[Frantic] “Typicalliay we get Downconverted HD footage on tape at 23.98fps”
I don’t know of any SD tape that records at 23.98. When downconverting HD to SD decks typically change 23.98 to 29.97 using a 2:3 pulldown.
Give us some more info about your workflow and we’ll give you some more specifics.

I’m not an expert, but I did get a Xserve RAID set up once. It sounds like either your IP addresses for the Xserve RAID changed or you have bad ethernet cables.
I’d try to look into these.

The only SATA drives that I know of that aren’t compatible with your system are dead ones.
You’ll want to format the drive using disc utility, but other than that, you should be good to go.

Check to see what QT components you have in the Library/QuickTime folder. If you have another system with FCP on it, compare the folders. If you’re missing anything, copy the files that you’re missing over.

For backup, the big key is to have it in two places. Hard drives can just stop working. So if you’re going to get into something like a USB drive, I’d suggest that you get two and copy the same data to both of them. Then store one of the drives off site.
Hard drives are hard to beat on price now days for backup.

This isn’t normal. Have you restarted or deleted your preferences yet?

Maybe we should get a Wii set up at the Cow booth next year for NAB. Just as long as people don’t walk off with the controllers.

I’d use either Motion or After Effects to create a black and white video that you could use in FCP as a transition by using the Luma Travel Matte Composite Mode.
If you have a basic puzzle design that you like, we could walk you through it. Or you could hire someone to build a couple of transitions for you. It wouldn’t take long.

[walter biscardi] “I used to be addicted to that game on the XBox 360 but now it gathers dust. I have to tilt the Wiimote a bit away from the screen when I swing to avoid a hook. You’ll have to practice a bit to figure out what’s the best hand position to get a straight swing every time.”
Have you noticed any side effects on your real golf game? In other words does swinging a controller at nothing mess things up when you try to swing a club at something?
With the Wii sports golf, instead of looking down at the imaginary ball on the floor, I found myself focused on the power meter on the TV!!! I could just see me looking at the pin instead of the ball when getting ready to tee off from a par 5 in real life. Oh the dilemma that I face now that I have a Wii!!!!
