Thanks, Noah.

Does that mean that if I have both FCP programs and both Motion programs that they will each integrate with their appropriate counterpart without me having to do anything above and beyond normal operations?

Or, will having two of each application cause problems that I am unaware of?

thanks again.

I have the same camera and would be curious about what you found. I watched your video and can’t understand why the background was moving but the subject was not.

March 28, 2012 at 10:20 pm in reply to: RAID 5 inside my macpro

well, I should probably backup to the beginning. I currently run an external SATA enclosure from Promax which can be striped RAID 0 but not RAID 5. I wanted to upgrade to RAID 5 so I have some redundancy (to cover my backside if a drive fails) and hopefully get some improvement in throughput speed.

This is when I started kicking around the idea of using the internal bays and figured if I could use the 3 available to get 4.5 useable at RAID 5 that wouldn’t be too bad.

what I don’t know:

-how to do it (guess I need a new card to set it up)
-which drives will be best for editing with full raster HD files (either native, ProRes or XDCam probably)

but Bob’s post mentioned putting the drives in and configuring RAID 0. Tempting, but then I don’t accomplish the CYA motive I mentioned earlier.

thanks again.

Thanks, Bob

I was thinking RAID 5 for the redundancy in case a drive fails but it is tempting to go RAID 0 for the simplicity and extra storage compared to RAID 5.

And since I don’t really know what I’m doing with this stuff, I don’t take any advice as condescending. So, please keep it coming.

thanks, Chad. Just realized my enclosure is not set up for RAID config. it’s JBOD. might need a new enclosure as well. more research….

September 15, 2011 at 7:35 pm in reply to: motion files suddenly not updating in FCP

further investigation of the motion file reveals this…

in the fcp browser under “compressor” it says “Motion Codec Decompressor” while older motion files have nothing under that field.

under “Data Rate” it is only 599/sec as opposed to older files listed at 25.3 K/sec

under “alpha” it says “black” and older files say “straight”

I can’t seem to find a place to change these settings.
