Non intrelace setup for PAL

hello, I'm new to whole mac environment, switched to Final Cut Studio a week ago. And I got big problem. For 99% of my footage I work in progressive mode. I use AJA Kona3 to capture from digital Beta, I got a bit of problem with fields. I capture using PAL preset - its 625i25 ( 720x576 ) - Aspect CCIR 601. It grabs frames as full ( not interlaced ). But still on the timeline they are set as interlaced with Upper fields. and I get jiggy edges, so I have to change properties in every shot from Upper to None. Then it looks ok. I know I'm doing something wrong - just cant put my finger on it.
Thanks in advance.

wow, lightning fast response,
The problem is that I cant use anything else then 625i25 - thats how AJA describes it.
This is how I got A/V settings set up
Sequence preset :
Frame size : 720x576 CCIR 601 / DV PAL (5:4) - I use non square pixels for every comp
Pixel Aspect Ratio: PAL - CCIR 601(720x576)
Field Dominance: NONE
Editing Timebase: 25
QT video Settings
Compressor: Uncompressed 8-bit 4:2:2
Capture Preset
Frame size : 720x576 CCIR 601 / DV PAL (5:4)
QT video settings
digitizer: Aja 8-bit Digitizer
input: 625i25 (720x576) - i cant make new presets ( and in that resolution i got only 625i25
in Kona3 Control Panel i got 625i25 set as Primary ( Native ) format. and again I don't have 625p25 to pick.

Easy Setup for PAL

Hi,
I am using a JVC GZ-HD 7 Everio in Switzerland and I am filming in 1440CBR PAL and downloading with a firewire directly to FCE 4, and I setup my Easy Setup to Format:HD / Rate:(all rates) / Use: HDV-Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i50.
Is this a good setup or should I choose something different ( I am looking for the best quality possible since I am selling Gym DVDs)
Thank you
Michael

I have the same (fantastic) cam (from 2000 and use still the same batteries!) and use DV-pal DV Converter. Now it is also possible to capture direct from camera (thus no tape running!) that save time. In iMovie you can do the same but after ending the direct-capture, iMovie need a lot of time to make thumbnals. Or, when you pause for a while and want to go further you have to wait for very long if you direct recording/capturing was long too! Sometimes is that not possible!
Succes!

Best setup for a non-Mac file server?

I have a dual xeon server, with a SATA RAID5 I want to use as a file server in a cross-platform environment.
*What I've tried and the issues...*
At first I considered using Windows 2003 (Win2k3) but Services for Macintosh (SFM) is an older version of AFP and thus only supports 31 character filenames. With all our Macs supporting SMB/Samba/CIFS and Apple touting that "Macs and PCs can co-exist harmoniously on the same network" I figured I would give that a try.
SMB doesn't work.
Sure I can create a connection, but transferring files is a completely different story. I'm trying to backup application and system data, but companies such as Adobe and Apple have named some of their files with special characters that can't be transferred over SMB. I know NTFS doesn't support these characters, but I though a Linux box using SMB would work fine. It doesn't. It's the protocol which keeps me from transferring the data. I end up with the lovely error message of "You cannot copy some of these items to the destination because their names are too long or contain invalid characters for the destination..." (what's sad is, if you google for " because their names are too long or contain invalid characters for the destination" you only get 6 results.)
So I thought I would give NFS a try. Apple says "Viewed from Mac OS X, [connecting via NFS] is just like connecting to an Apple or Windows server." No. It's not. NFS shares don't even show up in the Finder's Network listing. There are also a pile of other hurdles which are only tackled by savvy, command-line using users.
So that leaves me with AFP. Win2k3 doesn't support filenames longer than 31 characters, and Win2k8 is dropping SFM altogether. Off to choose a *nix flavor, but that requires Netatalk. It hasn't been updated in years, it has many bad performance reviews... and most distros have removed it. I can download and install it. Oh, but that requires I get the kernel source files. Then I have to create an RPM an that's not working... now I'm several levels deep in trying to figure out how to get Netatalk working and I'm not even sure it will work.
*What's the best setup for a non-Mac file server?*
FreeNAS seems promising, but it's in alpha/beta and they have all sorts of warnings regarding potential data loss. Sure there's ExtremeZ-IP, but I really don't want to spend $675 do something Apple claims OS X can already do. I can put just about any non-Mac OS on this thing... what's the best way to set it up so it works?
Thanks much.

