  • Would u guys link to these other posts.

    I have had the same problem and I think it’s a bug in Compressor 3.01. There are 6 extra lines in D1 footage for DVD MPEG purposes, so encoders have to take an EVEN number of lines off the top and bottom so that the field order does not change. If Compressor takes 3 off the top, 3 off the bottom, then the field order gets reversed.

    My workaround has been to use BitVice on the Mac or Procoder on my PC.

    2YUV is for compatability with CineWave captured files

    DVOO is for compatability with Digital Voodoo captured files.

    [Paul Provost] “media manager has always sucked on fcp, and some say it needs arebuild from the ground up to fix it…”

    Yes, I agree wholeheatedly. It amazes me that this was a problem from the FCP 1 days of the Media Trimmer, and they still haven’t fixed the speed change problem. It’s actually mind-boggling, since this is all pretty simple arithmatic, which computers are widely conceded to be very good at.

    My workaround FOR YEARS, has been to label all speed change clips, as well as non-captured audio (also a problem in my experience), so I can easily find where problem clips are when I do MM. Ievitably this comes in handy.

    This is a longtime problem with FW sources, especially miniDV shot on “prosumer” camcorders (in that case, usually switching decks will work). Being on D-Beta through DL is cause for concern.

    Trash all prefs, uninstall, and reinstall BM drivers.

    If that doesn’t help, delete and reinstall FCP.

    Failing that, ACK, back it ALL up and wipe the system/apps drive, reinstall the operating system and everything else.

    Finally, and this should be done periodically in any event, backup media drives, and do a full format (write zeros to all sectors). This will take any bad sectors out of use.

    No problems yet

    This is a 4-drive RAID 0

    [Sean ONeil] “Anyway, I’m not some programmer or hacker or anything like that. I wouldn’t have a clue how to solve that. I just figured out the P-JPEG thing by dumb luck”

    You’re still a rock star. I often do animated or MG offlines at JPEG 75%, and this just makes my life so much easier (I REALLY could have used this info last month).

    Thanks from everyone who likes the PJPEG codec

    [Noe Marti] “did Apple switch from “Kbyte/s” to “Kbits/s” ??”

    Yes, I find it annoying myself. It’s a nod to the networked world we now live in I think. Divide by 8

    Check for yourself, but watching offline RT gives me a headache
