Missing DVCPRO HD 720p60 Codec

Hey All,
Was given footage to convert to DVD but cannot playback picture because my Quicktime Software lacks this codec (DVCPRO HD 720p60 Codec). Also, attempted to open with Final Cut Express but had the same issue. Any idea if and how I can get this codec, I need to burn to DVD today with Picture and cannot get footage in another format, is there any hope?
Running Mac OS Extended, 26.29 GB available on Disc.
Thanks!
Josh

That's a Final Cut Pro editing codec. You need Final Cut Pro to work with that codec. You'll need who ever sent you that video to convert it to something you can work with.

  • Codec missing: DVCPRO HD 720p60

    My machine has been a bit buggy lately so I reinstalled the OS and FCP studio 1, ran software update till nothing shows up. Now I have imported some P2 shot at DVCPRO HD 720p23.98 and when I attempt to load a sequence preset I get an error that -
    "Video Compressor DVCPRO HD 720p60 was not found. Please check that the hardware is present and enabled for this compressor. Setting the video compressor to Animation."
    What am I missing, not doing or doing that is preventing me from using this codec?
    Thanks, Sam

    There's no 24p DVCPRO HD codec. The 720p60 codec is used for 24p media. It doesn't change the media to 60p, it's just the name of the codec. It's a little confusing, but it works. My suggestion would be a full uninstall of FCS using FCS Remover and reinstall.

  • FC 5.0.4 capturing from HVX200 - DVCPRO HD 1080i50 codec missing?

    I am running FC 5.0.4, tried to capture 1080i50 footage from P2 and keep getting message about missing DVCPRO HD 1080i50 codec. What to do? Where can I get this codec?
    thanks!

    I'm afraid you'll have to reload FCP 5 to get them... Best to uninstall it first.
    Here's the way to do it:
    1) Close FCP
    2) Go to: /users/username/library/preferences/
    a. Delete the com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist
    b. Delete the FCP User data folder.
    3) Go to: Applications
    a. Delete FCP application
    b. Delete FCP HD addition easy setups folder.
    4) Go to: /library/applicaton support/fcp system support/
    a. Delete Custom Settings folder
    b. Delete Plugins folder
    5) Go to: /library/receipts/ and delete the following:
    a. AnalogPAL.pkg
    b. AppleIntermediateCodec.pkg
    c. DigitalPAL.pkg
    d. DVCproHDCodec.pkg
    e. FinalCutPro.pkg
    f. FinalCutproHDUpdate4.5.pkg
    g. FinalCutProHelp.pkg
    h. HDVCodec.pkg
    i. IMXCodec.pkg
    j. Uncompressed422.pkg
    k. VideoOutSupport.pkg
    6) Insert the FCP 5.0 upgrade disk and re-install.
    7) Run the OSX Disk Utility
    a. Select the OSX drive
    b. Repair the Disk Permissions.
    c. Reboot.
    8)Run Software update to get back to 5.0.4.

  • DVCPro HD 720p codec ?

    Sorry for the silly question. But I'm wondering is someone can tell me where I can the DVCPro HD 720p codec for Quicktime (MAC). I have some HD quicktimes that are not playing video (just white) and they were exported using this codec. I've searched for it, even on some free codec sights, but haven't had any luck.
    Thanks in advance!

  • DVCPRO HD 720p60 NEED TO EDIT IN FCEXPRESS

    CLIP INFO: DVCPRO HD 720p60, dimensions 960 x 720. On opening in FCE screen says it does not have codec. Upon opening in QT -- pop up says need another compenent to play [does not say what component]. MPEG Streamclip and Voltaic will NOT open video -- just audio. I have quad G5 PowerMac [NOT intel]. Can anyone help with solution or program to download to convert so I can edit in FCE? OS Leopard 10.5.8.
    With apreciation -- Susan

    You need the DVCProHD quicktime codecs. They first appeared with Final Cut Pro 4.5. FCE has never supported that format as far as I know.
    You need someone who has Final Cut Pro 4.5 or higher to convert the files to AIC for you.
    Good luck,

