FCP Capture Help needed!!
Hi,
I am capturing from mini DV into Final Cut 6 via SDI. Using an AJA Kona LH card. The footage is shot 16:9.1. At the moment I am using the AJA Kona LH: 625 25 DV preset for capturing.
should I set the Capture Settings to Anamorphic. or take it in as 4.3 (…or is it 5.4?… confused ) and then place my vertically stretched media into a Anamorphic sequence and re- render it from there?
Ultimately this edit will be shown as a .wmv file inside powerpoint.
For which I use Episode. Should I leave the resizing until this stage?2. The footage seems to be interlaced (motion has jagged edges etc..)
Can I de-interlace this as I capture it, or do I have to apply the FCP filter once its on the timeline?Just want to make sure I’m getting it right as have lots of tapes to digitise…
Thanks in advance!
Eugene

I’d try capturing at 16 x 9 anamorphic, but also adjust your sequence settings to the same. Keep it 16 x 9 the whole way if that’s the native frame size. Good luck

Hi Eugene,
What I don’t understand is that you capture DV through SDI.
To do that you have FW.
With the AJA you can improve the quality of your picture on capturing.
Just set a codec better than DV.
If you have shoot 16×9, of course set Anamorphic.
Your footage is interlaced. As long as I know you can not de-interlace on capturing.
You need to d-interlace in post.
