Last tiger and fcp: cannot export back to mini dv

we used to be able with old Mac Os and fcp to reexport to mini dv, wether on our jvc super vhs, or sony and panasoni cameras. we just are not able to do it now; anybody has a solution?

Check your firewire cable. shouldnt be any difference between printing to video on 4.5 or 5. Or perhaps its something else. I am honestly aware of many problems I and some others are having with Tiger / FCP 5, this is not one of them that I'm aware of.

  • Question for Sue and others - Problems exporting back to Mini DV tape

    Hi there Sue
    This is a very interesting concept that you have mentioned in another of your posts:
    "In the past, many posters reported this type of problem. There is a workaround that I realize should not be necessary, but it has helped many.
    Instead of exporting to the camera, "Share" your iMovie video as a QuickTime Full Quality DV
    Import this QT movie into a NEW iMovie project.
    Then export (share) that to your camcorder.
    It does take time to convert the imovie to QuickTime, but in the end it should work."
    I have a similar problem where that when I want to back up by edited movie back to mini DV tape, there might be the occasional 'dropped frame' or image break up that appears from time to time on my back up tape. This then renders this back up useless for my purpose. Currently I select 'share' and then 'video camera' to perform this action. Sometimes I think that its Imovie's fault that these errors occur and sometimes I blame the video camera - who knows?!! One thing I do notice is that when looking at the video transferring from Imovie to Video tape, any error wont show on the Imovie window, but will show on the video camera flip out screen. I wonder if it means that it is the video camera's fault?
    Do you think that your process might cure this problem?
    Many thanks

    Hi lorddim1,
    In addition to Sue's great advice, another method of exporting to your camera may solve your problem - a method which I always use with success. In iMovie's Preferences (Menu>Preferences), check the box "Play DV project video through to DV camera". Set your camera to the VCR (Play) position and simultaneously click the Play button in iMovie and the Record button on the camera (or camera remote).
    After exporting to tape, it's best to then un-check the Preferences box, as leaving it checked can sometimes mute the audio playback in iMovie in some versions.
    The quality of the export is identical to that using the "Share" feature in iMovie. It may also help to set the iMovie Preference for Playback to "Standard (smoother motion)" and to ensure that, in the Timeline, "Show Clip Volume Levels" and "Show Audio Waveforms" are not activated (go to the View menu for these or Control-Click on the audio track/s). The less iMovie has to worry about, often the smoother the playback. Please note that the Playback preference has no effect on the quality of the export - it's only a setting for playback on the monitor.
    Hope this helps!

  • I hit Forget Network and now cannot get back onto my wireless home network. All of my other computers and iphones are fine.  How do I get the network back?  It shows in my list of networks but when I use the password and try to join it says not connected.

    See if the iPad will accept the password after you restart it. It's worth a try.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    You could also try a reset as well.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Optimizing Tiger and FCP 5

    For some reason i keep getting dropped frames on playback after upgrading everything to tiger and fcp 5...
    (i have two installations on seperate drives, one still running FCP 4.5 on OS 10.3.9 and the other with Tiger and FCP 5)
    i'm wondering about setting in Tiger and FCP, perhaps some one can either make some suggestions or direct me to a page that lists these.

    does firwire 800 run on the same bus as 400 (the one i am using for my ntsc output to monitor)?
    I thought i could run a firewire 800 drive with a firewire dv camera at the same time.
    hmm.
    I actually do have another fireiwre card installed but i am running more than one drive, a piece of digidesign hardware (digi 002) and a dv camera... thought i should be able to do all that with all of the firewire ports i now have but maybe not..

  • FCP-just upgraded to tiger and FCP Studio-reports 'Missing FW connection".

    I just finished upgrading 3 computers to OS 10.4.7 and FCP Studio, then installed all the obvious updates.
    The first 2 computers, a G5 and G4, had no problems seeing and capturing video via FW.
    The last computer, my primary workhorse, cannot find the tape device, a DSR 20. Upon clicking 'continue', to finish loading FCP, in A/V settings, the system reports the Apple FW is "missing". I've switched out the cable, then the tape devices, I've rebooted and thrown prefrence and plist files... etc...
    Here's a weird thing, the controller in the log and capture window works fine to control the deck, but it won't pass or capture the video.
    I'm getting ready to reinstall everything. Anybody have an opinion?
    Thank you,

    Often in upgrading the OS, QT or FCP for some odd reason QT will get knocked slightly off kilter. The usual solution it to force a full reinstall of QT.
    This is how:
    Go to /library/receipts and delete any files that say Quicktime followed by a number e.g. Quicktime703.pkg
    Go to the Apple quicktime site and download the appropriate version of Quicktime to your hard drive.
    Run the Quicktime installer.
    Repair Disk Permissions for your System Disk (Disk Utility > Select the system disk > Repair Disk Permissions)
    Reboot
    Good luck.

