Poverty - Quick video I made with FCE

Hello,
Here is just a quick video on Poverty I made with Final Cut Express. If you are wondering I am not affiliated with either of the organizations mentioned in the video.
It would be much appreciated if you guys could let me know what you think of it:

Thanks.

Nice little movie, short and to the point. Demonstrates your skill in working with FCE.
On the original I found there was a bit too much movement with the titles that made it necessary for me to watch it twice ........... but that may be just me being a slow reader!
I have the same problem with commercial movies - a computer monitor, newspaper headline or document (important to the plot) appears briefly onscreen and I don't have time to take in what it says.
Decades ago, whenever text appeared, it was left on for so long that even dyslexic members of the audience could sound out every letter!
Anyway, well done Brenden.

Can video files made with a Canon XA-10 be imported into FCPX?

Files made with a Canon XA-10 do not seem to be recognized by FCPX.
Recording system of camcorder is MPEG-4 AVC/H.264.
Is there a format problem or a media conversion that needs to be made?
Thank you.
John

Tom is exactly right. Connect the XA10 to the computer using the USB cable that came with it. Then go File > Import from Camera.
Up will pop the import from camera window, which should show two cameras -- your Mac's built-in iSight camera, as well as your XA-10. And you should see the thumbnails from all the various videos you've shot with the camera. Just select the ones you want to import and click Import.
FCPX will begin importing (and transcoding) the videos. Do not disconnect the camera while this process is unfolding (it may take a while depending on how many videos and how long the videos are).

Cut videos before editing with FCE ?

Hi,
This might be a dumb question and I may tackle this the wrong way : basically, I have several Video cameras (HD, non HD, etc etc) and when I shoot something, I usually store it all on my Mac and save it for later editing. Problem is that amongst all the footages, a lot is not usable but I keep it all anyway and as a result :
- It takes plenty of space on my HD
- it makes it painfull to edit in FCE when I want to make a project later.
As such, what I want to find is an easy (and cheap) way to roughly cut raw footage as soon as I transfer it on my IMac and keep only the usable things (I also thing it is a good thing to do it when the "event" is fresh in my memory). It will save space and make it easier to edit. Of course, I could do that with FCE but it's quite long to open and use and I feel it is a bit painfull to use it for such a simple task. I see that QuickTime alows to trim the footage but you can only cut from the start and from the end, not to cut a piece in the middle and also converts it to .mov after trimming while I'd rather keep it in the original format as I'm affraid to lose quality on HD videos.
Also, I was wondering what wa sthe best format to use to edit video in FCE ? because depending on the format (.mov , .mp4 ,...) it can be very long to render.
Anyway, is this makes sense and if anyone as an idea, it;ll be welcome,
Cheers,
Jean

>what wa sthe best format to use to edit video in FCE ? because depending on the format (.mov , .mp4 ,...) it can be very long to render.
That is most likely the reason you feel FCE is too difficult to work with for cutting footage. FCE only works with DV and AIC. All other formats must be converted to one of those two BEFORE importing into an FCE project.
Once you've converted the footage to the proper format, cutting in FCE will be a breeze.

Flip Video Camera Compatiblilty with FCE 4.1

I was wondering about the Flip video camera's compatibility with my Mac set up. I have a PowerMac G5/Power PC, with Tiger 10.4.11. I'm using FCE 4.1. I also wondered about after dumping video into the Mac, and putting it in FCE, is there (the dreaded red line) RENDER time for every single clip put in a sequence. I know there are different versions of these cameras after viewing them online. Some say they are compatible with Power PC G4 or better. Others say you need the Intel based Mac. Any info. much appreciated!

Any suggestions on another small video camera like this that video will not have to be converted?
All these small video cameras use highly compressed delivery (or proprietary) codecs to record the video. There is no way around it - even when using Final Cut Pro, which has a much wider degree of latitude with regard to editable formats.
My advice, just develop a work flow that ingests and converts as standard practice. Create a batch process and go have something refreshing to drink while you wait for it to complete.
Have fun,

Avchd video file made with Premiere Elements 8 won't fast forward or reward

I just finished an AVCHD video project in Premiere 8 and I can't fast forward or rewind the file on my computer with Windows Media Player or in Windows Media Center. The file plays nicelly but it's annoying watch it from start to finish for 45 minutes.
I have a Vixia HF S20 - the video format of the original files was ACHD. After finishing editing the project I choose to save it on my PC (a Dell Inspiron 8100 with I5 - so lots of power awailable) as a MPEG file. I noticed that this format was the only one that gave me the option to save the video in H.264 1920x1080i 30 preset.
The rendering of the video took some 3 hours. It saved the video in AVCHD format and at playback, on my computer screen, it looks just as it should - HD quality - but the lack of controls it's really, really stupid!
Anyway, I need help to figure out what is happening here. Did I do something wrong? Are there other saving settings/presets to choose from that retain the HD quality I am not aware of? Thanks a million in advance!

Well, if you are weighing things against WMP, it could be that PrE could have done something differently.
Now, I am not a fan of WMP, and am REALLY not a fan of RealMedia Player. I liken that latter one to a Trojan, waiting to happen. I last had a version installed about 12 years ago, and would never let another copy near any of my computers.
Besides the two that I mentioned, GOM Player gets high marks, as well.
Good luck,

SWF Video file made with AVS

I have a videofile given to me from the client as a SWF, they
have used AVS software to convert.
I load the SWF file in using MovieClipLoader, it plays ok,
however, I can't seem to control it. I need to know when the clip
is finished, and for it to stop looping. I also want to be able to
stop it when the video is clicked.
Has anyone had experience of this type of Video file? I would
appreciate any response,
Thanks,
L.

