  • a few questions from an older user….

    Posted by Leslie Wand on June 19, 2005 at 11:16 pm

    i’m rather rushed at the moment with a couple of major projects, both of which have thrown up questions, so forgive my abruptness, and mixture of questions under one heading:

    a. i’m still having a bloody entry problem in advance capture: having to add a . between times – can’t simply type in 123423 and get 12:34:23 – seems no one can answer me why this happens.
    am using pal ebu 25fps timeline. tried with time and frames, same thing. originally put it down to
    a quirk on my old amd system, but this new one is intel, and still doing the same thing… does anyone know if it’s a pal quirk?

    b. suggestions as to decent c/g plugin. am really only after scrolls and crawls – with shadows, outline, etc.,

    c. a reliable capture deck for edl work. my dsr11 is fine for dump and record, but doesn’t seem to reliable pickingup t/c in fast forward – i can guess better than it where’s its coming back on the heads!!!

    many thanks,

    leslie

    Hi Leslie ~

    No this is a problem and it’s the same in V6 so I don’t think there is a way around it. Maybe we should put it on the wish list with Sony. It sure would make things a hell of a lot quicker when you have a lot of EDL entries to type.

    thanks chris.

    i was beginning to worry there for a while.

    well, you’ve also saved me some money since the only reason i could see for upgrading to 6 was the hope they might have fixed the problem.

    as it is, it’s a real unadulterated pain since most of my work is now with edl’s.

    and extra three keystrokes for every entry is one thing, but forgetting one a nightmare!!!

    gud on ya,

    all the best,

    leslie
