Re: [FCP-L] field dominance

 

NTSC DV is always lower, but NTSC D1 can be lower or upper field first
depending on the hardware used to capture your footage.

[FCP-L] FCP 7.01 broke my Desktop Preview!

 

Not really doing to much important at the moment,
So i upgraded to the latest 7.01 on one machine.

Now i get very clunky playback on Digital Cinema Desktop Preview.

Footage and sequences are ProRes PAL.

While the image plays perfectly in the viewer or canvas,
it has a "Dropping frames" look on the Desktop Preview.

When i turn mirroring OFF, i get NO payback at all,
just a frozen frame!

I trashed my prefs (that's trashed, not restored from a backup)
and the problem persists.

Guess i'll have to try a re-instal, but wont get to that for a while,
so just wanted to post a warning.

If anyone else is game, or has already run the update, could you check this, please?

thanks,
Nick

FCP can handle either upper or lower no problem.

As a general rule if it's in a 'DV codec' sequence then make it lower
fields - otherwise stick with upper fields.
So as you have stated Apple ProRes 422 go with upper and if im wrong
ther's a filter in FCP to sort it out.

Re: [FCP-L] Semi OT: monitoring from soundtrack

 

BM user here... Philip is talking about your SYSTEM preferences here!
Go to the Apple menu from the system finder, and select System
Preferences/Sound/Output. From there you should be able to select
Blackmagic Audio from a list of devices.

[FCP-L] Semi OT: monitoring from soundtrack

 

A quick search in the manual didn't tell me the answer, so maybe one
of you can, while I keep looking: Where do I assign the monitoring the
blackmagic card instead of the internal speaker?

This is usually in obvious places and video monitoring is easy to set.
I can even set the monitoring to the bm card while recording, but
normal playback is hidden from me.

FCP can handle either upper or lower no problem.

As a general rule if it's in a 'DV codec' sequence then make it lower
fields - otherwise stick with upper fields.
So as you have stated Apple ProRes 422 go with upper and if im wrong
ther's a filter in FCP to sort it out.
