    Success! I don’t know what I did differently because the audio was checked when I went have a look in “Inspector”. Will make a note to go use the settings you recommend. Thanks!

    One thing I certainly need and that’s a much bigger screen. At the default resolution the text is so tiny.

    when I open compressor 3 windows pop up. One is settings. In the settings tab, there are video options and audio options to drag and drop onto the window called “untitled”. I can’t seem to drop the audio settings 48kHz and 16 bit AIFF along with Pro Res 422 HQ. Hum, wish this wasy easier. What am I missing here?

    Thanks Tom, just noticed you are the author of the “Basic Training for Final Cut Stuido” DVD I’ve been watching.

    I’m new to Mac editing – coming over from the PC side. My fellow PC editors have said I’ve gone over to the dark side. LOL

  • I would go with the 7200 rpm drive and I prefer the nonglare screen.

    If I read your post correctly, you can load a FCP on a Desktop & and laptop but only run one at a time?

    Excellent, thanks everyone for your posts. I’ll place my order for a Macbook Pro and FCP Monday. Watch after I order, Apple will introduce Quad Macbook Pros!

    Thanks for the link. I read the article but my main concern is proper setup to capture from the cam to an external hard drive connected to the laptop.

    The HDV cam will be connected to the firewire 800 port on the laptop. It is ok then to connect an Esata drive to the express card slot with an express card esata adapter? I don’t want to connect the HDV cam to the hard drive and then to the FW800 port. I’m coming over from the PC world so I just need to make sure the hardware will work. Thanks!

    so capturing HDV from miniDV tape from a sony Z1 cam (4pin firwire400) via the FW800 9 pin port, to a estat drive connected to an express card will work on a macbook pro 17in? I’d like work in the prores codec.
