[Kris Merkel] “instead of transcoding to one of the advanced codecs”
I agree but the problem is that they are not available with FCE, ProRes and DVCProHD are bundled with FCP and not the Mac. I can purchased DVCProHD but I’m not sure I would use it as a conversion codec and ProRes codec available for download is playback only (just the dec part, no co) -
“Sequence” just automatically makes a new sequence and puts the clip on there for you. You can do this.
All need to be working with the clips in the bin, the master clips. Since you have them sync’ed in a timeline, select clip on v1 do a match frame set on in point, this is on the master clip not in the timeline. Then do the same with the clip on v2 but make sure you do not move the playhead. The in the bin select both clips and Make Multiclip Seq. sync by In point.
This will open up the new seq with the clip on it. Make sure that Multiclip playback is enabled. In the viewer make it 4 up, Sync set to open. Now your canvas will show the current/active angle but the viewer will have both angles up and will play in sync.
Take a look at the manual for the way to edit live and when stopped. The one thing that gets people the first time out is the difference between “switch to angle” and “cut to angle” you want “cut to…” when editing, “switch to” is like a practice run, once you stop it does back to the way it was.

Yes, I smile every time I think about the old days. Authoring with Sonic Creator would give you ulcers. The proofing tool was so buggy, nothing stayed in sync, scripts never did what you thought they should, you really had to burn a disc to do a real proof of the project. I started with the disc at $50 per.
I do get a kick out of people whining about burning coasters today. I burn disc just to do 10 minute test encodes and then throw them out.
Maybe I’ll frame them or something.
I also have some DLT drives that are up for grabs!

” and it isn’t read a Blu Ray disc.”
What type of disc are you trying to view?

I like OWC stuff, well made and great service but drives go bad, you need to have a backup in place. WD Black Cav are my first choice in drives. I would never buy a LaCie drive, I have had too much trouble with the few I have used and everyone I know that uses them has had trouble.
That enclosure is a lot faster if you have a eSata card in your computer.

[Jason Djang] “I get it whether on Avid or FCP “
Maybe you should try Premiere Pro.Sorry for making a joke out of your pain. 🙂

These are progressive cameras NEVER interlace the footage, NEVER.
The codec is what is going to make playback better, QuickTime is not a codec, it is just the wrapper. I don’t know what codecs FCE can use, without FCP you don’t get ProRes or DVCProHD so maybe your best bet is to use AIC (Apple Intermediate Codec) with Streamclip. I would give it a try at 1920×1080 before scaling down to 720p.

No scrolls, dead or alive, just disc. Come across them and was just wondering if anyone could use them.

Why not use multicam? If your video are in sync, set an In point on both master clips that are in sync and make a multicam clip. Canvas will show only the active angle but the viewer shows both.

Without your disc you cannot do a clean install, period. If you clone your drive and then migrate you are not doing a clean install.
The only thing you can do is to trash all the preferences but that is no where near the same thing.

Sorry you are SOOL
