Question about image quality! *please help*

Hello everyone!
I'm actually a beginner at FCP, so sorry if this question sounds kinda dumb:
I just shot a video in a DVX100, and imported it onto FCP. When I play the video
on the viewer, the quality of the image looks just fine. When I put it on the timeline
for editing however, the image quality drops quite a bit. How can I match viewer settings
with sequence settings?
Thanks a lot!
Stef

Step 1 would be to ensure the sequence settings match the source video settings. If the sequence is set to a lower quality size/codec than the original video, it will be reduced in quality in the timeline.
What sequence settings are you using?

  • Question about Regular Expressions, please help!

    I have created an app which reads files and extracts certain data using regular expressions in JDK1.4 using Pattern and Matcher classes.
    However it needs to run on JDK1.2.2 (dont ask). The regular expression classes are not available in 1.2.2 (the Pattern and Matcher class) so i am looking for something similiar which i can use?
    I need something that loops through all the matches found in the file like how Matcher works i.e.
    while (matcher.find())
    // do this

  • A question about arrays. Please Help

    Ok here is my question lets say i have a multie varible array such as
    int[][] thisList = new int[3][64];And I have a number of other arrays that are single variable arrays, and which have data stored in them.
    List1[64]
    List2[64]
    List3[64]is there a way i can store all these three list in the multie varible array?
    for example i know i can do this, > Correct me if i am wrong
    List1 = List2; where List1 one now contains all the elements that List2 has.
    but is there a way i can
    us the same format with a multie varible array, to store all three list in it.
    such as thisList[1][] = List1; thisList[2][] = List2[]; Thanks

    for example i know i can do this, > Correct me if i
    am wrong
    List1 = List2; where List1 one now
    contains all the elements that List2 has.There will be one array. Both the List1 and List2 reference variables will point to that same array.
    (By the way, convention in Java is for variables to start with lowercase.)

    such as thisList[1][] = List1; thisList[2][] =
    List2[];
    You can do thisList[1] = List1 if thisList is an int[][] and List1 is an int[]. However, that will not copy any ints. It will just do the same as the above--cause the reference thisList[1] to point to the same array object as List1 does.
    If you want to copy values from one array to another, use System.arraycopy.

  • Question about lost iPod - Please help me out!!

    My iPod was stolen and is there anyway to relocate it if it connect to someone's computer? Could Apple track it down? And I am not sure whether I have registered my iPod online. Is there anyway to check??

    Apple have no process in place to either report or track stolen iPods. All you can do is report the theft to the Police together with it's serial number, and if your iPod was registered with Apple when you first got it, they will assist the Police in returning it to you should it ever be recovered.

    Launch Terminal.app
    Type cd followed by a space. Do not hit return key just yet.
    In Finder, navigate to folder containing the files you want to blow away.
    Drag and drop that folder (in the finder) into the Terminal.app window. It'll autofill the path to the directory containing the files you're wanting to blow away. Now hit the return key.
    You could type ls (that's a lower-case ell) and see the directory listing of all the files in your current directory. Probably a good idea to do just to doublecheck that you really are in the directory that you want to blow away all these files from.
    Now do what Greg said.
    Don't get impatient because Terminal is just sitting there and you're not getting an immediate command prompt. It'll take a while to blow away 9000 files.
    For entertainment, instead of rm *" copy"* use rm -v *" copy"* so you can watch all 9000 file names be printed in your terminal window as they are being deleted.
    Will it work? Oh yes .... irreversibly (if it doesn't, that's coz' there are some file ownership and/or file permission issues that need to be looked at, but assuming those are "compatible" with your current Terminal user environment, those guys'll be toast. Any file that's in the working directory where you are in Terminal that has the five characters " copy" in its filename will be history.
    The assumption in Greg's command is that all the files you want to blow away all reside in the one directory that you have navigated to.

  • A question about firing event, please help

    I would like to know how to fire an event in the following situation:
    public class FireAnEvent
             public static void main()
                   char c=(char)System.in.read())s;
                   String source="I'm the source";
                   if(c!="a")
                          fireActionEvent(new ActionEvent(source,1,null);
    }the above code won't work obviously, but what should i do to make it work, or is it possible to fire in this situation?
    thanks in advance;

    My personal favourite way to quickly fire custom events is through using enums in the XXXEvent class. That way checking which event was called is easy, and it's also typesafe.
    fireXXXEvent(XXXEvent.ID.MY_ID, "...");
      private List<XXXListener> listeners = new LinkedList<XXXListener>();
      private synchronized void fireXXXEvent(XXXEvent.ID eventID, String args) {
        XXXEvent event = new XXXEvent(this, eventID);
        event.setupOtherStuff(args);
        for (XXXListener l : listeners) {
          switch (eventID) {
            case MY_ID:
              l.xxxAction(event);
              break;
            case MY_OTHER_ID:
              l.xxxOtherAction(event);
              break;
            default:
              break;
      public synchronized void addXXXListener(XXXListener l) { listeners.add(l); }
      public synchronized void removeXXXListener(XXXListener l) { listeners.remove(l); }

    I hate to say this, but unless you are paying the 25 bucks you cannot back up your library to the cloud.
    All you can do is back up the items you "purchased" from Apple.
    iTunes Match
    For $24.99/year you’ll get access to all your iTunesmusic including tunes you ripped from CDs or “borrowed” from anonymous friends. It scans your library to see if the song exists in iTunes’ 18 million song catalog and if it does it’ll stream it to you at 256 kbps. If your song is not in iTunes then it’ll be uploaded to iCloud at whatever rate it is on your device where it can be streamed for your listening pleasure. I cannot find any information on how to restore a library, however
    Best of luck

    I am using adobe photoshop cs6. I am facing a problem. When i save any image as "save for web". After saving image it show cropped. An image show many parts of the image after saving the image. Please help me. Thanks in advance.

    Just go back in photoshop and use the Slice Select tool, then just click and select the slice and hit delete - if you're not sure which one is the active slice just right click and find the one that has the Delete Slice option.
    It's possible you either added the slices by accident or if you received it from someone they just had the slices hidden. For the future, you can go to View > Show > Slices to display (or hide) slices.
