Why does FCP not use the quad Processors for rendering

Hi. I notice the other day when I renderd out a rather long project that FCP does not use all available processors. I notice on some effects that it uses the graphics card and non of the processors. It there a reason for this and is there a way to make better use of the quad core in rendering both audio and video files.
Thanks

Good question. I've been asking around off forum looking for an answer too. Motion is a big one for me. I'd love to have it render out with all 4. But then again, it's not meant to be a render engine. Both FCP and Motion are now becoming more GPU intensive.
Now... COMPRESSOR uses all 4 at the same time.

  • Why does it not use the index?

    L.S.,
    We are using a table called IT_RFC_REGISTRATION. It is a relatively big table for our application.
    Its primary key is RFCNR, each new RFCNR getting the next value.
    Now for my intranet report I am interested in the last 40 records. But when I execute:
    SELECT *
    FROM IT_RFC_REGISTRATION
    ORDER BY RFCNR DESC
    the query takes ages to execute.
    When I do this:
    SELECT RFCNR
    FROM IT_RFC_REGISTRATION
    ORDER BY RFCNR DESC
    the result comes instantaneous because this query uses the index on RFCNR.
    Why does the former query not use the index to execute? It should be much faster to fetch ROWIDs from the index end to start and use those to get the records, than to load all the records and then sort them.
    Is there a trick with which I can use a join of the latter query and the former query to speed up the result?
    Greetings,
    Philbert de Zwart,
    Utrecht, The Netherlands.

    The difference you see in query run time is based on the amount data being sorted, then returned. In the first query, a full table scan is faster since if the index was used, Oracle would have to do a lookup in the index, get the rowid's and go look up the data in the table (TWO disk i/o's). It's faster to just scan the entire table.
    Indexes will generally not be used unless you have a where clause. If you only need a few fields from the table, you could include them all in an index. For instance, if you only need RFCNR & DESC create a concatenated index on those two columns and then only a scan of the index is required (very fast).

  • Why does iPhoto not recognize the .jpg pics from a Kodak C875 now? I can stick my memory card in the iMac and import them that way, but iPhoto will not import the pics from the camera.

    Why does iPhoto not recognize the .jpg pics from a Kodak C875 now? I can stick my memory card in the iMac and import them that way, but iPhoto will not import the pics from the camera.

    There have been many issues reported with Kodak cameras - serach the forums for them
    Actually the best practise is to use a card reader to import your photos, verify that they are imported ocrrectly and wait at least one backup cycle and then use the camera's format command to reformat the card and erase it - this assures no lost photos and always having the card properly formatted

  • Why does is not show the radio buttons

    I want to display the buttons in a row then radio button in a row under the button and then log scroll pane under the radio buttons. This is my code:
            //Add the buttons and the log to this panel.
            add(buttonPanel, BorderLayout.PAGE_START);
            add(radioPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
            add(logScrollPane, BorderLayout.CENTER);When i run it it display the buttons and the logsrollpane. Why does it not display the radio buttons?

    Thanks guys.
    This is my problem. We have a big system that produce lots of log files and the software testers have to manually have to go through the logs file and look for a certain XML tags in the log file.
    What I want to do is help the software testers my developing a small tool that will allow them to open a log file and then click on a radio button corresponding to a xml tags that they are looking for and automatically highlight the tags in the file in yellow color .
    I am not sure how feasible this is and I am stuck.
    This is what I have done so far.
    Can you please guys help me go forward.

  • HT204406 I have subscribed to match on iTunes and organized my music on my Mac Book.  Why does it not appear the same way on my iPad

    I would like my music to appear organized in the same way on my iPad as I have done it on my Mac Book.  (and on my iPhone as well)  Since it is in the cloud, why does it not appear the same way in all devices?

    The purpose of iTunes match is to make your music library available to all of your devices anywhere. It will sync Playlists, but no other type of organization you may have made.
    If you're having trouble, be sure you are logged into the same Apple ID on all devices but be sure to read this article and pay special attention to associating your devices with an Apple ID. There are important restrictions you should know about.

    Not a lot of details here, but my guess is this isn't working for you because you are wiring in the task to the Active Channels Property and not the actual Channel Name. I have attatched a screenshot of what I believe you are trying to do. The Task has 2 channels in it, so I need to index off one of the channels and wire it into the active channels input of the Channel Property node. Then I can read information about that channel

  • Why does apple not remove the malware Genieo

    Why does apple not remove the malware Genieo - it takes over the Safari browser even with extensions turned off - firefox works fine but the malware is still alive and kicking on my mac.  Should I just uninstall safari and hope the malware is not doing more damage in the background?

    Hi Sickof --
    Apple has never had anything to do with Genio.  It is sneakily installed with other apps you think would be helpful. It is very sickening, IMHO.

    Why does Adobe Reader use the scroll wheel to zoom in/out rather than actually, um, scroll? I can't find anywhere to change this function in Preferences, either.

    I had the same problem on my Windows 8 touch screen laptop.  It was driving me crazy! Every time I tried to scroll a page down, the program would zoom the page!  Made reading an ebook difficult.
    I finally found the solution:
    Under Edit select Preferences - General

  • Is there any way to not use the plugin container for firefox?

    Is there any way to not use the plugin container for firefox? Ever since I updated, my firefox browser has been crashing almost every day and it always says that the plugin container crashed, but the rest of firefox freezes up as well, so I am forced to end the process itself.

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Plugin-container_and_out-of-process_plugins
    You can set the prefs dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.* to false on the about:config page to disable the plugin-container process.
