Problems sending audio to and from STP and then back into FCP

I am having problems getting audio clips back into FCPro 5 after sending them to STP and editing them.
This is my process: "Send" mono file to STP as new audio project file.
Save it in the dialog that opens with "sent" at the end...then it opens in STP.
Edit it.
Save it and select include audio source files.
Switch back to FCPRo and I have a warning "Some Files Went offline", namely the one I just sent to Soundtrack. The clip is now apparently offline and white colored but now has the file name with "sent" included.
Where did I go wrong? This was working for me previously.

Hi Blearyeyes,
I was just relaying what I've heard about the media going offline--I didn't claim that it made sense to me in these sorts of workflows where you know you are changing the media in STP, because you've just sent it to STP to be modified.
I've since dug through the FCP manuals, and it looks like it's the FCP rules about when a clip is considered to be offline that we're hitting--in the User Manual Part 2, on pages 79-80 there are some details about what causes the clip to go offline.
Here is one of the key statements from page 80--a clip is considered offline, "when a media file is modified, moved, or deleted, the modification date of the media file is changed, or the scratch disk becomes unavailable."

    There may be a defect in the phone. As you bought it in the US the only place you can get it looked at is in the US.
    When you say you bought it new, unlocked did you buy it directly from an Apple store? If you did not it was hacked to unlock it, which could also be your problem. Apple stores are the only place in the US that sells legitimately unlocked iPhones.

  • WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none receive

    Hi,
    WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none received"... Help
    I have tried network diagnostics which doesnt help... The only other ting is, when I woke the computer up it said tat another device was using my IP... My wife had plugged her phone into the computer to charge etc but even when i turn wifi off on the phone there is no change... also in settings on the phone the IP address is different...

    The answer to your question is - neither!
    Your PC should to configured to obtain an IP address automatically, and to obtain DNS server IP addresses automatically, from the Airport Express. This is the way Windows (and Macs for that matter) are configued by default, and that is the way most people have their computers set up. If you manually configured your PC's IP address to be the same as your wife's Mac, it certainly explains why your PC is not able to access the internet.

  • Audio help wanted exporting to QT and back into FCP.

    I have a sequence with live sound on A1 and A2, music on A3 and A4 and some extra voice on A5 and A6. I have gone into audio outputs and clicked "6 outputs" and "dual mono" for each and tried checking all the options for "Discrete channels" "Stereo down mix" etc. Whatever happens when I reimport the QT movie into a fcp sequence I get the 6 tracks but the whole mix always ends up of 1 and 2 with the other tracks blank. How can I get all the tracks to carry accross individually all the way?

    I've sent a test to the broadcaster using this method. When I reimported the QT file back into FCP it was possible to separate the live sound from the music etc. I'll have to hope it's OK otherwise I'll have to do the odd suggestion of the editor of converting all the audio files to AIFF and re-laying them into the project and then exporting the whole lot as a QT file.

    Sorry for my english i'm spanish

    I have not tried that...I will look up the process so that I can do it correctly (and still transfer all of my files, contacts, etc).  Any suggestions?  What is the advantage of restoring as a new device..is this more akin to a complete wipe of a hard drive?

  • PROBLEM SOLVED "export clips from Color back into FCP & add transition"

    If I have two clips that you cannot place a transition in between here is the only thing that worked for me.
    I discovered this problem after I exported my movie clips from FCP 6 to Color and imported the color corrected files from Color back into FCP 6. I could no longer add transitions to any of my clips unless I made the following changes.
    1. 1st check to see if the video clip has an audio track underneath it. If they are not linked Select the audio and the video track to be linked, hit Command "L" and you will see an underline under the audio and video name to show that they are now linked. Do the same for the adjoining video and audio track.
    2. Next select all of the clips after the video clip you just selected by typing "tttt" this changes to the "Select All Tracks Forward Tool". Click on the track after the video track you just linked and it will select all of the tracks thereafter. Hit the "A" button to change back to the selection tool and move all of the selected tracks away from the previous video/audio track.
    3. Next type "RR" this will change to the "Ripple" tool. Now click on end of the video track on the previous video clip and type -15 (for negative 15 frames). Then click on the beginning of other video clip to the right that you linked and type +15 (for plus 15 frames).
    4. Type "tttt" to change back to the "Select All Tracks Forward Tool" the hit the "A" button to change back to the selection tool and drag all tracks back together again.
    5. You may then drag and drop your transition in between both video clips.
    I hope this helps someone...this is the only thing that worked for me!!!

    I am working with mostly DVCPro ftg, with a few clips in MiniDV.  I did have roughly 10 clips with speed changes, but they exported fine two weeks ago, when I did this the first time.  (Actually, it didn't keep the speed changes, but it did export with media to FCP). 
    The clips do have reel numbers and seem to be of the right length per clip but there's just no picture and no assoicated media with which to relink the clip.
    I'm on Color 1.5.3
    Any possible ideas?  Thank you for your help...

  • HT1390 I just rented a movie on itunes but I don't know how to make it play.  I clicked out of itunes and now when I go back into itunes, I don't see a way to play the movie I just downloaded.  Help.

    I am a new at this.  I just rented and downloaded a movie, clicked out of iturnes and now when I go back into itunes, I don't see a way to play the movie that I just downloaded ten minutes ago.  I just want to watch it on my laptop.
    Help.

    Welcome to the Apple Community Vane_paranormal.
    If you rent a movie on your phone, you have to watch it on your phone, likewise if you rent it from the Apple TV you will have to watch it there.
    If you want to watch a rental on multiple devices, rent it from a computer.