Rick may be right because although i didnt think of it before i tend to have notoriuosly long classnames for my php classes and i have used samba on occasion (when rsync is out of the question for one reason or another) and never had a problem. I use kubuntu (feisty at the moment )with an ext3 filesystem. if i have a chance this evening ill give it a try and see what happens.
You could also possibly use FUSE to use an ssh filesystem for the shares... i don tknow how that would figure in your back up though.
Also if worse comes to worse you could tar or dmg the the necessary files... just some thoughts.
Ill be interested to know what you end up implementing....
OH one last thought... Compile Darwin from source and use that as your server

Create a 1-click setup for a Remote Desktop session for non-tech users

Hi everyone,
I know how to configure a VPN or use port forwarding for VNC, ARD, etc. and know about iChat's Screen Sharing feature and sites like LogMeIn. But I'm looking for something special here. This is the situation:
• A user calls me for help and I would prefer a Remote Desktop session
• He's usually behind a NAT router which hasn't been set up to allow remote access
• He's absolutely NOT tech savy
So I'd like to have an easy way to allow me to initiate a Remote Desktop session (ARD/VNC) with as little user interaction needed as possible. I don't want to walk him through reconfiguring his router on the phone!
I was thinking of using iChat's Screen Sharing first. But I'd need to create a jabber account, save iChat's preference file, maybe pack it into a little "Installer" and mail it to him. So all he needs to do is double-click it and run iChat afterwards and accept me.
But this is a little too much for my taste and I'm wondering if there isn't already a "best practice" or something like that. Any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks a lot!
Björn

I've recently started using TeamViewer. If you can walk a person through going to http://www.teamviewer.com and clicking on "Start Full Version" and getting them to download it and run it, then you're good to go. It's cross-platform both ways so you can control a Mac from a PC and a PC from a Mac in addition to M-M and P-P. If they're on a PC, the download is an executable which when they double-click it, asks them if they'd like to run it or install it. Just have them run it and in a few seconds they will have an ID number and random password generated that they can tell you over the phone. Then you type it into your TeamViewer app and you're controlling their screen. If they're on a Mac, the download is a disk image so you have them mount it and then just run the app directly from the disk image. Once you're connected you can fully install the app for future use or just help them out. It's pretty much the simplest cross-platform control system I've found to deal with situations where it's not already setup for me to support. On top of all that, it's free for personal use!

VPN Client and Setup for RV042

Is there a definitive setup for a small VPN using the RV042?
Situation is 2 remote users wish to get access to a non server (W7P) pc to access files.
The end point doesn't have a static IP but I've put in a DYNDNS.org so it reports back the IP and I can access the router at least from outside.
I can setup VPN users but is there more to do?
Wish to use QVPN client or advise alternative.
Appreciate all input.
Thanks
Bruce

Bruce,
QuickVPN normally works well for what you wish to do. Make sure that the Windows Firewall is ON in Windows 7 and Windows Vista clients. Turn off all antivirus and third party firewall software as well at least until you have verified that you have a successful connection. It is very easy to set up, just create a username and password in the router. If you run into trouble, post here or call your local Small Business Support Center:

Mail.app: non-parallel structure for incoming versus outgoing servers

Manual setup of POP accounts has a non-parallel structure for incoming versus outgoing servers.
To review: for each account you must enter setup data for a single POP (incoming) server, but you are offered multiple choices for SMTP (outgoing) servers, and Mail.app supports sharing a single SMTP server setup among multiple accounts.
Why?
Why not just offer distinct setups for each account in each direction?   There must be a good reason for all this extra structure…. yes?
More specifically: What are implications for multiple accounts, e.g.
      [email protected]
      [email protected]
using the same outgoing server?   It seems to me that Mail.app encourages you use a single SMTP server setup for both, am I correct?    But this seems to undermine proper security. I think each account should uses its own credentials for both incoming and outgoing, yes?
In Mail.app V8.2, shipped with MacOS 10.10.2, Mail.app offers an opportunity to set up a second distinct SMTP server (in the above example, for [email protected]) but the text boxes for username and password refuse to accept text. Is this just my experience, a local problem? Or is it observed by others? If so… a new way of enforcing sharing of SMTP setups, or a bug?
I'm very curious about the long-term Mail.app design philosophy in this regard, but this is not just curiosity: I'm having trouble with multiple email accounts after upgrading to 10.10.2 In each case, when I try to set up multiple accounts on a single mail server.
I've done quite a bit of searching for explanations of mail.app's design, without success. It is very possible I've missed some relevant explanations. If so, please provide links and accept my apologies.
TIA

EWA setup for EP.

