCE 4.1. I also wondered about after dumping video into the Mac, and putting it in FCE, is there (the dreaded red line) RENDER time for every single clip put in a sequence. I know there are different versions of these cameras after viewing them online. Some say they are compatible with Power PC G4 or better. Others say you need the Intel based Mac. Any info. much appreciated!

Any suggestions on another small video camera like this that video will not have to be converted?
All these small video cameras use highly compressed delivery (or proprietary) codecs to record the video. There is no way around it - even when using Final Cut Pro, which has a much wider degree of latitude with regard to editable formats.
My advice, just develop a work flow that ingests and converts as standard practice. Create a batch process and go have something refreshing to drink while you wait for it to complete.
Have fun,

Sources for random effects to use with FCE

Any FCE users out there know of any good sources for random “effects” (not filters) and pre-made generic clips?
Coming from iMoive I'm really excited about the improved control I have with FCE but it doesn’t have some of the generic effects I’m looking for like the 3-2-1 screen at the beginning of a video or overlays where it looks like the film is burning on the light…etc. I need some cool yet affordable plug-ins.
Any help is appreciated!

archive.org offers some downloadable count-downs ... in "historic" pic quality..
with some painting skills, you're able to create your own in a paint-app and animate it in FCE ...
search for video-libraries on the net, many offer (for $$) DVDs with zillions of usable "movies", fog, fire, water, animatics...
lately, I stumbled here over
http://fxhome.com/effectslab/effectslab-overview.html
which allows creation of nice "particle" effects (smoke, fog, fire, bursts, ...)
I'm too more a iM user.. like all these presets... in FCE, you have to think yourself, how is it done, how to set which knobs&sliders to achieve a special, wanted look... much more options, but much more complicated ..
