I hope someone else can chime in – but I’ve not had even good experience with FCP7 and its share option – had to got through COMPRESSOR to burn a bluray and that worked. But my MCE drive would only use memorex not Verbatim media. So as we speak I am testing a new drive MCE sent me with Verbatim media and it’s at 25% complete burning so we’ll see. But as to your issues, perhaps someone else can give y good advice and soon.

Thanks

Hi

Please write to MCE and tell them what’s happening – how are you burning? Via Toast or Finder? I couldn’t do either and had to go through MCE tech support and they after a a little while, sorted me out with a better solution.

Thanks

OK, what I did was re try the whole thing this time using XDcam transfer and NOT FCP 7 and it worked…I would’ve thought it would be the opposite but it worked…so case closed

Interesting, thank you. So the Pioneer BDR-205 is a good one then?

Thanks for replies – whatever drive I get it must work with earl 2008 MAC PRO with an EIDE/ATAPI interface…so I don’t think I can use that Pioneer one, but am still looking.

Thanks

Been burning 20-22GB worth of files/folders as a data BD-R but these MCE drives can’t correctly deal with Verbatim 25GB BD-R’s. anywhere from 3-5 hours for one burn using Toast 10.0.6

Yes I know something is very wrong – been on the phone for long time to MCE Tech, Roxio Toast – no joy – MCE is sending me another burner but I fear this MCE burner can’t take Verbatim BD-r’s or something. I couldn’t burn via Finder to my MCE bluray burner so bought Toast and though it burns it takes hours per – As we speak it’s been 4 hours and counting and it says it’s only at 78% complete. Any thoughts?

Thanks

“You may not want to gel them to match exactly, though. They should give off at least some of their natural color temp; even our eyes see differences in degrees kalvin. ”

You’re right, I needn’t be too zealous…

Good advice, thanks…I’ll try that re: PP at 4600 then play with it by 100’s. Also, if I went the route of gelling the lights (regardless of whether they were tungsten or otherwise, would this bring the lights to match the outdoors?

That’s a great and simple idea – blue gel the overheads (if I can), very good solution….thanks very much to everyone for helpful thoughts…good forum here.