Hello All,
I am trying to make configuration for EWA setup for EP.
EP version is 7 on windows64bit and Solman version is 4.0 on Solaris64 Bit with basis and abap SP on 14 level.
When i refereed to previous blogs and notes it says we need to install Wiley intro-scope agent in EP and set up diagnostics in Solman.
Can any 1 please let me know how to move forward. I need to install Wiley intros-8. How to install this on already installed EP.
Regards,
Ravi

You will need to install a Wily agent and a SOLMAN Diagnostics agent on your EP system. These agents will report the data to your SOLMAN system. You will need to have Diagnostics configured in your SOLMAN system.
This data will be used for generating an EWA for a JAVA system, like your portal. You can find all the relevant guides on how to set this up at http://service.sap.com/diagnostics

FCP & QuickTime DvcPro HD Digitizer 720p 25 for PAL Big World Missing!!!!

Now,
after I've been days on DvxUser forum, tried various solution found there I'm ending up with a simple question as an HVX200 user:
- What's the problem with the PAL Huge World, Apple? As far as I know my International clients when ask for an Ntsc copy is for US or Japan (the other few that use it are out of the big Business).
- So WHY Apple, that is in the video/film business since the begging of NLE systems, always forget? or it's late in developping Pal solutions?
From Panasonic Q&A P2 site:
Q5 : Can the AG-HVX200 output the SD or HD signal through the IEEE1394 terminal?
A : The AG-HVX200 can output the SD or HD signal through the IEEE1394 terminal according to the menu setting.
Select the format in the "REC FORMAT" item of CAMERA menu.
In the native format, 720/24PN, 720/25PN or 720/30PN, the AG-HVX200 cannot output the signal of camera picture through the IEEE1394 terminal. In this case, record a picture on a P2 card once and then playback it.
When output the signal recorded on the P2 card, the signal is output through the IEEE1394 terminal in its recorded format and cannot be output through the IEEE1394 terminal in the up-converted format or the down-converted one.
- The only easy setup for Log & Capture DVCPRO HD is 1080i50. That's it!
- While in Ntsc has 1080i60 and all 720p: 24/30/60.
Even with the Sequences setup!! Thanks to some guys that wrote a great pdf and also an Xml file for a sequence 720p 25 and 50...
So the HUGE World of Pal users has to help themself....
Hopefully if these 30 glorious years are just the begging, the next will be also HD PAL years!!

Hi Shane,
thanks for your point of view, I always appreciate your advices in this forum.
Back to issue, the problem is Capture (digitizer) that is limited to 1080i50 not for Compressor (if you look inside the Capture Preset 1080i 50), so you can't use any other option than P2 card or Firestore to get the other HD Pal formats.
I also want to share (may be someone else already did it, but as in latin "Repetita juvant") the link on that helpful site on FCP and DvcPro HD, and Hvx200 also. He has done a great job for all of us pal'ers:
http://www.aulich-adamski.de/wp-content/720p50HVX200en.pdf
So the points are:
- The world is going HD? Yes! So our business!
- ok Hdv has been adopted by major prosumer camera maker.
- the DvcPro HD Pal codec is not that new (the Varicam, the 900, etc).
- the HVX200 in just few months, as you can read on DvxUser forum, is very popular in all of the application (indie, commercial, music video, doc, feature film or tv series) and the results are very good.
- Is FCP a pro application? Yes, so...support professional people.
- It's much more easier to work in FCP with DvcPro codec than Hdv.
- I've seen many posts of Hvx users that were asking for a live capture solution apart from Firestore and similar. We are in that group, as we've to shoot hours of live content.
- The new Mac Book Pro cannot (by now) accept P2 Cards 'cause the express slot. So we were buying two of them for HD work but we put them on hold and keep the PBook. So the alternative for MBP is capturing live via firewire, but limited in Pal market.
- Last but not least: Panasonic DvcPro HD Fcp plugin Frame Converter (for VFR) does NOT work in Pal even if you capture through P2 card.
May be is also Panasonic that is slow in updating Pal tools, who knows, but the only other alternative (that you can find on the site above) is using a Component HD card to capture the other formats, that means that you have to carry in studio/location at least a G5...
Finally, as I'm not a developper: does it take that long and is that heavy work to translate a QT digitizer codec from 24p to 25p? or from 60 to 50?
I'm pretty sure that if you do an online poll for Hvx users to pay 5 euro each one to have that codecs done by some developper, they will !!!
Take care,
piero

in that order type i want by default system has to pickup the NONS(nonsaleable) storage location
it present right now system is pickup saleable storage location
but in master i have difine both the storage location in system
so how can i do dafult setup for this order type to pickup NONS (non saleable) storage location

Hi Ashok,
The picking location is determined based on the shipping point, the delivering plant, and the storage condition for the material as defined in the material master.
Please do the customization as above.

