October 14, 2005 at 7:25 am in reply to: combing HDV and digibeta on a small system without a digi deck etc?????If it is a dual 877 G4 or higher it can handle 8-bit uncompressed. All you need is either anotehr internal SATA drive, external SATA Raid, or External FW 800 drive (G-Raid) and a FW 800 card. You are gonna need this if you are attempting to do this project. Being digibeta footage, and the client wanting a digibeta master, making it all DV is a pretty bad way of going about it. 8-bit uncompressed is your best bet.
And what you can do with your HDV material is capture it at HDV resolution, then convert it to 8-bit by either dropping it in the timeline and rendering, or exporting it with FCP or quicktime to 8-bit. Or rent an HDV deck and capture 8-bit thru your friends capture card.
What does he have, BTW?

October 14, 2005 at 6:22 am in reply to: combing HDV and digibeta on a small system without a digi deck etc?????Capture both sources at the same resolution…8-bit or 10-bit uncompressed. You might need to rent an HDV deck for this, but you should have your friend capture all the footage, digibeta and HDV at 8-bit uncompressed (that is really all you need) and then edit both formats in the same timeline flawlessly.

A fast succession of flash bulbs can be represented really well on TV, and that rapid succession of flashes, viewed on a TV, has been known to cause seizures to people who have epilepsy.
We had to have Visual Effects of a flickering tube of energy changed because of this.
it is a WELL known issue.

Should be very easy. No need to go to 4 first…FCP 4.5 is a full version in it’s own right.

I have been link the color correction options that Magic Bullet Editors have. But they cannot convert 30i to 24P. Really Nattress is the way to go there.

You need to have 1 frame of each half second for a smooth time lapse. Right now you are showing 15 frames and that is why it is jerky.
Does the camera shoot 1 frame at a time? YOu might have to take your shot and ramp up the speed (APPLE-J) and get rid of the extraneous frames.
Or lay down one frame at a time from each 15 frame chunk. But that is tiresome.

Open the Disk Utility and repair permissions.
Download FCP Rescue and trash the preferences.

Yeah…mere hours (2 I think) after I posted that I found this:
H.264 video: up to 768 Kbps,
320 x 240,
30 frames per sec.,
Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats
MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 mbps,
480 x 480,
30 frames per sec.,
Simple Profile with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formatsBut test it. WHich requires getting the new iPod. “Darn it Honey, I need to get a NEW iPod now. Man!”

And people are already asking “How do I encode something and put it on the ipod?”
Sheesh…HOURS after it is announced.

Because why…that is what I tell my kids.
Because exporting Quicktime Movie, self contained using timeline settings is lossless. no compression…just a file transfer. Quicktime Compression does just that…compresses. Even if you chose DV/NTSC, it compresses it. Export a lossless movie, and then iDVD will convert that to the file type that plays back on your DVD player.
