    Olof, that is great, you should share that Generator 🙂

    I forgot it’s a 4 year school now. So you can delve deeper into the craft. If you want to prepare students for the world of professional editing you’d be better off teaching them Avid. The fact is, most students will not be able to get a job out of college working on an Avid. FCPX doesn’t work in my companies current infrastructure either since SAN isn’t supported, but I suspect that will eventually change. No reason to jump ship right away. FCP7 will still be widely in use for another 2-3 years I suspect. I have not found any places I’ve ever worked that use Premiere.

    I went to Ricks back in the day. Speaking as a former student and now professional editor I think you should stick with FCP. You don’t need to switch to X right away. Besides, you don’t need to teach “professional” editing. FCPX would suffice for even the most advanced of students.

  • That’s a fair trade. Anyone who asks a ‘dumb’ or highly asked question should have to answer that question the next 5 times it comes up.

  • I searched “final cut audio sync 23.98 25” and I looked at a few threads but nothing I thought was relevant. Sometimes it’s about putting the right search terms. I didn’t make you reply to my thread no reason to seem so inconvenienced. I don’t post a lot and often find problems by searching. I realize there is a lot of duplicate questions. So yeah. Chill out a little.

  • I did a search but nothing came up. Now that I search “Matt Lyon” some stuff comes up. Thanks. It’s strange because even if I set the easy setup properly, and even quit before it still doesn’t work. I just opened a blank FCP project from scratch, and the media showed up correctly. I’m not sure what’s going on, but at least I have a workaround and can troubleshoot from here.

    It sounds like everyone figured this out. I had this error today whilst doing a 29.97 1080i downconversion (via Kona 3 Control Panel) to NTSC. I simply changed the deck control preset from 59.94 to 29.97 and everything was peachy.

    Okay, I get what you’re saying. Well, I actually am not trying to mix formats. What I could do is exactly what you’re saying. I can export the whole file as 444 RGB, then convert to 422 YUV. How do you suggest I make this correction though? Using color correction, or a color space conversion tool of some kind?

    I barely even understand what you’re trying to say. I realize they are using different color spaces. I’m sure there is software that is capable of doing RGB to YUV conversions more accurately. The HDCAMSR deck seems to handle the conversion correctly. Granted, it is $100k worth of hardware in there. Still, I don’t think it’s unreasonable for Final Cut to be able to handle this more accurately.

    That’s perfect, thanks for the info.
