SPEAKER DISTORTION from TImeline Play in FCP HD

M-AUDIO BX5a speakers hooked up. Sound fine playing in other applications. Distorted, low and slow when outputting from FCP. Please any help,out there? Hooked through DigiDesign M-Box. Downloaded and use Core Audio Standalone Driver.

After you capture long clips with many shots in FCP, select them in the browser, then select "DV Start/Stop detect" in the Mark menu. This puts a marker at each place you started or stopped the camera. To see them, click on the disclosure triangle which will appear next to them in the Browser.... double click one of them, and then the Viewer will display only the material from that marker to the next.
You can drag these markers from the Browser to a bin and create subclips from them too.

Should be able to go into your sound preferences and choose your output device, you can also try downloading Airfoil and try that, it's a pretty cool app.

Making main timeline play from inside mc in AS3

Hi
I'm primarily a motion graphics guy but am helping out a
friend with some Flash web work. I have CS3 now but haven't touched
the app since MX so Actionscript 3 is taking me some time to get to
grips with - not that I was any more than a dabbler anyway.
I am simply trying to make the main timeline play when an MC
on the stage reaches the end of its animation. I have tried
variations of root.play("menu") or parent.play("menu") in the last
frame of the MC but I get:
"1061: Call to a possibly undefined method play through a
reference with static type flash.display:DisplayObjectContainer."
Also it breaks the previously ok code and the 'stop' on the 2
frames of the main timeline are now ignored.
Then I see stuff like this -
http://www.flepstudio.org/forum/tutorials/559-root.html"
- and I know I am way over my head.
Any help massively appreciated.

Many thanks but if I try -
MovieClip(root).play(2);
or
MovieClip(root).play("menu"); //menu is a frame label
I get an error.
Any idea?

Quicktime files from PC won't play in FCP

Hi
I am capturing and keying on a PC (Serious Magic's Ultra) and exporting various kinds of quicktime files: animation, uncompressed etc.
However, none of these files seem to play in FCP, even after rendering. An icon does appear in the time line, and I can play it in a Quick time player but not in FCP(5) - I only get sound.
Any help appreciated!
Trevor

ANY time you move between PC and Mac there are inherent problems- but animation ought to work for you. Usually the biggest problem is a proprietary codec on a pc that isn't supported in Mac QT. I'd take a careful look at the settings on the PC app in terms of what you are actually outputting. There might be something really strange...

HDV from After Effects to FCP - seeking advice...

I'm editing a concert which was shot with 5 cameras in Sony HDV (1080i), and FCP can actually play all 5 cameras in a multiclip synchronized with the canvas! (Dual G5, 1GB RAM) Well, it throws up an "Out Of Memory" red screen now and then, but I just ignore that and keep editing.
Now I'm creating an opening in After Effects set to HDV 1080i, and I'm wondering how to export (actually, MakeMovie) it. I've tried Animation / no compression and HDV / Keyframe every 15 frames. The Animation is about 20 times the file size of the HDV; they both play in FCP RT with some stuttering, they both render in the same amount of time, and they both look identical after rendering.
Can anyone suggest any other ways to export from After Effects so it will play without rendering in FCP?
I have a haunting feeling that if the GOP of the imported clip does not match the GOP of the timeline, I have to render. But I don't know how to detect the GOP of either.
Arghhh... how I suffer for art! Any suggestions would be welcome!

Hi James ... Yup, that's right, stacked on top of each other with opacity lowered on both as well! (I do like Macpros my old G5 went red when talking about HDV in the same room!!). I have though managed to replicate Seths problem by not using the same size comp. settings in AE. ie if my comp settings in AE are 320x 120 and I try resizing when rendering that seems to throw FCP off track, but if the AE comp settings are 1440 x 1080 and rendered at the same using HDV 1080 then FCP treats the quicktime footage as the same as Sony HDV.

HDMI out from Timeline

Hi,
I am doing a job for an Art Gallery, in which I have to shoot, and do a quick edit (no effects), and output to a Full HD 1920x1080 TV.
I intend to buy a Panasonic AG-HMC70U Shoulder Mounted Camcorder, which stores AVCHD 1080/60i (NTSC) video in SD/SDHC Cards.
I intend to buy a Sony VAIO F VPCF127FX/B 16.4" Notebook Computer, with Windows 7 Premium 64 bit, processor 1.73GHz Intel Core i7-740QM, 6 GBs RAM, and nVIDIA GeForce GT 330M with 1GB Dedicated.
Will I be able to output directly from CS-5 Timeline to TV, through notebook's HDMI out?
Thank you,
Ronaldo

