You can do other things, though, like e-mail and web. Just nothing inside FCP. Plus I'd stay away from anything that is too taxing on the computer. The...
Hi, everyone, I was in the middle of rendering a very long sequence in an Uncompressed SD project. I had chopped the sequence into quarters and had competed...
As long as you haven't re-saved the timeline in the un-rendered state, I have found that you can sometimes reconnect the rendered files (in the render folder)....
Unfortunately, I think it WAS saved after the drive was remounted. But why, WHY should it work this way? Now I have over 50GB of useless render files that FCP...
Maybe, in the Autosave Vault you'll find a version that tries to reconnect to some of the renders. ... [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
David, This doesn't answer your questions I'm afraid, but on a tangent... How can you possibly have an SD sequence that takes 2 days to render? You aren't...
David, ... It works this way because you resaved it. By doing so you have told the system that previous renders are now invalid because there is newer, updated...
The only option is to move the media of the actual render files (if they still exist) to a separate folder and import that folder into FCP. Now manually place...
I'm not exactly sure about the logic of how the render files are organized and labeled, but if you poke through the folder, you will find both short snippets...
One of my big hopes for FCS3 is that they expand what is supported by "background processes" so that we can be editing while rendering of previews or exports...
from the few times i've looked in there, they do seem to be created and named sequentialy. i think you could easily sort them by name in the FCP browser. if...
Now that all broadcasts are digital, and the image that home television viewers using a converter box (the "lowest common denominator") receive is essentially...
... Action and title safe still give you a bit of insurance that people looking at the images and graphics will see what you intend. Karl Newman Karl Newman...
Keep in mind that "lowest common denominator" would actually be centercut on a very old TV. I've already helped a couple people set up their converter boxes...
Hello all, I require enlightenment regarding MPEG-D10 compression format. I am setting up templates for a client delivering SD NTSC files to a broadcaster. The...
... All broadcasts aren't digital... yet, and there are tons and tons of CRT sets still in use, so YES, title and action safe areas are still valid. Some...
... Sort of to be expected when the stations contract the cheapest labor they can find to create the spots and they get rid of the QC person from engineering...
One other reason to stay "safe" is the concept that we don't read letters, but word shapes. It is easier to read the word shapes when surrounded by margins....
Most of my work (training) goes on the web now and, one would suppose, be safe raster-to-raster. However, I have noticed that even with web-based stuff, there...
Yes, there is a lot about this situation that seems counterintuitive - to me , too. But without going in to too much detail the situation is thus: The lab on...
Many times the issue especially if the text is cut off is because they simply ran a 4X3 spot through and arc to make it 16X9 and sometimes vice versa. I for...
... Agreed, for all the reasons cited. Take it from someone who works constantly with programming where all of the reasons to ignore title safe apply:...