  • My company recently loaded foxfire and I cannot have two applications open in foxfire, the second page overlays the first and I cannot go back to the previous page or reduce the first page to view the first.

    My pages in Foxfore are overlaying one another which is normal but you cannot get back to the previous page. An example is if I have a page opened in a program and open something totally different it replaces the first page and I cannot reduce the size to see the first page I was viewing nor go back to it. I did open a page with audio and opened another application in foxfire and the replacing went on as usual but the audio continued to play so the page is stinn there. Also the tool bar page showing icon is replaced with the newly opened page not an additional page opened being shown as a tab. It's like the newest page or site I open in Foxfire replaces the one that is currently opened.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I first had sites opening with Foxfire

    This might be caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update.

  • My iPhone 4s randomly shut off last night and won't come back on. what do i do?

    My iPhone 4s randomly turned off last night and it won't come back on.  It shut off with plenty of battery life last night, but just in case, I've had it plugged into the charger all night. Still nothing has happened. Any advice?

  • Cannot export back to FCP

    I have a sequence that I mixed in STP. I have tried exporting the sequence back to FCP by using EXPORT>SEND FILES TO FCP SEQUENCE (worked before but not now). I have also saved it on the Desktop as a aiff file, but when I try to import it in FCP it says there is a file error and won't open.
    I have sent the file from FCP to STP multiple times because I thought that the send off might be the problem but there is still no difference.
    If I export from STP I can open the sequence in FCP and it looks mixed but there is absolutely no audio, not even the waveforms.
    Any idea what is going on or what I can do to solve this?

    Check your firewire cable. shouldnt be any difference between printing to video on 4.5 or 5. Or perhaps its something else. I am honestly aware of many problems I and some others are having with Tiger / FCP 5, this is not one of them that I'm aware of.

  • IPhone and iPad cannot play back some shared videos.

    I have a 3rd gen. iPad, an iPhone 4S, and a 17 inch MacBook Pro, all with the latest OS and software.  I have library sharing turned on on the MacBook, and an extensive video library of TV shows purchased on iTunes.  Some of the episodes, usually from the same season, will not play back on the iPad, and cannot be listed on the iPhone. All of the files are located in sub folders under the same "iTunes Library" folder.  They all have the same .m4v file extension.  I cannot see a pattern that might help me figure this out, so I am asking for help.

  • Hi All. I reluctantly upgraded to IOS 7 last night and now cannot access my home WIFI, all other non Apple devices are fine. I have reset, it will not allow me to 'forget this network', doesnt show the option. I have turned on and off

    Hi All, I reluctantly upgraded to IOS 7.1.1 on my IPAD last night , reluctant as every upgrade which promises fixes which dont impact me causes problems that do , which I fix via this community. Today I can no longer access my WIFI at home, my non Apple devices all work fine.I have tried all the online suggestions I can find for this, reset facgtory settings, it will not allow me to 'forget this network', I try to reconnect and it asks for my password which I know is correct and it says it cannot access my network. It can access an unsecured one I believe, but that is not ideal. Any fresh suggestions would be really welcome, please. Many thanks

    Thanks so much for your reply, yes I did and that has not worked either . A friend has suggested re installing upgrade, so may try that .

  • My Macbook Pro ran out of battery last night and wouldn't turn back on even when connected to power for a period of time. However, when I woke up, it did turn on. Is there a reason this happened and should I get it looked at?

    Last night, I was watching something on my Macbook Pro and it died (out of battery). I went to plug it in and waited a couple of minutes to try and start it back up. However, when I connected the power source the light was green, which could not have been the case since I know 100% it was out of battery. I proceeded to hold the start button for a long period of time, but my computer made no noise and refused to turn on - it looked like for all intensive purposes it was dead. I left it alone overnight praying that it would be alright in the morning and luckily, when I opened the computer this morning it was restarted and fine. I'm concerned because I've had this happen to me a couple of times and while it always turns back on, I feel like there is a bigger issue that I need to get addressed. Can anyone help me with this? Any ideas? Thank you!

There is also a logic board battery to hold various settings.
