Lightroom video keywords to FCPX?

I've got years of video archived in Lightroom, and now that FCPX can import Finder keywords, does anyone know a way to get Lightroom keywords into FCPX as well? thanks,

Why would Lightroom video capabilities/iTunes import/Netflix streaming/Photoshop all stop working at once?

Hi forum --
Several programs all stopped working at the same time and will only work (briefly) right after I've restarted my computer including:
- iTunes audio cd importing
- Lightroom video importing and playback
Netflix streaming (on both Safari and Chrome) won't work and Photoshop (CS4) won't open at all.
Videos work without a problem in: Quicktime, iMovie, Final Cut Pro, and Bridge CS4 and CS6. YouTube also works without a problem.
Maybe the problems are conincidence, but this seems like it is posisbly a software problem with my computer, not my programs.
I have tried reinstalling Ligthroom and resetting the preferences files but they don't help.
The only things that I can think of that happened is that I:
1. downloaded my own videos from my own YouTube acocunt after my external hard drive failed and maybe there was a virus?
2. I deleted some programs with "Clean My Mac 2" and maybe it deleted some crucial file someplace?
I am running a 2009 13" MacBook Pro with a 2.53 Ghz processor and 4 GB RAM and Mountain Lion (everything is up to date).
Thank you for any suggestions!

I had problems with streaming until I changed the WiFi channel that I was using. The original one conflicted with my neighbor. After that, MOST of my streaming problems vanished. Occasionally, a movie would pause for more buffering and I eventually ran an ethernet cable from the Apple TV to my Apple Extreme (to eliminate the Wifi). I have not had a single problem since then (except to repair the drywall after running the ethernet from one floor to another). :-)

My quicktime is very jerky with 1080p video but when I play the video file in FCPX its smooth. I recently upgraded to OS mavericks on iMac with 16gb of ram and should not be having this problem. Is it possible to reinstall older software?

My quicktime is very jerky with 1080p video but when I play the video file in FCPX its smooth. I recently upgraded to OS mavericks on 2011 iMac with 16gb of ram and should not be having this problem. Is it possible to reinstall older software? I cant figure whats causing the jerky video so I'm assuming its the new OS. Any one have any suggestions?

I have the same but not the same problem. When I play a sound or a video on a website (other than youtube)on safari, a weird nois is comeing from the speakers, the sound has pops/clicks but if I play the same video/sound on mozilla it works fine.. If wnyone know what's the problem.. please let us know

Compressor 4 doesn't work since I installed Mavericks and I can't export a video normally on FCPX either.

Can someone help me?
Thank you!

Got the phone direct from the Apple website, so I assume it was unlocked, and it had been on giffgaff ever since but I don't see why that's a problem?
The carrier was automatically selected as Free and is up to date.
There seemed to be no problem that the SIM was being used in an iPhone 4 and my friends in exactly the same situation (e.g. arriving in France and moving over to the Free network with iPhone 4's) have had zero problems with their 3G network; it just seems to be me.
The Free Mobile Network is included on this list which I guess means that they are Apple-approved? iPhone: Wireless carrier support and features
How do I find out whether or not I would need to manually configure an APN? I'm not even sure I know what that is.

How to combine video clips into one video clip using FCPX

I typed this into the search engine but could not come up with anything. How do you combine Video clips into one Video clip using FCPX? Thanks in advance.
Gar

The simple answer is to put the clips together in a project in the desired order and export (oops, the new word is share [YUK!]) a master file.
But maybe you should say a little more about the clips to determine whether the answer I've given is relevant to yor situation.

Slightly jittery video export from FCPX

I'm placing a supplied 3D rendering video file in FCPX and when I export the footage it doesn't move as smoothly as the original footage. It seems a bit more jittery. I was supplied with both Apple ProRes 422 HQ and a full Animation format and they both export the same. Any idea why this is happening?

The footage was supplied by a 3D animation studio we use. They can provide me with whatever format I require. In the future what should I ask for exactly to make it easier to edit in FCPX?
Here is a screen grab of the "hi-res" render file they also supplied me with.

Lightroom 4 Keywording Multiple Photos

I'm in library mode and trying to add the same series of keywords to a group of about 60 photos. All these photos are highlighted at the bottom of my screen but one photo appears to be highlighted more brightly. I've typed in a group of keywords in my sidebar and then clicked enter. I thought that action should tag all 60 photos with the same keywords but it doesn't. Only the brightly highlighted photo gets the keywords. Surely there has to be a way to tag multiple photos with the same keywords all at once. I've watched Cris Orwig's video on Adobe and am following the same steps he demonstrates but the keywords are only tagged to the one photo. Am I missing something simple here?
Thank you
Mark

I just reviewed http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-lightroom-5/adding-keywords/ in which Chris Orwig clearly shows adding keywords to multiple images in the filmstrip, NOT in the grid view. Of course, MY Lightroom doesn't allow me to add keywords to multiple images using the method shown in this video. And just an added note that this is the EXACT same video shown under the label "learn-lightroom-4/adding-keywords/ so I don't know if this could be done in v4 but not in v5 and someone just screwed up by reusing the same video..... Thanks Jim Wilde and everyone else for your help. I was starting to pull my hair out.

