  • Digitize HVX200 Directly into FinalCutPro

    Posted by Greg Jones on May 4, 2006 at 7:41 pm

    I just did a test today where I had an HVX200 Panasonic Camera shooting 720p firewired directly into Final Cut Pro. I can digitize directly in if I turn off machine control. If I turn on machine Control I get an error that the VTR is not responding. I would like to be able to set the timecode coming into Final Cut Pro for my clips so that each clip has unique timecode. Any tips?

    I hate to respond without answering your question, but I’m trying to make a similar setup work and wanted to ask you you set the camera up. I was planning on using the HVX200 on monday (1-day rental) to live capture to FCP in DVCPRO50. What camera settings do you use and do you have to have a P2 card installed even if you are not really going to hit “record” on the camera?

    if it works anything like DV….you can’t get timecode that way.

    You can always add the timecodes you want manually in the clip properties after you digitize.
