Universal Disk Format (UDF) into FCE4

Does anyone know if you can or how to import Universal Disk Format (UDF) into FCE4

The UDF file system itself is not really relevant.
If you are really asking about converting DVD video for editing in FCE, then you need the following:
MPEG Streamclip and the Apple QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component  (you need both)
Use MPEG Streamclip to convert the DVD video to QuickTime/Apple Intermediate Codec.  Then in FCE select an Easy Setup that matches your video and import the converted file(s) into FCE

  • Universal Disk Format to iMovie

    Hello,
    I put in a DVD which was burned in an iMac and it won't open in iMovie. When looking up the "get info" on the file it says it is in Universal Disk Format. How do I get it into the imovie clip section?
    Thanks

    iMovie is for editing uncompressed DV streams, and transferring to iDVD for compression to the standard DVD format of mpeg2.
    DVDs do not play or open in iMovie but in the DVD Player.

  • Sync DVD in Universal Disc Format (UDF) to my AppleTV

    I was wondering if anyone out there could point me in the right direction. Some time ago I made a home movie using iMovie/iDVD and my only back up after a hard disk crash is a DVD in Universal Disc Format. How can I convert this DVD to a format that will be accepted in iTunes and thus be synced to my Apple TV?
    Thanks!

  • Tip: iMovie "Archive all..." saves files from AVCHD, then ingest into FCE4

    I just discovered a useful trick. Much is made in the FCE4 manual about not being able to ingest AVCHD footage from a disk - you have, it says, to use the camcorder. Not so if you have iMovie 09 as well (not sure about earlier versions).
    Connect the camcorder to the Mac and open iMovie 09. Click the camera icon to open the capture window if it doesn't do it automatically and click the "Archive all..." button at the bottom of the window. When you save the "archive" file, you end up with a folder that contains everything from the camcorder.
    Disconnect the camcorder.
    Now open FCE 4. Go to File > Log and Transfer. The window opens but there's nothing there to ingest. Drag the archive file onto the left-hand pane or use the "Add Folder" button at the top left to find and open the archive folder. The AVCHD files appear in the window as if the camcorder were attached and you can ingest them in the normal way.
    I find this handy for dumping everything off the camera and storing it in its smaller, native format for working on later. I'd imagined I was going to have to store all my archived footage in SuperSized Intermediate Codec format, which was quite a scary prospect, but this means I can save many camerafuls of stuff at its native size and still ingest selected bits into FCE4 at any time when I want to play around with them
    Obviously native AVCHD support would be even more splendid, but this is a useful work around for now.
    (note: I'm using a Canon HF-S10, but I'm assuming this would work for other AVCHD camcorders)

    you did!
    as the iMovie guy here at the boards, I raise the flag for 'my' tool.. because, read exactly, what FC Mastermind Tom told you:
    .. Any folder than _maintains the AVCHD wrapper_ can be used, whether it's created in iMovie or simply by dragging the disk or memory card contents to a a hard drive.
    means: if you drag just the .mts files, which contains the 'video' => kaputt, no import into FCE (or iMovie)
    all those BDMV, AVF_INFO, cpi, bdm, bnp, whatever files & folders have to complete and untouched transfered to disk..
    .. ok, what could go wrong by dragging a whole folder from cam to HDD.. ? but, iM makes it .. dummy-proof.. (no offense!!!!)..

  • Universal Disc format to iMovie

    Recorded a DVD from a VHS tape on a Sony VHS-DVD recorder. I am able to open in my Mac in the DVD player, but I cannot import to iMovie. The disc shows up as a folder icon in the desktop in a Universal Disc Format. How can I import to iMovie. Thanks

    the usual reply in the iM section of this board would be... :
    DVDs are in a socalled delivery format (mpeg2), which isn't meant and made for any processing as editing...
    for using the iLife apps, you have to convert'em first, in recommended order, choose one of the following tools/workarounds:
    * DVDxDV (free trial, 25$, Pro: 90$)
    * Apple mpeg2 plugin (19$) + Streamclip (free)
    * VisualHub (23.32$)
    * Cinematize >60$
    * Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in
    * Toast 6/7/8 allows converting to dv/insert dvd, hit apple-k
    * connect a miniDV Camcorder with analogue input to a DVD-player and transfer disk to tape/use as converter
    none of these apps override copyprotection mechanisms as on commercial dvds...

  • Importing VHS video into FCE4 via a camcorder

    Hello,
    I’m trying to import some old family videos that were recorded on an old VHS camera (now long departed) into Final Cut Express 4 using a Sony DCR-TR330 camcorder & a VHS player.
    The camcorder is connected to my iMac via the firewire interface, the VHS player is connected to the “audio/video” input on my camcorder
    When I press play on the VHS player the video appears in the Final Cut Express 4 capture window (the audio also plays) When I click “Capture Now” on the capture window I get the message:
    “Waiting for Timecode
    Device must be in VTR mode when Device Control is enabled”
    If I first record the VHS video onto a Hi8 tape in the camcorder, I can then import the video (& audio) into FCE4 using the “Capture Now” button.
    Is there any way to import the video straight into FCE8 instead of first having to transfer it to the Hi8 format.
    Thanks for any help.
    John Hutchinson

    Many thanks for your prompt reply,
    I am now able to capture straight from VHS to FCE4
    Kind Regards

  • Vob files into fce4

    i created a dvd years ago with sony vegas before i switched to MAC best move ever...
    how can i import the VOB files form a dvd that i created into FCE4?

