Why has my Sony XR520 stopped connecting to Final Cut Express

The Sony XR520 used in the office mounts on the Mac Pro with FCX, but the software fails to see it. the upshot is I can't log and transfer from the camera

If you have shot p (prgressive footage) it won't see it. eg. 1920;1440 x 1080p
Interlaced will work directly in FCE.

    Why has my iPod Touch stopped connecting to my WiFi?
    It's been fine for the past 2 years but today, it's stopped. It was working this morning...
    According to settings it has connected but I cannot access anything online and the internet icon is missing.
    WiFi is working on my phone & laptop so it doesn't appear to be a problem with the router. Also I've just synced my iPod with iTunes, reset and restarted - still no luck.
    Any suggstions?
    Thanks

    Did you already try to reset the network settings in Settings/General/Reset?

    You can try resetting your iPad and iPhone by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • Video cameras no longer connecting to Final Cut Express

    I have two video cameras (Sony TRV-25 and Sony HDV-A1U) which are no longer connecting to Final Cut Express through the firewire (4-pin to 800). I get the "unable to initialize" message. What's weird is that they were working fine just last month.
    I'm on a relative new iMac, running 10.6, FCE 4.
    I've double and triple-checked the settings on the cameras (i.e., HDV and iLink output settings), and I've selected the appropriate settings in Easy Setup in FCE (1060i60 for the HDV, NTSC-DV for the TRV).
    I also reset video devices under the View menu.
    Just for kicks, I tried connecting the TRV-25 to my old Mac. I had no problems at all. [The old Mac won't work with the HDV camera, so I didn't bother trying that.]
    There are no other firewire devices connected to the Mac. There is an external drive that I use for capturing the video files that is attached through one of the USB ports.
    I went and bought another firewire cable just to make sure, but got the same results.
    For what it's worth, I also could not get the cameras to be recognized in iMovie.
    Is there anything else I should try?
    Thanks!

    When I looked in System Profiler and click on the firewire line, it just said something about maximum speed 800 MB per second or whatever. Should it actually have the camera listed there? Is that the right way to check?
    The firewire is 4-pin (iLink) to 800, and there are no other devices connected.

  • Sony DVD 403 users with Final Cut Express

    Hi.
    Anybody's input on getting Sony's Mini DVD-RW. into Final Cut Express that uses a Sony DCR-DVD 403 camcorder.
    Walter

    Walter
    DVD and FCE are not directly compatible. Probably not what you wanted to hear.
    Mini DV (tape base) cameras are compatible.
    You will have to either use analogue outputs from your camera hooked up to a DV Converter or use a software based converter to de-mux the files.
    You will find lots of info on this forum, Try a search for de-mux.

  • Sony DCR SR42 files and Final Cut Express

    Hi - I am the owner of a new MacBook which I bought specifically to edit movies from my Sony hard disk Camcorder. I have since found that this model is not on the list of supported camcorders for iMovie and in fact iMovie does not recognise the mpeg files saved by the camcorder.
    Can anyone tell me whether Final Cut Express would work with this camera? If not I will probably have to exchange my mac for a PC laptop.

    Hi there,
    I'm having the same problem with the same camera. I'm replacing it with a mini DV (picture quality is much better and so is compatibility with iMovie '06 and FCE).
    But I've still got a ton of footage from the Sony that I need to convert.
    When you converted your footage, what file format did you use? Were you happy with the new quality? And was the resulting footage easy to work with? Anything else you can share?
    Thanks for your help.

  • How can I export a video so that the exported version has the same quality it did in Final Cut Express?

    Go to File->Export->QuickTime Movie (do NOT use QuickTime Conversion).  Click the Self-Contained box.  The resulting file will be a duplicated of your Sequence in FCE.

  • Why has my new ipad stopped saving photos from Facebook?  Problem could have started when I downloaded the new OS.

    Why has my new IPad stopped saving pictures from Facebook.  Worked originally and problem may have started when I downloaded OS 6.

    You are correct that the behavior started when you installed iOS 6 - but as Chetan6518 explained - you now have to configure it in the settings.
    Along with the suggestion above, there is also a Photos setting in Privacy and that gives access to approved apps for photos as well.
    Last of all, make sure that you haven't set a photos restriction in Settings>General>Restrictions>Privacy>Photos

  • HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!! Sony HDR  SR-11 and connecting it to final cut express

    I just got this new Sony HDR SR-11. I recorded a short clip and wanted to put it in my computer. I have Final Cut Express 4.0. So when I got the camera hooked up and went into the cameras files, not with final cut yet, tried to look for the files. Confused I went to a sony support site and it told me how to get to them , for a mac. I found the video file and copied it to my desktop. It was in that wierd black and grey shinney box format and said excu on the top , i think. I clicked it...Nothing. I opend it with quick time....Nothing. So I called up sony and after a long discussion the operator said that I needed to buy the MPEG-2 codec for quick time. which I did and...Nothing. So I called up again this new guy says i need Final Cut Pro to read HD files. Which Im pretty sure I dont. So I open final cut, i go to capture and...Nothing. PLEASE HELP ME. IM SOME WHAT NEW TO MACS AND I HOPE SO ONE OUT THERE CAN HELP ME
    THANK YOU IN ADVANCE

    I have been trying for three days to the same thing.
    I did get the video content off my camera via imovie 08 but the quality is very poor.
    Haven't worked out how to improve the quality yet, I also tried importing the video
    via ADVC 110 analog conversion device but that doesn't improve the quality.
    I do have Final Cut Pro & MPEG-2 Codec and have been searching for the video in the camera's
    hard drive but can not find it.
    Can you tell me where Sony told you to find the video files so that I can try & import it to Final Cut Pro.
    Thanks

    I am using final cut express 4. It seems that any clip over a certain length, say 5 min, does not fully transfer! All shorter clips are perfectly fine. Is there some reason why longer clips are not fully transferred? (a half blue circle shows up on the transfer list, indicating that the clip was not fully transferred. When I check in the capture scratch folder, sure enough the whole clip is not there!
    Is there some glitch in final cut express that only allows short clips to be transferred in full?

    Thanks for the reply. I'll try to answer all the questions (I am a relative novice). Your help is appreciated.
    By the way, the other reply I received suggested the following:
    In Final Cut Express>System Settings>Scratch Discs make sure the Limit Capture/Export File Segement Size To: is not checked.
    I did this and it was already unchecked. So this is not the answer...
    The strange thing is, I have been logging and transferring with FCE for 2 yrs without any problems at all with shorter clips, but have come up against the problem with long clips (over 5 or so min)  the whole time. I got around it by simply making sure I stopped recording after less than 5 min while shooting footage. OR if I accidentally got a long clip, I import into imovie and then import into FCE. Not very streamline and I worry about compressions altering quality!
    I am now trying to import a 20 min and a 17 min clip and it only transfers around 3 minutes of each, I have re-tried several times and it happens repeatedly. The blue circle in the transfer list shows up as a half blue circle instead of full. Clip cuts off after 3 or so minutes.