Optimum HD setup for Server on Mac Pro

We are currently running Tiger Server on a Dual 2 G5 and are preparing to migrate to Leopard Server on a new 8-core Mac Pro (I wanted an Xserve, but given the tight purse strings lately, will happily settle for the Mac Pro!!). I will be doing a clean install and then migrating settings, accounts, etc. over to the new machine. I've been trying to figure out the best hard drive setup, but have quickly become confused by the overwhelming abundance of (and occasionally conflicting) recommendations out there.
I've seen some who swear by a RAID 1+0 set up {two sets of mirrored drives that are then striped...or is it a set of striped drives that are then mirrored?!? You can see my dilemma...}, while others swear off of such a setup; lots of STRONG recommendations in favor of a small OS disk and second data disk (perhaps a solid state drive for the OS and a regular drive for the data?); even recommendations for multiple drives with 2 partitions that are RAIDed in ways that made my eyes bleed just trying to figure them out.
Bottom line: what would you recommend hard drive wise for a Mac Pro that's going to be a primary server for a small private school? Assume anything is possible (within reason--obviously a 16 bay external RAID is out of the question), and, if possible, include specific drive recommendations (I've seen LOTS of posts steering me as far away from Seagate as I can get because of high failure rates / firmware issues...any thoughts on the WD Caviar Black vs. the WD RE3 Enterprise?).
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

There are so many conflicting recommendations because there are so many valid configurations. Not every option is right for every case, and you need to consider your own use case to determine the best option.
Let's start off with:
I've seen some who swear by a RAID 1+0 set up {two sets of mirrored drives that are then striped...or is it a set of striped drives that are then mirrored?
RAID 1+0 is a series of mirrored sets that are striped together. This contrasts with RAID 0+1 which is sets of striped disks that are mirrored. The difference is subtle but there are slight differences in fault tolerance and performance in a degraded state (e.g. when one disk has failed).
lots of STRONG recommendations in favor of a small OS disk and second data disk
That is sometimes preferred, although it does depend, again, on usage pattern. If you expect to have a lot of data access then this can be advantageous.
Bottom line: what would you recommend hard drive wise for a Mac Pro that's going to be a primary server for a small private school
A 'primary server' doing what?
Open Directory authentication: doesn't matter since disk is barely used, so any RAID format is going to work equally well, as well a non-RAID setup with a good backup process.
Home Directories: This may benefit from separating data from system, but you need to consider how much disk space you need.
Network Services (such as DNS, DHCP, NAT, etc.): Doesn't matter since disk is irrelevant for these services.
Other services: You need to be specific about what this server is doing in order to determine the best disk setup.
Assume anything is possible (within reason--obviously a 16 bay external RAID is out of the question
Well since you mention that, what IS the limit?
Most specifically, if you're considering external arrays, what is your goal as far as capacity is concerned? You can get external arrays from 500GB to silly numbers of petabytes depending on how much you need and are prepared to pay.
Also if you're going external, once you go over 4 drives, neither RAID 1+0 nor RAID 0+1 is ideal. You'd more likely be looking at RAID 5 which yields a better usable space ratio.
RAID 0+1 and RAID 1+0 both require 2n disks for n capacity - e.g. to get 2TB of usable space you need 4TB of disks). RAID 5 uses an n+1 ratio, so those same four 1TB disks would result in 3TB of usable space). RAID 5 has an extra processor overhead, though, so generally requires specific hardware such as a RAID controller rather than leaving it up to the OS.
include specific drive recommendations
If you want to sleep at night, whatever drives Apple supply.
Sure, other drives will work in the Mac Pro, but for sheer reliability in a server, stick with Apple.
If budgets don't stretch to Apple-branded drives then just about any enterprise drive will work fine (don't try to skimp on cheap desktop drives since they're not designed for server loads).
I've seen LOTS of posts steering me as far away from Seagate as I can get because of high failure rates / firmware issues...any thoughts on the WD Caviar Black vs. the WD RE3 Enterprise?
Seagate really screwed up last year with a firmware bug (and, more importantly, how they mis-managed the solution), but that's history now, except for the people who got bit and have long memories. Consequently they would be on my list of vendors if I were buying non-Apple drives.
The Caviar Black is a desktop drive, so nix that. The RE3 would be OK.
Also bear in mind that if you are looking for an external enclosure (so you can handle more data than you can put in the server), many enterprise RAID solutions have their own limitations on drive support so you might need to consider that before you buy any drives.

