Rolling Shutter And Stablization In FCPX/iMovie/Plug-Ins - Anybody A/B Them?

With all the things about FCPX I have not come across anything about the rolling shutter/stabilzation results yet.  May have missed them.
I tried the functions in iMovie in the past.  If the new FCPX does a good job with it  I would actually consider FCPX to play with and use for some things.  But if it is the same as iMovie, not sure then.

Thanks.
Yeah I use FCP7 but tried the recent iMovie a couple of times just to see how the image stablization and rolling shutter filters worked.  Always looking for decent plug-ins for those issues when they arise and figured in FCPX handled rolling shutter well I could spring for a copy and think of it as just another plug-in I would use from time to time to play with.  I am curious about FCPX and think it can be something that is "fun" but not sure if I would spend $300 right now on it.  Got Motion 5 for giggles since it was not too pricey.  It is okay, but even there right now I am not sure it was worth the money.  Guess it will be, but things like not having two documents open is something I find a bit of a pain (well more than a bit )

  • Re-installing iMovie plug-ins

    When I switched from a PPC Mac to my Intel Mac, I had to update some third-party plug-ins for iMovie. I was having some problems with it and did something stupid. I removed the iMovie plug-ins in my library for transitions and titles and somehow lost them (yes I searched they are so gone). How can I get them back? I tried re-installing iLife 06, but got weird error messages. What can I do to restore iMovie to what it was before?

    Hello, floridakid,
    Welcome to the discussions.
    You should have been able to recover your original iMovie titles and transitions with the reinstall of iLife.
    You would not be able to recover the third party plug-ins, unless you had saved the original downloads of those.
    What was the problem with the iLife reinstall? What 'weird error' messages were you getting? Did the applications reinstall or not?

  • IMovie plug ins not compatible with Intel Macs

    I need a page turn transition for an iMovie 6 project I'm working on. I downloaded one from cfx, but apparently a lot of the plug ins are not compatible with Intel Macs. Anyone out there have any suggestions?

    Any GeeThree plug-in that uses flash will no longer work, which include all the WildFX plug-ins. Apple did away with flash support in Quicktime 7.3.1 or newer! Now iMovie is basically unusable without the very cool & professional GeeThree plug-ins. If Apple keeps this up iMovie will probably go the way of the dinosaur. I've talked to Apple about this and they responded "why don't you buy Finalcut Pro". It's what Apple does best, Farm the base.....

  • Why does my Extras window keeps asking me to reload the Firefox window and not uploading my new plug ins even after I've reloaded it already?

    I have installed new versions of my plug ins and reloaded the Firefox page, but I noticed one of them wasn't working (the United States English Spellchecker 5.0.0) so I reinstalled it and rebooted the page once again. But it's not working and no matter how many times I reboot the page, it still asks me to do it. What can I do to solve this problem?
    This is the first time it has happened.

    This can happen if one of the files that stores details of installed extensions is corrupt. Try deleting those files as shown in the corrupt extension files section of the [[Unable to install add-ons#Corrupt extension files|unable to install add-ons]] article.

  • Plug-ins Can't get them to work !!

    I have searched in plug-ins and read the answers, and got side tracked for about 30 min while i looked at all the cool plug-ins that are available. My problem is that I have installed a few plug-ins and then don't show - Images-edit with-dodge& burn is the only thing shows.
    I did not have a Plug-in folder in my Aperture so as instructed I made one. A made one in both the system side HD>Lib>App support>Aperture>Plug-ins; that didn't work. Next I did the same under the user umbrella User>Same as above... in either case no plug-in show up.. I'm confused..
    Is there another place for these plugin to hide in! or am I just loopy with all this summer heat....
    Current PLus-ins trying to install; Hydra, Iflcker, Getty

    Be sure the name of the folder you created is exactly correct: Plug-Ins
    No spaces, caps on the P & the I. (not positive if the caps matter, but that's how it is in my system).
    The Hydra plug in has given a lot of people issues, so I'd skip that one for now, but the flicker should be no issue. You might try downloading something like "DFX" or "Light" which has an actual installer. That may help get your system set up right, then you can add the others.

  • Plug ins where to find them to upgrade them

    Running indesign 5.0 but have installed updates so I am assuming that it is now 5.5.
    I cannot open previous files. Gives error message
    need to update plugins
    where do i find the plug ins and how do i update them
    thanks
    Patti

    No, that would not be 5.5 since that was a paid upgrade.
    The reason you can’t open those files is because they were created in a
    later version of InDesign. Have whoever sent them save them back via IDML.

  • How to write FCP Plug-ins - Anybody Know?

    I'm thinking I'd like to learn how to write Plug-ins for Final Cut Pro. What's a good online source that might teach me how to do that?

