Using the Canon FS11 with FCP

Hi everyone
I'm helping someone who is using the FS11 camera (http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/co...&modelid=16183), which records in MPEG2 .mod files.
Not much info online, and it doesn't seem to be compatible with FCP Log and Transfer, and its also USB. (although strangely enough the camera can be purchased through Apple sites in come countries).
We've been using MPEG streamclip to convert the files to Quicktime at the moment. But it's rather labour intensive, and I'm not convinced that MPEG SteamClip is doing the best compression.
Any thoughts on this? Has anyone created a workflow for this camera? Once I figure it out I might post one as it seems quite a few people are using it.
Thanks community!

I had to look up what an XM1 is and found out it is a PAL GL-1. I have the GL-1 (NTSC) and have never had a problem loading it into iMovie.

  • Anyone used/using the Canon XM1 with iMovie?

    Hi again,
    I've been offered a second-hand Canon XM1 at a reasonable price and wondered whether it might be the cure to all my problems with loading video into iMovie as it has a Firewire connection and is on the supported camcorder list with Apple.
    Does anyone have any experience of using this machine with iMovie? I'd really appreciate your comments (good and bad) before I part with more cash for another camcorder.
    Thanks in advance,
    Dom.

  • Is anybody using the Canon 1D mark III with RAW and Aperture?

    Hello,
    Is anybody using the Canon 1D mark III with RAW and Aperture?
    JO

    I'm using a 5D with a G5 and having nothing but problems. I have aperture installed on my Powerbook and don't have any problems. Upload fine and everything. But as soon as i try and upload photos on my G5 it's terrible. They preview fine before import.
    but afterwards they're corrupt.
    any help....

  • Has Anybody Used the Canon HF R10 with FCE 4?

    I just confirmed it is a bug in Visual Studio 2013.  Using Visual Studio 2010 (VS10) I have no problems creating a database.  The workaround in VS 2013 is to create a database in VS10, store it on localhost, import it into your Solution using
    SQL Server Explorer in Visual Studio 2013, then you can create an Entity Data (ADO.NET / EF) that connects to the database.  But even this step is a bit of a problem, in that you must first create an empty Entity Data, then populate it by connecting to
    an existing database, which would be the database you imported from VS10.  If you try and connect the Entity Data directly to the database using the Entity Data Model Wizard, nothing seems to happen.  So first create an Entity Data model (empty),
    then connect it to the database you have created with a New Connection using the built in Visual Studio 2013 SQL Server manager.

  • Using Digital Beta deck with FCP 4

    Can one use a digibeta deck with FCP via a firewire? What should the settings be if I want to keep everything uncompressed? Space is not an issue. I ask since I've only used minidv and DVcam.
    thanks so much!

    You need a capture card (Aurora, AJA, Decklink) and drives capable of uncompressed playback.
    The only card that captures and sends the signal thru a firewire cable is the AJA I/O, but the Aurora and Decklink solutions are cheaper. Aurora being my favorite.

  • How do I use the App store with macbook pro and mac pro

    I currently use the app store with the mac book, but want to buy (share?) apps and music with the mac pro.
    I can't find anything that specifically outlines how this works.
    I use SplashID with the macbook and an iPhone, and want to use it (and sync it) on the mac pro as well.
    If you buy apps for a macbook, can you use them on a second machine, or do you need to buy it a second time?

    Your license from the MAS allows you to download and install the apps on as many Macs as you own or have under your control (institutional or employer supplied Macs.) The Mac should to be running Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard or Mac OS X 10.7.2 Lion. Open the MAS app on the Mac Pro and sign into your account to have access to download all of your previous purchases in the Purchased pane.
    Simple apps can also be dragged & dropped over a network connection from the MacBook to the Mac Pro.

  • I have an apple id but i have not been able to use the same id with i tune and app store..what to do

    i have an apple id but i have not been able to use the same id with i tune and app store..what to do???every time i m trying to login it is telling that this id has not been used with i tune and App Store ....reviewing of my id is one of the option provided to me after this...

