  • Bizarre Log and Transfer Issue.

    Posted by David Burns on January 12, 2009 at 6:20 pm

    Lately when I try to transfer AVDHD files into Final Cut I am getting an obnoxiously strong jitter in the clips. The clips play normally in the camera and in the Log & Transfer viewer, but after they’ve been queued and placed in the project browser the jitter appear in the viewer and canvas. The audio is fine.

    I’ve been using this camera for a year and have been transferring clips easily until now. Anyone have any idea what might have happened? Help please!

    Your timeline isn’t matching your footage?

    It seems to match. The clip in the camera is 13 seconds. In the Log/Transfer page the clip is listed as 13 seconds. And after it is transcoded into the browser it is listed as 13 seconds. When I put it into the timeline, it is also 13 seconds. I’ve been playing it on the canvas one frame at a time and it seems as though frames are being inserted out of order. For example, the clip is of my point of view as I walk into a hallway. As I get close to the hallway a frame from earlier seems to be inserted because the hallway is further away, then it goes back to the correct place. Am I making sense?

    What format and frame rate did you shoot? 1080i? 720p? 24p 30p 60p? 60i?

    It’s 1080i and 30p.

    Try turning off the Remove Adv. pulldown and redundant frames option in the log and transfer preferences.

    Also, how are you monitoring your video and audio?

    I’ll give that a shot. Thanks Jeremy, I’ll let you know how it goes!

    Did the fields somehow get reversed when ingesting or when playing back?

    Hi Jeremy,

    That didn’t work either. Forgive my ignorance, but what do you mean by monitoring?

    Hi Tom,

    I’m pretty much a novice here, how would I check to see if the fields got reversed during ingestion?

    Thanks for your help.

    How do you watch your video and hear your audio out of FCP and your computer?
