Universal Binaries for FCE HD?

will FCE HD be phased out? Or will apple introduce universal binaries for FCE HD? Or has it already been ported?
If anyone knows for sure, please post revelant URLs (rather than opinions)
thanks

Well I finally had a real project to work on and rendering is awfully hindered in Rosetta, which I should have expected.
I have several sequences about 5 min in length with several transitions like cross fade and fade to black. I also applied a color correction filter. Rendering takes about 10-15 minutes which, if I remember my G5's performance correctly, is way slow.
Also of note, there are dropped frames during playback when it reaches cuts with transitions and filters applied and is unrendered (real time playback).
Other than that, I was able to finish the project like I normally would have, it just took longer.

  • Universal Binaries for games

    Hey i was wondering f any one new when the universal binary versions of HALO Battlefield 1942, or Call of Duty are comming out.THanks!

    Zocker,
    Have a look here for an update on universal binary updates of a number of games. Aspyr has not announced its intention to release UB updates to either Battlefield 1942 or Call of Duty. According to the information at the link, both seem to run well under Rosetta. MacSoft has announced, in a forum, that it intends to release a UB update for HALO.

  • Epson scanning very slow - Universal binaries not ready yet...

    I just bought a iMac Dual Core to replace my G4 iMac 1.25Ghz. Both have 2gb of RAM. I am scanning my own art work to place on the web and to send by email.
    It turns out that scanning with my Epson scanner is not a bit faster. I just replaced the scanner in January with the latest model.
    After contacting Epson support, it turns out that no universal binary drivers are available and the current version is extremely slow...
    I just want to say that I find this extremely disappointing, there are a so many Epson scanners out there, and than this....
    And Epson can't / doesn't want to say when this will be fixed...
    Thank you for contacting the Epson Connection.
    We are currently testing new drivers for the Intel Duo Core System Macs.
    Once the testing is complete, new drivers will be posted on the applicable Epson Support web-sites. Due to the complexity of this process, we cannot promise an exact date for availability. Please check the Epson Support web-sites for any new driver postings at support.epson.com.

  • Estimated release date for Universal version of FCE-HD

    Anyone have an idea when the Universal version of FCE-HD will be released? I recently purchased a new Intel iMac, mainly for video work and can't do much until FCE is released. Unfortunately FCP is just too expensive for my limited budget.

    Unfortunately I don't have a purchasing track record with Apple. Actually, my last Apple purchase (prior to the iMac) was a pair of Lisa's. What do you bet the kids in the local Apple store never even heard of it. My plan at the time was to be an Apple developer, using the Lisa as a code development workstation. It never worked out in that my day job sent me to the Far East for several years and when I got back to my own software business, the Lisa was just a memory. Not having the money to retool in the Apple world, I moved over to Windows (3.0) and eventually became so heavily invested in Windows based software / hardware, there was no way to jump ship and return to the Mac. I promised myself that, once I retired, I would pack my last Windows machine to the recycle center and get myself a Mac... and here I am.
    Anyway, the next time I am able to get out and around, I'll stop by the local Apple store and see what can be done, price wise. I don't hold out much hope, but it doesn't hurt (much) to try.

  • Berkeley DB XML, Mac OS X 10.5 and universal binaries

    I am trying to build DBXML to run on a Mac 10.5, in order to compile the PHP module I need to build all the included libraries as universal binaries: did anyone succeed in doing so?
    I have tried in many ways, but although I set the compiler flags, I end up with compilation or linking errors.
    Thanks!

    I'm a java developer. This is the worst update apple has released for Java so far. When I installed this update it broke a few things:
    1. Brushed metal UI for JFrames work differently.
    2. Font metrics are not correct.
    I am sure that I had an issue with the font metrics in the past, which they fixed.. and its broken again. I am guessing its regression.
    I'll just have a rant about Apple's work with java and Fonts here because it costs me so much time writing "hacks" for their bad code:
    1. The true type fonts read the postscript name field for the font name and not the font name field (in the binary data of the TTF files). That is, Font getName() and getFontName() returns the data from table 6 and not 4 which it should do! This is the worst thing I found so far with java compatibility.
    Visit: http://scripts.sil.org/cms/SCRIPTs/page.php?siteid=nrsi&itemid=IWS-Chapter08
    Chapter 6 - Apple uses field 6 instead of 4 for getFontName() and getName() for Font. Such a bad bug I had to write my own TTF font reader.
    2. Where is the 32 bit version of java 6?
    3. I lodged a bug about AffineTransform and justified text being broken about 1 1/2 years ago, still hasn't been fixed.
    What's going on Apple?

  • [Intel] Any list of Universal Binaries and apps running under Rosetta?

    Hi!
    Sorry, I'm not sure about posting into the right group, but found no other place with similar threads...
    I just try to figure out if all my apps will run under Rosetta or are available as Universal Binaries (and how much will the vendors charge for them). It's really a pain...
    Do you folks know any web site or forum with a "Rosetta compatibility list" and an overview about available Universal Binaries?
    I will not consider a change without e. g. a working backup solution (Retrospect), AppleWorks, EyeTV and a few other apps...

    Mike,
    AppleWorks seems to work unter Rosetta (referring to
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=314806
    My greatest concern is Dantz' Retrospect and I haven't found a testing or even an information a Dantz' web site, yet.
    But replacing my iBook with a MacBook wouldn't happen in the near future anyway...

  • 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.

  • Does Av digital adapter works with the universal dock for remote control?

    if I only connect the Lightning to 30 pin adapter to the universal dock for remote control it works so good with music, spotify, Netflix, YouTube etc.
    but if I add the av digital lightning adapter to watch on Tv, the dock and remote control don't work anymore    what can I do? I want to watch stuff on tv and use the IR dock for remote control please help me what's going wrong?

