March 6, 2012 at 3:45 pm in reply to: copy (cmd+C) from photoshop to carry alpha channel into other apps – works in CS4, but not in CS5!?I did it with 3 layers and it worked – I cmd clicked the highest layer, command c copy and then pasted into the finder.
Don’t get rid of the other layers.

Just went to test this is Red Standalone (didn’t want to fire up MC) – and it seems no. But you could scale it down a small amount proportionally (or not)

March 6, 2012 at 3:08 pm in reply to: Adding a video transition works sometimes & sometimes not?Just to expand on this a little further – transitions require footage beyond the in/out point of the clip – you’re essentially extending the clip. You’re running into trouble because one/both sides of your clips have no extra footage.
Generally, as a ‘best practice’ never use the first/last second of a clip if you can avoid it – and this problem goes away. If you were to drag+drop one transition, you’ll see on a normal edit how you can have the transition affect the left (ending at cut), center (centered on cut) or right (starting at cut.) When you do this for clips without handles, you’ll see the difference.

March 6, 2012 at 3:03 pm in reply to: FCPX and Compressor 4 – where are the detailed settings?Send it over to compressor.
Use compressor to pick whatever setting you want and customize it (just like in compressor 3)
Apple has a youtube preset set to 20,000k.

March 6, 2012 at 2:58 pm in reply to: copy (cmd+C) from photoshop to carry alpha channel into other apps – works in CS4, but not in CS5!?I’m not sure why it changed – but I got it to work and I’ll tell you what I did (and then I’ll email you this too!)
I copied just what was on the layer – not the background/transparent. CMD click on the layer and only it is selected. Paste that into your icon.
I just tested this with CS 5.5 + the finder.

March 4, 2012 at 11:54 pm in reply to: Adding numbers to source/record with MacBook Pro generates errorNo, those work fine – could you have the “per track” settings wrong (in the timeline fast menu/audio?) Make sure the track is active (live) too.
As for the 2x control key, I think they know (or they do now!)

March 4, 2012 at 3:44 pm in reply to: Taking a MC6 project offline for editing on the road?Sorry I missed this.
Open the Media tool. Select all drives + current project. Show master clips (only).
select all, transcode to a different drive; have it copy the audio as well.
Dupe the project and put it on the 2nd system.
Edit as you will.
Grab the bin, put it on the main system – it should just relink – if it has two copies of media you can relink specific to drive and/or resolution.
