Comments on: Good DVCPROHD on Final Cut workflow article http://www.bustedskull.com/2005/03/10/good-dvcprohd-on-final-cut-workflow-article/ Jesse Rosen's Weblog Tue, 06 Jan 2009 21:08:08 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5 By: Charlie http://www.bustedskull.com/2005/03/10/good-dvcprohd-on-final-cut-workflow-article/#comment-820 Charlie Fri, 15 Sep 2006 17:04:11 +0000 /?p=8#comment-820 I have question regarding capturing from the 1200A into final cut pro 5.1.1 via firewire. I'm watching my dailies on a 23" apple display and it seems that audio is about 9 frames late. When recording from the deck w/headphones connected to the deck, audio seems to be in sync. any suggestion? deck settings to adjust for capture offset or fcp capture offset?

I think that tri-level shouldn't be necessary, as everything should sync properly to black burst. (Well not the camera, but the 1200 and the I/O do.) What problems are you having?

What are your thoughts on tri-level sync for post production HD. We have a few issues with our 1200A, AJA I/O and FCP5 and we were looking at a master Tri-level sync to stabilize our system. We only have one Varicam and we never do multi-cam HD. Later, Ray Palmer Phoenix, AZ New subject. What are your thoughts on tri-level sync for post production HD.

It is a perfectly good record deck for crash edits, however, and fortunately that is all that is needed in this case for outputing from Final Cut. Unlike in every other format I've tried, FCP will actually output embedded timecode in DVCPRO HD over firewire, so as long as the deck is set to take external timecode you end up with a perfectly usable master. Better in fact than using the 1700 VTR, since it re-imbeds the variable-frame flags in the output signal, so you can recapture the footage at 24 through firewire.

While it may be possible to output a sequence to this machine it was not designed for editing. It's primary design was for digitizing to non-linear edit systems. Of course the AJ-HD1700 studio VTR is the necessary deck to output to but it will set you back $60,000.00. So much for an inexpensive workflow. Regards, Phil Andrew,