Thanks a lot robodog2
I have a few questions bellow in red:
I would get 1 Terabyte drives instead...they are not expensive. You might need the extra room if you have to do some exports to files. Get the fastest ones you can for editing...esata better than fw800...make sure you turn off indexing and format NTFS and assign specific drive letters to the externals...put tape on driive with the drive letter you gave it clearly marked. If you dont you will have a hard time swapping them and maintaining links with your project(s).
Agree.
dont partition any drives
Agree.
when you say dvd you mean of course Blue Ray...for HD.... dvd is for SD....just dont forget when you look for disc burners.
Yes...Blue Ray, I keep saying DVD....
There's a program called neoscene by cineform that a lot of people use for avchd footage....you might want to look into having that just in case.
I'll check into it.
Test the tv -- output real footage from timeline to the same HD Tv you plan to use at show ....output to make sure it likes interlaced footage.
Here is the catch, I'm in Brazil, and this work will happen in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and we arrive 1 day before....this is why i'm trying to prepare as much as possible, in theory, before hand....
You'll probably put OS and program on C drive
Agree.
put pagefile on 2nd drive 1.5 x your ram with min and max size the SAME MAX SIZE so it never gets fragmented...do that first thing so the pagefile is near the center of disc. I guess you said 2 internal and 3 external ? so you can put your scratchdisk on disc 2 also...and assets and any exports you need to do on the externals...
I will have 2 Sony VAIO F VPCF127FX/B 16.4" Notebook Computer, with Windows 7 Premium 64 bit, processor 1.73GHz Intel Core i7-740QM, 6 GBs RAM, and nVIDIA GeForce GT 330M with 1GB Dedicated.
So, here you lost me...
1 - How do I - 1.5 x your ram with min and max size the SAME MAX SIZE so it never gets fragmented
2 - How do I do this pagefile to start at center of dics?
I will only have one internal disc, dedicated for OS.
Scratchdisk, assets and exports - I will have 3 external discs in total, one to edit, one for playing to, and the third one for copying....
plan on having an "emergency" helper that REALLY knows whats up with the computer and editing stuff in case you get stuck and have to focus on shooting and need help ...line that up beforehand.
Agree.
go to the gallery and see if you can do anything to enhance the lighting or color correct lights, windows etc beforehand...
test everything .....so you dont have surprises that make you crazy on the day.
That will be impossible as we arrive 1 day before...I'm taking my lights, tripods, color gels...
good luck sounds like fun..
Thanks a lot...

Here is answer from The Play Forge:
Hi Anna,
first of all, please check your receipt again,
if you've purchased anything else during the period it might appear as if it's related to Zombie Farm (Apples receipts are a bit hard to read to be honest.)
If this is indeed not the case and you have indeed not purchased anything from us, yet have been charged 239 DKK, there's obviously a big issue.
However, we're not in charge of the money handled in purchases, as Apple has chosen to be the only one controlling this.
As such you'll have to contact Apples support to get help with refunds.

VFL Speaker sound from both the front speakers while FR sound is not coming out at all.

I have a creative gigaworks s750 connected to a xtreme gamer sound card. The system was working absolutely fine but now it has started behaving very strangely; system is playing back Front Left Speaker sound from both the front speakers while Front Right sound is not coming out at all. If i click the front right speaker in audio console speaker setup wizard, no sound comes. However when i click the front left speaker, sound comes out of both speakers. I counter checked it with playing 5.1 dts movie and muting all the speakers except the front left one from ac3 filter, sound came out of both the front speakers. However when i muted all the channel except the front right, no sound was coming out of front right speaker.

Just want to add another relieved reader of this thread. I had lost the sound to my speakers even though I had sound to headphones. I was convinced it was a damaged headphone jack because I had pushed the headphone plug in harder the last evening when my wife complained that she could still hear the speakers while I listened with the headphones. The next morning--no speaker sound.
I spent a few hours searching the web to see how to disassemble a satellite A505 and get to the jack. But I wasn't even sure I could get a proper replacement jack that fit, and I was concerned that small damage, say to the ribbon connectors could render the computer useless--a large price to pay for just missing audio.
Fortunately, I stumbled onto this thread and I recalled I had put the unit to sleep the night before--something I don't usually do, but I didn't want all the Chrome web sites to have to reload so I just put it to sleep.
When I put it to sleep again and fired it up--Sound! I am so glad to find this solution so I just want to let people know it remains a viable option.

Has anyone got a MBP without speaker distortion?

I sent in my MBP for repair because of the speaker distortion, but looking around the board it seems like its a problem that apple cannot fix? Should I bother sending it to applecare again?? The difference is pretty big and I am suprised that apple would be okay with it. It renders my speakers practically useless as it just sounds horrible. Thanks.

Yep. One of the reasons I switched to the Pro from the MacBook was the low volume of the MacBook. Now I have more volume but distortion. Still it's better to hear that than nothing at all (though this doesn't go the same for crappy music
If you turn the bass down in the EQ, it should help a little.