    MPEG Streamclip is a conversion program used for converting pretty much any type of file into many types of other files. At its most basic use, the program is great for converting non-supported media to media that can be used within FCE.
    MPEG-2 is a non-supported video format. MPEG Streamclip is based around QuickTime as far as I know, and QuickTime can not open MPEG-2 files without first obtaining the MPEG-2 component.
    If you don't have the codec or component that allows you to edit or view a certain type of file, then you aren't able to use that file. It's not silly, that's just how video works.

  • OWB11gR2 - simple and easy way to load XML formatted data into db tables?

    Hi,
    we're currently trying to load table data stored in XML files into our datawarehouse using OWB 11gR2.
    However, we're finding this is not quite as trivial as loading flat files...
    Most postings on this forum points to the blog-entry title "Leveraging XDB" found here (http://blogs.oracle.com/warehousebuilder/2007/09/leveraging_xdb.html).
    This blog also references the zip-file owb_xml_etl_utils.zip, which seems to have disappeared from it's original location and can now be found on sourceforge.
    Anyway, the solution described is for OWB 10g, and when trying to import experts from the zip-file etc. we end up not being able to run the "Create ETL from XSD" expert, as the 11gR2 client is different from the 10g and does not have the Experts menu et.al.
    Also, this solution was published over 3 years ago, and it seems rather strange that importing XML-formatted data should still be so cumbersome in the newer warehouse builder releases.
    The OWB 11gR2 documentation is very sparse (or rather - quite empty) on how to load XML data, all it has is a few lines on "XML Transformations", giving no clue as to how one goes about loading data.
    Is this really the state of things? Or are we missing some vital information here?
    We'd have thought that with 11g-releases, loading XML-data would be rather simple, quick and painless?
    Is there somewhere besides the blog mentioned above where we can find simple and to the point guidelines for OWB 11gR2 on how to load XML-formatted data into Oracle tables?
    Regards,
    -Haakon-

    Yes it is possible to use SQL*Loader to parse and load XML, but that is not what it was designed for and so is not recommended. You also don't need to register a schema, just to load/store/parse XML in the DB either.
    So where does that leave you?
    Some options
    {thread:id=410714} (see page 2)
    {thread:id=1090681}
    {thread:id=1070213}
    Those talk some about storage options and reading in XML from disk and parsing XML. They should also give you options to consider. Without knowing more about your requirements for the effort, it is difficult to give specific advice. Maybe your 7-8 tables don't exist and so using Object Relational Storage for the XML would be the best solution as you can query/update tables that Oracle creates based off the schema associated to the XML. Maybe an External Table definition works better for reading the XML into the system because this process will happen just once. Maybe using WebDAV makes more sense for loading XML to be parsed (I don't have much experience with this, just know it is possible from what I've read on the forums). Also, your version makes a difference as you have different options available depending upon the version of Oracle.
    Hope all that helps as a starter.

    Do you have a smaller capacity micro SD card to try? I seem to remember from past posts that users were having problems with cards larger than 32GB, however, Apple's page doesn't mention this.

  • FileVault: cannot enable due to "wrong disk format"

    Hi fellow Mac users,
    I just tried to enable FileVault on my iMac 27" but I got an error message (after completing the security questions and hitting "restart") that FileVault cannot be activated because "due to wrong disk format: some disk formats do not support the recovery partion that needs to be created... "
    My internal disk however has never been touched by me, it is Mac OS Extended (Journaled) / GUID, so imho everything should be fine.
    Do you have any ideas what might be wrong?
    thanks a lot
    best
    Wolfgang

    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    { diskutil list; echo; diskutil cs list; } | open -f -a TextEdit
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
    A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
    If any personal information appears in the output, anonymize before posting, but don’t remove the context.

  • HT202174 In need to change from appleshare to mac os journaled disk format on my time capsule. How to proceed?

    In need to change from appleshare to mac os journaled disk format on my time capsule. How to proceed?

    No Time Capsule disk can be formatted other than the automatic system in the TC itself.. You simply select erase and it will reformat the drive.
    If you are referring to a USB drive.. plugged into a Time Capsule.. you must plug it into your Mac and use Disk Utility.
    However you do need to understand.. appleshare is not a disk format.. it is a partition scheme.. so when you pick the disk you need to change its partition to GUID.. this is nothing to do with Mac OS journaled format.. the two are distinctly different. Also Appleshare works fine for most people.. there really is no need to change.
    Anyway here is how to do it.
    I have sd card I can use as example. Click on the Partition Layout.. so you can choose something else.. notice it is presently set to Master Boot Record.. but is formatted Mac OS Extended Journaled.
    When you change the partition layout Options at the bottom will become active and you can change the setting. Click Options.
    Choose whichever. GUID is the current system for boot drives.
    None of this is relevant to the internal disk of the Time Capsule.

  • Can't import an avi into FCE4 that QuickTime Player reads properly

    New to FCE4 but coming from an Adobe Premier Windows NLE. I have generated an avi file on my Windows machine that i have copied over to my MBP. QTP has no problems playing the video/audio. When I try to import the file into FCE4 I can see the avi file name grayed out until I change the "standard files" selection to "any files". Then I can select the file but I get the following error message:
    File Error: 1 file recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown.
    I really would like to capture onto my Windows machine with my Canopus ADVC-300 and then transfer the avi to FCE4 via a harddrive for further processing. Dumping to tape and recapturing is a lot more work.
    Any ideas?
    Mark

    I am a newbie to all this but from experience I have successfully converted numerous video formats to work with FCE.
    You can try to export/convert your Windows AVI into a DV stream file using either QuickTime Pro, StreamClip or VisualHub.
    It doesn't have to be a DV stream file, you can just experiment to see which files FCE likes.
    (I think I also tried to convert using iMovie before; try using your AVI with iMovie also and convert it into a format that FCE likes)
