  • HDV to FCP Not quite right

    Posted by Matt Bailey on May 27, 2009 at 5:30 pm

    Hi Everyone

    An issue here that I have failed to come across on the forum so far. If anyone has come across this I would love to know their resolution!

    Issue:

    Shot a few hours of HDV 1080i50 on the SonyZ1e. All okay on the tapes, smooth playback on the camera, and HVR-M10 deck lcd.

    Capture to FCP -tried all these-( HDV 1080i codec, Apple ProRes, Apple Intermediate). Play back the quicktime files captured, and there is lag/stutter. Try the same thing on my older G5, the stutter is REALLY bad!

    *MacBookPro,Intel Core 2 Duo, Processor Speed: 2.6 GHz Memory:4 GB, Bus Speed:800 MHz, GeForce 8600M GT

    FCP 6.0.5

    Any ideas most welcome!

    Cheers for now.

    Matt

    Where did you capture the video to?
    Internal Drive?
    External Drive?

    If it is an external drive, how is that drive connected?

    Hi Zane

    Yeah, made sure I went direct on this one, straight to my hard drive…

    [matt peberdy] “straight to my hard drive”

    Again internal drive or external?

    Sorry but I cannot see your set up.