DMZ setup for SBS 2011

Any suggestions on a low end router capable of providing a decent firewall that would begin to meet the security requirements needed for a DMZ setup? (example Cisco PIX 506 Firewall)
And whether it can be done with just a couple of wireless routers, one with an enabled DMZ? My initial thought on this is that the standard consumer wireless routers have an eight character password which is far from secure enough to do
much of anything. (brainstorm details below)
Thought is to place a web form login page in the DMZ... add a read only file to test the web form access. Nothing fancy and for now, it does nothing except verify that user can login or is denied login. Verified login goes nowhere except
"Success". Build something later when the first part works (if it works).
Plan is to exist over two lans (or IP sets within the domain - one set is 192.168.01.xxx and the other set is 192.168.02.xxx) and set up bypass rules between the two. The Lan 192.168.01.xxx would house the DMZ (with HTTP port 80 access) and the
Lan 192.168.02.xxx would house the internal domain (SBS 2011 DC running VPN, Sharepoint etc, HyperV server with virtuals running SQL and TFS, and laptop access). The 192.168.01.xxx is a guest lan for non-domain (non-hostile) members.
So my questions:
1) Can the HTTP header be forwarded from SBS 2011 router rules on the router firewall to hit the second lan (http requests from 192.168.02.xxx would be routed over to 192.168.01.xxx)?
2) Can an inexpensive router like the PIX ($30 used) above solve the "crack the eight character router password issue?" (Maybe I just need a newer router in general where the passwords are more secure?)
Currently RWW open, SSL open, VPN (1723) open, 25 open... all other ports closed. [Does this create any snafu's?]

While all this is good information, I would clarify one point
Port 80 should not be open and port forwarded as it's the single most commonly attacked port
Users should be taught to come in via port 443, using https

Hi,
I have deployed similar setups for clients. The main thing is the quality of the router/firewall facing the internet. I assume when you talk about open ports, you mean open via NAT (network address translation) otherwise, you are leaving the firewall to
do the hard work. I am a fan of Draytek 2830 adsl routers. They also have cable routers if you connect via cable. These are much more expensive than $30 - about £230 in the UK. Cheaper models by other manufacturers are available, but what you should look for
is a fully customisable NAT server (also called virtual server on some cheaper models) Have a look at Zyxel and TP-Link professional routers. Passwords with these routers can be as complex as you need.
I assume you have a static IP address or block of static IP addresses for your public wan address. Using dynamic DNS will create problems with spam filters if you are using an Exchange/smtp server on your SBS server to send email and is not recommended.
SBS needs to be able to access your server via ports 25, 80, 443 and 987. You may also want to use 1726 if you need a VPN connection. Use NAT to map these ports from WAN to LAN. for example if your WAN address is XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX and your LAN subnet
is 192.168.1.0 with your SNS server IP address set to 192.168.1.1 and your router IP is 192.168.1.254, then you would add the following to the NAT address table:
WAN XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX port 25 to LAN 192.168.1.1 port 25
WAN XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX port 80 to LAN 192.168.1.1 port 80
WAN XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX port 443 to LAN 192.168.1.1 port 43
WAN XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX port 987 to LAN 192.168.1.1 port 987
This will provide secure access to these ports from WAN to LAN and will enable SBS remote web access, SBS Exchange Email and Outlook Web Access. Computers connecting will require either a third party domain certificate (eg from Verisign or
GoDaddy etc) or the self issued certificate (found in the public document folder on the SBS server) to be distributed to machines to enable them to use this remote access.
For the non secure subnet, you will need another router connected to a LAN port on your main router. Configure the WAN address of the secondary router to be 192.168.1.253 and the LAN subnet to be anything suitable but different from your primary
LAN, eg 192.168.2.0. On your main router, set the WAN IP address of your secondary router (192.168.1.253) on the DMZ. This opens the WAN port of the secondary router to the internet but isolates it from your primary LAN subnet.
This setup is suitable for a secure network with public wifi access via the secondary router. Use the secondary router to restrict bandwidth, download types adult content etc. to prevent public abuse of your Wifi network, but still making it suitble
for smatphones to connect.
I hope this is clear, but if you have any questions, post again.

