  • Capture setting for HDV to DV iLink converter

    Posted by Bram Vergeer on October 3, 2008 at 2:03 pm

    Hello,
    I use the Sony HDR-HC1e PAL camera. I film in HD and I use the iLink converter to capture the material in DV format in FCP. I can’t figure out how to put the capture setting to capture the material in DV 16:9 (the original format since HD is always 16:9)
    Thanx bram

    Thnanx Jerry,
    I put the capture settings on anamorphic and the sequence settings normal dv pal. That works
    Now the editting. My viewer window in FCP has the image in 16:9. My Canvas window (of the sequence) has the image also in 16:9 but with the black bars. I want to export the film eventually as 4:3 but full screen, so without the bars. That means a part on the left and a part right side will fall off. In this situation I have to rescale every single file I edit individually by enlarging the wireframe. That of course is a lot of work. Is there a more easy way out??

    Many thanx again!
    Bram
