    Sample-based Music Clearance

    So I've looked all over and I can't find any information on this. I didn't know where to post the question, so I came here... I have a short film that I'm submitting to festivals now.

    NTSC Monitor for DVCProHD w/out HD Deck

    I am trying to set up an external NTSC monitor for a project shot at 720p on the HVX. I don't however, own an HD deck. All I have is a firewire camcorder that I use as an analog/digital media converter for SD projects. Is it possible for FCP6 to downconvert the external video so that I can...

    Capturing through an external drive?

    I've been capturing by chaining a camera to my external firewire drive through FCP 5 for a while now, but I recently purchased avid xpress for OSX and it won't recognize my deck unless it's plugged in directly to the firewire port on my g4 powerbook laptop. I read somewhere that avid has issues...
