Google Ban My Huawei Android Phone – How Now?

The good news? I don’t have a Huawei phone. The bad news? I bought my kid a Huawei phone and she needs Google for her studies.

On 21st May 2019, Google announced it will stop working with Huawei.

That means no Gmail, no YouTube, and no Google Play Store!

Oh my! Google Play Store is everything!

It’s a trade ban imposed by the US government, AKA Donald Trump.

So what’s that got to do with us living outside of the USA? Also, there are no Huawei phones inside of the USA in the first place!

Here’s a Twitter message from the Google Android team to current Huawei phone uses.

“For Huawei users’ questions regarding our steps to comply w/ the recent US government actions: We assure you while we are complying witthe h all US gov’t requirements, servithe ces like Google Play & security from Google Play Protect will keep functioning on your existing Huawei device.”

Going forward, there is nothing to be concerned about right now as a current Huawei phone user.

Probably we will not get any future Android updates, but that’s not a big issue anyway.

By the way, the latest Android OS update killed the pro video camera features in my Samsung Galaxy S10. So please don’t count on new Android OS updates.

Macbook Air M1 Case

I bought a transparent case for my MacBook Air M1 . It came with a free screen protector, a keyboard cover, and some rubber plugs to cover the ports. Check it out! https://youtu.be/d-wALSd3nn8 I didn't expect the rubber plugs. It was a nice surprise. The case fits snuggly, with access to all the ports. The keyboard cover is almost invisible to the eye. I have no intention to use the screen protector. Why? I need to see the true color of the display for my YouTube videos. ~ Adrian Lee  @Adrian Video Image  The video was recorded on iPhone 12 Pro Max with Filmic Pro app in 4K 60fps and edited with Capcut.

Sony Vegas Pro 8 Tutorial - Multicamera Editing

Sony Vegas Pro 8 makes it easier to edit videos from different cameras right from the timeline. You can capture and edit video for a single scene from 2 or more cameras or for a single scene shot a few times with one camera. Here is a tutorial of a Multicamera Edit of a drama I shot. The drama was acted out four times to the public and being a non-profit organization, the client have budget only for one videographer. For each of the 4 acts, the camcorder (Sony HDR-FX7 High Definition Camcorder) was placed at 4 different positions and shot in various angles. Multicamera edit is accomplished in only 8 steps with the Sony Vegas Pro 8. Step #1: Capture Multicamera Video Clips Use the normal Sony Vegas Video Capture function to capture recordings from each camera. Give each capture filename a unique name.

The message "The storage device Macintosh HD is almost full" appeared when I was editing a video with Final Cut Pro X on my new Apple Macbook Air M1.   Final Cut Pro Taking up Too Much Space  My Macbook Air M1 had only 256GB of storage onboard. My raw footage was only about 9GB. The biggest file was the FCPX project files itself at about 140GB! How did 9GB become 140GB? There is not enough disk space for my Final Cut Pro. Why Is Final Cut Pro Taking up So Much Storage Final Cut Pro renders files in high-quality media so that we can playback our edits smoothly direct from the timeline.  It creates multiple HUGE high-quality files of our footage in the background.   It is a good thing, so as to maintain high-quality final edited video, BUT not a good thing for a laptop with only 256GB. How to Clear Disk Space on Final Cut Pro The question is how to delete the rendered files in FCPX? 1. Select the library in FCPX...  2. Go to Files > Delete Generated L...
