Direct Capture to FCP
Sorry but I couldn’t find this during a search.
I have a client who has requested I outfit a studio for them with Mac gear.
No problem but I am unsure as to whether I can do direct captures (from camera to hard drive) with Final Cut Pro as I can with my PC software.
Any info would be much appreciated.

My apologies. I quite often record direct to hard drive using Adobe Premiere 1.5 in order to save myself digitizing time.

Check this out: https://www.virtualvtr.com/pictureready/index.html
It’s called “Picture Ready” and it allow you to record a live feed, and begin editing even before it’s complete.

Or you can just make sure that your device control is set to UNCONTROLLED ADVICE and then hit CAPTURE NOW…if PictureReady is out of your budget.

[Shane Ross] “UNCONTROLLED ADVICE”
Freudian typo? I get this from my father all the time!

UNCONTROLLED ADVICE … you should put it in your sig file Shane 🙂

Thanks everyone.
I guess my only problem now is that when I talk to the client I’ll be afraid that I’m offering “Uncontrolled Advice”.
Awesome

ROTFLMAO!!
UNCONTROLLED ADVICE…I meant, of course, DEVICE. But yes, I think that has to go into my sig file.

Here is a link to an Apple tip on capturing directly from camera to QT.

I have experienced, and I know others have too, that files captured by QuickTime Player cannot be edited in FCP.
