Folks, I haven't used Color in awhile. Just fired it up on my new iMAC 27" running Mavericks. I have a second 22" monitor.
All seems fine, but I can only preview the scopes. I cannot preview the video itself.
Poking around and noticing other issues, people are saying it could be related to my video card.
How can I use Color in Mavericks?
Color is designed to be used with a video IO card, like the kinds AJA, BlackMagic Design and Matrox make. Do you have any of those on your system? Because the video preview interface in Color is highly innacurate.
And this might be a victim of obselence...an app discontinued 3 years ago by Apple not working on their latest OS.
Hey...anyone else have Mavericks on their system and FCS 3? Does Color work for you all?
Thanks Shane.
I know, I know. FCP 7 Color is old news!
I tried installing DaVinci Resolve, but my video card is only 512MB and cannot run it. (Unbelievable, since I've got a 2013 iMac with 3TB fusion drive, 24GB RAM, thunderbolt SSD and external scratch disks!)
May need to grade in After Effects via roundtrip from FCP 7. Bleh.
FCP 7 Color + Mavericks = No video preview
