What's the best way to share footage from FCPX with an Editor still on FCP7?

I have a lot of footage that I've been organizing & logging in FCPX. But soon I'm handing the footage off to an editor that works mainly in FCP7.
Yes, I'm aware of the plugins 7toX and Xto7 that we should have, respectively, to share XML files. That way I can send them xmls for a rough cut.
But first, I want to share the raw footage with them in a way that'll ensure that the plug-ins work, etc.
Any thoughts/recommendations? Greatly appreciated.

I'm sure you know that the same plug-ins that work on FCP7 won't work in X and vice versa. So' Im not sure what you're trying to achieve by first sharing the raw footage.
Depending on the codec, the raw footage may or may not work in both. Or to ut it another way, X may be able to work natively with clips that require transcoding to Pro Res in 7.
At the end of the day, unless you are OK collaborating with flattened files, I imagine the third party XML solutions will be your friend.

    What are the best ways to share photos from iPhoto?

    If you use Adobe Photoshop, or even Adobe Photoshop Elements, stay as far away from iPhoto as possible.
    iPhoto does not play nice with Adobe software or with software from any other third party developer.
    iPhoto will hide your image files in a library paradigm where you have no access to them other than through iPhoto.

    I've always been partial to Numark and Audio-Technica. Have several DJ friends and a client who runs a DJ business, and they use Audio-Technica stuff almost exclusively.
    You may be surprised at how easy it is...
    With the exception of cameras (webcams especially) Macs are pretty much "Plug &Play" with anything USB, and even though I've never used one, reviews say you just plug the turntable in and it reads as a drive.

  • What is the best way to remove footage from the middle of a clip?

    What is the best way to remove unwanted footage from the middle of a clip? I have a clip that I've trimmed from the start and finsih, but I need to remove "boring" footage from inbetween.

    Thank you for your replies. I tried the blade tool followed by select and delete but it did not seem very precise. I had better success with this aproach at the ends rather than in the middle. I watched a tutorial video on using the precision editor, but the video was small so I had a difficult time following where the person clicked, etc. Any info on using the precision editor would be greatly appreciated. I need to make precise cuts to avoid creating unatural motion for the subject. So far, close but no cigar.

  • What is the best way to share a iTunes library between 5 users on the same computer?

    What is the best way to share a iTunes library between 5 users on the same computer?
    Currently I have a common itunes library in a shared folder that each user is linked to.  The problem is that when one user adds music to the shared file, it does not automaticaly appear to other users when they open their iTunes.  They have to go to the shared library and select the new music in order to make it visable in their iTunes.
    Would iTunes file shareing fix this problem?
    Thanks

    Rick, are you saying that if you try to share a folder outside of home and use sharepoints, then the other mac wont prompt you to log in? Have you tried that? It is hard to believe that is the case
    I am sort of saying that. Have you tried it? I know it's hard to believe, but you really need to help us out by trying some steps that you don't believe.
    We can't see what your exact situation is. We sort of know what's worked for us out here. Just trying to help you get this going in less than 24 hours!
    Sharepoints manages the samba configuration file. It's free software that puts a pretty face on an otherwise cumbersome config file.
    Give it a shot.
    windows will not prompt for passwords, I have tried this with multiple computer at home for both vista and xp
    As I stated. You will not get prompted on windows, if you have set up sharing in an insecure fashion. You are not using a secured sharing situation.
    No argument with your statement.

  • What is the best way to share the High Res images ...

    What is the best way to share the High Res images on my Nokia Lumia 1020?  My Android friends really want to see the original ~12MB images taken with Nokia Pro Camera?
    -Paul
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    if you have the att device, then use your att locker.
    ANYONE can sign up for the att locker here:
    https://locker.att.net/app/#welcome
    even if you do not have ATT service, you should sign up NOW.
    There is an application that is pre-installed to allow for the 1020 to upload the full resolution files to the AT&T locker.
    AND, because they are launching the 1020, they are giving a free upgrade to the account to the 50GB box instead of the 5GB.
    they are doing this for a limited time only, I have created a couple of accounts.
    after you create your account, it will have to be verified. after you check your email and verify the box, log back in and you will see it is only a 5gb account.
    click on "my Account/upgrade" and choose the 50GB and you should see it say FREE under the cost.
    then you can upload the full res pictures and share them that way.
    otherwise, if you are within reach, try Bluetooth transfer.

  • What's the best way to share photos?

    Now that MobileMe Gallery is gone, what's the best way to share photos over the internet?
    Is there some simple method where I can upload an entire album from iPhoto and then send a link to others so they can view them?
    I've tried both Flickr and Shutterfly and did not like either.

    Why can't iPhoto just pull the images from a media browser or something over the network?
    I don't know. Part of the issue has to be that iPhoto is not a HD browser. Another part is what you mean by " ... just pull the images".
    Any tips on creating a locally hosted web gallery?
    My greatest single tip of all time: try it! The tools available to use for just a few hundred dollars are astoundingly powerful.
    Or... does anyone have any Automator magic they'd like to share?
    No need. Web galleries are built into Aperture 3. Put the images you want to be in the gallery in one Album (Smart or otherwise). Select all the images. Click "New→Web Page". Select a theme. Change some of the text. Make some other changes. Click "Export Web Pages ... ". Make some more decisions. Give the folder a name. Save it somewhere with access to those whom you wish to see it. Select "Tell me when done". Check your email (have a coffee). Click "Show in Finder". Open the folder. Double-click the file "index.html". Brilliant! Enjoy.
    The trick to sharing this is to make the folder available. The index file will always open the web site pages in a web browser.

  • What is the best way to share over 1000 pictures on Apple TV?

    What is the best way to share over 1000 pictures on Apple TV?

    Creating Shared Photo Streams:
    Shared Photo Streams are permanent iCloud albums for storing photos and videos that can sync across all your iCloud-enabled devices. This is different from your "My Photo stream" that's basically a running tally only holding photos for about a month or 1,000. Shared streams follow different rules...
    In your photos app in an iPhone or ipad, at the bottom you'll see a "shared" icon.  Choose it and then create a new shared stream, you don't have to actually share it with anyone when it prompts you for a contact just click "Create".  Then choose the photos you want in there.  If your Apple TV is linked to your iCloud account you will be able to see those shared streams.
    See here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5902.
    Apple states:
    How many photos and videos can be stored in a shared stream?
    A shared stream can hold a maximum of 5000 photos and videos combined. When you reach your limit, you must delete some photos or videos before adding new ones.
    How long are iCloud Photo Sharing photos and videos stored in iCloud?
    The photos and videos you share (and the comments or Likes associated with those photos) remain in iCloud until you or the contributor delete them manually, or until you delete the shared stream completely.

  • [Solved] What is the best way to share pacman cache ?

    I'm wondering what is the best way to share the pacman cache .
    I went with the obvious choice 'sshfs' . But the cache on the server is owned by root so I can't use it dynamically unless I enable root logins , right ?
    Is it safe to enable root logins and mount with the root user ?
    What is the best and safest way to share pacman cache dynamically ?
    Last edited by Nezmer (2008-12-07 01:13:20)

    Interesting. I use sshfs and yes use root login to do business. But I see it this way you want more security created a stronger password. You want more security than that disable passwords and use keys. But once you start NFS you are surely introducing some security issue just as if you enable root ssh login, so why is NFS better?
    Just asking out of interest, I claim to know nothing about security.
