Using a Bi-directional Media Converter in FC Pro

I have a Canopus ADVC 300 Bi-directional Media Converter. I'm having an issue with syncing (Voice & Lips). When I look at my canvas monitor and my external monitor (my video is maybe 1 or 2 frames off to the left or the right. I have to say most of these movies are coming from YouTube. Does that make a difference? They look in sync when I play them back in QuickTime 7 Player, (but not on the timeline) I have my settings in FC Pro set to 29.97. In the process of trying to make sense of it all, I'll try 29.97 and 30 fps. Is there a big difference there? Also, I started out using the H.264, it didn't seem to work that well for me. Right now i'm working Apple ProRes 422 High Quality. it seems to work a little better.
You might have better recommendations.
Thank You!

Is the audio following the video out through the Canopus or are the speakers being fed by an audio out through the computer?
The audio should be fed through the Canopus.
What is the clip frame rate? That is what you need to know.
fwiw - As you seem to have discovered, h.264 is not an editing codec.
Why are you using ProResHQ for youtube material? It is a total waste of hard drive space and bandwidth demand for zero benefit. ProResLT would be a much better choice.

HDV conversion for Premiere CC Windows using Adobe Media Converter

We are trying to use HDV footage in Premiere CC on a Windows system. The HDV footage was given to us already been captured on a drive. It will play using different players. We need to convert it to a format that Windows Premiere CC can understand. When we go to convert the footage in Adobe Media Converter, it can not even read the footage to be able to convert it. The Export Settings/Source says "Media Pending" What are we missing here? Thanks.

"Media Pending" means just that...be patient. When I import HDV clips into Premiere, I get that same message on screen, but at lower right of Premiere screen it will show a progress bar for "Indexing" of the MPEG video. Once that completes, then I can see the video. Give it a try in Premiere. HDV is definitely supported.
Thanks

Media Converter for 3550 w/gig ports

Hey guys,
Got a question. I have a 3550 w/ 10 fiber ports and 2 copper ports. I have to upgrade IOS and am trying to find some type of media converter to fit into the fiber ports and convert it to copper ports. Both of the copper ports on the device are being utilized and I'd like to upgrade the IOS w/o disconnecting the devices attached to them.
I would think there would be some sort of card that I could plug into the slot and convert it to copper and plug my laptop directly into that.
Thanks!
Colin

I assume from your description of the switch it is a 3550-12G (WS-C2550-12G). This has 10 GBIC-based 1000BaseX ports and 2 10/100/1000 ports. There are 5 different types of GBIC's that can be installed in the 10 GBIC slots:
WS-X3500-XL ---- GigaStack Stacking GBIC
WS-G5484 ---- 1000BaseSX
WS-G5486 ---- 1000BaseLX/LH
WS-G5487 ---- 1000BaseZX
WS-G5483 ---- 1000BaseT
If you want to connect devices using Copper then the 1000BaseT GBIC can be used. This only works at Gigabit Speeds though and can't negotiate down to 10 or 100Mbps (unlike the 1000BaseT SFP GBIC when installed in the 3560 & 3750).

Media converter

We need a media converter which should convert 1000 Mbps (TP-RJ45) to 1000 Mbps SX (Multi-mode Fiber)
The length of the Fiber cable is 1 (One) Kilometer.
Fiber Cable Type: 6 Core, 62.5/125µm
Connector Type: MM SC connectors
is there any type of media converter which conntect with fiber cable with the lenghth of 1 KM and provide multi-mode, there are lot of converter which i see on net they only work in muti-mode with in the range of 550 meters. on the other hand we have a cat 6 cable.

Gigabit Ethernet over multimode fiber is supported only over limited distances. I would recommend installing single mode fiber if that's possible, and using 1000BASE-LX optics. Otherwise, 100-megabit Fast Ethernet is probably the best you can get out of that length of multimode, as ScottMac said.
If you use 1000BASE-SX short wavelength optics over 62.5µm multimode, the maximum supported link length is 220m to 275m, depending on the modal bandwidth of the fiber.
If you use 1000BASE-LX long wavelength optics over 62.5µm multimode, the maximum specified link length is 550m. And you need mode conditioning patch cables to provide an offset launch of the LX signal into the multimode fiber.
Having said that, I think it may be possible for you to push Gigabit Ethernet out to 1km over 62.5 multimode. I have read that even worst-case multimode fiber links can support LX out to 700m, and that the distance was reduced to 550m to agree with the ISO/IEC 11801 structured cabling model. So, if you don't have worst-case fiber you might be able to do this. But it really, really, really depends on knowing the exact manufacturer and product number of your fiber, in order to determine what it's capable of. Testing the fiber with an OTDR wouldn't hurt, either.
As far as equipment is concerned, your best chances to go from a copper (RJ-45) Gigabit port across your 1km of multimode fiber to an SX fiber (SC) Gigabit port on the other side, would be with two different media converters. One that converts from 1000BASE-T to 1000BASE-LX; and the other that converts from 1000BASE-LX back to 1000BASE-SX. Use mode conditioning patch cables on the LX ports, and a regular multimode patch cable on the SX port.
Transition Networks www.transition.com is another manufacturer of media converters worth checking out. I have used theirs on a number of occasions, with good results.
Hope this helps.

Using photoshop elements 6.0 - converting raw photos files to dng, how/where do I add metadata?

Metadata can be added in Properties panel. select a file and hit Alt+Enter. It will open up Properties panel. You may drag drop tags on the media and do File > Write tags info to files to write tags in file metadata.

