.WMV conversion to .mov to work in FCP

I just had a client send me a .WMV file and I obviously can't pull it into FCP. Is there a way to convert it to a quicktime format? I hope this is enough info.

Which version did you download? The Studio version has much more functionality than the Player and PlayerPro versions. This page describes differences: http://www.flip4mac.com/wmv.htm
And here's the Data Sheet on all versions (see page 2): http://www.flip4mac.com/pdfs/datflip4macwmv.pdf
Use the version appropriate to your needs.

  • Why does a H264 mov looks better with FCP then with compressor

    Hi all,
    I was wondering why I get better results with making .mov in FCP/ QT Conversion then with Compressor 3.
    I've made a movie in FCP -(XDCam EX1080p 25 (35mb/s VBR). It must be exported to a H264 mov. 480x270. When I export it using FCP/QT Conversion it looks good.
    After exporting a movie with the same settings in FCP ((XDCam EX1080p 25 (35mb/s VBR), I use it in Compressor. But after rendering it looks aliasing, even with the same settings as in FCP.
    I want to work with compressor, so I can still work with FCP when I'm rendering a movie.
    Any ideas?

    does anybody know why?
    In simple terms, in order to edit your footage, iMovie needs a certain amount of data about each frame.
    In the compressed form stored on the all the necessary data isn't present, so the missing pieces have to be filled back in to allow you to edit. This process increases the file size.
    Once you've edited your movie it can then be re-compressed.

  • Waves 5.9.7- Finally Working in FCP!

    The folks at Waves must have finally got their act together. The age old problem of Waves Audio Units not working in FCP seems to be over. After installing the update, I crossed my fingers and launched FCP 6.0.1 and voila, no crash!
    It's not that I ever used these plugs in FCP, but I'd always have to remove them from my components folder after using them in Logic. They would never let FCP start up otherwise. So, I'm just happy I don't have to go through that step all the time anymore!

    Does FCP still take 30-45 minutes to load the Waves bundle? In my experience, it would launch eventually on some version combinations...
    Even if you can use them in FCP, you would still see the numerical effects tab interface, instead of the nice skins you see in Logic. But at least you don't have to remember to drag them out of the plugins folder each time you want to launch FCP...
    I'm interested about this because I teach FCP at a school where Logic, Pro Tools, and the Waves bundles are on the same student workstations - We'd have to move those Waves files around at the start and end of every class.

  • Exporting QT movie that works for any browser

    I started with a 922 MB slideshow with music exported from itunes
    saved from QT for web it is 4KB will play in QT only if you set connection speed to slow modem (28.8/33.6 Kbps) and not at all in some Explorer Browsers even with the QT plugin.
    I noticed that there is an demo Flip 4 Mac option to export the movie as a Movie to Windows Media wmv file. The demo only works for a few seconds. Is there a better way to make this movie work across all platforms without having to upgrade Flip4?
    The movie is at
    http://homepage.mac.com/jwagnerj/inspiring%20design%20web/inspiring%20design.htm l
    thanks!

    Exporting to WMV won't make it work across all platforms it will make it work for Windows (and force every mac user to get Flip4mac).
    You can manually export in QT Pro to a size and quality you are happier with than 4KB from 922 MB (quite the compression!). That is so small I wonder if it is a reference movie and not the final movie?
    Most web pages use Flash for these clips, you can convert to flash free by the backdoor method - create a YouTube account; upload to Youtube then use one of the Firefox tools to download (like Video Downloader) your FLV file they made for you. I presume you can take things down from Youtube, if not, label it something like chlorophyll synthesis in cabbages and nobody will find it anyway.

  • Conversion from Handbrake to QT to FCP

    I am trying to use some press footage that came to me on DVD and trying to convert it to work in FCP. I convert the video in Handbrake (which works great), then the file is in Quicktime as an MP4, where I try to convert it to a QT .mov file (which works there too), but then when I try to Import it in FCP . . . FCP tells me that the file won't work. I had QT convert it to 29.97 FPS at 640x480 as DV/NTSC, but still won't work.
    Is there something I'm missing or a setting I should be aware of? Thanks for any help.

    Here's a tutorial for converting a DVD for import into Final Cut Pro.

  • How can I convert a WMV to an MOV?

    I've been trying to convert a WMV to an MOV. However, I've been getting the error "The source compression type is not supported." I've used AME to convert this file type before. Not sure how I should proceed. Any ideas?

    I use this for problem clips.

  • Apple Pro Res 4444, does it work with FCP 6?

    Does ProRes 4444 work with FCP 6? I don't think so but wanted to check before I had the film lab telecine my film. I'm stuck with FCP 6. Might have to go with ProRes 422 (HQ) ?

    Jon Chappell wrote:
    Are you 100% sure that you can write to ProRes 4444 files in QT 7.6.2? I would have thought you'd need FCS3 for that.
    See, I knew the editing gods would humble me.
    I just re-tested this on a separate FCS 2 partition and it turns out my memory was failing. While you can read and import the new ProRes codecs, you can cannot render out to them in the FCP 6 + QT 7.6.2 universe. So yeah, getting all ProRes4444 files would be a hassle on an FCP 6 setup.
    Ugh, sorry for the bad steer.

  • I updated to Mavericks and a bunch of my info deleted.  I tried opening a previous iDVD I made, but when I click on it, it says to look for themes.  How do I get my movie to work?  Thanks.

    I updated to Mavericks and a bunch of my info deleted.  I tried opening a previous iDVD I made, but when I click on it, it says to look for themes.  How do I get my movie to work?  Thanks.

    Did you do an erase and install of Mavericks?  If not look in the HD/Library/Application Support folder for an iDVD folder.  There should be a Themes folder in it. If it's not there look in your Home/Library/Applications Suport folder for the iDVD folder.
    NOTE: In Mavericks, 10.9,  the Home Library is invisible so go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring up this window:
    Select Show Library Folder.  Now you can check to see if the iDVD folder in there.
    If you find the iDVD folder launch iDVD, go to its Advanced preference pane and point iDVD to the Themes folder:
    If you can't find the Themes folder you'll need to reinstall iDVD from the source you installed it from originally, i.e. the disks that came with your Mac or an iLife 09 or 11 disk.

  • Open and work on FCP project file located at xsan volume

    It is recommended by apple to *open and work on FCP project file located at xsan volume*
    or we should open , work and save our FCP project file from local drive only .
    Is there is risk of corrupting xsan volume if we open FCP project file placed in xsan volume .
    where should be the location of FCP project files ??????
    Mac pro 2.66 , FCP 6.01, xsan 1.4

    Opening a file twice is a indeed a problem. To prevent this, and for numerous other reasons, we use Open Directory. In OD you can configure that a user can login just once (concurrently).
    In old versions of xsan it was not recommended to put project files on xsan, but nowadays it works fine.
    Putting projectfiles on a san has the advantage that a user can work on any client. If this is not important in your environment these files can be stored locally.

    Working with fcp 6.0.6 I can't see the clip in the viewer until I start or play. Used to show fine.

    This is the FCPX forum.
    Sounds like the viewer is in wireframe mode or is alpha display mode. If this isn't the case you need to go to the Final Cut Studio forum and give more details.
