  1200 Timecode

  Posted by Paul Boyer on July 26, 2005 at 6:35 pm

  Can I get the 1200a to give me timecode burns into FCP5 through the firewire? I need to make window burns and want to eliminate the render for the timecode reader.
  thanks again

  Sorry No, Supers are a video out thing..

  why not just dig the tape and use FCP’s TC generator? on a DP 2.5 it will work in real time.

  You can use the 1200a to superimpose time code via firewire when down converting HD to DV/DV50. Go to menu item 899, DIF SUPER, and turn it on.

  Gary’s suggestion is better, and saves time if you are onlining your project on the MAC. Then downconverting makes no sense.
