    Hi,

    I’m trying to print to tape (minidv) but I need to do it in DVCAM. I’m not having much luck with the manual and i can’t seem to figure out how to do this. There is no sequence setting for DVCAM and I don’t see it in the options under “Print to Tape”. How do I get a sequence that was done in DV NTSC 48khz to a minidv tape in dvcam?

    I’m trying to submit this to access tv for someone and they require DVCAm. My deck is minidv only.

    Thanks,
    Neobe

    NVelis…please start a new topic if you have a new question.

    If you deck is MiniDV only, it will not record DVCAM. That isn’t an option you set in FCP…it is a deck setting. The signal is the same, only DVCAM runs slightly faster than miniDV. 60 min on MiniDv is 40 min on DVCAM.

    If they insist on a DVCAM output, you will need to rent a DVCAM deck.