    Have you logged in and reviewed your account and entered payment details ? Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method - Apple Suppor…
    then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
    You could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you review your account without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054#24303054
    If not then you will either have to enter card details (you should be able to remove them after entering them), or create a new account (using the instructions on the above link).

  • I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud  how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?

    I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud  how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
    Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
    If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
    Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes?  If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

  • Can two people use the same computer with two different ipods?

    I was just wondering if me and my mother can use the same computer with our ipods?

    Glad you asked. Before you get rid of the old one move its iTunes Library to the new one:

    "Deauthorize" the old computer too. Go to the iTunes Store menu and select "Deauthorize This Computer..."
    I hope you get a Mac this time

  • It´s possible to use the "Remote" app with Itunes and a Nokia E72 with Joikuspot installed only? Or I´ll need to buy a modem Wifi?

    It´s possible to use the "Remote" app with Itunes and a Nokia E72 with Joikuspot installed only? Or I´ll need to buy a modem Wifi?
    I was using "remote" with a D-link modem, that works fine at my iPad. But now I´m using only the cell phone as modem 3G, and don´t want to intall a router to put new cables at my notebook.

    What?
    You want to control iTunes on your computer using the Remote app on your iPad?
    And you want to connect the iPad and computer through your Nokia?
    No, this will not work.
    Just create a network with your notebook.

  • Has anyone figured a way to use the Magic Trackpad with Windows 7 on a partitioned disc using Bootcamp?

    Has anyone figured a way to use the magic trackpad with Windows 7 on a partitioned disc using Bootcamp?

    Yes. After Windows/Bootcamp discovers  your bluetooth device (Magic Trackpad or Mouse, be sure to make it discoverable), right click, with your wired mouse, of course, on the icon and select Properties.
    Then check the mouse drivers box and your device should work. (I located this solution on another thread)
    It works for both the Magic Mouse and Magic Trackpad.
    Must admit, the solution was not intuitive within the Windows environment. But we all must remember. It IS Windows, after all.
    Another thing. Keep in mind that the gestures on these devices that work just dandy in OSX do not carry over into Windows.
    It's Windows.

  • Using the  apple remote  with  ipod  mini

    is it possible to use the apple remote with ipod mini dock
    advent 1318   Windows XP   n/a

    Would the apple remote and universal dock allow remote adjustment of the volume level when using and iPod mini? I know the nano and 5g support this feature but am unsure for the mini as my old 3g ipod only gave 'line out' via the dock.

  • Using the MacBook Pro with external Monitor and Keyboard

    This may be a dumb question, but here it goes anyway:
    Can I use the MacBook Pro with an external monitor and a bluetooth keyboard and mouse without having it opened all of the time ?
    I am planning to buy a MacBook for my wife and most of the time she will be using it at her home office.
    I don't want her to use the computer opened all of the time when she is actually looking at the separate screen and using a separate keyboard. Having the laptop opened will only accumulate dust and reduce the lifetime of the built in screen.
    What I would actually need is a kind of "docking station", but Apple doesn't make that - I know.
    So can the MacBook at least be operated without the internal screen powered on while it is closed?
    Thanks for your help
    Martin

  • I have a 2010 vintage 13-inch MacBook Pro that has a 60 watt power adapter.  I also have an older power adapter that is 65 watts.  Is it okat to use the 65 watt with this MacBook Pro?

    I have a 2010 vintage 13-inch MacBook Pro that has a 60 watt power adapter.  I also have an older power adapter that is 65 watts.  Is it okat to use the 65 watt with this MacBook Pro?

    yes.
    "For instance If you have a MacBook (13-inch Late 2009) that normally uses a 60W adapter, you can also use an 85W adapter with that computer. You would not use a 45W adapter with that computer; it would not provide enough power for that MacBook. Using an adapter of higher wattage than the adapter that came with the computer will not cause the computer to charge more quickly or otherwise operate any differently than using the adapter that came with the computer.