    Thanks for your advice.
    I recently purchased a universal dock for my iphone 3g. It works great. I just had one question. When my iphone is sitting on it for lets say 20 - 30 minutes. Then if i press the buttons on the remote. nothing happens! If I then press the home button while it is on the cradle then, the remote, it plays music. There after lets say if I stop stop the music through the remote and again press the remote button after a few minutes it starts playing. So what happens after a long time. Why do i have to press the home button on the iphone for the remote to work. Is that how it is supposed to work???
    Thanks

  • Need help setting up external hard drive for FCE project

    Hi folks,
    Basically I am looking at making a 20-30 minute video this summer of my motocross adventures and what not and have equipped myself with an iMac (2.93 GHZ Core2Duo 640GB 4GB) and of course, FCE. I have tried smaller projects before (ranging in length between 20 seconds to upwards of a few minutes) but have noticed an overall decline in computer speed which I am under the impression is being caused by the 10s of GBs of video project files and what not that seem to be scrawled away within my computer. Before I made any videos, my computer was sitting around 560 GBs of free space. Since making maybe 3-4 videos (50/50 iMovie and FCE) its down below 400GBs. I'm not sure whether it's the raw video files or the projects themselves that are so large, but it's slightly frustrating. Is there any sort of software (either third party or apple) that can look at your hard drive and tell you exactly where all the biggest files are? I'll post this question in the iMac forum as I realize this is for FCE, but I thought if anyone knew of one it would be extremely helpful.
    Anyways, I have a SimpleDrive 320GB external HD that I plan to use as my external for making this project within FCE and would like some help in terms of how to set it up with FCE, what are the best settings etc. It is currently formatted with Windows, so I will also need help in setting it up for a Mac. I do have about 120GBs used on it already and was also wondering if I could keep this when re-formatting, but I'm pretty sure I already know the answer to that.
    Sorry for the long-winded post; any information on this or something related would be fantastic. Thanks.

    Yes, you can use your external HD with FCE ... provided it is formatted as +Mac OS Extended+ and is connected via FireWire.
    You will need to back up any data that is on the drive that you want to keep. Before reformatting it. Formatting erases everything that is on the drive.
    Use Disk Utility (located in your +Applications > Utilities+ folder) to format the drive.
    After formatting the drive, go into +FCE > System Settings+ and change your FCE scratch disk location to the external drive.

  • What is better when converting analog video for FCE, Canopus100/110/300/or5

    All,
    What is better when converting analog video for FCE, Canopus100/110/300/or500? I have a new MACPRO with FCE HD and I wanted to convert some of my older video that was recorded on a HI8 Camcorder... Thanks.

    I have the ADVC-100 (older model) and ADVC-110. They are identical except that the ADVC-110 does not come with an AC power adapter. Currently sells for about $220USD. If all you need to do is convert from HI8 tapes, the ADVC100/110 will do the job quite nicely.
    The ADVC300 adds some enhancements for video signal cleanup, but at a higher price. Currently sells for about $450USD. The ADVC500 is overkill for home use.

  • Ken Burns effect - sutible plugin for FCE

    Hello,
    I have been looking though the forums and searching the net for a decent ken burns plug-in for FCE that allows an iMovie style action on a photo.
    As I need to inlcude many photos I want something quicker then manipulating using keyframes, BUT I really would like something in FCE not just do it in iMovie and import it in.
    Has anyone come accross a decent plugin for this? preferrably one which doesnt cost more the FCE itself!
    Many Thanks
    Andy.

    Ian,
    That looks like a nice package. I remember looking at their offerings a while back, but found that my graphics card prevents their software from running on my computer. Here are the requirements taken from the Noise Industries site. These are the supported cards on both Intel and Power PC machines:
    • ATI Radeon 9550, 9650, 9600, 9600 XT, 9700, 9800, 9800 XT, X800, X850, X1600, X1900 XT, HD 2400 XT, HD 2600 PRO, HD 2600 XT, HD 3870
    • ATI Mobility Radeon 9600, 9700, 9800, X1600
    • NVIDIA GeForce 6600, 6800 Ultra DDL, 6800 GT DDL, 7300, 7600, 7800 GT, 7800 Ultra, 8600M GT, 8800 GT, 9400M, 9600M
    • NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500, 5600
    For best performance, a graphics card with a minimum of 256MB video memory is recommended.
    The following graphics cards are not supported:
    • NVIDIA GeForce FX Go 5200
    • NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 Ultra
    • Intel GMA 950, X3100
    • ATI Radeon 8500, 9000, 9200
    Then I looked at the GeeThree offerings and find that you need FCE 4. I have 3.5.1. So until a new Mac shows on my desk, I'll stick with using the motion tab to animate stills.

  • Universal Adapter for CRM

    Dear All,
    I am involved in a case recently that need to use Universal Adapter for CRM Analytics to extract data from a 3rd-party CRM system.
    The subject area is Consumer Sector - Performance. According to BI Apps Installation and Configuration Guide, I need to populate some source files, such as file_costlst_g.csv, file_dual_g and so on. However, I don't know what exactly data that the source files needed and the Installation and Configuration Guide doesn't supply enough information about the source files.
    Can some one give me the help to find any detailed documents or other resources about Universal Adapter and the source files of Universal Adapter ?
    Thanks very much!

    The Source files for Universal Adapter are always CSV files ...These are used for customizations...
    Now coming to the configuration files follow the Installation and Configuration guide ... the parameters are there ...most of them
    Cheers

  • 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.
