  • could not output timecode from video out F350

    Posted by Mpigott on April 29, 2010 at 5:11 pm

    We shot a piece in SD DVCam, and I read that by changing the Operations Menu/Video/To Output
    TC, that this will show up in the Video Out from the BNC.

    I enabled TC on the ViewFinder Menu, and the one for TC OUT to Video Out,

    but yet, all I got was the regular video less TC overlay.

    I’d had to use the XDCAM software now, ingest the clip and add timecode with a generator.

    Which is way slower.

    Did I miss anything, I spend about 2 hours reading the F350 manual and gave up.

    This is a waste for a client review with TC overlay…

    Maybe my first post wasn’t clear but I am looking for some help

    We have the cinelata F350 Sony XDCAM, and I wanted to do a client
    review DVD directly from the SD output on the F350 WITH timecode overlay.

    It was shot a 35MB DV, so it is SD already.

    Even though I went through the Operations Menu and enabled
    TC overlay on Video Out, when I hit play I still got only the
    SD video less the TC overlay.

    Did I miss something?

    Thanks
