  ETT Starts recording during preroll

  Posted by Dustin Lau on July 19, 2005 at 2:24 pm

  I am running FCP 5.0.2 on a Blackmagic Decklink HD Pro 4:2:2 dumping into a Sony DVW500p wih pre roll set at 5 seconds and playback offset at +00:00:04. I am getting an inconsistent error that occurs during the pre-roll process eg my in point is at 10:00:00:00, the tape cues back to 09:59:55:00 and starts rolling for the servo to stablize, but before it hits 10:00:00:00, the deck already begins recording to tape, normally upon the commencement of pre roll at 09:59:55:00. Relaying the black, re cueing the tape and setting the dump again is painless, but the HDV conform prior to dumping is a waste of time. Can anyone shed some light on why this is happening?
