Splitting Clips at Scene Changes in FCP with miniDV media

You can quickly break a long clip into segments by activating auto-detect clip scenes and create a new clip for each different scene (that is, when you stopped and started the camera for a scene change) double click on a clip in the Browser so it appears in the Viewer. go to the Final Cut Pro Menu-->Mark-->DV Start/Stop Detect now Final Cut will place markers on the clip wherever a scene change occurs.

Splitting Clips at Scene Changes in FCP with HD media

When you capture HDV, Final Cut Pro automatically generates a new media file at the point of each scene break. That is, you'll have a lots of small files (it can be useful to make some space once you realize what's not needed).

Install Final Cut Pro on a G3

Insert the FCP 4.5 or FCP 4 installer DVD Copy the invisible Installer folder to the hard drive (tinker tool show invisible items -- or with terminal) Navigate into the Packages folder inside of this folder on your hard drive Open each package (LiveType.pkg, FinalCutPro.mpkg, etc) and delete the file InstallationCheck inside of the Contents > Resources folders for each .pkg or .mpkg Install as usual with the FinalCutPro4.mpkg from the folder copied to the hard drive. After installation and before launching any of the programs open each application package (Final Cut Pro, Compressor, Soundtrack, etc.) that was installed inside the Applications and edit the Info.plist file inside of the Contents folder. Delete the lines and tags that would prevent running on your machine. For example, to get it to run on a G3/300, you would delete or simply change them to match your system: <key>AELRequiredCPUType</key> <string>G4</string> <key>AELMinimumCPUSpeedSingle</key> <string>350</string> as well as the AGP key and value to install updates to FCP or any associated application via Software Update, you better to tell Software Update to download the updates only without installing. Then repeat the procedures outlined above for the updater packages (deleting the InstallationCheck files from within the package). After you install the updates, you may need to edit the actual application's Info.plist file again, as the updaters will restore the deleted lines to their default values of requiring a G4 and AGP slot --eof--
