The footage is shot in 30p 1920 X 1080, Linear PCM. Thanks for the tip, I’ll get this app and test out the speed. Looks to me like FCP just can’t handle running a 3 cam multicam sequence….

Okay, so even my computer has trouble with using the function… This is bullshit

I’ve came to the conclusion that it’s most likely the drive that cant handle the information. I tested out the multi cam effect in premiere as well and it did the same thing. I guess these WD Red’s can’t handle the heat of a 3 camera multicam shoot… Going to try and loading the footage directly onto my computer and edit off that and see what happens.

Hey Sareesh,
Thanks for the link. We do have intravelometers on deck and will for sure be using them for this project. Anyway, thanks a lot. Seems like bracketing will be the best bet for the day to night portions of the event.

Oh sorry ha the Canon 7D…

Hey Jerry thanks for the reply,
I used a program called “card recovery” on a PC and it seemed to work… It was only 40 bucks compared to the Stellar Phoenix which cost me 113 and didn’t even work… Don’t use Stellar Phoenix

I do have fw800, not sure about thunderbolt. My MacBook is a couple years old now… Thinking of upgrading to a MacPro tower in the near future and running my 32” lcd TV as my monitor (until I save up the funds for a couple solid monitors) but wanted to test it out with my MacBook Pro first to see if it was even worth while doing… Suggestions?

November 23, 2011 at 11:15 pm in reply to: 40 Minute HD Project- Best Way To Export From FCPI’m exporting as a self contained right now and it says it’s going to take 20 hours (still at 0 percent) in using a MacBook pro 2.26ghz dual core 2 intel with 2gb memory 1067 MHz ddr3… I’m saving it from my USB hard drive to my computers hard drive which has 23 gigs free space… I’m guessing this file is going to be massive, is that enough room? If the export doesn’t work I guess I’ll resort to exporting using mp4 just because I know that works… Exporting really isn’t my forte so any additional info you can give me would be fantastic, I just need this to be done by 8 am pst tomorrow so I know if it takes so long to export then I have to be pretty sure about what to do, anyway thanks

November 23, 2011 at 11:04 pm in reply to: 40 Minute HD Project- Best Way To Export From FCPHey Steve, Currently following your instructions. I am running the footage off a seagate usb harddrive and doing the first export (as self contained, saving to my computers harddrive) and it says its going to take 10 hours…. I have a macbook pro 2.26 GHz, intel core 2 duo with 2GB of Memory 1067 MHz DDR3… My only question is, will this export come out looking great and will the file be over 20GB? I only have like 23 gigs free on my computers hardrive right now and am hoping this will work out. I don’t mind that it takes long to export I mean as long as it comes out looking good and being sent off by 8AM tomorrow morning then I’m happy but I don’t want to wait and have the export looking shitty…. I never used to use usb harddrives only firewire but heard that usb was just as fast so I never really paid attention… Is this why my exports take so much longer? or is my macbook just not fast enough to export hd video ?
Exporting is one of my biggest downfalls so anything you can expand on would really help me…
