Using EX1 and native Long GOP with FCP

Hi,
I have heard it suggested on forums that presently FCP has a preference to convert HDV to prores and that if you want to work with GOP, the files have to be converted to prores in compressor for the workflow?
How does FCP handle native GOP as a workflow rather then converting to prores? I have a Macbook 2.2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4GB ram and am worried that my system will not be fast enough to work with this material?
Also, if I work with native GOP and set the render to prores 442, will this have any effect on the performance on FCP (bearing in mind the speed of my machine)?
Thanks

I have heard it suggested on forums that presently FCP has a preference to convert HDV to prores and that if you want to work with GOP, the files have to be converted to prores in compressor for the workflow?
When capturing from HDV via Firewire you have the option to capture as native HDV, Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC) or Apple ProRes 422. All of these formats are natively supported formats that you can easily work with in FCP. Your post title suggests that you are actually working with an EX1 and so would not be capturing HDV via Firewire. With the EX1 your basic choice would be direct clip transfer via the Sony's Log and Transfer plugin or by using Sony's XDCAM Transfer app, neither of which provide transcode during capture to any other codec. Such captured footage would have to be transcoded after capture, using Compressor or similar, if you wished to work natively in a different format. Alternatively you could use a third party I/O device to capture your footage to another format via the camera's HD-SDI output.

FCP handles working with native HDV easily. With FCP 6 you also have the option of choosing to work with the native HDV and have FCP handle all rendering using the Apple ProRes 422 codec. Another option in FCP is the Open Format Timeline, which like the rendering option above, allows you to edit with the native HDV clips directly in an Apple ProRes 422 timeline. Your MacBook should be fast enough to handle any of the above workflow choices, though my recommendation for you would be to work in a native HDV timeline with renders set to ProRes. That set up would probably provide the maximal performance for your system.
Also, if I work with native GOP and set the render to prores 442, will this have any effect on the performance on FCP (bearing in mind the speed of my machine)?
As noted, that setup should work well.

Who uses Final Touch SD in conjunction with FCP? Why? Why not?

It is my understanding that Final Touch is much faster than daVinci.
You are in error...
Depends on the operator and the machine. With a DaVinci you are going tape to tape and the colorist is coloring each shot. When they are done, then they press play and all their settings apply in real time as the tapes roll.
With Final Touch, you have to render your final product after you do all the coloring. Typically the render will take longer than it takes a tape to play, depending on the machines processor power. But still, 4-5 hours for a 30-60 minute show...darn slow. If you had the same colorist on both, Final Touch would be slower.
BUT...the advantage is that you color BEFORE you go to tape. So doing your texted and textless outputs are darn easy.

Getting red frames when export from cc 2014.2 codec used panasonic mxf format long GOP 50p. If any solution please help on that

getting red frames when export from cc 2014.2 codec used panasonic mxf format long GOP 50p. If any solution please help on that

i solve my red frame problem. originally my project was done in premiere pro cc 2014.2 & i render in Encoder cc 2014. in newer version i get lots of red frames. i complain a lot to adobe customer support . they said they know the issues but they couldn't solve. I was so tired from adobe customer support. one of the worse customer services i had. My friend got the mac pro & e got premiere pro cc 7.2 version. i convert all my footage mxf to mp4 in encoder cc 7.2 version and i succeed. i don't get any red frames.
So i think the problem is in adobe encoder cc 2014.2 version. newer version.

HT1476 After update to either iOS 7.0.3 or 7.0.4, my iPhone 4S won't charge. I'm using charger and cable that came with the phone. Nothing else changed.

I'm using charger and cable that came with the phone. Nothing else changed.
I think it was the update the iOS 7.0.4 that I did last night. I woke up this morning with my battery almost drained and the charging function going off and on every few seconds, like it would start charging then disconnect, then reconnect repeatedly.
I've tried restarting the phone and hard restarting the phone several times, but I'm getting really low on battery by now (under 20%).
I've tried cleaning the connector with a little isopropyl alcohol, and blowing it out with compressed air. Though I can't be 100% certain, it's very unlikely my connector died exactly at the same time I was updating my phone. Especially since it appears I'm not the only one with this problem.
And now, after the last hard reset, my phone doesn't even recognize the charger at all, or being connected with the USB cable to my MacBook Pro.
I turned off my phone so when I go to the Apple Store it will power up one last time, but besides that I'm out of ideas.

Just back from Genius Bar and two other people at my table had the same problem. Their 4Ss aren't charging either. One of them had a fried board according to the tech. At least my HW checked out OK. It just won't charge.
The tech tried to tell me that it was because my connector was corroded, which I told him was kind of a weak argument since evidence points to that the update has something to do with it.
They're seeing a lot of these and it looks like they already have a script.
Luckily I had enough juice left to recycle it for like $180, so I picked up a 5S with a new 2 year.
It looked to me like this is going to blow up pretty big. Like class action lawsuit big.
If you have an iPhone 4 or 4S, and you haven't updated it to iOS 7, don't for now. See if a patch comes out that doesn't brick your phone. Or get an induction charger maybe? Don't just update and expect absolutely no problems because too many people are having problems right now.

