  Capturing HDV footage using JVC HDV Deck

  Posted by Stefani Natalia on May 7, 2007 at 6:15 pm

  Hi FCP professionals,

  I need help with capturing HDV footage into FCP. The footage was shot in 720p30 with JVC HDV 100.

  Capture Software
  Final Cut Pro 5.1 Crossgrade

  Capture Device
  JVC HDV Deck

  FCP Audio/Video Settings:

  Sequence Preset
  HDV – 720p30

  Capture Preset
  HDV-Apple Intermediate Codec

  Device Control Preset
  HDV FIrewire

  The JVC HDV deck did not allow me to control it using Log & Capture Window. I had to control the deck locally (manually) and could only do “capture now”.

  I had to select HDV-Apple Intermediate Codec instead of HDV in the audio/video settings. Otherwise, the deck will not capture the footage even though Final Cut recognizes the deck.

  Now that I have all the footage in my hard drive and start editing, when I drop the video into the timeline, the video turns into a solid green or solid black.

  What seems to be the problem?

  I would very appreciate your advice. Thank you.
