Where can I buy? Will it work with Final Cut Express?

Is it possible to purchase just Motion? And I read everywhere that motion works with final cut pro, will it work with express also?
Thanks

Soundtrack will not work with Final Cut Express 4.0.1

Just spoke to the tech guy, he was explicit in saying that Apple has discontinued Soundtrack for FCE. It will never be added, final, that's it. Options given 1) Buy another software that works or 2) Use Garageband. No point in complaining any more as they will just log your complaint and that's it. This will never been fixed by them was what he said.

Your comments are perfectly fine but Apple should never have called FCE 4.0 an upgrade as it clearly stats on the box "Upgrade Requires any previous version". I am sorry but Apple is not above laws for consumers in other countries. This upgrade is linked to previous FCE applications and therefore should have included all previous components purchased whether they included an upgrade or not. I do not have the extra money to be buying more software that is why I bought the upgrade and not FCS. Soundtrack was bundled with FCE 3.5 on the same disk. Live Type was also bundled in that package as well. They do have the right to alter their products, but they don't have the right to promote the upgrade to users with older versions without explaining clearly in their advertising of the product that a vital part is no longer available. Might seem like a small issue to you, but Apple software costs a lot more here than it does where you live.

Does the DCR-SR62 30GB Sony Handycam work with Final Cut Express hd 3.5?

Hi,
I am a new mac user and I want to get a good camera that will work with Final Cut Express hd, I am currently looking at the DCR-SR62 30GB and the HDR-UX1 dvd both by sony and I would like to know if these to cameras or one of them will work with Final Cut Express Hd. Thanks.

Niether one of these cams are the best choice for FCE. FC can not directly work with either DVD or HD (as in Hard drive) camcorders. You will have to convert and/or rip the output of either camera, giving you an extra work step and perhaps diminishing the quality of your footage
FCE is designed to work with DV/HDV material ... from a tape, throught a Firewire connection
There is software like MPEG Streamclip which will allow you to convert those cam's output to work with FC but if you haven't bought them yet, I would hold off and look at a good quality tape based cam

Any software similar to Color, works with Final Cut Express?

Hi,
I would like to do a bit more on the color of the footage. Are there any software/plugin that is similar to Color in Final Cut Studio, which works with Final Cut Express?
Thanks in advance!

you have read pg 693 ff of the manual.. ?
what do you want to accomplish, what's not possible with FCE out-of-the-box.. ?

Capture devices that work with Final Cut Express

Would any one out there be able to recomend a reasonably priced video capture device that works with FCE other than a video camera? I want to input video and audio from VHS and DVD. I also want to input Audio from cassette and CD.
imac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

I am in a similar situation. All I can say is that the ADS Pyro AV Link works well with iMovie but not with Final Cut Express or Pro so I returned it.
I am waiting for a DataVideo DAC 100, Their web site gives specific instructions as how to use the DAC with FCP so I am hopefull that it will work with FCE.

The Canopus ADVC 110 has also been recommended on this forum.

Can somebody tell me if this video camera works with Final Cut Express HD?

Hi,
I'm juggling with the idea of changing my old video camera from 1999 Sony TRV-93.
I'm looking in to the Panasonic HDC-SD5 or Sony HDR-HC7.
My main concern it that I will be using Final Cut Express or iMovie for the editing of my home movies.
But neither of the companies is clear if their product will work with a Mac.
I'll be using a MacBook Pro to run Final Cut Express HD.
So if someone that uses one of this video cameras tell me that they work with Macs and Leopard, It will be much easier to take my decision.
Thank you for reading and your anwsers.
Mario

Probably ANY camera that uses MiniDV TAPE and has a FireWire ( aka iLink) output can use iMovie and FCE .
DVD, Hard Disk and Flash Memory cameras are generally unsuitable.
However, iMovie 07 (aka 08) and FCE 4 can handle AVCHD cameras.
Ian.
SORRY ! Just realised you wanted someone who has one of those cameras. I don't think many people will because flash memory is not really suitable at present because of the incredibly high price of the SD cards. eg.probably £60 for an hour of video as compared with £2 for a tape.

Working with Final Cut Express

I'm wondering if users of final cut express will have the ability to check out/check in projects, or if that feature will only apply to Final Cut Studio. I want the ability to manage content that can be edited by relatively unskilled editors, using Final Cut Express. Anyone out there know the answer?

The answer is Yes. You pretty much get most of the functionality. Even the edit-in-place. I'm a technology employee, but I have Express on my laptop for testing. Anything I've configured for Pro users also works on my Express. Some of the XML features may not.

Do Applescript / Automator work with Final Cut Express?

Hey list,
I'm a nubie in all things Applescript / Automator related. Does Final Cut Express support commands from these? For example, can I tell it to go pick up a batch of photos I created, put them in a seqeunce, and export them as an MOV? If so, it would make my life a lot easier

Hi(Bonjour)!
If you want to drive an appication by applescript or automator, this application has to be "driveable" by script.
If you open Applescript editor, select dictionnary and look if the application appears. If not, it cannot be driven by scripts.
FCE is not scriptable. You can automate the lauching of the app itself (from finder scripts) but no more.
But with select all command, you can drag all your stills (they will be inserted in the same order as they appear in column list view) in timeline.
Also, use the "storyboard tips" by placing them in a diffrent order in icon view (in perfect row and column), select all and drag in timeline. The order will be respected from upper left-corner to lower-right.

