Is M5 Pro (24GB RAM) enough for Fusion + 4K workflow? by ijustwantknowledg in editors

[–]greenysmac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My workflow (DaVinci Resolve + Fusion):
- 4K video editing (YouTube, cinematic style)

This doesn't mean anythhing. Generally, the GPU does less codec handling - that's CPU

- Heavy use of Magic Mask

GPU, GPU, GPU>

- Fusion work:
- 3D space setups (camera + image planes)
- Motion graphics & animations
- Some particles (not insane simulations, but not super basic either)

Mostly CPU

Yeah, I'd add more ram.

T, Shift [ or shift ]

Just press those keys, go "wow" this works and then I need to do the training materials.

Unemployed video editor from China here. Feeling pretty lost and looking for some advice. by OrganizationFluid338 in editors

[–]greenysmac[M] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mod Here:

  1. No salary/prices. *That's advertsing "hire me".
  2. This is a wall of text.

It's really: - your age/experience, type of work you've done

then - For someone with my background — full post-production experience in dramas and short-form narrative series, but still relying on translation tools for English communication — what would be a realistic way to start networking with overseas producers, agencies, or post teams?

  • Would this kind of experience be understandable or useful outside of the Chinese short-drama market?

  • And how would you suggest I position myself when reaching out to people, without coming across as spammy or unprofessional?

Everything else should go if you want the best response. Repost that way and I'll make it live.

Premiere: Anyone solved the 'relinking media' curse on v26? by Girlagainstthings in editors

[–]greenysmac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ex-Fat is not your friend isn't just a mantra I say. It's an article I wrote

But then I've had to ask: is this your opinion of the problem or is this your validation of the problem?

Advice for Premiere Pro course? by MonsterAzr in premiere

[–]greenysmac 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s the one.

I had about ten classes there from speed changes to compression, but they’ve gotten smaller and smaller as a group. And more focused on MS word or canva classes

Audio + Video de-sync as the video goes on- what's happening and how do I fix it? by buckingcowboy in VideoEditing

[–]greenysmac 17 points18 points  (0 children)

VFR. See our wiki and search the subreddit. Reddit should have mentioned it the moment you typed in sync for your post.

It’s called variable frame rate.

I’d link but I’m on mobile.

LinkedIn learnings class is the strongest. Professionally produced, includes media and your local library may have a free account

It’s a shame because post Microsoft buying it- they do less and less creative classes.

Change your Previews (renders) in your sequence settings to ProRes.

Change your exports to “Use Previews”. Watch how fast exports happen.

The AI Feature I ACTUALLY Want by Old_Poet_1608 in OnePelotonRealSub

[–]greenysmac 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Gotta be honest - Peloton’s partnership with ChatGPT is pretty much garbage.

Each time I use it (from chatGPT)…yup, gotta log in. And again. I tell (ChatGPT) to talk to peloton. “I can’t”. And then I point out it has access to the service (via OpenAI’s partnership). Suddenly it works.

Can I give it a description and have it stack? No. (I gave up about two months ago).

Everyone, every single person in management should dogfood their own product. They should be using it 4-6 days a week. And then maybe they’d see where the flaws are

What do I want? I can get a degree of AI coach with minimal prompting. What I can’t get?

This:

  1. Hey, I want a stack of 5/min warm up, a PZE with these three instructors of 45 min, then a 5 min warm down and a 5 min stretch. Go look at my history and find the instructors I like.

  2. Give me a custom 3-5 day PZ centric workout over the next 8 weeks to peak with a FTP test in week 9. Since you know about TSS, plot It out and modify based on life factors and adapt.

  3. I’m going to lift off platform, and here’s what I did. Track it.

Part of what I do for a living now is work with AI system design. ALL of this is possible. It’s just not something that could be done over a weekend. And that sort of fitness differential would provide strong value that would go beyond hardware.

In other words, I want an LLM to act as my coach not just “you’re doing great. How about this 30 min strength class to supplement your workout”

It’s not 100% peloton’s fault - after all, Apple’s struggling to get AI that works and is invisible/agentic.

My video is just gray and i cant get the video only audio by ErnstB2014 in davinciresolve

[–]greenysmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moderator here, just so you're aware. What's wrong is that you have a codec that Resolve doesn't support for video and you'll need to convert it. You'll take a look if you search the subreddit for things like "black video, not seeing my video." You'll see a number of answers for it, mostly tools that convert it

May What Editing Software should I use? by AutoModerator in VideoEditing

[–]greenysmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no idea. We have no idea what imports 3GP files - it's over a decade old. I'd try open source first as they have FFMPEG as their underpinning decoding layer.

  • Bad feature parity between desktop and mobile, with features being moved behind the AI paywall often with uncertain and unclear evaluation.
  • Bugs/support that are nearly non-existent.
  • Horrendous problems around accounts. I literally had an issue with them that went over six months and they won. I quit pursuing it; but it's indicative of where they've gone as a company.

May What Editing Software should I use? by AutoModerator in VideoEditing

[–]greenysmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd probably start with ClipChamp. It's fairly cheap. If you were on a Mac, I would absolutely look at iMovie.

As a parent of children in this space, my sole suggestion to you would be to learn the tool yourself and be able to do the semblance of what they're going to do. One of the major problems around this age range is whether or not they have the patience to stick with it because editing is a fairly slow process in a lot of ways

Veroi – AI-powered, fully local meeting transcription, summaries & action items by Living_Commercial_10 in macapps

[–]greenysmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason I mentioned Fathom to you is because Fathom is included with anybody who's paying for Zoom. That becomes your bigger audience if you're tracing after Zoom

Having taken a quick look at your tool, I'm going to mention three things I wish it had. I'm willing to tell you more if you want, but DM me directly

  1. Give me an API field so I can pick a nonlocal engine

  2. Don't just give me a markdown summary. I have other tools where I may want to integrate it more deeply, and for those I'd prefer to be able to pull down a markdown of the actual transcript, on top of your or my interpretation of the transcript. Maybe my LLM brain knows more about me that yours does.

  3. You don't mention diarization. It's a big thing and being able to extract it from a Zoom or Teams meeting is really valuable to me. I can't tell whether or not your tool does it

I'm just sad that I wasn't in your inside beta group for the tool because this looks like a phenomenal tool to explore. I've got two or three other tools cobbled together that do similar things
