Piero's time code generator/ FINAL CUT EXPRESS

Does anyone know how to use Piero's time code program? I cannot get the numbers to move once I place the effect on the clip. They just stay at 00:00:00. Using FINAL CUT EXPRESS

Getting the same problem. No numbers rolling over.
Using: FCE 4.0.1, PF's TC Gen. v4.2
Plugin used in: FCE
Filter is applied to a slug being composited over other clips (so I can apply PF's TC Gen. over a range of cuts, rather than each underlying cut)
Timecodes: FCE TimeCode
CURRENT TC: Checked, others unchecked.
Some font and size options tailored.
Easy Setup:
Format: HD, RATE: 25.00fps
Use: HDV-Apple Intermediate Codec 720p25
Tips?

Why can't I Apple+H hide Final Cut during capture anymore?

I used to love hiding the big screen while it was capturing footage and I could get on with other stuff and see my desktop!
For some reason it doesn't hide anymore?
Anyone know about this?

I have a Powermac G5 and I hide Final Cut during capture and get on with other things on the machine all the time, no problem.
Now, there is a problem though, now Apple-H doesn't hide it! I just don't understand why this would happen all of a sudden? I can live with it but I preferred hiding Final Cut so I can see my desktop.

Hi Alex, very interesting. What version is your OS? Did this happen after an update to the OS? I can certainly understand your frustration when a function all of a sudden doesn't work as it use to, especially when it's a function that is suppose to work.
Personally I don't do too many other tasks while capturing, but I will often switch over to check my email or something not very demanding upon my system. Yet, I have at times run some pretty heavy applications without any problems with my capture. So, I suppose it has a lot to do with installed memory and your processing power + fast drives. In any case, I understand what your asking here and will be anxious to see what other solutions you are offered.

Code for Final Cut Pro 2 not being accepted by FC Studio 2

I upgraded to OS X 10.4.11 from 10.4.2. The FC Studio 2 icon would bounce a few times and stop, but nothing else would happen. 10.4.2 was reinstalled, erasing everything. An attempt was made at starting FCP 2, but the OS is not finding the files necessary in OS 9.
Upgrades Final Cut Pro 4 and FC Studio 2 were made since purchasing FCP 2 as a full package approximately 7 years ago, but FC Studio 2 is not accepting the code for Final Cut Pro 2. How do I correct the problem short of buying the full FC Studio 2 or buying a new hard drive?
Thank you.

It doesn't make sense to me either. As Thomas stated, the crossgrade that required you to send in your old FCP install disc was for Final Cut Studio version 1 (which included FCP 5.1) - NOT version 2. And regardless of the fact that you sent in your install disc, you should still have the serial number for FCP 4. It was printed on two stickers that were attached to the "Installing Your Software" booklet that was included when you purchased FCP 4 (upgrade or full retail versions).
There is NO need to have the old software installed in order to install and upgrade to FCS 1 or 2. All you need is the serial number form the older version; you'll be prompted to enter it during the install process for FCS 1 or 2.
FCP 2 may install on an OSX version, but will NOT run on ANY OSX version - it only runs on a full installation of OS 9.

My Final Cut Projects folder were missing some files, I went to my time machine backup to restore and it said I don't have permission to access the time machine folder "Final Cut Projects". Why?

Yes, I've done all "the ususal suspects.." repaired permissions, zapped pram, "reintroduced Time Machine to the backup drive by turning it off and on... etc

I have recently update my Final Cut Pro X to Final Cut Pro X 10.1. I downloaded the update from the app store. Now every time I open Final Cut it crashes almost instantly. What can I do

I have recently update my Final Cut Pro X to Final Cut Pro X 10.1. I downloaded the update from the app store. Now every time I open Final Cut it crashes almost instantly. What can I do?- I really need help!

It sounds as though you have a corrupt project - or possibly a file within an event that is causing the application to crash.
Quit FCP X, then move your projects and events (if you have any) to new folders so that FCP X doesn't find them, then relaunch the application. If it launches OK, there's a very good chance one of your projects or events is causing the problem.
Quit the app again, then move one event or project at a time back to the original folder and launch FCP X again - keep going until you find the cause.

Several times after restarting Final Cut X was very slow and it always kept repeating rendering on same three clips. Later it stops rendering on every restart and the machine was normal and faster. Now it keeps crushing on every restart

My Final Cut X changed behaviour after conneting the external monitor via HDMI. Several times after restarting Final Cut X was very slow and it always kept repeating rendering on same three clips after every restart. Later the dual screen icon disapeared on the top of my screen and it stops rendering on every restart like before and the machine was normal and faster. Now Final Cut won't start anymore whenever I start it loads and crushes immediately on every restart.

Upgrade FCPX

Slow Rendering Time After Installing Final Cut Studio 2 Upgrade

I have a Mac Pro with two dual core processors, 8 GB of Ram, and 1 Terabyte of storage. I'm running the latest version of OSX. Ever since I upgraded to Final Cut Studio 2 my rendering time in Final Cut Pro 6 has become painfully slow. For example, it now takes at least an hour to render a short 5 minute video project. A project that size used to take just a few minutes. I uninstalled Final Cut Studio using AppZapper because I couldn't figure out how to remove the program any other way. Then, I reinstalled Final Cut Pro 6, but it didn't fix the problem. I called Apple's Final Cut Studio tech support, but they just had me upgrade Final Cut Pro 6 to 6.0.1. Unfortunately, this didn't fix the problem. Everything worked fine with Final Cut Pro 5, but ever since we upgraded everything has fell apart. Can anyone give us any insight into fixing this problem? So far, Apple's Final Cut tech support has been unable to find a solution.

