Video filters like flicker?

Are they gone on Final Cut X?

First thing to do is reset your fcp preferences

  • Video filters screen setup

    Hello All,
    Help please...
    I have tons of filters/plugins. When I open my video filters screen (from the effects window), I always have to arrange my window so that I can see the majority of the filters. Is there a way to have this setup when launching FCE HD so that I don't have to always re arrange my video filters window?
    I have a custom setup that I am using with two monitors. Viewer, Canvas & Browser on one screen and Effects & timeline on my other monitor.

    You can make custom window arrangements of course, but they won't leave contents of windows open as I think you'd like. Might I suggest that it's more efficient to access the filters from the Effects menu rather than from the bins in the Effects tab of the browser.

    I've tried all the options in gmplayer, they all don't work.  I'm assuming the command line carries out the same functions.  I've tried a couple (but not all) and they didn't work either.

  • Video filters not working anymore in FCE 3.5.1

    My video filters (i.e. color correction, levels, RGB balance) don't seem to be working anymore. The only things I've done lately are upgrade to 3.5.1 and also OS 10.4.8. I believe this problem started happening after the 10.4.8 upgrade.
    I've been working with video for some time, but am relatively new to FCE. My workflow was to doubleclick to open the filter, make the adjustments to the filter settings, then drag the filter to the clip on the timeline. This was working just fine but just doesn't work anymore.
    Other things such as transitions work fine. LiveType and Soundtrack also seem fine.
    Anyone else have this problem, and how did they correct it? I have a project due tomorrow afternoon and would like to be able to fix ASAP.
    Thx in advance.

    Tom,
    First:
    I did trash my prefs, first thing. However, I might not have gone deep enough with this. I only trashed User > Library > Preferences > com.apple.FinalCutExpress.plist.
    I produce a 10-minute weekly announcements DVD and as such have very little downtime for my apps. The project I'm working on now is much more important, although only about 6 minutes, but it's crucial and I didn't want to risk downtime if I screwed up by trashing something else and possibly causing me more work. So I've had a feeling maybe more should have been trashed.
    Second:
    To better explain my incorrect workflow, I've created some movies you can find here:
    http://little-works.com/sepia_ex.html
    In this first example, I created an exaggerated color for a sepia tone, something I would never use. If you click the link and go on to the next page, you'll see where I apply that filter to the clip in the timeline (it's actually a still picture, not a video clip), and beside that, you'll see the unchanged result. BTW, I did render that still after I applied the green sepia filter.
    What happened when I first installed FCE was that any and all changes I made in this manner immediately presented themselves (in other words, they "worked"). Now I see no change at all.
    I burned a rough cut of this project yesterday and it looks fine, but I've worked as an art director for too many years and am very picky! I know it's fine for my audience but a) I know it could look better b) I want it to work right.
    I appreciate any and all help on this. I've been a Mac user for over 20 years, but am a newbie to FCE and am learning on the fly. So far my results have been great and very much appreciated by my audience(s), but I want to go much deeper into the program, as I am only touching the tip of the iceberg and don't want to develop bad habits from the get-go!
    Thx --

  • FCP crashes when Video Filters folder is double clicked

    I edit in FCP 5.0.4 with 2 monitors and like to keep the Video Filters folder open as a separate window along with the Effects folder. However, my custom window layout with this setting has disappeared and when I try to open Video Filters, FCP crashes. I've used FCP Rescue to no avail and have re-installed FCP software.

    I am capturing to a Ciprico dual channel U320 array attached to a ATTO UL4D SCSI controller. I don't use the system for these data intensive captures all that often and sometimes I have no problem at all and other times I do. I noticed that the raw movies would play in the quicktime player ok without stalling or dropping frames so the issue seems to be with final cut. The last time I had this problem was with playing back 720p DVCProHD files and it would only play for a few minutes and then give a error message about dropping frames and suggesting lowering the number of audio tracks and changing the RT settings. I am thinking there must be a software conflict. We just installed FCP 6 and this was the first capture I did with it and had the same old problem right off the bat.

  • Sound through hdmi to my tv works but not when watching video online like 4OD

    the sound through hdmi to my tv works with music and videos I have downloaded, but not when watching video online like 4OD and youtube.
    How can I get it to work?

    Ok so I happened to figure it out while on the phone to apple support. Even though the guy was very nice, I think I knew more than him! He was explaining very basic resolution principles I played about. I had the second option in displays resolution. All I did was unplug the HDMI cable, click on 'best for display' then plugged the HDMI in and my resolution on the normal monitor changed to the normal blue, then went black momentarily and then changed to a strange resolution but another window appeared that said SONY BRAVIA HDMI at the top! Hey presto! Don't know why it didn't do it yesterday - I probably left the HDMI cable in or something! Oh well. Problem solved!