  • Editing DVCPRO HD 720p60 Varicam 59.94 footage for a 29.97 video

    Hi,
    We're having to re-edit a video that was shot on DVCPRO HD 720p60 59.94 Varicam, but was originally dubbed to Digibeta and edited in SD at 29.97.
    We've captured the orginal DVCPRO HD Tapes. My question is what is the best workflow to get a final product of a HD video at 29.97 frames?
    Should my sequence be edited at 720p60 59.94 frames, and then the final video converted to 29.97?
    Should I edit in a DVCPRO 720p60 sequence with a 29.97 timebase?
    Or should I batch convert all the source material to 29.97 fps beforehand?
    I checked out the DVCPRO HD Frame Rate Converter, but this makes new clips without the audio, which I find ridiculous.
    This project may also be edited by someone on a 1.6GHz G4 with FCP 4.5 (I shudder at the thought), so dropping the clips into a 29.97 timeline may not be an option.
    Thanks in advance for any tips on a DVCPRO HD workflow.
    Chris

    what is the best workflow to get a final product of a HD video at 29.97 frames?
    Edit DVCPRO HD 720p at 59.94. Output via an HD capture card to 29.97. You need to go to Digibeta again, right?
    Should my sequence be edited at 720p60 59.94 frames, and then the final video converted to 29.97?
    Yes.
    Should I edit in a DVCPRO 720p60 sequence with a 29.97 timebase?
    No.
    Or should I batch convert all the source material to 29.97 fps beforehand?
    No.
    This project may also be edited by someone on a 1.6GHz G4 with FCP 4.5 (I shudder at the thought), so dropping the clips into a 29.97 timeline may not be an option.
    OK...that is a solid version of FCP, and it supports DVCPRO HD. How will you output?

  • Exporting DVCPRO HD 720p60 Quality Problems with P2 footage.

    I have ingested several clips from P2 cards some shot at 24 and some at 60 using fcp 5.1.4. When I go to export out a QT file I choose file>export>using quick time conversion. Under format options I select DVCPRO HD 720p60 for compression type, but I get no quality settings under the compressor heading to modify. Just Motion, preview and data rate. All of wich are locked... When I hit okay the movie settings dialog box reads Compression:DVCPRO HD 720p60 Quality: Medium Dimensions: 960x720 (1248x702) (Compressor Native). How do I change the quality to best? A friend told me he had the option to change in fcp v 5.0.1. Also, in the Sequence Setting Dialog Box under QuickTime Video Settings I select Advanced and it shows me the compression type DVCPRO HD 720p60 and Motion with Frames per second, but the box under Compressor is blank as well. Is my software faulty or am I going about exporting exporting a high quality QT HD 720p60 file the wrong way?
    Secondly, when I ingest footage from a P2 card does it maintain the frame rate data that it was captured at digitally regardless of the projects audio video settings? I ask this because one project I did the easy setup after I already created a sequence by mistake with dv settings and the footage show a vid rate in the bin at 23.98 fps regardless if it is footage shot at 23.98 or 59.94. When I made a new project using the easy setup from the start and ingested a clip shot at 60 it show in the as vid rate of 59.94 not 239.8 like the first project I made. A tad confused as I feel I am not getting the best quality out of my footage. Does this have to do with setting the camera to 24pn for variable frame rates? Or does the vid rate pull from the project setting?
    As a side note, some of the footage I export appears to be slightly grainy, not sure if this is a result of the setting problems I am having.
    Thank You in Advance!!!
    Best,
    Hans

    If you are trying to export and maintain the same quality you have in the timeline then you don't need to use conversion. Just export to Quick Time Movie and check the box for Use Current Settings and Make Self Contained.

  • DVCPro HD 1080i60 codec mismatch in CS5

    Hello,
    I am trying to render in After Effects to a playback device in my TV station called the Omneon, which specifies it wants DVCPRO HD 1080i60.
    In CS3, this worked perfectly, rendering out a 16x9 render at 1920x1080. However, now that we’ve upgraded to CS5, I get a ‘mismatch’ warning and the render ends up squished horizontally. The warning reads: "Warning: Output file will be resized from 1920x1080 to 1280x1080 to meet format constraints." Can I render a composition as DVCPRO HD 1080i60 and force it to be 1920×1080, not 1280×1080? Any help would be great. Thank you.