Unusable video effects in fcpx

fcpx 10.0.9, mac osx 10.8.5
video effects do not respond when scrolling over them (after having selected a clip), or turn black or pink. no preview available.
when moving them on top of a clip, they cannot be adjusted.
not all effects have this problem. only the Looks effects.
all settings of these effects are also set automatically to min. or max. when putting them on top of a clip.
I have reïnstalled FCPX, Motion and Compressor, without result.
It is also not possible to render or export/share the video directly within fxpx or compressor. Compressor scips all color corretion.
I have to make an 10bit uncompressed file first, then import in compressor. Then it works...
I cannot switch to fcpx 10.1, because ProTools is not working with Mavericks yet...
anyone experienced this before?
thanks

done that. didn't help.
just red something about a sony xdcam plugin.
deleted that also.
didn't work...

Can I use Video Mornitoring in FCPX 10.1 on iMac?

New Feature of FCPX 10.1.... great but????
Can I use this feature in iMac???? via thunderbolt to HDMI Adapter? or other I/O

There is a difference between "Video Monitoring" and putting your viewer in a second display.
It depends on your needs. If you are editing for the web you do not need that kind of "broadcast" video monitoring.
You can certainly use an iMac with a second display attached via a thunderbolt to hdmi adapter. With that setup you can put the viewer or the browser on the second display.
For true broadcast monitor on an iMac you'd need to add a specific device (like those from BlackMagic or Matrox).
But, again, do you NEED that? If you are in doubt, you don't.

Lightroom 4 Keywords

I've been experimenting with LR4, but can't figure out how to reset all keywords and restart from scratch.
I've deleted every catalog I can find (they were all under a Lightroom folder under Pictures).
I start Lightroom and create a new catalog. I exit, delete the default catalog and restart.
I import a folder with about 6 images, each with a few non-hierarchical keywords.
Lightroom gets inventive and puts them into hierarchies that it remembered from earlier in the day when I had imported keywords from Bridge and then tried to fix the mess Lightroom made of them. Where is it getting these old hierarchies from??
How do I stop this nonsense and start clean?

The answer seems to be that Lightroom doesn't play nice with other programs that keyword tag files, even the JPG files which I started with.
In addition to tags that other programs can see, Lightroom seems to put its own hidden tagging information in JPGs (and who knows what it does with other files). Went one removes the tags with another program, Lightroom still finds its own hidden information.
Can someone point me to a detailed explanation from Adobe of what really happens with different file types?
Only solution seemed to be to use Lightroom to remove ALL tags from the files I previously tagged in Bridge and start over (in Bridge).
One thing I really don't like about tagging with Lightroom:
Assume you have a hierarchical tag like: Birds > Ducks > Mallard
If you apply just the Mallard and the Ducks tags with Bridge, that's all that put in the file and all other programs see.
If you apply just the Mallard and Ducks tags with Lightroom, it seems to know that you've just added those tags, not the Birds tags. But if you look at the file with another program (Bridge, Windows Explorer, etc.) all three tags have been applied.
What's even worse, if after tagging in LR I go back to Bridge and remove the "Birds" tag, and then come back to Lightroom and try to change the tags again or remove them all I get a "metadata write error" from LR4 which I have no idea how to resolve.
The only reason I bought Lightroom was for cataloging, and I'm experimenting with LR4 to try out the new ACR features. I've had so much trouble with the tags that I haven't even had a chance to look at the new ACR features.

Lightroom 4 - keywords lists

It should be able to create keyword lists in two languages at least in Lightroom 4, in English and local language. It's because not everyone speaks English, but English is required to exhibit the photo on the stock. It will make work easier.
I need to have choose of what language version I wont so save keywords when I export the images.
And more, the ability to edit lists of keywords in a separate extended window, to facilitate.

As this forum is focused primarily on the beta version and new features, you'd be better to log your request on the official feature request forum here: http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/products/photoshop_family_photoshop_lightro om

Importing Lightroom 2 keywords into Aperture

Hi.
I just got Aperture but am currently using Lightroom 2 and am trying to switch over. I'm trying to find a way to export my photos from Lightroom and them import them into Aperture but still have the keywords attached to the photos so that I do not have to go through all of the photos and re-keyword them.
Thanks for any help!

I've got similar issue, but for me it's importing my photos from Digikam (Linux).
Digikam supports hierarchal tags (keywords) and stores them as ITPC keywords and, as noted by the OP, Aperture picks these up which is great. The problem/limitation is that ITPC keywords are flat so, in order to maintain the hierarchy, DK writes them to ITPC as '/' delimited.
For example, I have the following tag hierarchy in DK:
People
...Family
......Me
......Mo
......Tanya
......Tamzyn
A photo tagged in DK with Me and Tanya results in the following ITPC keywords:
People, People/Family, People/Family/Me, People/Family/Tanya
Aperture adds each of those as a discrete keyword which is OK as it means the metadata is retained, but is there anyway, scripting perhaps, to have Aperture recognize the '/' delimited keywords as a hierarchy (I've created the same hierarchy in Aperture)?

