Guide to multi-cam editing inside FCP < 11:31:07 PM>.

Steve Martin over at kenstone.net has put together an in-depth guide that tackles the process of multi-camera editing in Apple's Final Cut Pro. The guide covers the basics of syncing up your cameras with the help of a time code generator or clapboard. Also covered is the process of capturing and setting up your footage for easy editing inside FCP. The guide covers a number of other common issues that come along with multi-cam editing and is a must read for anyone new to the process.

Use a Linksys router to extend an AirPort network < 11:30:54 PM>.

I had an old Linksys WRT54GS router that I wasn't using, and because of the way my house is set up, I needed to put my AirPort Extreme Base Station somewhat far from my home office. This was a problem for two reasons: first, I had a relatively weak signal in my office, and second, because I have a network attached storage system and an Ethernet-based printer in my office that I'd wanted to keep there. I knew that the AirPort Express would accommodate this setup, but since I already had the Linksys -- which doesn't have an audio out or a USB port, like the Express, but which does have four ethernet ports -- I thought it was worth trying.
