Steve,

There used to be a place in Ft Lauderdale called Digital Comm Link. They should be able to help you.

Or you can try Miami News Net.

Everything is working fine after the download.. Thanks so much for your quick responses. Have a great day!

[Greg Ball]

Thanks Ian, Yes I’m running Snow Leopard 10..6.4 and FCP 7.0.3 I still can’t figure out how to download the update though. When I go to the download prompt, it takes me to the agreement form, where I check the box, but there’s no images that say download now. Most of the images are just blue question marks.

Thanks Craig, I’ve tried to download 2.6 from this site:

It’s not showing me all of the images so I can download. Is therr another location where I can download this?

$100.00!!! Please let me know where you’re located, because I’d love to hire you for that rate and then mark it up to a realistic amount.

I don’t know why these clips were not recognized as 8 bit uncompressed. but recapturing fixed everything.

Thanks for your help guys

[Greg Ball]

Thanks for answering my questions, but you guys are missing the real question here. On the timeline where you have the RT drop down button, the ONLY are:

Play Base layer Only
Use play back settings
Full quality.

Where are:
Safe RT
Unlimited RT
Scrub High Quality

Dynamic Playback
High
Low
ECT?

They are not on this new software timeline. Please help with this.

As far as the codec is concerned.I’be been editing 8 bi uncompressed since FCP 3.0. I’m using the correct 8 bit uncompressed codec.

Thanks Dave. But I’m not seeing any options on the RT pop-up menu on the timeline. I don’t see any safe or unlimited options, no playback quality options, etc. There’s nothing there except what I posted earlier.

That would solve my problem. I think having a brand new 8 core model has enough processing power for 8 bit uncompressed.

Why don’t you tell your boss that you’ll give him a haircut too. Then you can rob some hair stylist out of $50.00 while you cut his hair for $2.00. I’m sure the boss will just love his new look. Better yet, offer that service to his wife.

Bottom line. You get what you pay for.

Thanks Michael.