Video Plays Twice After FCE Encode To iPhone

I have an AIC video I made in FCE that is only 17 seconds long, and I encoded it for the iPhone with FCE Quicktime Conversion selecting "MPEG-4" as follows:
MP4
H.264
900 KBPS
480 X 320
30 frame rate
VIDEO Option Selected was:
baseline checked
I got it synced up and transferred to iPhone and it plays nicely, but it plays twice? It's like the video is in repeat mode. At first I thought it was a setting in my iPhone 3GS, but under the iPod video settings there is nothing that says repeat for the video.
Where did I go wrong, is it some I did within the FCE encoding or is it a setting on the iPhone that I may be missing?

I am actually using 480 X 270, I made a typo when I wrote the full resolution of the iPhone, and yes it plays twice and then stops. I finally manage to fix this. I placed the video in another iPhone, and it played normally, so I determined it had to be something on my iPhone, but no repeat was selected? I simply did an iPhone reboot, and now it plays normally.
Now I need to find out why my FCE iPhone settings output such a bad resolution compared to the method I used here.

Resizing videos with FCE

When I try to upload the video to wildcast.tvnothing seems to happen, i have even let it sit over night and nothing. any help would be great.
thanks jim k.

How to import and edit a 3D video made with Sony HDR-TD10E camcorder, with .MVC file?

How to import and edit a 3D video made with Sony HDR-TD10E camcorder, with .MVC file?
I have PremierePro-CS5 installed.
This stereo 3D camcorder (Sony HDR-TD10E), output an .MVC (MultiViewCoding) file, coded in H.264 format.
This format is already compatible with Bluray3D stereoscopic format.
1) But, how to edit the .MVC in Premiere?
2) What plugin should I use (if exists) for PremiereProCS5?
3) Cineform Neo3D, can manage the .MVC format? Can convert it to Cineform format file, for import it into Premiere?
4) What software should I use to convert an .MVC video to an AVCHD H.264 file, and import it into PremierePro CS5 or CS5.5 for editing?
Thanks!
Horsepower0171.

Sorry, I am Italian, it is very difficult for me to understand what he says!
I can just read the english text, or follow the actions of a videotutorial!
Thus my question is the same:
-What software can do that?
-Sony Vegas 10 do the Bluray3D authoring?
-For MVC editing, should I wait for Adobe CS6? Or is it planned an update for CS5.5?

The camera connection kit can only be used to import photo/video files from a camera, SD card or USB flash drive. You can't import other types of files. You can't export any type of files using the camera connection kit.

Hi
If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
• iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
• DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
• Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
• Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
only You can buy from Apple is
• FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
AppleMan1958
You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

Why I can't import o sync my videos made with my IPhone 4S?

I can't import o sync my videos made with my IPhone 4S. Have try ICloud Photo Stream, IPhoto, Image Capture, Drang and Drop, Dropbox, also turning it on and off, nothing seams to work. Can someone please give a efective solution? Thanks

The iPhoto app (version 9.4.3) on my iMac (with OS X, version 10.8.4) no longer imports videos from my iPhone 5 (with the latest version of iOS). This problem arose suddenly roughly one month ago. Whenever I connect my iPhone to the iMac, all my photos are imported without a problem, but I get the following error message for all of the videos on the iPhone:
I get the same error message when my children try to import videos from their 5th gen iPod touches. The videos simply do not get imported and they remain on my iPhone anmd the iPod touches. Strangely, I can send the videos via iMessage or email to other iPhones/iPod touches and they play with no problem on the recipient iDevices.
Again, this problem began suddenly roughly one month ago - I was able to import videos from my iPhone 5 without incident before it suddenly stopped working - and I am stumped at how to correct this problem.
I do not have any issues with storage capacity on my iMac, so that possible explanation can be ruled out.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

If someone messages my iphone 6 with the new quick video option when I get it I do not get the option to keep. Therefore it never vanishes. If I send a quick message video to them it has keep listed below the video on theirs.

1. Every iPod, since the first generation model back in 2001 (of which I am proud to be an original owner) has always scratched on all surfaces – front, back, you name it, but basically everything scratches and this is nothing new. If you toss your shiny new cell phone into your pocket with your car keys it is also bound to be scratched. Just because the iPod costs about ten times more than your cell phone doesn't mean that the iPod is scratch-proof or will stop a bullet.
If you go out and buy a brand new, scratchless BMW are you going to expect it to never get a scratch or fingerprint on it? Excuse me, but get real or get a case for it.
2. Transferring video to the iPod was meant to be "easy" for videos that you have purchased over iTunes. It gets more complicated when you want to "back up" your DVDs or avi files that you have on your computer. Unfortunately, QuickTime Pro is not the fastest option for converting to m4v format. There are dozens of applications out there that will rip your DVDs to your hard drive and a handful more which will take this file and convert it to an iPod-friendly format.
3. It's possible to use your iPod with more than one computer without it being erased. When you connect the iPod to a computer which isn't the first one you used it with, it will say that the iTunes library is not the same one on your iPod and whether or not you want to overwrite the iPod. Obviously you can click no. In the iPod's preferences (found in iTunes), click "manually transfer songs and playlists". You can now take single songs or entire albums from your secondary computer and put them on your iPod.

What program is this video made with?

*Hello everybody*
I watched a video yesterday and was thinking about what the video was edited with.
This is the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxo_dQR22xg
I think the moving text is very nice, and wanna know how to do it.
Alexander.

Could have been made with After Effects, Motion, Shake or a few other applications.
