I've used VLC to transcode (you can has batch mode from the command prompt), but I don't think Prores is on the menu there.  Since I don't know FC, this may be a stupid question: why must you have prores, can't you use the intermediate mp4 you're creating?

I'd also expect the camera's manfuacturer(s) should provide an app or a codec that could herlp you.

Ah, Bollywood.  Brings me to a story...there's a Hindi video store up in Darien or Downer Grove tha tI drove by a few times, unitl I finally had to go in.  So I asked them if they had any movies in english.  Blank stares.  So I followed up with, "What about dubbedin english?"  Eye rolls, some veiled hostility.  "Sub-titlesd?"  So they dumped a pan of curried veg on my shirt and threw me out.  No lie.

Fucking cowboys in space.  Possibly the earliest use of CG in a television series.  Wicked awesome end title theme.  Let's Ride.

Ah, crap, can one of you AV kids fix my embed code?

Sir Broderick as Ferris Bueller

I guess it would either help out Ryan with his mash-up(s) or totally steal his thunder...it would make it easier for "us" to string together clips of shows (with or without the various coordinated video) to make you guys sound smarter or stupider as our whims dictate.  I can already hear a 3 minute piece of, "things Teague shouted from the bathroom," not to mention the, "Trey wins the argument," montage.

Not sure how much more than a text database it could be, though... are there any widgets or apps that make cloud-based audio editing possible? That'd be the extreme of my tech-nerdy inspiration.

EDIT!
156ish in the outro:  You'll PLOTZ how many hours of DIF there are online ("All of them")

I may have bitten off too much. I'll definietly get T2 finished up today, but the responsible thing is for me to give up my last two...I'll still try, but my free time now through Monday is scarce.  Got Dark City written out, can type it up later.

That leaves FMJ and Alien free for the taking.

Team America is in the Reports thread, 5 minutes in the future...

I know everyone's getting sick of hearing about it, but I'm going to add my voice to the clamor for the Disney classic "Mary Poppins."  If you've ever met a smokestack maintenance engineer, you know this movie is to them as "Caddyshack" is to golf course wildlife.  Also, Teague's recent tube-whoring musical extravaganza has lodged the Sweep song in my head for the last two days.

It's official.
