Thanks for the hint – the device looks amazing!

LaCie Rugged 500 GB 5400rpm via Firewire 800. 7200 should be better, of course, but I think 5400 is enough.

What other settings should I check?

Thanks!

[Walter Biscardi] “That’s a problem with your media array, not the iMac. We’re cutting a documentary right now in ProRes using a 2 year old iMac with over 200 hours of 720p ProRes. We’ve also cut 1080i ProRes on there with no problems. We’re running a Final Share SAN connected to that machine.”

OK, thank you. Could you, please explain what ‘a problem with my media array is’? I’ve googled ‘media array problem’ and found one of your earlier posts, but you have not described how to check if my media array is properly set up.

Thanks again!

The problem is, that files are Apple ProRes 422 (Proxy), 1920 × 1080. In Uni we have IMacs and FCP doesn’t even try to play them in real time (even though RT is set to unlimited). I’ve managed to edit DVCPROHD 720p online on a low-end MacBook white before – no problem.

I know how to convert files, but how do I change them to high-res ones after the editing is finished, without affecting the sequence (fades, etc. ) ?

Is there an option that will force FCP to play work with ProRes online, without giving me that Unrendered screen?

Thank you!

And, just in case if you use Panasonic P2 cameras, it’s possible to sync timecode on multiple cameras through a Firewire cable.

Jeremy,

Your presentation was brilliant! I am using a P2 workflow (HVX-200) and what you’ve shown deeply amazed me! Thank you very much!

Aaron,

If MXF4Mac will not happen to be free, I’ll probably have to resort to manual editing, so thanks for your hint!

Thank you Aaron,

So, let’s presume that footage with 14 hour timecode had been imported into the sequence and it lies somewhere at 01:00:00:00. How do I sync it with sound from a field recorder?

Thanks!