Entire timeline plays smoothly; chapter playlist stutters regularly

I have a DVD layout of NTSC widescreen footage with menus containing: (1) a "Play All" button which plays the full timeline and (2) "Scene Selection" buttons which play various chapter playlists from the same timeline. The full timeline plays perfectly and smoothly throughout. When certain chapter playlists (even some containing only a single chapter) are selected, they play all the way through but they have about a quarter-second stutter (both audio & video freeze) in a regular pattern which occurs approximately every 16 seconds. I have rebuilt the Encore project from scratch (except that each time I re-used the same encoded video produced by Premiere), but I keep getting the same stutter on the same chapter playlists but never on the exact same footage when it plays directly from the full timeline.
Has anyone had this or a similar problem? Any ideas?

I appreciate your quick reply, but I’m just a bit puzzled by your answer.
On the Edit Quality Presets menu, the Format options are
H.264 Blu-ray
MPEG2-DVD

How do I minimize sound distortion from iTunes?

I seem to get audio distortion from time to time while playing iTunes thru an external amp and speakers.
when this happens, I shut everything down and then power up.
Suggestions?
Cheers,

If you downloaded the book from iTunes via your computer, sync your iPod, iPad, or iPhone and it should transfer there automatically. Just make sure you have checked the appropriate boxes (which books to sync etc.) before you click sync.
If you downloaded the book from iTunes via your iPod, iPad, or iPhone, then it should appear right there at the iBooks app.

Premiere timeline plays fine, but output extremely slow and screen lags

In Adobe Premiere CS6 I've been working on this timeline. I've added some effects to a couple clips such as drop shadow and basic 3D. The timeline plays perfectly fine. However, when I go to output this sequence to H.264 or MPEG 2 for DVD the first clip with these effects takes forever to output. Also, if I force render the segment to make a preview, it also takes forever. It is using the GPU to render, as the CPU has very little going on, but things on my computer screen take forever to do anything. If I open a window while it is rendering, it is extremely sluggish. I don't remember CS5 ever doing this.
Why would it be able to play the clip just fine, but take 10+ minutes to render the 10 seconds? Granted, I understand it is doing scaling bicubically now instead of bilinearly, but wow, this is sort of wierd.
I've also tried turning on and off certain effects to see if one is more problematic than another. The effects that appear to be intensive are the "Drop Shadow" and the "Basic 3D" effects. That's what is killing this.
Can anyone tell me how big of a performance jump would I get going from a GTX 470 to a GTX 680?
Thanks

My lap top wont import pictures from auto play. it keeps saying there is a file error and a device connected to the computer isnt working properly. i have tried going into the internal storage to copy and paste the pictures but this wont work either.

my pictures from my i phone 4s wont import from auto play. a message keeps coming up saying there is an error and a device is not working properly. also i have tried going into the internal storage to copy and paste them but that wont work either. the page either stops responding or the picture simply dont copy. does any1 have any idea why this is happening. it has never happened before and only seems to be happening since i started using i cloud storage instead of synching my phone with the lap top.

I have decided to dedicate this thread to the wonderful errors of Lion OSX. Each time I find a huge problem with Lion I will make note of it here.
Today I discovered a new treasure of doggie poop in Lion. No Save As......
I repeat. No Save As. In text editor I couldn't save the file with a new extension. I finally accomplished this oh so majorly difficult task (because we all know how difficult it should be to save a file with a new extension) by pressing duplicate and then saving a copy of the file with a new extension. Yet then I had to delete the first copy and send it to trash. And of course then I have to secure empty trash because if I have to do this the rest of my mac's life I will be taking up a quarter of percentage of space with duplicate files. So this is the real reason they got rid of Save As: so that it would garble up some extra GB on the ole hard disk.
So about 20 minutes of my time were wasted while doing my homework and studying for an exam because I had to look up "how to save a file with a new extension in mac Lion" and then wasted time sitting here and ranting on this forum until someone over at Apple wakes up from their OSX-coma.
are you freaking kidding me Apple? I mean REALLY?!!!! who the heck designed this?!!! I want to know. I want his or her name and I want to sit down with them and have a long chat. and then I'd probably splash cold water on their face to wake them up.
I am starting to believe that Apple is Satan.

Error message when downloading from Google Play Store

After recently doing the toshiba system update for my AT300-32gb tablet I now get the following error message when downloading free apps from Google Play Store -Error processing purchase {DF-BPA-13].
Automatic update for downloaded apps no longer works either. Anyone have a solution to this?

Go into your settings and touch "apps" on the left. Then touch "Google Play services" and tap "Clear data" and "Clear cache." Then touch "Apps" again on the left. Now do the same for the "Google Play Store" entry. Then hold down the power button until it asks if you want to turn it off. Go ahead and turn off the tablet. Then turn it back on and try again.
