January 2, 2017 at 1:54 am in reply to: Any currently available I/O devices for Media 100?

I believe the AJA LHi is qualified to run under Thunderbolt II in the Sonnet SEII expansion chassis which will hold to 2 of the medium length PCIe cards. I have an SE II but do not use it for M100. I have a 2012 Mac Pro Tower I use for the AJA card and M100. It works great with the two 1TB SSD cards from OWC. OWC also sells the Helios II which is basically an SEII OEM. Have one of those as well and it works perfectly and is also supposed to be qualified for the LHi.

I would suspect you were hosed by Adobe and not Blackmagic. Resolve is becoming a Premiere eater.

I love mine. Also my new Retina Macbook Pro. Great with FCPX.

Anyone remember Freehand. Better than Illustrator. Bought by Adobe and dumped.

Same for me. Motion does me fine. $49.95. Once. And AE Cow is not titled as a “Debate” forum.

November 16, 2015 at 8:45 am in reply to: Advice on docu workflow with SD tape footage, FCPX or not?

Agree. I use the SDI out of my Panasonic AJ-D650 to encode to ProRes 422 and depending on what the other material is encoded in, even ProRes 422HQ if there is not that much material. I can see a difference from Firewire output of the Pansonic mini-DV VTR. Of course all of the DVCPro is SDI out.

Mauricio, I have used the ProRes files generated in MediaExpress in FCPX and they work fine. I have only created folders to export them to and moved them to FCPX where they were automatically assigned roles. I have put them on a timeline and they behave normally. I used MediaExpress software instead of FCPX for capture to ProRes 422 and HQ (test) as it is specifically designed to interface with the Blackmagic Teranex 2D and also the Ultrastudio 4K I have. This was using SDI out from the Panasonic DVCPro 650 VTR. FCPX seemed to me to be more of a file based acquisition program, and I have used it to bring in the EX-1 1080 HD and the Nikon HD files as ProRes 422. Those are also playing well with the tape based SD uprezed video I have tested. FCPX also plays quite well with SD footage on an SD timeline if you choose to go that route. That is about all I can tell you at the moment. Best of luck, let us know how it works for you.