IMac vs the new Mac Pro for video editing in FCPX?

Hi.
I am currently using a macbook air for all my editing and rendering of videos in FCPX. The editing process is reasonably smooth when dealing with shorter clips, but when I tried to edit multicam clips, things started to slow down. Also, the rendering and compression processes are tedious. I am planning to edit and process a much larger number of videos in the next years to come, so I have decided to do a serious upgrade of my system.
For the moment, I am torn between a maxed out iMac 27", which would be the cheapest alternative, and the 6 core Mac Pro or 4 core Mac Pro.
When I look at benchmarks of the new Mac Pro's in Geekbench, the iMac is never very far away in terms of performance. Does tests like this tell anything about how well the Mac Pro will perform in FCP? Does the hardware in the Mac Pro have features which makes it superior to the iMac, in other ways than for example the "pure power" of the CPU and GPU?
Christopher.

FCP X 10.1, Motion 5.1 Updates w/Dual GPU Support (new Mac Pros) (from Thursday)
Apple released Final Cut Pro X 10.1 Thursday with support for Dual GPUs in the new Mac Pro and more.
Long list in the Final Cut Pro X 10.1 Release Notes that also links to info on How to back up important FCP X 10.0.x files before updating. (Today's Apple docs listing also has more related to Final Cut Pro X 10.1.)
Also out today are Compressor 4.1 and Motion 5.1. Full release notes below but here's a clip from the App store Motion 5.1 changes:
Optimized playback and rendering using dual GPUs in the new Mac Pro
FxPlug 3 with custom plug-in interfaces and dual-GPU support
Faster project loading, especially for complex projects
Share directly to YouTube at 4K resolution
Spanish language localization
Dual FirePro Dxxx Rendering FCP-X
http://www.barefeats.com/tube05.html
Intel Xeon processors are designed to run 24/7 and stay cool and under load.
Mac Pro so far hold up strongly for years, easy to add and upgrade RAM and processor, and maybe, hopefully, even the twin GPUs. Thunderbolt2 for all your projects and storage as well.
6 or 8-cores is going to walk away from iMac which is breathing hard and not designed for constant heat. Haswell was designed to conserve and reduce.

Lightroom 3 keyword suggestions

It seems that Lightrrom 3 keyword suggestions aren't, well, suggestions any more, as they were in Lightroom 2. Can I revert the behaviour back?
Let me give you a real example. I take pictures with Bob in them. Bob is often with Suzie. In Lightroom 2 if I added the keyword "Bob" to a picture it would recommend "Suzie", which saved me some typing.
No longer in Lightroom 3 - it seems to just give me a list of recent keywords - I'm not actually sure how it differs from the 'Recent Keywords' set displayed immediately below. Any ideas?
Many thanks
Tom

I agree, in version 2 the suggestions in my experience were usually meaningful. It was particularly so with extended family photos where if I entered a name then LR2 would come up with keyword suggestions such as spouse/childrens names. In my nature or landscape photography LR2 would come up with useful related suggestions from previously entered images. eg. If I typed "pelican" LR2 would suggest items such as "bird", "beach", "flight", "waterbird", "sea", "water" etc. This feature made keywording effortless when adding a number of keywords
Now it is as good as useless. The keywords suggested bear little or no relevance to the first keywords selected. Keywording is tedious again. In my opinion this amounts to a bug and I hope that our friends at Adobe both listen and rectify it soon.
Please can someone from Adobe comment on this.

Lightroom 5 keyword problem

I am relatively new to Lightroom and have been importing groups of images into Lightroom. All my images already have keywords so when I import them those words populate the keyword list. I started organizing the list by moving keywords under parents. For example I have ATTRIBUTES under that heading I have words like beauty, delicate, fragile, gossamer, etc. For some reason ATTRIBUTES and all that I have listed under it has been drawn under another word, in this case feathery. What I want is for ATTRIBUTES to again be the parent and feathery to be part of the list under attributes. How do I do this?
I tried dragging feathery and placing it in ATTRIBUTES but it won't allow that to happen because feathery is now the parent.
I have looked around internet resources and this forum and have not found any obvious answer. Bear in mind I am not entering keywords, nor have I created any keyword sets. I am simply organizing the existing words that populated the keyword list from my various imports that scroll out under the Keyword list panel. I want to organize them so when I do enter new images that need to be keyworded I can just logically open the various parents and easily select the proper keywords.
I am sure I am missing something fundamental here and I am a bit afraid to go trying a bunch of things for fear of making the problem worse.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Forgot to mention that I do know I can drag ATTRIBUTES and put it under other keywords. I am trying to get it to stand on its own with its complement of keywords scrolling out beneath it.
