Shane,
My response was to this line... "worth noting is that FCP6 now natively supports previewing HDV footage over firewire as a downconverted DV stream" ...Not the MXO use. This line sounds to me like you can hook up a firewire camera to your production monitor and FCP6 will output downconverted SD to it so you can color correct your hdv timline based on how it looks in an sd color space. I have not heard this is possible so I wanted to know where that person read this information. Thanks, Scott |

If you could color correct in SD space.... It'll be close enough...all these older dvds that are being watched on upscaling dvd players were all color corrected for an SD color space and they look fine to pretty much everyone. The HD installed customer base isn't going to be prevalent for years....I don't even personally know anyone, who isn't a videographer, who has bought a high def player yet....hd-dvd or blu-ray... So color correcting in SD is fine for now... Cheers, Scott Last edited by Scott Shama; May 9th, 2007 at 02:44 AM. |

Would the MXO work with Apple's color program? I read that Color is picky about what it can output to. Any ideas?

It's no secret Scott. It's in the "Final Cut Pro 6 New Features" documentation, on page 8: External Video Monitoring You can now output to external video interfaces whose settings don’t match those of your sequence. Here are some examples of some of the possibilities: • DV or HDV sequence output to an SDI signal on a third-party interface • An uncompressed NTSC or PAL sequence output to a DV FireWire output • An HDV sequence output to a DV FireWire output Sequence and output formats must have compatible frame rates. For example, sequences with a frame rate of 60, 30, or 24 fps can be output to a 30 fps device, but not to a 25 or 50 fps device. Also, when an output device does not match your sequence settings, additional real-time processing is required. This means that segments that already require a lot of real-time processing power may need to be rendered to play back. |

I'll have to get FCP 6 and COLOR and test that out. But, that won't happen for a bit yet.

Why wouldn't Color work with AJA or BDM cards? How would people view their image on an external monitor? You can't color correct without that ability, so it MUST work with color.
MXO...again, I won't be getting FCP ST2 for a while...so...sorry. |

Yup, my bad. Color won't work if your card's default destination is set to your Mac desktop.
I believe this is the thread I misremembered. http://forums.creativecow.net/cgi-bi...nivpostid=1348 -A |
