No, Apple is not going to do anything to replace it. Apple has gotten on this kick of trying to change the world by trying to eliminate disks altogether. Not going to work though. They’ve never supported […]

Michael Couch started the forum topic "Instant Video" question in the group Editors 5 months, 3 weeks ago
Something that is being offered up these days for wedding videos is “Instant Video” (or a few other terms) but what it is, you video the ceremony, then have a highlight video from the ceremony playing at the […]

Michael Couch started the forum topic Blu-Ray burner for Mac – HELP!! in the group DVD Authoring/Replication
I bought an LG Blu Ray burner, and have it hooked up to my Mac. I had a LaCie external DVD burner with Light Scribe, so I swapped the drives. The LG is now in the LaCie enclosure. I did have to get and ATA […]

Michael Couch in the forum topic Audio track slide keystroke & bandsing between 1:20-1:40? in the group Web Video
I’m not seeing the flashing/banding, so maybe something glitchy with YouTube?
On the lighting, I think it looks fine. It looks to me like the camera’s focus was mainly on the strings anyway, so the hands […]

Here’s my take on this – it depends on what you are working with. I prefer to use FCP, but I have a regular client that uses CS5.5. CS5.5 can be like a wrestling match at times, and I’ve had cases where I go […]

Michael Couch started the forum topic Frame rate vs shutter speed in the group Cinematography: 8 months ago
I know this should be something basic, but I still need a little explanation on this one. As I understand it, the “shutter” is only open once per frame. But, if I am shooting at 30 frames per second, and I am all the way down to 1/15 shutter, how can the shutter be open [...]

Michael Couch posted an update in the group Final Cut Pro 7 and before: 9 months ago
I use a MacBook Pro for all of my editing. On the FCP side I’m still back in version 5, but I also use Adobe Premiere CS5 (cough, cough GARBAGE cough cough). Anyway, no problems running either one and it’s nothing unusual for me to have a project in the works being edited, while something else is being encoded with the Adobe version of…[Read more]

Final cut does not output anything live. You can only capture the footage and then edit it.

No, and looking at it more closely it’s a power mic jack.

Michael Couch started the forum topic Sound board feed to camcorder in the group Music: 9 months, 3 weeks ago
I have a Sony HXR-MC50U camcorder, and I’m trying to figure out a safe way to feed audio to it from a sound board for a music shoot. Would it be safe from a regular line out or a headphone out from the soundboard? The other option is using my Sennheiser wireless mic setup, but [...]

Michael Couch started the forum topic Final Cut pro beta test question in the group Final Cut Pro X: 9 months, 3 weeks ago
I’m assuming that since the beta test version of FCP X is 10.0 that after any bugs are fixed the first “real” version will be 10.1. So would I be correct in assuming that if I go ahead and buy the beta test version that it would be a free upgrade to the real working [...]

After my use last night sure enough on the lower setting I have a full hour long clip with no splitting. Bizarre.

Michael Couch posted on the forum topic How import MTS files on thumbdrive into FCP for editing? in the group Editors: 9 months, 3 weeks ago
I’ve been looking into this and from what I’ve read so far it looks like you can’t just drag and drop .MTS files to FCP, but you can import them from the camera the same as you do iMovie. But I’ve also read that if you copy the Private folder whole from the camera to [...]

Michael Couch started the forum topic New Sony camcorder clip problem in the group Editors: 9 months, 3 weeks ago
I just got a pair of Sony HXR-MC50U’s and I’m having a puzzling issue. For some reason after about 16 minutes of recording it starts a new clip. So in other words, if I record continuously (like a wedding) for 32 minutes, I will end up with two clips. The problem is there is at [...]

Michael Couch posted on the forum topic HD video on a DVD in the group DVD Authoring/Replication: 10 months ago
That’s what I thought, and this is something that really just (pause while typing, trying to figure a family friendly term for annoys the living $### out of me) – not that DVD can’t support HD, but that there are videographers that take advantage of this. I’ve recently started my videography business, with my main [...]

Michael Couch posted on the forum topic Can't open – incompatible format?? in the group DVD Studio Pro: 10 months ago
Sorry for the delay. No I have not solved this. In fact it got more bizarre – I’ve a couple projects since where I will drop a movie file, and get the incompatible format error, only to try importing again, and it works fine. I’ve also got a problem now where if I save a [...]

Michael Couch posted on the forum topic Any ideas about what's wrong with Adobe Premiere?? in the group Editors: 10 months ago
Seems the option of un-checking “Use max render quality” is the ticket on this one. Taking a normal amount of time and the final video seems to be top quality. On a related note, I just found something that Adobe did right. In fact I’ve been asking myself for years why Final Cut never did [...]

Michael Couch started the forum topic HD video on a DVD in the group DVD Authoring/Replication: 10 months, 1 week ago
I know that a DVD is not capable of HD resolutions, so since a DVD would be 720×480, is it then just HD video that has been converted down to SD?
