You can also get a core 2Duo to boot in 64bit automatically with a little program called 32bit or 64bit Kernel Starup Selector.
Check it out here https://www.ahatfullofsky.comuv.com/English/Programs/S4M/S4M.html
I’m currently use this mode to boot in 64 bit automatically on some of our office computers. Since the current version of FCP is 32bit, I usually have to end up staying in 32 bit. But, as perviously mentioned, the 32bit mode will still run 64bit apps, like the Adobe CS5 programs.

Oh I never lost the droplet. I just failed to save it as a setting and I needed to tweak the setting that I had so painstakingly created, but you can’t change a droplet.
Now I know how.

Hey All,
We have successfully used GraphEasts product to do an entire 14 minute video, that had over 50 Arabic titles. We were running AE CS4 on a Mac(snow leopard 2008 MBP). It worked really well. The only issue was that the translators graphics list was a .doc and I had to open it in Pages to get it to copy correctly.
The program costs $99.00 and comes with 30 fonts. It seems to work in most Adobe programs. I found it as a suggestion on Arabic Mac speakers forums. It used to be free and then I guess GraphEast bought it and essentially is licensing it now. You can copy large chunks of Arabic using this tool and don’t need internet access to do so.
You can find this software at https://grapheast.com/ge-software/cp.php?id=99. But if you need an urgent solution, contact them as early as possible. The company that sells it is in Dubai, and thus they are quite a few hours off where we are in the U.S. EST. You have to e-mail their sales people and ask to purchase it, they don’t have an automated purchase and download system.
Hope that this helps!

The one other thing that I found that might work is called ArPix Pro. Check it out here-https://grapheast.com/ge-software/cp.php?id=99

We have to translate graphics that we did for a client into Arabic. Is there ANY way to do this with After Effects with out purchasing the Middle East edition? I have tried almost every thing, but no matter how I try to copy and paste, the only thing that seems to work would be to take a screen shot and convert the text in Illustrator to something I could use in AE.
It currently shows up like with as separate broken characters when I try to paste it in.
Thanks,

It is called Text Reverser and it is specifically designed to reverse text, so that Right to Left languages display correctly in after effects.
It can be bought at: https://aescripts.com/textreverser/
. It’s $5.00, so it is definitely worth buying simply to experiment with.
For Arabic/Hebrew and other right to left languages.

Hmm, Perhaps try not depressing that volume boost button on the back of the Mackie board. On your capture settings be sure to set the number of channels in to 2 channels. Also make sure that whatever ingest method you are picking will recognize video from the input your using as well as the XLR audio that you’re feeding in.
Our cheapo DVD player has an additonal Co-Axial Out which effectively is another RCA out, which you may link this to the Ref Loop in.
Also, why not save yourself a whole heap of pain in the kiester by using a program like HandBrake(freeware)<https://handbrake.fr/> to rip to DVD off an optical drive or Cinematize <https://www.miraizon.com/store/store.html>, thou Cinematize only works on DVD’s with no copy protection.

No really sure. The rub is, if you set the easy setup to 23.98, will the 30 fps signal be recognized by the system or I/o? Sorry to be blunt about it, but you’ll just have to try it. If it recognizes the signal then you should IN THEORY be able to transcode to 23.94 fps on ingest. Best of luck, even though MPEG Streamclip is excellent, I know that it can be a pain to use. Using compressor and multiple cores/sets of RAM might be the way to go too to speed up the process(assumeing FCP can’t do it).

Alright keeping in mind that I’m on FCP 7.0 or rather the latest edition.Plug the RCA from the DVD player into your Mackie boards “Tape Input”, this should be at the top of the Mackie Board next to the Mackie logo, I am describing a Mackie 1202 VLZ Pro board btw.
Okay once you have those RCA’s pluged in take the XLR cables and plug those into “Main Right” and “Main Left” Balanced XLR outputs, next to these outputs you should see a grey button called “Main Output Level” Press that In.
Now plug the other end of those XLR cables into the input of the IO, if you need to make a feedback loop plug the another set of Cable XLR audio out cables from the I/O’s XLR out and plug the other XLR cables back into the boad at the Mic 1 and Mic 2 XLR inputs.
Make sure to use whatever AJA Io easy set up that you should be using in FCP, and then MAKE SURE that whatever your audio and video capture settings are that your AUDIO AND VIDEO PLAYBACK settings match those exactly.
What type of video are you ingesting this as?