    Do you know C, Brian?
    The difficulty I find with FxPlug authoring is that, unlike FxScript, you have to write everything.
    In other words, if you want to blur an image, in FxScript, just pass your image to the Blur (or BlurChannel) routine:
    Blur(bimage, Dest, radius, aspectof(Dest))
    in FxPlug? You'll have to write a blur routine... how up are you on your Gaussian Blur algorithms?
    Same with keying - need to do a chroma key? In FxScript:
    RGBColorKey(src1, buf1, red, redsoft, green, greensoft, blue, bluesoft, softness, 1);
    How are you at writing an RGB keyer in C?
    I've only written one or two FxPlug plugins because of these limitations...

  • I have 1Password for Mac and recently updated to Firefox5 for Mac and cannot locate 1Password in Plug-ins or extensions....How can I add this vital plug-in to FireFox5 OR how can I roll back things and re-install FireFox4?

    I am running FireFox5 on a 2008 (Santa Rosa) MacBook Pro.
    OSX 10.5 Leopard
    I have the current version of 1Password v.3.5.13 (FireFox5-friendly)
    I am running FireFox5 for Mac.
    I have the Add-on Compatibility Reporter 0.8.5 (which, by the way is reading "Compatibility Problems" with an orange exclamation mark)
    My Extensions tab shows 1Password for FireFox3 & FireFox4& Add-on Compatibility Reporter, but no 1Password for FireFox5.
    (I can email a screenshot of this if you like, let me know.)
    Any ideas?
    I'd really rather use FireFox than Safari, but if it's a no go, (no compatibility, no rool-back) I'll be forced to dump FireFOx and use Safari (only my choice of last resort.)
    JohnSea

    Thanks James!
    I appreciate you responding.
    Since I'm running Leopard (Software reasons-Logic Studio, Final Cut Studio) my task now is to locate Firefox4 and re-install it....
    But haven't found where on the Mozilla site it resides for download.....on with the the fun!
    Cheers!

    I have a Max OSx desktop and the other day Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.235 appeared on my screen so not knowing any better, I downloaded it with no luck.
    After that, I went back to playing my website game- Squircircle jigsaw puzzle and a tiny box appeared saying I was 'missing plug in'.  What can I do about this?
    I know very little about this computer.  This computer was given to me used and I don't know if it is Leopard, Lion, etc.
    I really hope you can help because as I said before, I know zip.
    Thanks alot.

  • All my images appear as iphoto original, and can't use plug-ins to work on them?

    Hi, I had to change my HD, and then intalled mountain lion and the recent aperture version, copied my aperture library from a external back up. But now I want to edit some images using Topaz and can't because all my images appear as "iphoto originals"
    Does anyone know how to work around it?
    I haven't even used iphoto on ages!! and always import directly to aperture
    Thanks

    If you can find a used one. That is the only dual card Apple was selling at the time. There a other choices now, from adding a PCI card, to replacing your current card with a dual. I'm not sure of the AGP speed of your machine, so can't recommend a specific card, but when you do buy one, insist on a money back guarantee that it will work with your machine. Some cards don't work with all the machines the claim to be compatible with.

  • Winamp plug-ins: Anybody know of a Zen touch compat. plug

    I recently came across this nice little plug-in for winamp which allowed me to edit and move files around on my zen touch. However it doesnt support direct play back...Anybody know of a plugin which will allow me to do so? As mediasource doesnt want to let me do anything since the firmware upgrade... I cant even put files on the player anymore. GRRRRRRRRRRR

    Admittedly, I had not tried the routing I had posted. I was just "thinking it through"... evidentially, not very well...
    I knew I'd read multiple posts over at Sonikmatter about this sort of thing. Here's the first one I came across doing a quick search:

  • Final Cut Pro similar plug-ins for iMovie?

    I'd like some more functions for my current movie editing software (iMoive '09), are there any plug-ins for imovie that have FCP features? Features like multicam, screen on screen, split screen , green screen, after effects, hd camera support, etc....
    I would just buy FCPX (maybe in the future, but not now) but I don't want to pay $300 + tax for an app with physical disk and packaging that I end up not liking, and I also don't have a credit card for the Mac App Store version. I would try torrenting it but I've heard some rumors of it crashing the whole computer, phising and what not. I'd rather take my chances with iMovie plug-ins than a pirated copy of FCPX.
    I wish there was a cheaper version like how Autodesk does their whole express and pro versions (Sketchbook Express/Pro, AutoCad Express/Pro), I am aware that at one point there was a FCP Express that's now discontinued....

    I appreciate that you don't have a credit card to use on the Mac App Store, but iMovie '11 is available for the paltry sum of US$14.99 - this latest version has some of the effects you are seeking, such as Picture in Picture, Side by Side and Green Screen. iMovie '09 may also have some of these features (I can't recall, as I've been using iMovie '11 for some time now).
    Both iMovie '09 and '11 support HD cameras and a range of formats. If a format is not supported, it is relatively easy to convert clips to a suitable editing format for iMovie.
    In Australia, cards (such as Visa) are available for a nominal value from the local supermarket. These can be safely used for internet purchases, given their specific value. So, you purchase a card for pretty much the exact value you require, make your purchase then destroy the card. I guess a similar thing is available in the US and other countries. That may be a good option for you if you wish to purchase apps from the Mac App Store.
