Walter and Company’s podcast was just a bunch of guys standing around, talking about the stuff they love and can’t wait to get back to. The boys of NAB made everything sound exciting and successfully put everything about the new FC Studio into perspective for those of us who couldn’t make it to Vegas this time. It simply doesn’t get any better than that.
Congratulations to all of you.

Export your 30 min. movie ( with 18 chapter markers) from FCP, encode to MPEG2 with Compressor, bring the .m2v file into DVD Studio Pro and use the ‘Stories’ function to arrange your 18 pieces in any order you wish. You can also have a “play all” button to play back the entire 30 min. movie with no breaks or pauses.

Thanks Walter. When reading your diary I’m sure it’ll be like I’m really there.

Since it’s affecting all your projects, trash your FCP preference files and try exporting again:

[AlexHuber69] “I imagine they have HDMI, but doubt they have HD-SDI ports.”
That’s right, and only the HD20 has HDMI. The only other way you could go is to get something like a KONA card and convert the HDV signal from an HV20 to any codec you want during capture. But this would quickly inflate the cost of capturing when what you really want is a REAL deck.
[AlexHuber69] “Aside from all the technical reasons to prefer a real deck, there is an aesthetic one: when clients are in the suite during editing sessions and see you feeding tape out of a little cheap camera instead of a nice deck in the rack, you just look sort of, well, low rent.”
Agreed. Until then you might consider going to a movie prop house and getting them to make up a pretend deck with a bunch of lights and a numerical LED reader on the front 🙂 Of course, it would have to be big enough to actually contain the HV20.

[Joachim Freitag] “i will tell, how to produce bruce the wonderyak! … or do you already know?”
It’s extremely bad luck for anyone to post any information concerning Bruce. Consider yourself duly informed and you’ll have no one to blame but yourself if you do post something about Bruce and your computer goes up in flames immediately afterwards 🙂

Does this mean we get to call it “Def Leopard” until it’s actually released? iPhone – Def Leopard? Get it? Aw, never mind. Lame-O.

Most are using the Canon HV10 or 20 as a deck until somebody makes a real one that supports the 30F and 24F HDV codecs. This way you’re not wearing out the tape transport on your aquisition camera.

Try doing a “Save As” on your project and work with the new one for a while to see if the same problem crops up. I’m thinking that it might be a corrupt project file.
If that doesn’t work then export an XML file and open it up in a new project. Maybe that will solve it.
It may also be a piece of corrupt media. To check that you need to make your media offline and then connect one at a time, do some work and then save, connect another piece, etc. Slow, but……. Sometimes one of the worst offenders of corrupt media turn out to be pictures or graphics.
Hope this helps.

Here’s one source:
https://www.apple-history.com/
They’re saying in August 2006 at the WWDC the Mac Pro was announced by Apple. I would cross reference this date with other sources to make sure of accuracy. I can’t find anything that says when they actually started shipping, though.
Here’s another resource:
