Outputting a 16/9 sequence to tape for lab work
Hi to all,
this is probably going to sound like an awfully stupid question to most of you. But i need to find the answer before morning, so your help is greatly appreciated.
I need to output a 16/9 sequence to DVCAM. it is being sent to a lab tomorrow for color correction, mastering and encoding.
The lab specifically needs the footage on tape.
My first intuition was to export to tape the 720x576 quicktime movie. The frame size would be the original captured size, and then would be flagged as anamorphic at the lab.
Or should i output as a letterboxed 4/3 film.
see what i mean?
thanks for your help.

That seems to make a lot of sense!
thanks Jerry.

I am studying Routing & Switching, but I also need to have a general understanding of the security features: AAA authentication, dot1x etc. It is probably the weakest link in my chain of knowledge because I have never used those
features.
I really need to play with the protocols in the lab to get a basic understanding of them. Is there some cut-down Radius server, preferably freeware running on a PC, that can be used for basic lab work? Can someone guide me through obtaining and installing it?

LuxembourgHi Kevin
You should be able to get an eval license for Cisco's Secure ACS that you could use in the lab. It is free for download on the Cisco site.
It does run out after 3 months so it depends on how long you need it for.
The other option is to use the Microsoft Radius server (IAS) which comes with the W2K Advanced server. I haven't used it so i can't really comment other than that.

Output 23.98 to 29.97 tape with correct 3:2 pulldown
I need to output a film project to DVcam tape for an online session . I've been advised that FCP won't put a proper 2:3:2:3 pull-down on 24 f projects so I've used Cinema Tools to convert to 23.98.
However, even with verifying all of my settings, such as the pull-down, and "use playback settings" for edit to tape (or print to video) - and then testing every other imaginable way, the tapes always have "hold" or duplicate frames, instead of blended BC CD frames. So reversing actually creates blended frames.
Has anyone experienced this with the new software or hardware or OS? I've got to deliver a tape tomorrow and nothing is working. I've successfully done this in the past using FCP 5.0 from a native 23.98 project so I compared the tapes and this is definitely not using the 3:2 pull-down.
Any information is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Karen
Power PC G5 dual 2 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.8) FCP 5.1.2I don't suppose you have Shake? It'd be easy to insert a proper pulldown then and create a 29.97 sequence...
Another solution is Nattress standards converter... it will also insert a proper pulldown and it's only $99 bucks.
I mean FCP should work - and it has worked for me in the past...
The only other thing I can think of is to import your 23.98 quicktime into DVDSP, then burn a dvd and lay that off to tape. A DVD player will insert the pulldown on playback...

Outputting timecode from timeline to tape for broadcast
I need to output to tape for broadcast using specific timecode set up in the sequence from the timeline. Looking at previous posts on the subject it looks like you cannot do it, although someone says there is a workaround for a DSR11, which is the deck I use. I also have a sony DSR50 I use for recording from a Polecam if that makes a difference, although I can't see it would. I need to start the timecode from 09:58:00:00, running bars and tone and info/countdown clock etc to start the film at a timecode of 10:00:00:00 (Pal European Broadcast). Anybody have any idea of it can be done and how exactly to do it?
Now that is very helpful... had to go and search for the remote I'd never even looked at.... and I didn't even know it had a set-up menu!
However, having now set it to external TC, and tested it with a bit of video from the timeline, it does not seem to record ANY timecode at all. Instructions say the unit "records the timecode with video and audio signals input from the DV IN/OUT connector".... but I am recording using firewire. I don't have an option to record from the computer using DV in, so I'm guessing I'm stuffed? -
24fps output to tape doesn't work
I have a 24fps sequence (which I'm outputting to film) and want to output it to DV tape. But when I print to tape, or even playback the sequence with my deck recording it, only the first image appears, with no movement. I'm using a Sony DVCAM DSR-11 deck via firewire.
How can I print my sequence to tape?
thanks

No, not the aspect ratio, it is the FRAME SIZE.
As noted, standard DV video (whether 4:3 or 16:9 anamorphic) is 720 pixels wide x 480 pixels tall. This is what your device at the end of the firewire cable is expecting.
Ah, of course, makes sense.
I suspect the frame rate has something to do with it as well. I exported the sequence as a QT movie and reimported it into a 720x480 sequence at 24fps; it still wouldn't output. I then imported it into a 720x480 sequence at the DV frame rate and it did output (although adding a lot of extra frames of course).
Thank you all for your excellent advice.

