At the college and most everywhere else, the OS of choice is Mac. I sure would love to get a mac and final cut pro, but I know my family simply cannot afford paying $4,000 dollars or more for a decent editing system. Right now I am considering making a 'Hackintosh' by building a powerful PC for around $1,000 dollars and installing Mac OS X on it, the power of that computer would probably cost $6,000 Mac dollars.</p> <p>The next issue after that is obtaining the actual video editing suite. $999 (student discount) for Final Cut Pro is way over mine and my parent's budget after already buying a new computer. Is it worth it for the full suite? Or should I simply get Express? There are many labs open, probably with the full suite installed, in the video production building that are open 24/7. So maybe Express would do it's job for me? There are many factors to consider and I am still unsure if I should purchase windows or mac, get Final Cut Pro or Final Cut Express, resort to pirating? Who knows?So I am here to ask your opinions! OS X or Windows? Should I buy an actual mac or make a hackintosh? Pro or Express? Is it worth it to pirate it? What do you, yourself use? Are there any cheap alternatives that I am unaware of? Any advice would be appreciated!</p> <p>Also, I am new the Videomaker forums, is this is the wrong category, go ahead and move it!</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/final-cut-express-capture-question#post-41893 Wed, 03 Dec 2008 15:13:26 +0000 chikers 41893@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Is there a way in FCE to just list the in/out time codes and let it capture all of them at the same time?</p> <p>I have been marking one, then it captures. Then I mark the next one and then it captures...etc. I usually have a shot list with the time codes listed, I just want to type them in there and then come back when it has all been done.</p> <p>I hope that makes sense. Any help would be greatly appreciated. </p>
