FCP5 and Sony HDV A1e camera
Hi guys,
I have a big problem. I captured my footage with the A1e and now I like to edit to tape my timeline but I can’t get no signal on the camera. I tried so many setting changes an still can’t find the problem. With apple12 or alt12 nothing changes. What can this be?
Please help, cause I have to deliver a broadcast tape by friday.
Many Thanks,
Milan

Check out your camera (and it’s user guide – you can probably google search to find it online if you don’t have it handy) to make sure the settings are correct for connecting to your computer.
You may also want to leave the camera hooked up to your computer, and do a restart. FCP or your computer may not be recognizing the camera.

I haven’t yet tried edit to tape on my A1J since I bought it, so I’m not sure what problems there might be.
Can you at least re-establish deck control with your A1, like you did when you captured your footage?
I did notice during capture, that one needs to set the capture format to exactly what the camera outputs. FCP won’t detect it for you.
but I’m sure you have the FCP output set to HDV1080i, and the A1 HDV to DV mode turned off and so on…
