• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Final Cut Pro questions

I have some footage of a sunset that I want to fast forward and reverse to use as a transition in a project I'm working on with Final Cut Pro. Does anybody know how to manipulate the footage like that? So for example, the sun would go up and back down again. I've looked through Final Cut Pro but can't seem to find anything. Any help would be appreciated

Thanks,
Tyler

You've got this posted in the wrong topic - you may want to request to have it moved to the movies and videos topic.

You'll want to specify which version of FCP you're using because the process may be different between FCP6/7 and FCPX. In FCP6/7 you can just set the clip to play in reverse (I haven't had a huge need for it, if I recall correctly, it's available via a right click menu for the clip on the timeline and selecting change speed)
