Two Free Countdown Leaders For FCE/FCP.

Whilst answering a question on free effects I came across these countdown leaders. A few weeks ago a number of people were requesting such effects:-

Thanks, Ian. I also liked the lower third background height adjustment too.

  • Xmas is Coming! Would You Like 50 FREE Video Tutorials for FCE/FCP?

    Ripple Training produce some excellent tutorials on CD.
    However, they also give away over 50 video tutorials for FCE/FCP.
    Many of them are for FCP BUT (most) also apply to FCE.
    They deal with each topic in a short and punchy style. I found them easy to follow and learned some useful quick tips.
    They are QT movies which can be downloaded so that you can use them whenever you want. (Allow about an hour to download them all - you have to do them one at a time). I found it quicker to download all of them (except for a few dealing with multi-camera work etc.) rather than viewing them on the website to sort them out.
    http://www.rippletraining.com/engine/free_tutorials.html
    Hope you find them as useful as I did.
    Ian.

    Just a couple of additional points for newcomers:-
    1. The estimation of an hour (or so) to download them all refers to Broadband (ADSL). Normal "Snailmail" internet will take around 10 hours!
    2. To download each lesson choose File>Save Page As. A window will appear saying it will be saved as a QuickTime Movie on the Desktop. Click Save.

  • So You Think Your Computer's Not Powerful Enough For FCE/FCP !!!!!

    It's NOT a question - just some sobering thoughts!
    How many times do we get worried owners asking whether the Mac they have or the one they intend to get will have enough power to operate FCE/FCP?
    So I trawled through the history books - otherwise known as back-copies of Macworld and this is what I discovered.
    Final Cut Pro was released in April 1999. At that time the most powerful Macs had the following specification:-
    G3 450MHz processors.
    OS 8.6
    Couldn't find the HD size but guess it was around 20GB.
    All this power cost over £2,000 !
    Now I know that the latest versions of FCE/FCP have additional features, but if we disregard HD processing the latest are not that much different from the original.
    So has anyone, even those that buy the puniest Mac-Mini, got anything to really worry about?
    Ian.(Who sets cats amongst pigeons).

    I have a 1Ghz, G4 Powerbook w/768MB RAM and FCEHD runs beautifully. I also successfully use DVDSP2, Compressor, Cinema 4d 9.52, AE6.5Pro and RealFlow3. Motion 1 causes some crashes when I try to use particle effects and some AE based plug ins, but it does work for basic stuff.
    OK, bragging over

  • New Website Offering 10 Very Slick FCE/FCP Plugins.

    Gogiangigo from the FCP forum has been developing Effects, Transitions and Generators for FCE/FCP.
    These are very slick plugins which should be useful to FCE editors.
    The site also has some very professional looking video demos/tutorials showing every plugin in use.
    You are welcome to download the plugins free of charge but Gogiangigo will not object if anyone donates a few pennies (or more!) as the site costs quite a bit to run and the plugins take time to produce.
    Donations would no doubt ensure that new plugins are developed and added.
    I am sure he would be interested in hearing suggestions for new filters but don't ask for an "Instant Auto-Edit Plugin"!
    http://www.videonline.co.uk/Luca_Plugins.htm

    An update to my original posting ............. Apparently gogiangigo had over 700 visits to his site yesterday and some 600 downloads.
    In view of the interest shown, he has opened a blog where folk can ask questions or discuss current, new and proposed plugins.

    I'm sure he would appreciate any input, be it help, comments or suggestions.

  • Does the "Anamorphicizer" work for FCE and FCP?

    I have:
    Final Cut Express HD 3.0
    iDVD 6.0.2
    Just downloaded the anamorphicizer from this link
    http://homepage.mac.com/sith33/FileSharing34.html
    to help my project maintain it's 16:9 aspect ratio in iDVD.
    Before I spend $30.00 for quicktime pro (so that I can start using the anamorphicizer with it) can someone tell me if the anamorphicizer works for Final Cut Express?
    If you go to the page above it says, "Export your video from FCP like you normally would for going to iDVD," and does not mention FCE.
    Or, is there another website to download a "anamorphicizer" version that works for FCE?
    Thanks!
    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.4)   Final Cut Express

    I've had kind of iffy results with Anamorphicizer, but I suspect that's because I don't know what I'm doing (or am trying to convert funky file formats). But when I drop a file on top of Anamorphicizer, it automatically opens up QT Pro and instructs me to save the converted file. I think you might have to get QT Pro in order to use it—I'm not sure, but don't think that the regular (free) version of QT has the "save as" capabilities of QT Pro. (Could be wrong, though. . . )
    Anyway, sure, if you save a file after it's been converted by Anamorphicizer, it should be able to be opened in FCE. (I save my files as a "Hinted" Quicktime movie.

  • Free plug ins for fcp

    thanks in advance
    Brucey Bizzit

    Many of the posters here author them -- some without cost and some sold.
    Are the sites safe? From what?
    Never heard of a plug in for FCP ruining a computer. If they don't work or cause issues, just trash them

  • Keyboards for FCE

    Has anyone had any experience with custom keyboards for FCE? The only two I have seen are from Bella and Locic Keyboard.
    Thanks

    Hi(Bonjour)!
    I own a bella advantage serie keyboard for FCP. When I bought it there was not FCE version. I had only to swap 2 keys on numeric keypad to fit the FCE key mapping.
    I don't use it really much as color coded keys are fine but letters are too small to use it for text typing.