Does the Sony DCR-HC32 camcorder work with Final Cut Express 3.5?

I was just wondering if the Sony DCR-HC32 camera model works for the Macbook or Final Cut Express 3.5. I am really interested in getting the Macbook for video editing. Thanks
Compaq Presario 700 Windows XP Pro

Yes.
Sony calls it iLink, Apple calls it firewire and the techos call it IEEE 1394.
All are one and the same.
You will require a 4-6 pin iLink cable that can be obtained from just about any computer or electrical store. Get a good quality sheilded cable no longer than 2 metres or shorter if you setup allows.

Where can I find the 1080i25 codec for Final Cut Express?

I have found that the Sony HDR-HC3E is use the 1080i25 Codec,
Final Cut Express only provide 1080i50 and 1080i60,
So the quality of source after capture is very poor!
Is that FCE has 1080i25 codec?
Where can I find?

There's no such thing as 1080i25. The i is for interlaced and has either 50 fields or 60 fields (actually 59.97, but that's another story). There is 1080p25, but I don't believe that camera can shoot that.
Where are you looking at the playback of the captured material? QuickTime player set to high quality or somewhere else?

How do i get a copy of IDVD and will it work with final cut pro x.

I have a new powerbook. I've purchased final cut pro x because express is no longer available. My Mac didn't come with iDVD and I can't find a suitable dvd authoring tool. Please... some suggestions for DVD authoring or how to get a copy of iDVD and will it even work with FCPx.

Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge. (There are no realistic substitutes for iDVD.)
408-996-1010
800-692-7753
If you are still within your 15 day return period, nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD. That usually does the trick. You MUST speak to a senior advisor to get a free copy. The first tier people cannot do it.
If that doesn't work you can purchase iLife 11 (includes iDVD) on disk.
IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

Will this camcorder work with Final cut express

I received a Samsung HMX-W300 as a gift and was wondering if it's Mac compatible and would be able to transfer the files to Final cut or even imovie. Does anyone also know if the format on this is AVCHD?

AVCHD can shoot either Progressive or Interlaced footage.
Progressive means one full frame at a time is captured, 25 for PAL or 30 for NTSC.
Interlaced means two fields to make one frame, 50 fields for PAL or 60 for NTSC.
Lines 1,3,5,7,9 etc. scan first then 2,4,6,8,10 etc. hence interlaced.
You can search the Web for more details, the qbove is an overview.

Does Compressor 4 work with final cut express 3.5?

I have never used Compressor before.
I am currently using Final Cut 3.5 and too deep into various projects to even THINK about moving to FInal Cut X at this point and sacrificing my productivity while I learn it.
But I think I need to learn Compressor for a particular job or two and was wondering if the latest version works with the older FCE.
Thanks
I am running 10.6.8 on a brand new 27" 3.1 Ghz Intel Core i5 with 4 GB of memory.

Russ H wrote:
WHile I'm not 100% certain (this has come up before and It's not convenient to test), I believe that purchasing Compressor will also allow you add additional codecs to your QT library.
Russ
Yes, Compressor adds several codecs, which can also be used in FCE (decoding and encoding using QuickTime Conversion) and in QuickTime player. Most notably these are MPEG-2 and ProRes. The latter is an editing-friendly Intraframe-Codec useful for preprocessing stuff for importing clips to FCE, particularly if it has a different framerate from the FCE project.
I'm also still using FCE 3.5(*) and the "Export using Compressor" menu option remains grayed out, which is a pity, but the new codecs can still be used. I mostly use it to make stuff for DVDs, using my ancient and cumbersome iDVD.
(*) It really works on Lion, provided you have installed it on a previous Mac OS release and then migrated or upgraded to Lion: the installer is a PowerPC program, but the installed program is Universal and works fine and very stable. If you already have Lion, and no older (Snow) Leopard machine, it's going to be more of a challenge, since the Lion kernel no longer supports PowerPC binaries, so Rosetta won't work.

Does Motion 5 work with Final Cut Express?

I need to know before I make the purchase. Thanks.

Motion 5 does not work with FCP (i.e. does not interact) so I very much doubt it will work with FCE.
Saying that, as I have mentioned in another thread you can still output your movie with transparency and import into FCE above a background etc. There is no send to etc..........

Does the Sony Z1E work with final cut express HD 3.5??

I own a Sony Z1E HDV professional camcorder and am looking to use it with FCE 3.5. However, I have checked the 'qualified devices' list for FCE 3.5 and only the Z1U is displayed as compatible. I have to admit I did not even know the 'Z1U' existed and it may be the only difference between the Z1E and Z1U is firmware. However, I would like to be sure that my Z1E will work fine. Please could someone who has used the Z1E with FCE 3.5 reassure me.
Thanks.
MacBook Pro 1.83GHZ Mac OS X (10.4.5) 1GB RAM

U is United States. E is Europe. That's all. TThe camera works with FCE.

Where can I buy? Will it work with Final Cut Express?
