  • 24p Back to Tape; LP or DVD?

    Posted by Alexander Lee on June 8, 2007 at 5:56 pm

    Hi,

    I am trying to output my DVX-100 24p advanced footage back to miniDV tape. Since the footage was imported into my sequence removing advanced pulldown, is there a way for Final Cut Pro to reinsert the flagged frames onto miniDV tape properly?

    Also, if given a choice to project my film onto a theater screen using LP mode on a miniDV tape or DVD, which format would you choose for higher quality?

    Any info much appreciated!

    I belive that we can somehow record back onto tape using the same 2:3:3:2 cadence that was originally on the DV tape, but while recording the 23.98 footage directly onto miniDV tape thru firewire, upon playback the image goes in and out, stutters, and experiences dropouts. We’re running a Macbook Pro 2.16ghz Core Duo, so I don’t believe this is a system speed issue. Our solution has been to place the 23.98 footage onto a 29.97 sequence and are manually recording using a DV deck which has worked OK.