Just a couple things to double check.
1. Repair Disk permissions, RESTART.
2. Try setting your RENDER DRIVE to something Different than the Media drive, RESTART.
3. Try Hosting your Media on a new Drive, RESTART.
Also, at this point since you are having system problems, I would backup all of your Media, Projects, etc. I just read a post of someone else that didn't have backup of their project and it became corrupted. I use Lacies SilverKeeper to automatically backup about 20 times a day, so we have dupes of at least all our Projects. And the first thing I do every morning is start the system up, repair disk permissions, and RESTART.
The reason why I suggest restarting after each attempt at changing preferences and such is so that the next time you load FCP it loads the settings that you have saved/changed as native settings as opposed to changed settings, this does make a difference. You will know what I am talking about if you have experienced the Log & Capture Input problem for FCP 5.
Let me know, I have some other suggestions if these don't work.

Final Cut Express capturing

Dear All,
I want to capture my TV out in FCE, Im converting my analog video signal in to DV form and then give it to my imac. But prob starts when I click capture button it gives an error of "time code" and stop capturing, I also tried "non controlable device" feature but it is not working, please help me to solve this issue.

Try Easy Setup DV Converter. PAL or NTSC whichever is applicable for your system.

Can I partition a Firewire 800 drive to work with Time Machine and Final Cut Pro?

Hey, I was reading that having Final Cut Projects and Events on the same external Hard Drive as a time machine backup doesn't work well together. So I was wondering if I partition a 2 TB External Hard Drive and use 1 partition for Time Machine and the other for Final Cut Pro, would it work like it should? I had thought so because it would recognize it as 2 different drives but I wasn't sure. Thank You for your time!

aside, if it is supported or not:
A backup is a crucial element in your set-up - is it wise to 'stress it' as a working drive for video-editing ...... ?
or, vice versa:
The moment, Time Machine launches, your working drive drops its performance by half or even more.
Plus, depending on your settings, the drive is forced to copy tons of data from partition I to partition II ... due to, a partition is no 'real'/physical drive, this stresses a drive extremely .....
drives are sooo cheap. and drive-space should never be an 'issue' while movie-making ..

Add time stamp in Final Cut?

In Final Cut is there any way to add a time stamp, like what you get on a consumer camcorder? The customer wants the date and time to show on the final video. The time and date was not recorded when I recorded the event.

In the mean time, to get this project done, it looks like I'm editing 60 tiny titles for my one hour video.
I'm not expert in Motion, but if you already have it, give yourself 5-10 minutes to try and publish the Time Date generator. The basic steps are (I'm doing this from memory so the names of things might be wrong):
1. Sart up Motion and choose a new FCPX Generator template project. Set the project settings that match your own project settings in FCPX.
2. Drag the Time Date Generator into the project.
3. Publish all the parameters you might want to change in FCPXby right clicking on them and selecting publish parameter.
4. Save the project. this will ask you for a name and category, which once saved, automatically appear in FCPX.
5. Drag that one new generator to your project, change the duration to fill your whole timeline, and set the parameters to your starting date/time.

Spinning ball all the time? new final cut?

Hi there,
After spend 300 dollars in the brand new final cut X, i notice that i also have a free spinning colourfull beachball?! yes in the previous version i never add so many hang ups and so time waiting for some operations, i have, as u can say the best comfiguration tha a imac can have until a year ago, 16 g of ram and a i7 processor, well the best on a imac.
Now and after a expatation i notice that its far for the desire result and i need help to try to resulve this bugs or not.
Hope to have any news, from someone and especially an update to fix from Apple

I'm running it on a 15" MacBook Pro and I get constant beach balls, they seem to get more frequent the longer I have the app open, and ultimately I have to force close and restart my computer because the whole system bogs down. Very aggravating. I have a Core 2 Duo and only 4 GB RAM, so I understand it would run slow, but after about an hour of editing, sometimes less, it becomes unusable.

Time Capsule and Final Cut Studio

Is there a way to have Time machine and Time Capsule halt operations while Final Cut Studio components are in use? I've had a couple of annoying hangs.

Unfortunately, you are seeing the results of pushing too much data simultaneously on your network.
Two options come to mind: 1) Utilize Gigabit Ethernet connections between network clients where possible, and 2) Utilize 802.11n 5 GHz only connections where Ethernet is not an option.
Besides those, temporarily disable Time Machine backups when processing files with FCP.

Keep Time Codes in Final Output?

For various reasons I won't bore you with here, I want to show the time codes in my final output. I have them (audio and video) on the canvas, and it's exactly what I need, but I can't seem to permanently keep them with my video. They disappear when I play or export the video. Does anyone know of a way to keep the time codes on the screen somehow for final output? I'm using FCP 6.02 and my video is HD1080i50 if that helps.

Oops....never mind. I found the answer to this in another post on this forum. Missed it the first time I searched.
Sorry.......

What is the creator code for final cut pro x?

Final Cut Pro 7 has creator code "KeyG" but the trial for FCP X has creator code "????" (according to the .plist). Does the full version use "KeyG" like previous ones, or a new code?
Thanks
Marc

My first question would be how well 5.1 would work with SL. People have reported problems.
As far as cameras are concerned, I would guess most any tape-based camera would work and so much depends on the kind of projects you work on that I wouldn't want to start guessing at your needs.
If you want broad access to tapeless and advanced formats try to locate and purchase an upgrade disk to 6 or 7.
Good luck.
Russ
