Two types of video

I am new to FCP however I keep hearing about the ability of the program to adjust to different video clips. My project has 1920x1080 (29.97) and 1280x1080 (29.97) is this an issue? Is this the reason I am getting a large amount of dropped frame warnings on playback? The sequence is set at 1920x1080 (29.97) with the compressor on AJA 2Vuy Codec. Do I need to recapture this footage for have I just screwed up settings? The footage was captured out of an HDV Sony Z7U via an AJA Lhi card component set for DVCproHD. I'm lost.

Your setting sound messed up, and consequently you're getting dropped frames due to all the transcoding that FCP is trying to handle in order to deal with these mismatched settings.
Lets clear this up. In the FCP Browser window, select one of your 1920x1080 source clips and press Cmd-9 to call up the Item Properties window > Format tab ... now note down those displayed properties. Do the same for one of your 1280x1080 (?) clips. Do the same for the sequence.
Post back with all the details from the above exercise.

  • Help! converting two types of video into one format so I can edit

    Right Folks, go easy because I’m a novice.
    I’m having major problems getting two different types of video to work together in final cut pro 7.
    I’ve recorded something with two different HD cameras and I’m totally aware I need to convert them to the same format so I can begin to edit them. I’ve got Mpeg stream clip, could anybody help me convert them?

    Hi Dave, one of the cameras I have is Sanyo Xacti VPC-CG10 this shoots onto 16GB SDHC class 2, to work this in final cut I'm aware I have to compress using Apple ProRes 422 Codec which works fine.
    The other Camera is a panasonic I have shoots on SDHC Class 6 cards and I usually compress at HDV 720P 25fps. which also works fine.
    I can edit both individually, the latter, the panasonic camera is simple to capture and edit and is the camera I use the most but on this particular shoot I need to use both together.
    So I think its the Sanyo that's causing me the problem.

  • Type of Video Display "Out" Port on Mid-2006 and mid-2007 MBP's?

    Howdy
    The subject line above kind of says it all. I would like to know what type of video out port exists on these two models of MBP's: mid-2006 and mid-2007? In other words, what kind of Apple adapter would I have to buy to use these ports? Mini-DisplayPort, etc.?
    Thanks!
    DaveW

    Kappy, thank you for your fast reply. But, I am puzzled by it. A standard DVI port is rather Large and has many pins and the crosswise electrical flat pin. Are you saying that this large type of standard DVI port is present and physically fits on the edge of a Mac Book Pro?

  • Lion will not play any type of video AT ALL

    Problem after problem. No login to itunes...10 hours of troubleshooting later itunes is fixed. Now it will not play any type of video.....nothing. I'm starting to feel I have made a big mustake going to apple. An Ultra expensive version of windows that won't work at ALL...Fix one thing two more are broke

    does it play using vlc player?

  • How can I determine the type of video out connector I need?

    Howdy,
    I have a white macbook purchased Jun/2008. I want to connect to a TV but don't know what adapter I need. How can I determine the type of video out jack my macbook has?
    System Profiler says the model identifier is "MacBook 4,1". Under Graphics/Displays the only thing it says about the "Display Connector" is that no display is connected. Too bad it doesn't tell me what type of connector it is. If I knew the name of the connector I'd probably be home free. But it seems like every macbook model has a different video connector (since the state of the art has advanced over the years) and I haven't been able to keep up with the names.
    Now, I have a 6" long adapter that will convert this connector to VGA. And searching the Apple store for VGA adapters, the existence of mine says my connector is might be one of "Mini DisplayPort", "Apple Mini DVI", "Apple DVI", or "Apple Micro-DVI". But then there is also the connector at
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/M8639G/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
    and that looks like the one I have. But unlike the other adapters, this one is just called a "VGA Display Adapter". Does the connector have a name? How can I find adapters that have that same connector?
    I know I could use the adapter I have, plus a VGA to VGA cable, to hook up to a TV. But the quality of the VGA signal is poor in the digital world. My goal is to hook up to the TV via HDMI. Is this even possible? By which I mean, will my macbook generate the signals necessary to be able to be converted to HDMI?
    Thanks for any help,
    Zebulon T

    Thanks, Ded,
    You're right, the cable that I have won't work. I't from my previous, 2004 iBook. This is pretty embarrassing... I looked at the cable but didn't bother to try plugging it in.
    Looking at the close-up picture of the Mini-DVI to VGA adapter, that does look like the right connector. So I have Mini-DVI, and the other apter you pointed to can convert this to DVI. I'll take a look to see what makes the most sense, connector wise, downstream from that.
    Thanks very much.