  • I currently have a mbp with two internal hard drives ( took super drive out) which for a video editor like myself is a dream I can edit video anywhere, my question can I order a new mbp with 2 internal flash drives?

    I currently have a mbp 2.3 gighuz intel core 7 16 gig of ram with two internal hard drives ( took super drive out) which for a video editor like myself is a dream I can edit video anywhere, my question can I order a new mbp with 2 internal flash drives?

    I wouldn't think so because the newer ones with Retina displays don't have an internal SuperDrive that can be replaced. Therefore the newer logic boards wouldn't have the two SATA/SATA Express connections on the logic board.
    At least that was the case as of 2012. I've seen newer ones and they also don't have a SuperDrive.

  • I'm new to Mac and I have a Mac Mini. Could you please tell me how I could paste an URL to a video downloader like "Coolmuster Video Downloader for Mac"? I can copy the url but I could not paste it on the downloader. I appreciate your help to my problem.

    Is this happing because the external is formatted to PC and not mac?
    Yes that is correct.
    Will I need to get a mac external hard drive if I wish to continue to save my documents like this?
    If you no longer use a PC you could format this drive for the Mac. However be aware that formatting a drive will erase all the data on it. So you would need someplace to copy the data off this drive to while you did the re-format and then you could copy the data back.
    You could get another drive, format it for the Mac and copy the data to it. Then re-format the original drive and use it as a backup drive. Always good to have backups.
    Post back with the drive type and size of the current drive, if you are doing backups now and how and if you still need to access this drive from a PC.

  • Video filters not working when applied to sequence clips

    I have looked through the forums and haven't found the solution to my problem. I am having problems with video filters on clips in the timeline. I have footage that needs color correction. In the viewer I created a 3 way filter for one clip, saved it, and applied to all clips in the browser. They all open corrected in the viewer. (I did this because i was reviewing the clips with my client).
    When I put the clip in the timeline it does not indicate it needs a render, the filter does not appear on the clip, but when I double click and open the sequence clip in the viewer the color correction tab is there. I've removed attributes and tried again several times, both using the menu with the clip selected, and by doulbleclicking the clip into the viewer and apply the filter there. The tab is always there but the filter does not appear on the clip. It only appears when the process is done to clips from the browser inthe viewer. I've checked the RT for unlimted, I've done a render all video, I've checked settings under the render tab and filters is checked. I've gone into another project and have the same problem in a different project with different clips. I had a recent project where I used a blur effect and it worked fine. My video is DV and my sequence settings are DV NTSC.
    I've run out of my ideas and comments from ither threads. What is my next troubleshoot? Should I delete preferecnes? I haven't done that with FCP, can I do it myself or use Rescue? Could that create other problems for me? Any other ideas?
    I work in Afghanistan and have no resources here for any Mac support besides books and forums. 
    Thanks

    Hey Catrina
    Not sure what the issue is with your application of the 3-Way Color Corrector in the Browser. My guess, is that perhaps you only thought you applied the "saved" instance of the 3-way corrector but instead applied a default neutral instance of the corrector.  How did you save the correction you applied to the other instances?  A good method is, having applied and tweaked it as needed to a sample clip instance, you can drag a copy of it out of the clip's Filter tab and drop it directly into your Browser window.  To check, then double click that Browser instance of the corrector to open it in the Viewer window and see if has the corrections settings as expected and no the default ones. If so, go ahead and drag it to another clip instance in the Browser and then drag that clip to your sequence ... has the correction "stuck" bow? But while we figure it out, for now, why not just apply the saved correction directly to the clips in the sequence?  Regarding trashing your preferences ... download Preference Manager from Digital Rebellion.  Very straightforward to use.
    Cheers
    Andy

    When i select the "Full Screen" option in video streams (like youtube, veoh, anything like that) i can do that one(1) time second(2nd) time the screen goes blank and can only exit it with the escape(Esc) button and then i have to restart firefox and again i have my one "Full-screen Ticket"

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • Automating video filters based on audio changes?

    Hello,
    I'm wondering if there is a non-manual way to automate the parameters of video filters based on increases and decreases in audio track
    I'm aware that filter parameters can be modified by hand using keyframes and curves, I'm just wondering if there is someway to have the software make these modifications based on changes in an audio track (or any other parameter).
    Thanks,

  • Making a browser tab of video filters

    I've forgotten how to do this. I want my video filters to be displayed as list in the browser window (in addition to the pull down menu, of course.)
    Thanks!

    Are you saying the EFFECTS tab isn't there? Command-5
    Are you saying you want the VIDEO FILTERs folder to be a TAB? Click and drag it up to the tab area. Or dbl click to open it as a window and drag it to the TAB area of the browser window.
    Good luck,