I have a new Nikon D750 sitting on my desk and can't edit the photos with any adobe product? We are in full wedding season and am a little frustrated. Photo mechanics opens them right up to download them. I am using the Nikon software to convert them

I have a new Nikon D750 sitting on my desk and can't edit the photos with any adobe product? We are in full wedding season and am a little frustrated. Photo mechanics opens them right up to download them. I am using the Nikon software to convert them into tiffs. when is the camera raw update coming out. I am not the only photographer with this issue check out all the chatter about it.

This happens every single time a new camera comes out from one of the two big camera makers. Nikon and Canon do not send preproduction units to Adobe, so Adobe has to go out and buy a D750 or whatever from the store to test and profile it before they can update Lightroom. They can't get one earlier than you and I can. The profiling is quite an extensive operation. Other camera makers do send preproduction units, use dng, or do the profiling in-house and there you often get support right from release. If camera makers would finally embrace an open raw format such as dng, this whole problem would be gone but both Canon and Nikon seem to think they live in an upside-down world where their clients only use their software.
Usually the dead period only lasts a few weeks but it is frustrating nevertheless. My only advice is to not buy a new camera at the day of release and expect to have third parties to support it. You definitely should not be buying these cameras right away if your business depends on it. Aperture, Capture One, etc. have the exact same problem. No third party (read non-Nikon in this case) will support the camera from the release date. Some are quicker than other adding support. Adobe is somewhere in the middle of the pack in this respect. Nobody outside of Adobe knows when an update comes out. Could be tomorrow, could be a few more weeks or a month. They might jump straight to Lightroom 6 and never add direct support to LR 5. Sometimes they will first bring out a beta version of dng converter that will convert the new camera's nef files to dng, which will work fine in the current Lightroom before updating Lightroom itself.

Capturing footage using an analogue to digital converter

Hi
I've recently edited a 2 hour mutli-camera show from Digi Beta. We captured
the footage via firewire, cut the programme and mastered it to DVD for
duplication. We've now been asked to online the programme for broadcast.
Presumably this should be a simple task:
* capture the footage from Digi Beta with an analogue to digital
converter
* Export the current programmes as an EDL into a DigiBeta (PAL)
version.
* Render anything necessary
* Import the online audio
* Output to DigiBeta with the Digital to analogue converter.
Please can someone recommend a suitable D-A converter? We were thinking of
getting an AJA Kona LH/ LHe.
Also, is there anything else we may have missed in the process / potential
pitfalls?
We usually offline on FCP 5.1.2 and give and EDL to a post-production
facility but figure doing it ourselves will be a cheaper option.
Current kit spec:
Mac OS X version 10.4.8
Processor 4 x 2.5 GHz Power PC G5
Memory 4.5 GB DDR2 SDRAM
Thanks

just on the semantics of it ... analogue doesn't come into it
DigiBeta is digital, so is FCP. you need an I/O card.
the Kona LHe from AJA is a very good choice, as are the Decklink offerings from Blackmagic Design.
the method would be to create an "offline" version of your project with the "online" codec/resolution setting of your choice. you do this using FCP's "File > Media Manager" tool. next you would use Batch Capture to capture the media needed to recreate your sequence at that codec/resolution (using the DigiBeta masters via the I/O card to your Mac). then you'd output the upresed "online" version back to Digibeta (again going via the card)
potential pitfalls ... media manager has a long history of being hopeless
chck this post: http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=-1&messageID=1075398
(although apple claims media manager is feeling much better now)

What application do you use to open windows media or real player?

I'm a new user, and It says I need to download windows media player to watch video clips from comedy central, so I downloaded the one for the macbooks, but then it says I dont have a specified application to open the media player I just downloaded. Does anyone know what application to use to open the media player? or any other player I could download where I dont need an application to open it? If anyone knows how, please write me back, thank you for helping.

You can go directly to flip4mac.com, to get wmv codec for quicktime, but it only allows you to play unprotected wmv files (wmv v9 I guess).
For realvideo, there is a realvideo mac player, on real website. Just install it...

Prisma MediaCenter media converter

Can someone tell me exactly how Prisma MediaCenter 20 slot converter is deployed. Actually I am looking for a multiport media converter (Fibre to Copper) box than has a reasonably high port density. I need to connect several devices with fibre ports to a C6500 switch with only GE copper ports and don't want to use single port module converters. I saw Prisma MediaCenter 20/slot chasis in a search result and wonder whether it can be used for this purpose.
Thanks

No . . . and no.

SFP to media converter

Hello.
I want to connect two endpoints through a 62.5 mm fiber. One endpoint is a Catalyst 2960 and the other is a PLC
It has been tested to work with 2 Allied Telesis media converters (RJ-45 to 100Base-FX). One for each endpoint.
I'd like to know if I can try to connect a GLC-GE-100FX= (SFP in the switch) at one end and the media converter at the PLC's side.
I don't have any GLC-GE-100FX= to try so I'd like to know if they would work before acquiring one of them.
Thank you.
Javier F.

Hello.
It's an Allied Telesis AT-MC101XL-10 (multimode 100Base-FX) at one end and a 2960 with a GLC-GE-100FX at the other end.
The length of the link would not be longer than 700 meters over 62.5/125 multimode fiber.
I've attached both the datasheet and the installation guide of the transceiver.
I think that this should work since both ends use the 100Base-FX standard. Is this correct?
Thank you,
Javier F.

How to Change Wi-Fi Channel Used by Wireless Direct on HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium?

I would like to change the Wi-Fi channel that is used by Wireless Direct between my Lenovo laptop and my HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium to reduce interference from other nearby users of Ch. 6 in my condo complex. (I am not using a wireless router setup to connect to the printer.)
Is this possible? If so, how?

Ah... ok. You are using the Wireless Direct with the printer. You computer is wireless to channel 6. That is all you can do unless you changed the router's wireless channel which will only automatically switch on your computer.