Java, Adobe Acrobat, HP Web Printing, Adobe Contribute, all of which people use world round no longer compatible with Firefox? Maybe it's time to go back to IE.

Firefox used to be the best, now its working against every piece of software i use in the publishing industry. Java is important, so is Adobe Acrobat, and Adobe contribute.
Maybe it is time to kick Firefox to the curb. Firefox is not getting better, it's getting worse. It freezes, it crashes, it's no longer compatible with major programs in the publishing industry.
AND, you guys never answer any of your users. I'm tired of Firefox freezing up. read your freaking forums. Your not making the internet better, I used to have such faith you.

Thanks Mike!

DONE... so I moved onto Sony, but this Vista just is making my life a living
hell, I just spent a fortune on the laptop, and now I have to buy Adobe 9
when my adobe 7 isn't even 2 yrs old... ugh... its just very frustrating and
nerve racking and is costing more than I make in a week in this business
(real estate processing)... I should sell Microsoft for a living, I'd be a
millionaire!
My husband's Mac has been through hell and back physically, is 5 yrs old and
we've never had to take it in for any upgrades or issues, its SO easy to
use... why can't Microsoft be the same?!?!
Thanks for your input and for being understanding of my frustration, I bet
you see those often! LOL

Calendar entries slow and no longer synchronising with iCloud and devices

I have a MacBook Pro Retina, Maverick IOS 10.9.2 is the master. Why do new calendar entries no longer sync with other devices and why is there a coloured bubble and I have to wait for an entry to be in the the calendar for about 30 seconds time? Before, new items could be put into the calendar very fast. I have this problem since a few days. Everything else (email, contacts etc.) are synchronising well. I habe checked if there is a tick and everthing looks ok to me. Thank you for your help.

I use gmail for my calender so I sync calender to gmail and icloud. Right now, neither are showing up in calender on iphone.
I did have gmail notes syncing as well as Icloud notes, but turned that off last night in case that was causing the confusion. It hasn't resolved the notes problem.
Any ideas? It does seem a bit odd.

Any known problems using IE6 and Adobe Reader 7 with LC:RM?

On an properly configured LC:RM server only allowing certificate (X509) authentication,
Adobe Reader 7 always pops up some Username/Password dialog for authentication.
Reader 8 and 9 work fine with certificates.
Is this an known restriction, that
Reader-7 does not support X509 authentication?

Steve,
thank you again for your helpful answer.
In addition we now found out, that Users having an authenticating Proxy
may even need to upgrade to Adobe Reader 9 to be able to use LC:RM.

Using EXCEPT and INTERSECT (Transact-SQL) with a Twist

I understand how to use EXCEPT and INTERSECT BUT how Do use it with two different servers? I have the production database on server1, the conversion database on server2. The databases are identical EXCEPT there is more (new) data in CONVERSION.
I want one query that properly coded returns the differences between production and conversion. I expect to run EXCEPT first (PRODUCTION on left, CONVERSION on right), then I will run INTERSECT (PRODUCTION on left, CONVERSION on right).
How do I get the full network path: SERVER/DATABASE/TABLE?
USE SERVERNAME1.PRODUCTION;
SELECT person_id
,person_name
FROM person_detail AS x
USE SERVERNAME2.CONVERSION;
SELECT person_id
,person_name
FROM person AS y
GO
SELECT *
FROM x
EXCEPT
SELECT *
FROM y;

Hi,
You can use
OPENROWSET to get the data from the remote server and then you can use simple EXCEPT and INTERSECT as you already know
Something like:
SELECT ProductID FROM Production.Product
INTERSECT
SELECT ProductID
FROM OPENROWSET(
'SQLNCLI',
'Use your connection string here to the remote server',
'SELECT ProductID FROM Production.WorkOrder ;'

Exporting using Compressor failed, and other awekward issues with FCP

Hi FCP gurus! I need your help!
Everytime I try to export using compressor, my submission fails.
I even try a sequence a exported as m2v on Monday, but today is not working.
Compressor will some times say "Unable to view preview, FCP is busy". When I press submit, it goes to Batch Processor but it either will immediately show FAILED or it will just not do any processing. When I quit and restart, then the submission appears as failed.
Also when exporting, FCP comes back with a pop message saying that 4 files went offline. When I try to reconnect them it says: "There are not clips selected that have files associated with them". So, why is FCP constantly not able to fine this files, if they are not been used?
I need to export a file for my soundtrack guy, and he needs MOV, preferable DV-PAL or Motion-JPEG or similar frame-based codecs. What are my options?
In any case, what the problem here is that I CANNOT export anything. What shall I do? I already restarted the computer twice, nothing.
I realized that I have files using in this project, saved in two different external harddrives, do you think this has anything to do with the issue?
I am using FCP 5.1.4
Thanks so much in advance!

