I will be going to see it. Maybe more interesting will be all the pro and con editors and proponents and detractors weighing in on the future of FCPX on this forum following this release. Let’s hear from the Avid’s, the PPRO’s and the Xer’s.

(Or: best ‘render recipe’ for best quality?)Set up your own Youtube channel; it is free, upload your video, use Youtube share to find the link and then post it to your web site or send it to where you want it posted.
I prefer to use compressor to make files for youtube and then upload. Two steps, but better control.

February 14, 2015 at 1:50 am in reply to: Import DVCProHD From Pansonic HSX 200 MysteriesNoah, thanks for the suggestion, I thought it would work, but after turning off advanced pull down it still doesn’t work properly. I looked carefully and only the first 1/2 of the audio comes through and the video plays at 24 fps, but only every other frame is there. When I set it to 50%, it plays each frame twice and the sound is in synch with the video for the first half and missing for the second half. Because the remaining frames show twice it is effectively like it was shot at 12 frames per second. So somehow, only 1/2 of the frames come thru the import process.

OK,I am in, at least to spend 15 bucks at the multiplex to see FOCUS and assuage all the doubts generated by going with FCPX in 2011 and reading this forum over the years. Of course my 600,000 plus views on Youtube and monetized earnings of $17.31 may not qualify me as a “serious editor”, but I always enjoy the lively debates generated by this subject.

February 13, 2015 at 7:37 pm in reply to: Import DVCProHD From Pansonic HSX 200 MysteriesRead the link and so it is not a new problem and apparently there is no easy fix. I detached the audio, set the video rate to 50% and that solves the timing issue. The video is still choppy and the audio dies halfway through the clips. Since the downloaded clips, play wrong even in Quick-Time before FCPX touches them, the problem must be in the codecs.
Fortunately, these test were just a student exercise and once retimed illustrate what was needed as well as illustrating shooting 24 fps 1080 on the HSX 200 is a questionable plan. -

February 13, 2015 at 8:20 am in reply to: Import DVCProHD From Pansonic HSX 200 MysteriesI can also play the clips directly in Quicktime and the result of the same. They play very fast compared to the sound. Would it make sense to try and retime them in FCPX?

I used an ADVC 55 without trouble. Just have to go from Firewire 400 to Thunderbolt. FCPX recognized it and allowed me to capture.

The X-Effects demo looks impressive. Is it as good as it looks?

January 30, 2015 at 6:47 pm in reply to: best cheap method of digitising VHS tapes into FCPXThe DV code was how the Grass Valley converter put it out digitally. There is not much you can do with the analog stuff coming out of the VCR tapes, but maybe there is a better way.
