Can I import RMVB into iMovie on Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks ?

This is an article about how to convert rmvb file to AIC codec for importing to iMovie on Mac OS X Mavericks, along with the introduction of  RMVB Converter for Mavericks.

RMVB,short for a variable bitrate extension of the RealMedia multimedia container format developed by RealNetworks. RMVB is typically used for multimedia content stored locally. Files using this format have the file extension ".rmvb".

RMVB files are extremely popular for distributing Asian content, especially Chinese television episodes and movies. For this reason, they have become noticeably present (though not entirely popular, partly due to their incompatibility with other media players) on file sharing platforms such as BitTorrent, eDonkey and Gnutella. So RMVB files can be great for online downloads.

Mavericks brings more iOS features into the MAC along with other tweaks including iBooks, Apple Maps, Finder Tabs, and a number of other time-saving enhancements. However, it becomes even harder for you to get RMVB files into video editing program like iMovie on Mavericks due to the unsupported codec. You may know pretty well that iMovie can only import DV, MPEG-4, MPEG-4 and M4V, etc, but iMovie can't recognize RMVB naturally.

If you have problems with importing Canon C500 MXF to Final Cut Pro 6/7 on Mac, please follow this post below to know the esay solution to convert Canon C500 mxf footage to multi-track apple prores. 

 

Canon has officially announced the EOS C500, the professional 4K video camera output that it promised at the NAB trade show in April. A continuation of the concept of the C300, it can capture Raw 4K video footage and offers frame rates of up to 120fps in compressed 4K. It also captures 2K footage (2,048 x 1,080 pixels) at 12-bit, with 4:4:4 Y'CbCr chroma sub-sampling for high colour resolution.

With this professional EOS C500, you may have recorded many footage and want to do some editing work with FCP 6/7 to get better video effect. And you will find the following problem:

Q1: Using a card reader to download my footage shot with my Canon EOS C500 into FCP. My FCP 7 crashed while opening. If I am using Canon XF utility to backup the files, find out they are not readable? What's that? I am sure the videos are playable on C500. So strange. Any insight here how can I import these files into FCP 7?

Q2: I want to extract a small clip from my C500 and edit it in FCP 6, is there anyway to keep all my audio tracks? 

I believe you this is a common issue many new Canon users may meet, and most of them will choose to install a Canon C500 XF plugin for FCP. But unfortunately, at last they get little success: some don't want to upgrade, some has audio problems, and some may be confused with the complex procedure.

Then to make it smooth and easy to edit Canon C500 MXF to FCP 6/7 on Mac (including Mavericks 10.9), you can switch to a third party tool - Pavtube iMixMXF. I think it's much easier for me. It can not only convert Canon EOS C500 MXF .mxf to FCP 6/7 best editing codec Apple prores, but also has editing functions and unique multi-track preserving feature.

Convert Muti-track MXF files from Canon C500 to FCP 6/7 for editing

Step 3. Adjust video and audio parameters. (Optional)

Click "Settings" button to customize the output video and audio settings by yourself. But if you are not good at it, you'd better use the default parameters, they will ensure you a good balance between file size and image quality basically. You can change the resolution, bitrate, frame rate as you need.

Step 4. When above steps finished, you can click "Convert" button to start transcoding Canon C500 MXF to mult-track ProRes MOV for Final Cut Pro 6/7 with a super fast speed.

With the excellent multi-track MXF to FCP Converter, you can work with Canon C500 MXF files in FCP 6/7 on Mac Mavericks with multi-track preserving and with best video and audio quality as you want.

Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera to Begin Shipping in 3-4 Days, 4K Camera Nearly Ready

A few days ago, we caught a glimpse of some more footage from the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera, and it was quite excellent, to say the least. At that time we still had no idea whether or not the camera was going to start shipping anytime soon, and most of us believed that it probably wouldn’t. However, at Blackmagic’s LA event earlier today, the company announced that the Pocket Cinema Camera would begin to ship within 3-4 days in limited quantities and that the 4K Production Camera still needed more work before it begins to ship. 

Here’s the tweet from Ogy Stoilov at MRP Films which confirms the news from the event:




[Update]: Although the above tweet says that the 4K camera should be shipping by September, a source at Blackmagic Design has just informed us that the work on the camera should be completed within 2-3 weeks, and that it should be shipping sometime in August.

While I’m sure that some of you are absolutely thrilled about this development, it doesn’t seem likely that most folks will receive their pre-ordered camera for at least another couple of weeks or so. If previous shipping procedures are anything to go by, the “small quantities” of Pocket Cameras will be distributed somewhat evenly to resellers around the world, then they will slowly begin to trickle out into the film community from there.


Of course, the camera that many of us are waiting for, the Blackmagic Production Camera 4K, will not meet its estimated shipping date (not a big surprise considering we have yet to see any footage). We don’t know the exact reason for the delay, but since it’s another brand new sensor, it has to be properly calibrated to get the most out of it, and that’s probably the part that isn’t finished yet (since the camera was physically working at NAB 2013).

With that said, getting the Pocket Camera shipped this close to the projected shipping date, even if the quantities are limited, is a victory for Blackmagic Design, especially considering the ordeal with the original BMCC. I, for one, think that it’s a sign that Blackmagic is finally working out the kinks in its production model and gearing up to meet the massive demand for these cameras.

What do you guys think? Are you excited to see the BMPCC make its way into the wild? Is the fact that Blackmagic is closer to meeting their projected shipping dates a good sign for their future as a camera production company? Let us know in the comments!

Hasselblad unveils new Stellar compact camera modeled on Sony RX100

Hasselblad has just unveiled the new Stellar compact camera on the company's website. While Imaging Resource has not received any official announcement on the camera, which appears to be based on the Sony RX100 but with some distinctive exterior modifications, the Stellar has its own page on the Hasselblad site with images and some info on the camera. 

"The Hasselblad Stellar redefines quality with its elegantly designed aluminium body and metal operation controls," the Stellar page reads. "Only the finest materials are used to craft the ergonomic handgrip, making it a beautifully powerful, pocket-sized camera."

Hasselblad's strategy of sprucing up Sony cameras must be paying off -- that would explain Photo Rumors' apparent leak of the Stellar, a Hasselblad take on the RX100. The already high-end compact cam will reportedly switch to a tan metallic body and offer several choices of exotic grip material, including carbon fiber and padouk wood. There's no mention of functional upgrades over the Sony original, though. As with the Lunar, we're more likely to see a price hike instead -- Photo Rumors claims the Stellar should launch on July 26th for between $1,600 to $3,200, which would limit it to particularly well-heeled photographers.

FS700U 1080/60p AVCHD shootings:

The Sony NEX-FS700U Super 35 Camcorder (Body Only) is a fully professional large-sensor video camera.
