I just updated to new final cut pro x 10.1.1 and i am also on mavericks so but on my editing timeline i was trying to color grade using magic bullet looks but i am having problem with it. when it comes back to tcp x it's black.

I just updated to the new final cut pro x 10.1.1 and i am also on mavericks so but on my editing timeline i was trying to color grade using magic bullet looks but i am having problem with it. When i send a sample to MBL and color grade it , it comes back to final cut pro x all black even after render. By the way on the MBL i am using the GPU rendering, I used before like 4months ago and it was fine. And i don't like to use the CPU because it very slow.

What is the frame rate of the project? At what frame rate was the media recorded? What frame size?
What are the audio settings?
What are the specs of the machine, in particular how much RAM, how is the hard drive connected, etc.?
If possible, post screenshots of the inspector for the project.
It could be related to the audio frequency?

NEED HELP Deciding. new final cut and a powerpc4

I have a power mac G4 and I want to know will the new final cut package work on it? My pc has a radeon 9000 pro, dual 1.25 processors,, memory 1.25.
i just want to know if final cut and the other programs will work on it. I do not do HD and when i do i will buy another but for Sd is this ok to run and buy the new fc.
thanks everyone who can help

I'd think you will be able to run FCS 2. Your computer is above all of the minimum specs, only wild card here is your graphics card. It has enough VRAM ... just not listed in the compatible cards. Bet it works OK though. Look at the Motion and Color minimums. FCP will work without a hitch in any event, and so should compressor, LiveType, and DVD SP. You could upgrade it if you find it lacking but I'd give it a go with the card you have to see if you're OK first.

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.

Ok, I thought I could do a project in my new Final Cut Pro X. I got everything downloaded on Final Cut and I made my Project. The problem is is has taken so long to render that I don't have time. How do I download the video from Final Cut to Imovie?

Your media is stored in Final Cut Events folder > "name of event" > original media. The Final Cut Events folder is in your movies folder or at the root level of an external drive if you are using one to store your media. Simply open iMovie and under file menu select import movies. Navigate to the original media folder and import your clips to Imovie event library.

We've just downloaded Maverick and the new final cut 10.1. On two separate computers it has crashed and we have lost our entire project that we were editing. Not sure if it is a final cut problem or maverick. Any suggestions on how to get the timeline

We just installed maverick and the new final cut. On 2 separate computers we have had it crash while using final cut and have lost the project. Now we are reading that our time machine is not working with maverick. Any suggestions on how to get timeline back from the new final cut? Thought it was suppose to save automatically.

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...

Macbook pro does not support Final Cut Pro preview on external monitor?

I have been editing on Final Cut Pro from my imac for approx 1 year with an external monitor attached with no problems. I recently bought a macbook pro, for Final Cut Pro editing, and discovered that the monitor does not work. The Final Cut Pro preview on the external monitor freezes and in the preview pane of FCP it flick between two images.
I have been reading around some forums, and have seen a couple of people with the same problem.
Anyone have a suggestion on how to run the external monitor with FCP?
Thanks!

You have probably already done it but ensure you have updated the OS and Quicktime prior to attempting to instal Final Cut Studio.
I recently had a hard drive crash and after installing the new hard drive it would not read the OS installation disc. I ended up using an external drive case and installed the OS on the drive from a different Mac Book, then reinstalled the hard drive in the other Mac Book. Then it booted right up. I updated all the original software before attempting to install any additional software.
Everyone kept saying it wouldn't install due a possibly defective optical drive and I can't say why but it wasn't the drive. As soon as I had the system up and running again the optical drive functioned flawlessly.
I hope this helps you.

Final Cut Express, Preview not working in Capture

I've just purchased Final Cut Express, and have installed it in my G5 iMac. When I try to download film from my Sony TRV 17, I am unable to do so. The preview screen has a message "Preview Disabled", and I am unable to capture anything. The capture controls seem to control the recorder just fine. Anyone have a simple answer?

I'd tried running the camera into the computer, and only using the internal hard drive, no change.
When the camera is off and I start the program I get a message stating that the camera is not connected, but as soon as I turn the VCR on and hit the retry button, the program starts. Which easy set up option should I use if not FW basic?
Try daisy-chaining the camera to the drive. Do not
use FW basic with that camera. Make sure the camera
is turned on in VCR mode, and reboot. Launch the
application. Does it see the camera at start up? If
not, try it with the LaCie disconnected, and see if
it works directly into the computer.

Why new final cut X is so restrictive connected clips? I do not see benefit.

I am coming from final cut 7 and I have no idea why new final cut X is so restrictive in having primary storyline and connected clips. I loved how in FC7 all clips were independent in timeline and gave you freedom to move and organize your clips however you wanted.
Now I have to take extra steps or jump through hoops to move clips around becaused they are connected to primary storyline. Like I have to create secondary storylines. Really??
I do not see any benefit to connected clips except that it automatically follows primary storyline when you move primary clip around - which most of time I do not want it to do. We should be able to turn this off because I do not see any benefit to connected clips with primary storyline.
FCX is dictating how we organize clips on timeline which is way more restrictive than FC7. This is just wrong.
Also bring back enable tracks. Why in the world did they remove tracks. Tracks work and is easier to visualize and organize clips in timeline. Like if I wanted to disable audio or video for a track it was just one click in FC7. Now there are extra steps in FCX They should enable this for people who are use to tracks.
They should really talk scold to whoever mad scientist who wanted to make FCX more restrictive than FC7 and impose their workflow on everyone else.
I like magnetic timeline where you can move clips around and other clips will automatically move to make room for it. This save time.
So can we disable connected clips and let us enable tracks just like better FC7?

The first Quantel NLE, back in the 80ies, was mimicing the Moviola - showing vertical stripes of 'film'.
So, you could ask "Why have they changed to horizontal?"
On editing film, you wrote with some white wax pen an X onto it, to indicate a dissolve....
So, you could ask "Why have they changed that to drag'n drop grey boxes?"
On recording they hold a clapper into the cam, to 'sign' the time-code.
So, you could ask "Why have they changed that to meta-tags, hidden invisible in the file?"
Aside doing compos ('Brady Bunch', '24'), there are no 'tracks' in no movie.
In any movie, there's always just a single storyline...
If you like to apply 'variations', get customed to FCPX' Auditions.
If you like to adjust cut-aways, get customed to the various trim/ripple/nudge options of FCPX.
If you like to pre-select clips, get customed to the Events-concept and its endless options (you can even abuse to create 'bins'!) to tag clips.
If you like to 'pre-comp', get customed to FCPX' compounds and their own timelines.
It is a different, a new way of editing. That simple.
As others told you: nobody forces you to adopt it.
There's AP, there's DaVinci Resolve .... and many others.
And you even can Position a clip...

How many registration keys come with the new Final Cut Studio

Hi I'm thinking of buying the new final cut studio and am trying to find out how many registration keys come with the box. I have 2 others in the family that would use it on their comps as well, and my friend had gotten the previous version of final cut studio 2 (final cut pro 6) and said it came with 3 keys inside, which would be great for me. So I'm just making sure that's true. Thanks.
Also you can bring final cut pro 6 files from another computer onto a computer with final cut pro 7 and still work on them right?

Hello Gibbs,
Welcome to the forum.
Re: your question.
Your friend is a pathological lier (or delusional - sometimes it's hard to tell the difference).
FCP is licensed for one laptop and one desktop as long as:
1. Both machines are owned by YOU (your inlaws don't count as you)
and
2. They are not used at the same time.
If your family wants FCS, time for them to purchase their own copies. (Apple has dropped the price so low that even Junior High School students can afford their own copies now.)
Yes, FCP6 files will open without issue on FCP7. The reverse is not true.
Have fun.

Spinning ball all the time? new final cut?

Hi there,
After spend 300 dollars in the brand new final cut X, i notice that i also have a free spinning colourfull beachball?! yes in the previous version i never add so many hang ups and so time waiting for some operations, i have, as u can say the best comfiguration tha a imac can have until a year ago, 16 g of ram and a i7 processor, well the best on a imac.
Now and after a expatation i notice that its far for the desire result and i need help to try to resulve this bugs or not.
Hope to have any news, from someone and especially an update to fix from Apple

I'm running it on a 15" MacBook Pro and I get constant beach balls, they seem to get more frequent the longer I have the app open, and ultimately I have to force close and restart my computer because the whole system bogs down. Very aggravating. I have a Core 2 Duo and only 4 GB RAM, so I understand it would run slow, but after about an hour of editing, sometimes less, it becomes unusable.

I'm thinking of using Final Cut Pro to straighten slightly crooked footage and then re-import back to iMovie to complete the video. Does this have any impact on image quality?

As your rotate the image, you will begin to see black edges. So, as Tom implies, the image must be scaled up to hide those voids. If you shot 4k ad are editing in a HD timeline, no problem, lots of room to spare. If you shot 1080 and are editing in a 1080 timeline, you will run into issues at a certain point. However, if your 1080 project is going to be transcoded to 720 or ye olde DVD you won't notice any deterioration at all.

Will the new final cut pro x work with my Final cut pro version 6.0.6 data

will the new final cut pro x work with my Final cut pro version 6.0.6 data

Thanks Tom.
So I will need upgrade to FCP 7 first, then convert to an XML file in 6.0.6, then convert to another file that FCP X can read? I have a lot of half done projects that need finishing. Is this process very complex and time consuming?
Maybe I should be approaching this from a different angle. The reason I am asking is that I now need to upgrade to a new Mac book pro and have been told that I cant run final cut pro 6.0.6 on the new models using maverick. Is this true?

Opening an old FCp project in new Final cut?

I was working on a previous version and recently got the new Final Cut X but now my project won't open? Any ideas?

Unfortunately, this is just not supported in FCX, and Apple has stated they have no plans to add it in. There are some third party developers working on solutions, but no products or timelines have been announced yet.
The best thing to do is to finish your project in FCP and use FCX for new projects.
Eventually, converters may become available to port your old projects to FCX.
