How can I use the SmoothCam filter in Final Cut Pro with MP4 Files?
The SmoothCam filter can only be applied to files in Final Cut Pro with a TypeCode of 'MooV' (the TypeCode of QuickTime MOV Files)
To change the TypeCode of the MP4 File with Calibrated{Q} MP4-EX Import v1.5, please do the following:
1. Set the Auto-Change TypeCode in the CalibratedQMP4EXOptions.app to 'MooV'
2. Make sure that your MP4 files that you wish to use with the SmoothCam Filter are 'unlocked'. You can check if a MP4 File is 'unlocked' by right-clicking on the MP4 file in Finder and choosing 'Get Info'. In the General Tab of the 'Get Info' window you will see a checkbox labeled 'Locked' - this needs to be unchecked.
3. Now whenever Calibrated{Q} MP4-EX Import is used to open a MP4 File, it will automatically change the TypeCode of the file to 'MooV' which will allow you to use the SmoothCam Filter.