First off, fwiw, I never "send to compressor." I export a self-contained QT movie, not a conversion. Then I run that through compressor with the appropriate settings. I like the self contained file, it becomes a master from which I can make all sorts of variations. The only difference, in theory between self contained and reference, is that if for any reason you lose the render files the reference movie will not work.
Q1 No.
Q2 see above
Q3 There is no such thing as uncompressed. It's just a different codec rather than a perfect copy of your timeline.
Q4 lots of reasons for making a conversion, but none of them are valid for making DVD's
Q5 Nothing wrong with letting DVDSP make the encoding-- just be sure to get into the preferences for DVDSP and set the destinations to a folder for the project, so you don't overwrite any other projects. Depending on how long the project is, you can let it encode in the bg while you set up your project, build the buttons etc. It's all the same encoding engine, whether is is done in compressor or dvdsp. I find it much faster to use compressor then to take to dvdsp becaue you can use quickcluster.
Now a couple of questions for you: what sort of footage are you using and what are your fcp sequence settings?

TS4062 When I try to sync my phone using WiFi, I get a message that "Sync will resume when "****PC" (a computer I used previously and no longer have) is available." I cannot get past this. It says my last sync was months ago, despite the fact that I hav

When I try to sync my phone using WiFi, it will not sync and the following message is displayed: "Sync will resume when "*****" (my old computer I no longer have) is available." I have synced several times on my new computer using the USB cable, but the message also gives the date of the last sync months ago, when I had the old computer. Any ideas?

I know you can't help with my Yahoo problem, however, apparently at some time in the past I have went to the Sync and tried to figure it out on both my laptop and my desktop, because I have the long snyc key information. However, when I go to try to sync both computers I never get the box to enter that key on either one. That is my problem. So should I try and get a new sync key and see if that works.

Websphere 6.1 64-Bit (Windows) and native libraries shipped with CF8

After more deep tests, i found the following issues:
- Reporting does not work, because ctr files are crypted (why
?) and can't be decrypted (failed to load native library
nvr_win.dll)
It is possible to provide an 64-Bit version of nvr_win.dll ?
Or, simply, how to decrypt ctr files ?
- CFIMAGE runs slow, because JAI uses Sun's Advanced Imaging
API. This API uses native DLL's and there is no 64-Bit Windows
version available. This API may run without the native DLL's, but
it's really slow (An "ThreadMonitor W WSVR0605W:.." may be
happend).
The Server monitor don't fully work (this may be not an
64-Bit issue):

Error/fault when using reader and digitial signatures combined with dropdown list

I'm working on a time card form for my company and they want me to have the form calculate the dates for the two week pay period when the ending day of the pay period is selected, that part I have down through code. The problem I am running into though is that when the user is using Adobe reader to digitally sign and send the file to their supervisor the file is changing the selection date field back to the first selection in the drop down list after the first digital signature is applied and the file saved. This error does not occur when the user is utilizing Adobe Pro though. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm wondering if it is something to do with the dropdown list settings or some kind of locking feature not working properly with the reader version. I am editing/creating the form through LiveCycle Designer ES4.

Hi,
The drop down list box, by default will have a blank value. If you can declare that as obligatory then the report will force the user to enter the value in it.
Regards,
Ravi

Why can't I use 'Control and Arrow' to zoom with Leopard?

Hi guys,
I've lost the ability to quick track zoom since installing Leopard. When I press Control and one of the four vertical or horizontal arrows, the Spaces icon shows and shoves my Logic out of the way.
I hope that there's some way to disable this function so it will enable me to use my beloved Zoom again.

Dear apple community, now I have some problem with iPad(The New iPad 4G). 1st, start from I got it, it really difficult charge. 2nd, very and very hot with 3G or Internet using. And more, some problem with wifi.

From Me, THE MAHACHAK to Apple Company
I think, the apple company are producing and sell only their own country or their ownself, not over the world. And in the other hand, I want to ask Apple Company about their market policy as marketing strategy or size of marketing. How about it? How did you think? Only your own or for world. I like one word as MARKETING IS WATER. Where can't water go? Such as my small country have a lot of people are using apple products a lot as iPhone, iPad, iPod and apple laptop. Cambodia is my small country with much rich families. They can use a good product or high class product, high tenology. Most of products is Apple. But they always have many bad comments and bad problem with Apple products. WHY? The problems such as Lock code, cann't conected with other, hard to find or buy, no Safety, no warranty world wide, wifi, charger, hot during 3G conected, ...etc. hope, these my own idea is looked for all the Apple customers around the world. Please, text me back. Waiting back.
Thanks and Regard
