[martin sayers] “running version HDe 13.0.2”

Then you can use it.

[Floh Peters]

Depends on the version you are on. If you can apply ClipFX via the Composite Suite, you can use the “Velocity Remap” filter inside it.

Do you work on an Intel Mac? Then you most likely have the PPC-only codecs. If you send me a mail to floh (at) mac (dot) com I can give you some more details about that.

[Floh Peters]

Hmmm, seems like everything is there. But still something seems to be wrong. Can you open the DVCProHD files in Quicktime Player?

[Floh Peters]

[Robert Slenker] “I assumed it may be a lack of a codec problem. I’ve read that I may need FCP to get them. Is that what I need to do? My university’s Art dept has it and I may be able to go over and copy the needed codecs from the QT>Library folder on their macs. ?? “
Yes, Copy everything that has DVCPro in the name from Library->Quicktime

Then the engineers have added the detailed info view in a later release. I was not sure about when this appeared. Anyway, you can have a look into the Codecs selection to see if DVCPROHD is active in the HD section.

[Floh Peters]

Not really sure what your problem is. But if you open Producer and you go to the “Media 100” Menu to the point “about Media 100”, there should be a tab named “Info”. There you can see if the DVCProHD codecs are installed correctly. Under Codecs DVCProHD should say “Yes”; then you have the codecs installed on your system. There have been several changes to the supported formats in the last couple of releases, so if the formats you recorded do not import into V11.6.2 chances are good that they do work in a later release.
If you have a 10.5.x system somewhere you could install the trial version of V13.0.2 and see if the files import there. Or if you can post a clip somewhere (like on an FTP server) I could download it and see if it imports into our V13 systems.

[Bryon Middleton] “Upon doing what you’ve suggested in Red Rushes i am getting nothing but black for video when i try the ProRes HQ setting. I’ve tried some of the others just to see if the footage was good and it’s there, just not showing up with the Pro Res or Uncompressed 10 bit. Any ideas?”

Not really. This works for me.

[Jack Shepard] ” I exported the sequence as an XML, copied the media on to a drive and attached it to the Media 100 computer, and imported the XML”

That´s what causing the problem. The XML files do have a fixed path to the media files, like “YourHD:YourMediaFolder:YourMediaFile”. If the media is not at this location the system does not find it. There are several ways to avoid this: either copy the files first and reconnect in FCP before exporting the XML, or open the XML in the text editor of your choice and manually fix the path to your media files with a “search and replace”. If you look into the XML file it is quite easy to identify the media file links. Or you could rename the transfer drive to the same name as the original media file location, so that the system looks into the right path automatically.

I guess there will be a workaround for this in one of the future Media 100 updates, though…

[David Issko] “isn’t that the software only media 100 edit suite? it is not the current m100 hardware version. “

In case you are speaking about the press release about the next version of Media 100; this is about the next version, named Media 100 Suite (instead of let´s say V14). With this release we will have a unified software, which can be used without hardware, with the HDx card, with a Kona card and with the Matrox MXO2. So there is no more Media 100 and Media 100 Producer.
