Final Cut Studio: Optimizing PCI Express card performance
earn about PCI Express (PCIe) slot configuration for Mac Pro computers
manufactured before 2008. Mac Pro (Early 2008) computers and later
automatically configure bandwidth of the PCIe slots.

Final Cut Pro: Improving performance using an AJA Kona card with a Mac Pro
if you use an AJA Kona card for video capture and playback with a Mac Pro,
there are a number of factors you should consider to enhance performance.
The most common issues and solutions are...

Final Cut Studio: Encoders not seen in export options
With QuickTime 7.4 or later installed, some older encoders (codecs)
may appear to be missing in the export options in applications
that export QuickTime files, such as Final Cut Pro or Compressor
or from the export options in QuickTime Player Pro.

Final Cut Pro: Dropped Frames--Causes and Solutions
Dropped frames in Final Cut Pro are usually caused by hardware
configuration issues. This document covers a number of reasons
dropped frames may occur, and ways to address them.

Final Cut Pro and Final Cut Express: Application-specific key functions with the aluminum Apple Keyboard (2007)
The aluminum Apple Keyboard (2007) includes additional media keys
and newly-labeled keys which may seem to replace the functionality
of certain application-specific function keys, such as the F10 function
"Overwrite Edit" in Final Cut Pro and Final Cut Express.

Final Cut Pro 6.0.2: Holding the Option key invokes snapping
In Final Cut Pro 6.0.2, snapping may become enabled when it's
not desired if you hold the Option key while dragging an edit
point in the Timeline. In regular use, holding the Option key
while dragging the audio or video of a linked item allows you
to trim either the audio or the video of a clip independently,
without having to unlink that clip.

Final Cut Pro: Render required when outputting to tape
On PowerPC-based Macs and when the Video Scopes window is open,
Final Cut Pro may unexpectedly require rendering before outputting to tape.

Final Cut Pro: Disabling visibility and its effects on rendering
When working with multiple tracks in Final Cut Pro, you may find it useful
to turn off visibility for some onscreen elements to focus on a particular
area of detail in a sequence.

Final Cut Pro: Tips for archiving memory card-based media
Standard tapeless workflows involve reformatting and reusing the memory
cards used for shooting. Before reformatting the cards, it's prudent to
make a backup copy of your media on hard disk, whether for safety
or for recapture later on. This article discusses guidelines for reliable backup.

Final Cut Pro: "This project is unreadable or may be too new for this version of Final Cut"
When you open certain Final Cut Pro projects, you may see the
following message: This project is unreadable or may be too new
for this version of Final Cut.

Final Cut Pro: Escape key may not end HDV capture
When you perform a Capture Now to acquire HDV media in
Final Cut Pro and the capture passes the area of recorded
HDV video at the end of a tape, pressing the Escape key
may not end the capture

Final Cut Pro 6: About the Render All command
The choices in the Sequence > Render All submenu will
render all the clips in a sequence (Both, Video, or Audio)
that correspond to the render categories that are enabled
(listed with checkmarks).

Final Cut Pro, Final Cut Express: Troubleshooting FireWire using direct connections
When using Final Cut Pro or Final Cut Express with a FireWire device,
you may occasionally encounter unexpected behavior with video,
audio, or device control.

Final Cut Pro, Final Cut Express: Unexpected quit with Panasonic HDC-SD9 AVCHD
Final Cut Pro and Final Cut Express may quit unexpectedly
when using the Log and Transfer window to preview AVCHD
media from a Panasonic HDC-SD9 camcorder.

Final Cut Studio: Kernel Panic with Kona 3 cards on Mac Pro
If your Mac Pro has Mac OS X 10.5.2 Leopard and a Kona 3 PCI Express
(PCIe) card, a kernel panic may occur in some unsupported PCIe
slot configurations. Specifically, this may occur if the PCIe slot
hosting the Kona 3 card is configured as an x1 lane slot.

Final Cut Pro 6: May quit unexpectedly when transferring from multiple P2 volumes
On computers with Mac OS X 10.4, Final Cut Pro 6 may quit
unexpectedly while you're using the Log and Transfer
window to transfer media from Panasonic P2 cards.
If you have multiple P2 volumes mounted simultaneously,
the likelihood of this happening may increase.

Final Cut Pro, Final Cut Express: Computer and camera show different points in time while capturing HDV
When you capture footage from an HDV camera using Final Cut Pro,
the image displayed in the capture window may lag slightly behind the
image displayed on the camera. This is normal and does not indicate any
issue with Final Cut Pro or your camera.

Final Cut Studio: Some AU filters are not available in earlier Mac OS versions
If you create a project using Final Cut Studio on a computer with Mac OS X 10.5
Leopard and then open that project in Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, in some cases you
may see a message like the following (as seen in Final Cut Pro):...

Final Cut Pro: Larger-than-HD ProRes clips may not play smoothly
On computers with Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, clips in the Apple ProRes 422
format may not play back smoothly in Final Cut Pro if they are larger
than HD size in dimension.

Final Cut Pro: Audio sync in PAL video sequences
Imported audio-only files in a sequence with PAL video may drift out of sync in some cases.