    Yes, thank you, Tim! That is very clear. It doesn't make me like it, though! I did a test and it looks normal in the place I am rendering it to..so even though it looks odd to me, it still works.
    I'll send your note to the team so everyone knows why this happened.
    Have a great day!

    Subject: DVCPro HD 1080i60 codec mismatch in CS5
    The mismatch warning is correct.  The DVCPRO HD 1080i60 specification is 1280x1080 at 1.5 PAR.  If you want to put 1920x1080 into your QuickTime file then you will need to choose a different codec, one which supports that size.  (Note that none of the DVCPRO HD codecs support that size.)
    Apple's documentation details the different DVCPRO HD flavors pretty well. ( I assume you're using their codec on a Mac with Final Cut Studio installed.)
    http://documentation.apple.com/en/finalcutpro/professionalformatsandworkflows/index.html#c hapter=3%26section=6%26tasks=true
    So that leaves the question of "Why did After Effects CS3 let you stuff 1920x1080 into a codec that doesn't support that size, while After Effects CS5 won't?"
    Put simply, QuickTime can be lazy, and After Effects CS5 is a little smarter than its predecessors.
    Individual codecs can advertise to applications what dimensions, frame rate, PAR, etc. they will accept.  However, QuickTime itself does not necessarily enforce these restrictions.  When you rendered a QuickTime movie from After Effects CS3 and CS4, it talked directly to the QuickTime API.  Because QuickTime doesn't enforce the format constraints, After Effects didn't complain if the constraints were violated.
    After Effects CS5 doesn't use the QuickTime API directly.  There is no 64-bit version of QuickTime, so in order for Adobe's 64-bit applications to write QuickTime files we had to write an intermediate 32-bit application that could talk to QuickTime.  It's called Adobe QT32 Server, and it runs silently in the background whenever After Effects CS5, Premiere Pro CS5, or Adobe Media Encoder CS5 are running.  When QT32 Server opens a codec to write files, it enforces the advertised constraints.  There are cases where not enforcing the constraints will cause errors or a bad render, so the bottom line is that if a codec tells you that it only supports certain sizes or frame rates, it's best to believe it.
    Thus, when Apple's DVCPRO HD 1080i60 codec tells QT32 Server that it wants 1280x1080, 1.5 PAR, 29.97fps, field separated video, that's the only format QT32 Server will give it.  After Effects will transform the comp frames to those standards before QT32 Server writes the file.  The warning dialog is there to tell you what's happening.
    Clear?  As mud?

  • DVCPRO HD 720p60 Footage.  Field dominance set to "None" Should timeline ?

    Hey all, I got some footage from a new client. I got it on a drive, so I wasnt the editor to pull it from the source tapes. Anyway, the clips read "None" for field dominance. I'm wondering if I should set the timeline sequence to "None" or "Lower" for proper playback. For output it will go to a BetaSp Deck or possibly back to the DVCPRO Deck. Lastly, the clients want to have DVD's made.
    Any suggestions about the proper way to set up appreciated.

    What you need to do is set the Easy Setup to DVCPRO HD 720p60...then make a new sequence...and use what settings it has. Or, if you have FCP 6, when you cut a clip into the timeline it will ask if you want the sequence settings to match that of the clip....click YES.
    Since this is progressive footage, field dominance will be set to NONE by default.

  • Missing projet settings and codecs on Premiere 5.5?

    Missing projet settings and codecs on Premiere 5.5
    when i open a new project in premiere, the most of the projcet settings/codecs are missing

    Hi.
    You can easily restore all of your apps, photos and podcasts.
    If you activated the iCloud service before updating, your Apps will be storaged "in the cloud" and ready to be re-downloaded. Otherwise, go to App Store and choose "Updates". Here, in the top of the screen, is the "Purchased"-button. Tapping here will give you a complete list of all your downloaded Apps, ready to be re-downloaded.
    As for your podcasts, plug your iPhone to your PC/Mac. Single-click your iPhone-device in the menu on the left. Once the iPhone-window appear, go to the tab-menu in the top of the screen and choose 'Podcasts'. From here you can decide which podcasts should be sync with your device.
    I hope this was helpful.
    Best regards.

