Can FCP and Kona 3 do this?
I have a digibeta tape that has been closed captioned. I have the original sequence in FCP. Now I need to change a clip in the sequence. Can I capture the CC tape, lay that in on a higher track and crop it so that only the captioning is coming through on that track – then re-master? I have done this many times in Avid – the only catch being that the captioning layer has to play out in real time, ie, can’t be rendered.

I mean that the crop effect can’t be rendered.
Yeah, I just tried it..seems to work fine. -
Yes, it works just fine.
not sure what you mean it has to play in real time…. unless you mean it has to be playing for a TV to read the CC data and display it?

Yes you can.
After you capture your new clip, open the to-be-cropped clip in the Viewer, go to the Motion Tab and adjust the crop sliders.
Drag it to a new sequence on track 2 and put the new shot underneath on track 1.
Then drag this sequence from the Browser to the Viewer and go File>Edit to Tape to do an insert.
I assume you know the way from here; but if not, tell us so.Jaap

for legal CC, an MXO2 can capture and playback CC data correctly – to / from Line 21, or which ever line you spec. it gets saved as an _audio_ track in FCP which means you can edit the picture if you need to and then send it back. its a nice legal proper video signal
