Where do you find this adjustment? I can’t find it.

Jerry,
How do you ‘force’ assign RAM to FCP?

Charles,
Thanks, I figured out what how to do it. This is my first attempt at using camera moves. Keyframing is completely different than normal motion in AE.

How about using a 2nd smaller camera and lock it down on a shot of the GPS unit. With matching TC you would know where you are all times. Not the easiest to do in a chopper, but possible if it’s a big one like a Bell Long Ranger.

Great idea, but what we really need is P2 unit that can record all formats, HD-SDI and Firewire in/out. Small and easy to mount on the back or hotshoe of Varicam or HDX900. I tried the FS100 and didn’t like it. Too big and the cable input was flimsy and undependable.

I see more and more HD clips posted on websites. So, HD is here right now. With H.264 codecs, you can get some really nice looking clips posted on the web.

I was an early user of M100 and switched to FCP about 3 years ago. I don’t miss it at all. Sure, there’s always going to be a few user things that are different, but speed-wise, I’m rockin’ with FCP everyday.

Take note on the things that might have made a difference in your FCP test. Graphic cards, RAID speed, RAM, Codecs used etc. All effects speed.

Mark,
Thanks for following up.

Can I ask what that your ‘Caption Inserter Box’ is? I’m using a Kona3 card, I would think that since it’s the best, it should pass the CC code.

I guess I was hoping it the workflow would be as easy as just sending them an Uncompressed SD file, have them encode the CC and send it back to me as a file.

I will call the couple of companies referenced in the thread and see what their workflow is.

Thanks guys!

Thanks for the links!!!

Question… do you send off a script and video file on portable HD, have them encode it and put it back on your Drive? Or do you send them a tape?

This project is only SD. I would like to send them a file as that would be easier to import back into FCP and export to BetacamSP tape. What’s you guys’ workflow?

I’ve had both the above units and they are excellent. The Fusion 500’s are great. Been using them for 2 years with no issues.