Linda

Best disk setup for Premiere CS6

Hello,
I want to improve my disk setup for Adobe Premiere CS6 because I got long loading times.
My current setup:
Crucial RealSSD C300 60GB SSD for the program
Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB HDD for media and Media Cache Files
Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB HDD for projects and exports
My planed setup:
new: Kingston SSDNow V300 120GB SSD for the program
Crucial RealSSD C300 60GB SSD for Media Cache Files
2x Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB HDD with Raid 1 for media
new: Seagate Barracuda 2 TB HDD for projects and exports
Is this the best solution to improve the performance?
Thanks
Tim

What is the advantage of getting an extra HDD for the exports?
None from a performance point of view.
And should I use the 60GB SDD for the Media Cache Files?
That is much too small. Depending on your projects, you will need at least 256 GB, but possibly even more.
With only 350 GB of media and projects, my media cache is already 72 GB.

Help with setup for roaming on 3502 and 1252

Hello everyone, I have a bit suggest about setting up roaming without having it connect different SSID. I figuring when I was at Rochester Institute of Technology college when I walk in hall, I seen my phone wifi signal was never disconnected but seen 1142 (I figured it out what design look like) change from green to blue in every location. My major is Information & Computing Studies at NTID.
My current setup at home:
1. Internet to Untangle Firewall to Cisco Catalyst Express 500 with PoE to two 3502i at home
2. Cisco Catalyst Express 500 to Cisco Catalyst Express 500 with PoE to two 1252 at garage
3. 3502i and 1252 are running Autonomous IOS or Standalone
And also we have smartphones, apple ipads and iphones, and a laptops.
I want to set the same SSID so they should automatically connect via roaming to any location like RIT and even dual band should work too. I do not have Virtual WLC or Windows Server (I should get Windows Server 2008 R2 or 2012 from RIT and I can download virtual WLC too). Will it work without WLC and server?
In case, If it is not possible without WLC then I would like to know what requirement list so I can add to that to make it work.

Isn't 802.1x can be used with Windows Server that have RADIUS? Are you sure I leave these same configuration so it will roaming itself or client?
I would stick with channels 1/6/11, those are the standard non overlapping channels for the 2.4GHz side. For 5GHz, any channel you pick should work as the channels in 5GHz do not overlap.
And yes, so long as the SSID, PSK and VLAN mapping (if you are doing sub-interfaces) are the same, and there is some overlapping of the AP signals, your clients should roam between the AP just fine.
HTH,

Best "Easy Setup" for AVCHD .mts files

I'm on a MacBook Pro in 10.5.8 with FCP 7, all footage is shot by a Canon HF S100 at 1920x1080 60i. Is there a best way to set up the Easy Setup for the AVCHD files?
I currently have it as:
Format: (all)
Rate: (all rates)
Use: Custom Setup
Sequence Preset: HDV 1080i60
Capture Preset: HDV Apple ProRes 422
Device Control: non-controllable device
Video Playback: none
Audio Playback: Default.
Is there a better way to do it than this?
Thanks,
Dave

Yup,
It costs but it's supposed to be very worth it on saved time and trouble.
http://www.clipwrap.com
From the website:
rewraps - doesn't transcode
ClipWrap rewraps the video samples from your existing m2t, mts, m2ts files without re-encoding them. This means blazingly fast convert speeds and no image degradation.
Transcodes too!
Need your files in ProRes, AIC, DNxHD or DVCProHD? ClipWrap can seamlessly convert your files. Don't worry about frame size changes, gamma shifts, or any of the other problems resulting from mismatched settings - ClipWrap chooses all those based on the source file's format.
Automatic format detection
ClipWrap speaks your camera's language so you don't have to. It automatically parses the file's format and chooses the proper output format, so there's no hassle trying to determine the proper settings (frame rate, image size, gamma levels, etc).
Full timecode support
Timecode is recreated in the new QuickTime movie, so you can recapture from tape later if necessary.
Supports HDV and AVCHD formats
Now you're not limited to specific HDV or AVCHD cameras, you can rest assured your files will be compatible with FCP when it comes time to edit.
