  how do i view clear xdcam images?

  Posted by Emmet Reddy on December 14, 2008 at 7:25 pm

  hi im currently cutting a project that was shot on XDCAM
  the compression used is 1080p25 (35 Mb/s VBR) im using an aja kona card the problem is the footage looks great on the computer screens in FCP but on my monitor it looks like its antialiasing or there is a problem with the field order or something.?
  Im monitoring from an sdi output and i have selected sdi 1 output to 10bit uncompressed and sdi output 2 is set to 1080i25 so i assume i should be using output 2 for my monitoring but it still looks dodgy.
  So is it my monitor my settings or what? can anyone offer any advice on how i can get a clean sharp XDCAM image?

  The 1080p Easy Setups are an additonal download from the AJA website. That might be your problem.

  Do your sequence settings match your footage settings?
