Re: G5 memory for AE - Max it out? ECC vs non-ECC?

i don't think either of the 2.3ghz g5s were quad-core (two dual core cpus)... so if you only have 2 cores, the most ram ae will be able to use is just under 8gb with 'render multiple frames simultaneously' enabled...

photoshop is a 32-bit application so it can only address 3gb of ram. note there is a slight difference in the amount of ram that a 'foreground' process can use vs. a 'background' process. on osx a 32-bit foreground process...

Re: Why can't AE users just buy the FCP ProRes Codec?!

it really shouldn't be any trouble to choose a different codec when they export an mov from fcp... if they are already choosing export, they just need to choose the codec you ask them for. or they could provide...

it would also help to know which version of ae you are using (as seen in the splash/about ae screen, like 8.0.2) and the versions of the third-party effects that are giving you trouble... but for starters, quit ae, then hold...

hi anita, there's no compression in the targa format, so you won't see generational loss... but i believe targa is only 8bpc, so the 16-32bpc color data will converted to 8bpc. while that's not the end of the world, if...

ahhh I see what you mean... thats the type of position I would like to work myself into. Right now, the work I do is pretty much shooting and editing our features that go out to Comcast, FSN and TVG. I occasionally get to make commercials which are really fun and more up my alley... and opens for segments I produce. I don't know how much editing work I'll have once the season ends though.

Do you guys have any positions open or opening up in the next couple of months? Perhaps apprenticeships?

hey topher - glad i could i help... i've never used any horse race footage here, but i would only see the footage if it needed effecting (i'm purly a graphics/effects guy here). if there have been some spots that have been done with emerald downs, the editors must have handled it...

what's the work like at emerald downs?

Hey Kevin... thanks for the help with the Avid to AE stuff... I learned a lot. I saw that you work at KCPQ 13 in Seattle... do you ever end up working with the footage that I send over there from Emerald Downs?