    Have not backed up for months, so prefer not to lose the data.
    Thank you for your help in advance.

    Restore iPhone with iTunes on computer. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time of holding both buttons. Click the Update or Restore button that iTunes offers.

  • My non-so-techno missus has had my old iphone4s, deleted all my contacts, and put hers in, then backed up to iCloud (mine) so now I have her contacts on my 5s......and ideas?

    My non-so-techno missus has my old iPhone 4S, deleted all my contacts and put hers in, then backed up to iCloud (mine) so now I have all her contacts on my 5s.....any ideas?

    iCloud isn't a backup where Contacts etc. are concerned, it's a syncing service. Any changes you make on any device connected to it are transmitted to iCloud and then to other devices. If your son signed into your iCloud account and deleted contacts then that's the same as if you had deleted contacts on your own device. I'm afraid that as far as iCloud is concerned, deleted is deleted. If you don't have an independent backup such as Time Machine, or a backup of your iOS device on iCloud or iTunes, then you can't retrieve your data. If you had made a backup of your iOS device you can restore that - it will restore the entire backup so any changes made subsequent to the backup will be lost.

  • Trouble importing HDV mini DV footage from my Sony HVR Z7U into FCP 6.0.6

    Cannot import HDV mini DV footage from my HVR Z7U camcorder into Final Cut Pro
    I can Import the footage as an NTSC 720x480 signal.
    One consistent answer is to make sure that in camcorders menu settings that the IN/OUT REC - iLINK SET is set to off.
    No Luck, no communication with FCP in that mode.
    That being said when cameras ilink is on I can import 740/480 NTSC video, not HDV.
    Here’s where I’m at now
    The video was shot in 1080i 30p onmini DV.  With my Sony HVR Z7U Ican only import the video into FCP as a NTSC 720x480 signal. It looks great butnot in HDV?
    I believe I have tried most every setting in my FCP audio video settings to import the HD footage into FCP. FCPseems to only recognize the camcorder in the NTSC mode.
    Example - In  FCP  Audio /Video Settings
    Sequence Preset - HDV 108030p
    Capture Preset    - HDV
    Device Control     - HDV FireWire Basic
    Video Playback   - Only gives none or NTSC choices(I chose Apple FireWire)
    With the setting above and Sony’s  ilink off- window alert reads…
    “Device is not connected or the capture preset is not set up correctly. You may still log offline clips. This might also happen if you play DV footage in an HDV device.” The camcorder viewer reads the digital footage as 1080i 30p. So it’s not shot in DV footage.
    With the iLink on - I get the same window alert.  Unless I capture in NTSC
    For me FCP will only log and capture the footage when the Capture and Device Control Presets are set to a NTSC format and the camcorder ilink is on. Hence an NTSC 720x480 signal is imported. Not HDV?
    Come on, I know this a common problem and I must be missing something very simple. Please Help! Many thanks.

    Someone mentioned using log and transfer. I use this with all my Compact Flash HD videos. I have found no info for importing HDV from mini DV in log and transfer with a (my) camcorder.

    Gary, this is the Final Cut Pro X forum.  You might try the other forum for FCP. Still, I have the Z5U Sony which is nearly identical to your camera except for the zoom as I recall.  I think we have the same menu system.  I see to recall there is a menu option that sets the output file format.  Also you can set it to record in SD as well as I recall.  I read my files in from tape to FCP X easily ... in high def.  Best wishes.

  • Color graded sequence won't export back into fcp as an xml or send to

    Hi,
    I've finished a film and graded it. when everything is rendered, I export using either send to or as an xml. Both stop at around 50%. on the xml I get the following report.
    I started out at a 20 min sequence then a ten minute sequence now I'm down to 5 minutes. i've got a 146 minute movie to grade and get back into fcp.
    Any help much appreciated.
    Cheers

    The order of execution is confusing me.
    On your first attempt, you tried sending the entire 146 minute project, graded and rendered it. Correct?
    On Send To FCP, the XML failed... (hardly surprising)
    This is where I get lost. Are you creating new, shorter versions, grading them and attempting to round trip the short sequences? and... if this is so, how are you differentiating these from the original monster failure? Do you have new render directories, paths, XMLs? Once an XML has been sent, it must not be re-used or re-sent or it will start appearing as ambiguous clones with conflicting path references.
    And 146 minutes is too long for any single subject unless it is a remake of Warren Beatty's "Reds" or "Spending a little over two hours on a beach with Jessica Alba" so make it shorter... ;-P This is an undocumented feature of COLOR. No, really!

  • Can I save a dng file from Photoshop6 to import back into Lightroom 4

    Can I save a dng file from Photoshop6 to import back into Lightroom 4. I don't understand why this is not straight forward.

    Hello!
    The DNG format's goal is to be an universal file formats for camera raw files: http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/extend.displayTab2.html?promoid=DTEHA
    You can save a DNG from camera raw without a problem.
    Just go the the bottom left hand corner of the interface, and select "save image".
    (as explained here in the help files: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/creativesuite/cs/using/WS91C1E0BD-9600-42b2-8EBE-1E012ED61058. html#WSB0DC278F-B3DF-4a60-88BC-B3D6A852C242 )
    Or are you trying to save an file edited in Photoshop as a DNG?
    For what purpose, exactly? A TIFF, PSD or PSB file can have a raw file, saved as a Smart Object (to allow later reprocessing in Camera Raw) and all the pixel/vector editing layers intact.
    If saved with maximize compatibility, it can be opened in Lightroom for cataloging, and editing, if needed.