  • Apple Support for FCE HD - $200 per call???

    i had what was probably a minor issue with editing in final cut express hd today. So naturally, i called applecare. They told me that it had been past the 90 days given to us for support from the point of purchase. Fine. However, the apple support representative went on to tell me that Applecare does NOT support pro applications and that i have to pay $199 per incident? I paid $299 for the product itself! Last i checked, i-pods were selling pretty well and i don't think steve jobs needs that money! Is apple serious? Where do they get off charging $200 for a ONE TIME PHONE CALL? Just because FCE HD is a "pro" application, apple can't assume that everyone who purchases this product is a "pro" from the start!
    Where else am i supposed to get phone technical support for FCE HD??

    These forums are here to give you technical advice. Admittedly it is not over the phone but it is FREE and lasts for ever.
    Also you will have the collective knowledge of numerous people not just the one "expert" you happen to be speaking to.

  • I download two free games from itunes, it is not showing up on my iphone. Help

    I downloaded two free games from itunes, it is not showing up on my iphone as an icon.  I see it when i have my phone linked to the computer,

    I think I may have confused you and I apologize. But you are also confusing me now.
    If you were not using restrictions before, then that is why the Allowed Content for Movies in in accessible. You can only access that if you had set a restrictions Passcode. If you do not have restrictions set, then it is a non issue and don't worry about that suggestion.
    Were you actively using restrictions on the iPad? If you weren't then you don't have to enable it now. That will not do any good.

  • HT204053 What are the pros and cons of 1) choosing to use the SAME Apple ID for iCloud services on one side, and purchases on the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBookstore, on the other side; or 2) to have and use two separate Apple Ids for these "two sides

    All is in the title, so I repeat it below with a better identation.
    What are the pros and cons of
    1) choosing to use the SAME
                                                  Apple ID for iCloud services on one side, and
                                                  purchases on the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBookstore, on the other side; or
    2) to have and use two separate Apple Ids for these "two sides"?
    P.S.
    I have loads and loads of free podcasts in iTunes in my iMac, that are certainly more thant the 5 gigas the iCloud provides for free, so I don't want those to go to the cloud. But this is perhaps a different question...
    Also need to mention that I have itunes on a mac, a pc and an iphone.
    Sorry to look so silly with this question, but I don't get the "big picture".

    You need to create a user account for your wife (or yourself depending on who has the current user account). When syncing, each of you should sign in as a separate user, login to iTunes and then sync. I had this problem when my sister got an iPhone. When we did her initial sync, everything on my iPhone showed up on hers. Apple gave me this solution.

  • How to connect two iMacs to the same FCE project?

    Hello All,
    Right now I have an iMac that is about 1 year old. I'm about to purchase another iMac. What I want to do is run FCE on both and work on the same video project on both. Is this possible?
    So the idea would be that I one person A could color correct and person B could edit and perform other functions on the second iMac. Can you hook them up by firewire and do this or is this beyond what you can do with FCE and two iMacs?
    Thanks for your help.
    Mike

    Hello Michael,
    First, you will need two fully licensed copies of FCE, one for each iMac. Each license allows you to install FCE on 1 Apple desktop + 1 Apple laptop as long as you own both computers and do not use FCE on both at the same time. But it *does not* allow you to install it on 2 Apple desktop computers (eg iMacs).
    Second, in order for two people on different computers to access the same project, you would have to store all the media & scratch files in a common location, and set up each copy of FCE to access the files from that location. The problems with this approach are 1) FCE cannot do this over a network, 2) you cannot connect an external FW drive to both computers at the same time, 3) FCE prefers that your FCE Project file(s) be on your system HD.
    You could use an external FW drive to store your media & scratch files; then connect the FW drive to the computer that is going to work on the project - but not to 2 computers at the same time. You will still have to copy the FCE project file between the two iMacs each time you swap from one to the other for editing.

  • What is the best free backup solution for Hyper-V R2/2012? CSV support is necessary

    Hi,
    I need so guidance, please.
    I’m planning to deploy a free backup solution for my virtual environment and I need your advice. I have the following configuration:
    Failover Cluster:
    Two Dell Servers
    OS: Windows 2012 STD
    Each server has two AMD Opteron 4180 6C @ 2.6 GHZ
    16 GB – RAM (supports 256GB)
    QNAP NAS (CSV)
    It’s hosting a DC, an Exchange 2010 and soon a SharePoint 2013 VM
    Standalone Hyper-V:
    Dell Server
    OS: Windows 2008 R2 Datacenter
    It has two Intel Xeon E5520 @ 2.2 GHZ
    16 GB - RAM
    It’s hosting 3 VMs
    In my research I found these apps. All of them are limited in some way but they do the job:
    Veeam Backup Free Edition v7
    Altaro Hyper-V Backup
    Unitrends Enterprise Backup
    PHD Virtual Backup for Hyper-V
    HV Backup from CodePlex
    Windows Server Backup (WSB)
    What is your experience with them? What would you recommend?
    When it comes to money, which one is more affordable? (In case I want to buy the full version)
    Thanks in advanced.