  • DVCPRO HD 720p60 footage on a citidisk import issues

    I record to my citidisk HD in the DVCPRO HD 720p60. I setup fcp to this exact setting and import my files. Once imported...I get a window that says I should recapture or use media manager to recompress and optimize the footage.
    I use media to recompress the footage"DVCPRO HD 720p60" ...I get and window that says that the compresion I have chosen does not match the original files!
    I open one of the original clips in qt and view the prooperties..and sure enough it is DVCPRO HD 720p60! When i set the recompress to DVCPRO HD 720p30 it works with out a message window. and last....nomatter what I do none of the files play in the timeline! They need to be rendered!!!
    OUCH!!!

    I have no experience with the Cineporter, but did you choose the appropriate EASY SETUP? You need to choose DVCPRO HD 720p60, then DELETE SEQUENCE 1, create a NEW sequence, then use that.
    Does that do it?
    Try that with your DVCPRO HD 720p60 stuff. If that doesn't work (sorry, dunno WHY you are getting that message. Must have to do with the Cineporter) then try DVCPRO HD 720p30, create a new sequence and go from there.

  • DVCPRO HD 720p60 playback problems

    Hi all.
    Started to edit some footage shot on DVCPRO HD 720p60 (1280x720) and I cannot get it to playback on my Westinghouse HD monitor through my Blackmagic HD Extreme Card.
    I get playback on the desktop but image on the monitor is still framed. I get fine playback in other formats so I wonder if it is a RAM issue. In Motion with the same footage I get full playback through the same card if I do a RAM preview.
    Thoughts?

    I had some problems with this same thing a while back. You can check this thread but I never really solved my issue. Same thing, I could only get one frame to show up.

  • Dropped Frame Errors When Time Remapping DVCPRO HD 720p60 Clips

    Wondering if this is common due to FW800 throughput limitations or abnormal behavior.
    I'm editing several DVCPROHD 720p60 projects and cutting them in FCStudio is like butter on a Dual 2 G5 connected to a FW800 G-Raid. I needed to time remap a clip and lo and behold, some dropped frame errors. Recreated and retimed several times with the same error. Dropping down the playback quality fixes this but wondering if it would be a normal occurance to see this with DVCPRO HD footage.
    Any thoughts?
    Dual 2 G5, 17 & 15 PB   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   Monitors, G-Raids, and Cameras, oh my!

    It may be normal... a lot depends on which machine you're using, but If it drops frames, render it...

  • Missing .wmv and .avi codecs in AME CS6 Master Collection installed!!?

    I have AME CS6 with Master Collection... the Help documents say I should have codecs for .wmv and .avi, but they are missing from my installation... how do I get these codecs?
    Thanks all!

    How do I export an AVI file from a Mac?
    Using CS6, Media Encoder 6.0.2 on Mac OS 10.8.2.
    You would need to buy an application called Flip4Mac from Telestream.  There's a free tryout version, but it only transcodes half the clip.
    With it, you can transcode to any sort of Windows-centric media.

  • [SOLVED] Missing some important Mplayer codecs?

    Hi!
    I've used 'genkipseudo's PKGBUILD of Mplayer to enable CoreAVC support, but it seems I'm lacking some of the codecs I used to have when I used the normal install of Mplayer. I can no longer play quicktime files in firefox (only sound). For normal playback (not using firefox) WMV doesn't work and some avi's won't play either. I tried to install the win32codecs from aur http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=14946, but that didn't fix the problem.
    Can anyone see what codecs I'm missing by looking at the PKGBUILD? I'm still kinda noob so I don't understand compiling completely yet. This is the build I used:

    Nope, didn't work. Get this message:

    Edit: Nvm... I commented out some "tweaks" in my mplayer config file and now everything works as it's supposed to, even quicktime in firefox.
    I guess my capabilities are somewhat lower than my eagerness to try new things out.