  • How to use two types of fonts in a richtextdocument

    hello,
           i want to print a barcode and some text into  a richtextdocument
    example:
    this.richTextBox1.AppendText("\n");
    Font f1 = new Font("3 of 9 Barcode", 50);
    this.richTextBox1.Font = f1;
    this.richTextBox1.AppendText("*1234554*");
    Font f2 = new Font("Arial", 20);
    this.richTextBox1.Font = f2;
    this.richTextBox1.AppendText("fooo");
    but it always uses the second one?
    how can i resolve this?
    i want to use two types of fonts in the same rich text document.
    thank you very much!!

    Select some text and then set the SelectionFont property for each selection, e.g.:
    this.richTextBox1.AppendText("\n");
    this.richTextBox1.AppendText("*1234554*");
    richTextBox1.SelectionStart = 1;
    richTextBox1.SelectionLength = 9; //End of first word
    richTextBox1.SelectionFont = new System.Drawing.Font("Tahoma", 10);
    this.richTextBox1.AppendText("fooo");
    richTextBox1.SelectionStart = 10;
    richTextBox1.SelectionLength = 4;
    richTextBox1.SelectionFont = new System.Drawing.Font("Arial", 20);

  • What type of video card should I upgrade to?

    I want to upgrade to Bryce 6.0... it has new features I want, plus, it is designed to fully utilize the dual processors in my G5.
    But it requires a 128MB video card with OpenGL capability. My G5 came with (and still has) a 64MB GeForce FX 5200.
    1) So what type of video card should I get?
    And I'm also concerned about the heat (and, to a lesser degree, the noise from a fan)... I've been checking out the ATI website, and a lot of their video cards require a 300 watt power supply.
    2) Have any of you experienced problems with with heat from a video card? My loft is fine this time of year, but it gets a little warm in the summer months, even with the breezes off of Lake Michigan.
    Also, are there any other benefit to having a high-end video card?
    I am open to all suggestions, criticisms, tips, recommendations and ideas. I have no brand loyalty when it comes to video cards. Just don't try talking me out of upgrading to Bryce 6.0.
    Thanks!
    Power Mac G5 Dual 1.8GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   2GB RAM, Barracuda HD

    If you don't need anyting high-end, check into the ATI RADEON 9600 XT with 128MB DDR SDRAM. ATI's 800XT is a very popular card for AGP-equipped PM G5s like yours, but more costly.

  • How do I find out what type of video card I have?

    I just want to know what to do to know what type of video card I have. What steps do I take to find out?

    Go to "About This Mac" under the Apple menu. Select "More Info..." and then "System Report...". Look under Hardware>Graphics/Displays/ Your video card(s) will show up at the top.

  • Are there two type of associations between objects or are there just different representations?

    I've been spending some time on 're-tuning' some of my OOP understanding, and I've come up against a concept that is confusing me.
    Lets say I have two objects. A user object
    and an account object.
    Back to basics here, but each object has state, behaviour and identity (often referred to as an entity object).
    The user object
    manages behaviour purely associated with a user, for example we could have a login(credentials) method
    that returns if successfully logged in or throws exception if not.
    The account object
    manages behaviour purely associated with a users account. For example we could have a method checkActive() that checks if the account is active. The account object checks if the account has an up-to-date subscription, checks if there are any admin flags added
    which would make it inactive. It returns if checks pass, or throws exception if not.
    Now here lies my problem. There is clearly a relationship between user and account,
    but I feel that there are actually two TYPES of association to consider. One that is data driven (exists only in the data/state of the objects and the database) and one that is behaviour driven (represents an object call to methods of the associated object).
    Data Driven Association
    In the example I have presented, there is clearly a data association between user and account.
    In a database schema we could have the following table:
    USER_ACCOUNTS
    id
    user_id
    When we instantiate the account and
    load the database data into it, there will be a class variable containing user_id.
    In essence, the account object
    holds an integer representation of user through user_id
    Behaviour Driven Association
    Behaviour driven associations are really the dependencies of an object. If object A calls methods on object B there is an association going from A to B. A holds an object representation of B.
    In my example case, neither the user object
    nor the account object
    depend on each other to perform their tasks i.e. neither object calls methods on the other object. There is therefore no behaviour driven association between the two and neither object holds an object reference to the other.
    Question
    Is the case I presented purely a case of entity representation? The association between user and account is
    always present, but its being represented in different ways?
    ie. the user entity
    has an identity that can be represented in different forms. It can be represented as an object (the instantiated user object)
    or as a unique integer from the users table in the databases.
    Is this a formalised way of recognising different implementations of associations or have I completely lost my mind?
    One thing that bugs me is how would I describe the differences in UML or similar? Or is it just an implementation detail?

