  • The book Craft of Editing book media offline

    Posted by Joseph Torres on February 8, 2009 at 4:00 pm

    I have lessons on a dvd that came with the book for Final cut pro, I have final cut express and the lessons show up on the browser with a red line, i click to re-connect and nothing happens, I even try quicktime to see if I could do something with it, and nothing.
    I know there is a way to do this, a download, a conversion of files or some hack.

    Please help I’m desperate.

    where exactly is the red line? is above the timeline or is it a cross on the clip in the project panel?

    Sounds like those files are not compatible with Final Cut Experess.

    Final Cut express can only work with DV codec or HDV video in the Apple Internediate codec.

    There are no “technical solutions” to your “artistic problems”.
    Don’t let technology get in the way of your creativity!

    The answers will be the same on this forum. FCP project files are not compatible with FCE. Some of the media is in a format not supported by FCE.

    All the best,
