Why can't I use HD video from my Samsung Galaxy S2 in Final Cut Pro 6?

My Samsung Galaxy S2 shoots gorgeous 1080P HD Video.  It has no trouble importing into iPhoto, but when I want to edit in Final Cut Pro 6, it won't accept the file.  Anyone know how I can fix this?  Thanks.

FCP doesn't edit the format the camera shoots. You need to convert the video files to ProRes...then import into FCP.
If you want an app that edits formats natively, look at Adobe Premiere CS5.5.

    Can't figure out how to upload video files to Final Cut Pro X. What steps do I need to take. This is all new to me. Thanks!

    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
    * On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). <br />

  • Why can´t I use original HPinkcartridges from one HP printer to another HPprinter it says use origin

    why can´t I use original HPinkcartridges from one HP printer to another HP printer, it says use original cartridges -
    but they are original?

    If the printers are identical that should not be a problem. If the printers are not identical then it simply will not work. Each printer uses different cartridges unless it is from the same model group as the other.  
    In analogy that would be like asking why the spark plugs from a Porsche don't work in your PT Cruiser.

    While I don't use a Mac, I belive you connect the device to the computer via USB and then import the file using a file utility similar to what you do when you import digital pictures. I'm guessing that the Mac has something like this?

    Luis,
    Just to clarify one point…in order for Streamclip to convert the MTS I believe a plug-in like the AVCCAM QuickTime importer from Panasonic needs to be installed. (Credit David McClain over at the FCS boards for that info.)

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Open the Mac App Store and go to Purchases. Do you see Final Cut Pro X listed?
    If so, open a Finder window, choose Applications in the sidebar and delete Final Cut Pro X. Then, go to the Mac App Store and download Final Cut Pro X for free.
    If you don't see it in Purchases, see if it's hidden, and if so, unhide it > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928 If it doesn't work, contact with the Mac App Store support > http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact

  • Imac 27" . Canopus advc55 firewire in from SVHS tape. Either crashes Final Cut Pro X or has gaps in transfer when sync lost between camera shots.

    I have been trying for a few days to dump my SVHS camera tapes to Final Cut Pro X. Using the Canopus ADVC55 encoder fed from a Panasonic SVHS video deck into iMac firewire. The picture appears on screen but will not save as an archive atall. Trying to import into an event has a little more success. When it comes across a section of tape between camera shots without sync it either crashes Final Cut or randomly picks up the replay later or trims the shots down by about a minute. Not sure what to do to let to allow it to import a tape complete with blank sections. I have a Panasonic SVHS deck with timebase correction on output, would this help maintain a constant sync signal for the ADVC55 and final cut pro? Very frustrating just trying to dump videos to digital.

    Footnote to this problem. Put a Panasonic WJ-EV5 video mixer inline between deck and Canopus ADVC55 and this maintains the sync for perfect copies. If the red light on the ADVC55 comes on during the import to event sync has been lost and FCPX crashes or aborts the copy in various ways with unpredictable files.
    The import to archive still will not store the data.
    Maybe Final Cut authors can explain why import to event works but import to archive does not.

  • Does Final Cut Pro X support all video files as did its prior version Final Cut Pro Studio?

    Hi,
    Use to have a Mac Pro and had Fina Cut Pro Studio. Now I have just got a new Macbook Pro (Lion), and have just purchased the new Final Cut Pro X from the App store. I am having problems importing 3gps files into FCP X. I never had a problem with the $1000 version of studio. Does the new FCP X have limitations on what video files are compatible with it? do I need to purchase additional plug-ins etc???
    Ta
    Zeb

    Really depends on the specific file type you want to work with. FCP X does not support every single flavor of video FCP 7 did, so it's not a huge surprise if the file you're using is not supported. That said, there's plenty of free third party tools you could use to convert it to a regular QuickTime ProRes file that FCP X would accept. For example- http://www.squared5.com/ would most likely be able to load it. Try and let us know. And if that doesn't work please provide more details about the 3gps file you're using.

  • When I use Greek accenting and polytonic characters in a title, Final Cut Pro X quits unexpectedly. What should I do?

    When I try to write a title in Greek using the Greek alphabet, Final Cut Pro X quits unexpectedly, the moment I press the button for the Greek accenting (" ' "). This happens only when I press the button. If for example, I write the title in TextEdit and then copy paste it in FCPX then the title is pasted correctly and the program does not quit.
    An example of title: "Εγώ", so as soon as I press the accenting and then "ω", then everything freezes and FCPX quits.
    It must be a bug, but it really causes a problem. Temporarlily, I always c/p to textEdit and then paste it to FCPX. But I am also using Polytonic Greek system (fonts), so it is a bugger to always c/p. Is there a solution to this?
    Thank you.

    This seems to be a bug, as there was another thread that reported this exact same problem but using Finnish (I believe).
    Do you have Motion? You can try doing your titles there and then export/import into FCPX.