Sequence settings / codec for cutting iPhone material
Anyone know what settings a sequence should have for cutting video shot on an iPhone? Is the iPhone shooting NTSC (I'm assuming that's the case because if I change the settings to PAL it all needs rendering, which has a noticeable jitter after rendering)?
The audio is at 44.1. I need to output to a PAL DVD ultimately.H264 video is not recommended for editing and that is most likely what your phone files are.
Convert your iPhone files to ProRes in Compressor. You can edit in a 640x480(360-16x9) sequence and then convert to PAL when you are done.
You will blowing up your video because the files are smaller(pixel wise) than PAL video and have less lines(525).
You can try compressor for the format conversion but Natress will do a much better job in my opinion. -

When trying to use FaceTime I can't because it says it is turned off in settings, it then ask do I want to turn it on , tap for yes and it sits there spinning. Face time is on in settings?
Have you tried signing out of your Apple ID, restart the iPad and then start all over again?
Go to Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID. Tap the ID and sign out. Restart the iPad.
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.
Then go back to Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID. Sign in again. Then go to Settings>FaceTime>On. See if it will stay turned on and it it does, sign in and setup. -
Creation of sequence and trigger for each table!!!!!!!1
Hi
I am new to trigger and Sequence field. In one of my database we have many tables with fields for specifing ID numbers. Iam planning to insert the ID field with help of a Sequence and trigger...that trigger fires by adding the sequence value from the dual table. Now the point is here we r having around *60* table with ID field. And i am planning use the above process for each table by creating sequences and trigger for each table.
Will this affects the performance of database.
Is there any other option other than the above process, I mean other than creating sequences and trigger for each table.
PLzz help to resolve this issuee......

when I open up an e-mail attachment a box pops up PRINT TO FILE below that line OUTPUT FILE NAME with an empty line for the file name vs. simply going to my default printer?
Make sure that '''''Print to File''''' isn't selected in the native print dialog box ''(see screenshot below)'' middle-right, and make sure your Printer is selected at the top of that dialog box.
''I'm a little confused why an email attachment would need to go directly to the printer, but that's what you asked about.'' -

I am transferring HD video from AVCHD into FCP 6.0.4, and I need to know what the correct setting is for the aspect ratio (in the sequence preset editor). The footage is captured 1920x1080 at 30p. I plug that all in, but the only choice for plain HD at 16:9 is at 1440x1080. If I want to select 16:9 it's called HDTV 1080i???
Can someone help me understand why there is not a setting for HD 1920x1080 in that window? Is it normal for me to have to select 1440x1080? Even though all the other settings are at 1920x1080???
Also, do i have to check anamorphic 16:9?
Thanks in advance!I'm sorry, I'm a bit confused.
this time I set up my session/sequence to be for 1440x1080, transferred the media into the session. When I drag my first clip into the Canvas - the FCP pops up a window saying that the clip and the sequence don't match. I tell it to correct it - and it puts it back to the 1920x1080 - HDTV 1080i setting.
What am I doing wrong? Should I be converting it differently?
And which is correct - anamorphic or no???
Thanks -

I would like to know the list of possible output (export) file codec from FCP X. For example, can I export in FLV format? Where do I find the list, which gives me all the details about it? Or is there only one output codec? Thanks
That's an excellent analogy. While FCP cannot export FLV. It is possible to do a very simple substitution. If you export a QuickTime movie using the .mov suffix with the H.264 codec, you can change it to FLV simply by changing the suffix to .flv. This is an acceptable format for Flash movies on most web sites, if that's where you're trying to go.
