Trouble setting up Sony HDR-FX1E HDV handicam, please help?

Hi there trying to capture from the mentioned camera, seem to have problem to capture footage filmed in wide mode.
Can anybody help me out?
Thanks

have problem to capture footage filmed in
wide mode.
Does this mean you can capture 4:3 footage - or that you can't capture anything at all from your camera? Please describe exactly what you're doing and what's happening (or otherwise)!
Have you upgraded Quicktime recently? FCP uses QT to capture and there has been an issue with certain cameras not being recognised after the upgrade.
If you've upgraded QT recently, try capturing in iMovie (iMovie doesn't use QT to capture from a camera)
If you've managed to sort it out, why not post back and tell us how you did it? That way others can benefit from your experience. (That's what these discussion groups are all about).

Sony HDR-FX1E

I would like to import HDV material with the Sony HDR-FX1E into my Final Cut Pro App. But I couldn't find the right setting. The sound is to low. Has anyone a clue?
Thank you for your help.

Hi(Bonjour)
When do you get this message exactly (in seconds after start of import or much later) ?
Is it always at the same part of the tape?
Did you try to capture from another tape to see if the problem occur with all tapes ?
Do you use filevault? Is there any other application running in background ?
And, may be a simple question but, did you shoot your movie in HDV ?
If so, are you sure that the FX1 is outputting an HDV signal, not a DV conversion?

Cannot Connect Sony HDR-FX1E

Hi,
I cannot connect my Sony HDR-FX1E to my Mac through firewire to Final Cut Pro 6 or iMovie, it just will not connect, through easy set up or any other way in Final Cut. Are there drivers that I need or is this a Leopard problem?
I've tried fiddling with settings on the camera as well, but I have been using it on my work systems (not leopard) and its been fine.
Any help would be great as i'm desperate to capture some footage that needs editing.
Thanks,
Ryan

resolved this myself by getting a new firewire cable, cheers to me for the advice!

I have Lightroom 5 on my iMac with OS X 10.9.5. I have lost all my (10,500 pics) "developed" settings. Every picture went back to its original setting. How can I restore? Please help. Thanks, GY

Thank you for your questions/advice. The answer for your 1st question is yes, and "may be" to your 2nd question. Fortunately, I had exported the recently developed photos into my external head drive. After reverting back to the original catalog, I have re-imported those developed photos. Now everything is restored. I need to learn more about the subtleties in using the Lightroom.
Thanks again,

what is your error number.
Did you try to look up this number in the oracle error book?
Usually you can also find the solution there.
My bet is that your tnsnames.ora file is not set properly.

Having trouble with flash and linking to Sliding panels - PLEASE help

Having trouble with Sliding panels and flash. Otherwise everything works fine but when I'm trying to implement the link
<a href="#" onclick="sp1.showPanel('panel1'); return false;">Panel1</a>
to a flash button I get confused. I have tried following
on (press) {
getURL("javascript:sp1.showPanel('panel1');");
and it did not work. What would you suggest? I am desperate. Please help me! Any suggestions are highly appreciated!!!!

Thanks for your answer!
I have tried both sp1.ShowPanel('panel1'); and window.sp1.ShowPanel('panel1'); they both give blank window with [object]
I have found a solution that works in other browsers, but not in IE. Well basicly it works, but after a few clicks IE freezes.
on (press) {
getURL("javascript:sp1.showPanel('panel1'); void(0);");
Would you happen to have a solution other than that? I believe that the void(0); causes the IE to freeze.

The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
    1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
          Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
          bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
          'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
          ID security questions' and click 'Continue'.
     2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
     3. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.
A substitute for using the security questions is to use 2-step verification:

Is the Sony HDR-FX7 HDV Camera compatible with Final Cut Pro 5 or 6?

Has anyone gotten this to work correctly. I have read in a few forums that the camera is not supported by FCP and I checked on the compatibility list and it is not there. iMovie sees this camera and can capture from it.
I can not get FCP 6 to recognize the camera. I set device control to Sony HDV and I am only able to capture using the Intermediate Codec. When I switch to the HDV codec it only will record for a second then fail. Although I can capture with some limitations I still can't get FCP to recognize the camera and therefore video from the timeline won't playback on the camera.
I really don't want to have to buy a hdmi capture card or buy a HDV deck to get this to work. If anyone knows any workarounds it would be greatly appreciated.
If there are none any suggestions on a cheap compatible hdv deck or camera to get footage in and out would be great.
Thanks.

I have never had a problem with my internal boot drive either capturing DV footage and since HDV shares the same data rate I didn't think it would be an issue.
Then you are lucky my friend. If you wish to keep tempting fate that is your choice. I am simply suggesting that you follow the suggested setup so that you could eliminate a possible problem.
I do think there are compatibility issues.
This may be the case. Have you used an easy setup that matches your cameras settings and then changed control to firewire basic as I suggested earlier?
I have manually set up the capture settings and it will only work to the intermediate codec.
Manually settings are not always the best method. Try an easy setup as I suggested earlier.
I have narrowed it down to 2 things, either it's a Final Cut 6 issue on an Intel Mac, or it's just not compatible (Apple does not list it in it's Compatible Hardware List).
What I am trying to do is to narrow it down further. I have given you suggestions but it does not appear that you have tried them. If you try these we can continue to eliminate until you have an answer.
Please post back when you have tried my previous suggestions.

What is your experience transfering sony HDR-HE3 HDV to Imovie5 DV

I just bought the new HDR-HE3 and am leaving for England in a few days. I do not have the time to do extensive testing and would like to find out about your experiences in transfering video captured in HDV to DV format in Imovie5. Does it work ? any editing problems ? How long was your video ?
I am trying to find out if I can safely capture HDV videos and transfer them to Imovie5 in DV format for the short term. I understand that i will have to redo them in HDV format when HDV DVD players become affordable.
Would it be better to take the videos in DV format and forget about HDV for the time being? After reading all the "horror stories" about Imovie6, I have decided to stick with Imovie5 for now. Your feedback will be appreciated.

hello taronger,
i can't answer you on the camera issue 'cause i don't have an hdv camcorder
at this time, but have been using iMovie since version 2 with little or no problems although i use FCE as well.
all my fellow videographers have already switched to HDV and no one regretted so far ....i would say you made the right choice.
you could argue that it's better to work in DV as the DVD's and most TV's do not support HDV yet and i would have agreed but my colleagues have all assured me so far that it's much better to keep the HDV format throughout the entire process and then let iDVD make the downsizing....
the only reason there would be to capture SD is if your HDD runs low on space
good luck & viva la mela