    It s a bit hard to fully understand what is problem actually in :). I think you are a bit mixing some concepts.
    Entities representation
    At first, all models we are implementing is just a simplification of some real-world objects and environment. Your conceptual entity user corresponds to some real user and contains some attributes we are intresteing in according to application needs. Thus there
    are some models we have to implement.
    Thus, all user defined by DB schema, user defined by class, and probably user defined by some presentation logic is normally present some real-world user. It is only about implementation purposes, we have to store, view and manipulate with user.
    On the other hand let's take a look on Single Responsibility Principle. It tells us to use every class or program unit just for certain needs. Using single user (class or program unit) for storage and presentation needs violates this principles.
    the user entity has an identity that can be represented in different forms. It can be represented as an object (the instantiated user object) or as a unique integer from the users table in the
    databases.
    So, the answer is yes.
    Associations and dependencies
    I think it is more about terminology than about nature of problem. But in general you are right - there are different types of object realtions (especially, I will use other terms to list it). For example "referencing", "creation", "using",
    "coordinating", "storing", "inheriting" (!) ....
    According to this, user instance references account instance. And A instance uses B instance.
    For most cases it is good enough to distinguish just "referencing" and "using". It is what you've just written. It's enough common and abstract to be understood by other person when talking about domain, e.g.
    But sometimes, to emphasize some aspects you should describe relations in a way like "A dispatches ensemble of Bs" or "R stores X to database". It's more applicable for specification and modelling.
    Is this a formalised way of recognising different implementations of associations or have I completely lost my mind?
    To call something formalized I suggest to look at UML.
    UML and other modelling instruments
    One thing that bugs me is how would I describe the differences in UML or similar? Or is it just an implementation detail?
    There are a lot of UML models (diagrams). Let's take a look at most well-known - Classes and Objects Diagram.
    It's interesting that UML allows to present all type of object relations, and moreover allows to decide "is it just an implementation detail".
    Martin Fowler describes 3 levels (or point of views) of understanding of Classes Diagram.
    Conceptual. Diagram is considered as high-level domain model, independent from implementation.
    Specification. Diagram is considered as high-level realization model containing of interfaces.
    Implementation. Diagram is considered as low-level technical paper containing interfaces, classes, references, other types of relations.
    Is this a formalised way of recognising different implementations of associations or have I completely lost my mind?
    Yes, you have to fix some point of view and choose appropriate relations set.
    For example, let's take a look at Classes Diagram and consider it from an implementation point of view. UML defines 3 type of relations (and propose corresponding means to its designation):
    Association
    Association corresponds "referencing" between instances.
    Dependency
    Dependency combines all types of relations such as "using", "creating", "storing", etc.
    Inheritance.
    Inheritances as a fundamental OOP instrument is presented by UML in a distinct way. It's more about classes than about instances, but also one can say that A instance inherit attributes of B instance. So, that's ok.
    First and second points of view on Class Diagram, as I remember uses only one type of relation unifying both associations and dependencies and is designated like association (no inheritance, of course).
    Also, UML proposes Objects Diagram which is same to Classes Diagram, but fits better for runtime modelling needs.
    Finally, a choice of a set of relations taken into consideration depends on a context and point of view. UML provides some ones.

  • Can we capture two types of Serial Numbers for a material?

    Hi,
    I have scenario where i need to capture two different types of serial numbers for a material. This scenario is very similar to the below one -
    Say if a CAR is a serialized material, then i want to capture engine no. and chasis no. for each car.
    I know in standard serial number management, we can capture one kind of serial no. for an item, but can we capture two types of serial number for an item? If yes, how we can do that?
    Please help.
    Thanks,
    Parimal.

    Hi,
    No it is not possible to have two serial numbers for a material.
    The main attribute of a serial number is that it is UNIQUE.
    You can better have the vehicle number as the required serial number and the other numbers under the Manufacturer data of the General data tab of the IQ01 transaction. ( Equipment master creation ).
    You can better change the name of the manufacturer data such as Model number to Engine numeber and Manu serial no to Chasis no etc.., using CMOD transactions.

  • Unsupported File Type: Invalid Video

    I'm creating a video project using iMovie. I'm now working on the DVD in iDVD and customizing my menus. I'm trying to drag pictures into the drop zone but I keep getting the message "Unsupported File Type: Invalid Video". Well first of all, its not even a video I'm trying to drag in, just regular JPEG photos. Second, I can usually drag pictures onto the main menu screen but when I get to the scene selections, that's when I start running into my problem. Has this happened to anyone else?
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    No, I've tried that. See, I can import like, the first 6 photos, after that I start getting the message. I even try importing the photos that I've already imported again and those won't even import.
    Awhile ago while I had those six pictures imported, I saved the project, closed it and reopened it. The pictures werent there.
    I've been trying any photo now that I have on my computer and nothing will import.

  • Unable to play any type of video on iTunes

    I currently have iTunes 11.0.5.5 running on a 64-bit version of Windows 7. My problem is that whenever I try to play any type of video file including Movies and Music Videos, iTunes freezes. I can not do anything to it. I can't even close iTunes, I can only close iTunes by using the Task Manager.
    This problem has been going on since iTunes was in version 10. I have already tried unistalling and reinstalling, but that didn't do anything to it.
    I do not know how or why this happend, but I need a solution to fix this problem.
