  HELP!!! with spx800 and firestore fs100 firestore.

  Posted by Joe Quirino on April 5, 2007 at 5:31 pm

  I have an spx800 P2 camera and I just bought a Fs-100 firestore. The problem I am having is the firestore records however, there is no indication on my camera that I am recording… If timecode would run, or a record light or something.. I am hoping this is just a setting thing. If someone can help me with a work around that would be awesome!!! Thanks

  I also have the same camera and have used the fs-100.

  My settings, dvcpro50, p2, local fs-100 control and when it’s recording the red light flashes and the counter is running. I don’t trust the camera slave mode. I leave the spx800 TVC on fee run and when the fs-100 starts recording that TC is part of the metadata. So, I niote the TC at record and that’s how I find my shots durung editing. Patrick

  the problem I am having however, and focus is trying to solve this, is that the spx800 offers to the fs-100 ch1 as “ch 0” and when edited ito Vegas this is not a problem, but AVID does not what a ch 0 is and thus I loose ch1 audio when I edit in AVID.
