HDV CAPTURE all clips start at 00:00:00:00 why?
Hi
Am capturing HDV from the sony HVR m10U via sony hdv firewire, and using apple intermediate 1080i codec. once a whole tape is captured, every clip begins at 00:00 time code? AM i not seeing the original tc off the tape? or does capturing via firewire lose the timecode?
FWIW Once i have my systme settings for apple intermediate via fire wire, when i go to capture i do not get the usual capture window.
Instead all i get is a prompt for a clip name, then FCP just starts capturing
What am i missing here
FCP5.4
Apple g5 dual 2.7
Kona LH
OS 10.4Thanx in advance

Nothing. If you capture using AIC you lose the timecode. FCP converts the file and makes a new QuickTime file and TC information is lost. You really want to work in HDV natively and not use AIC. HDV uses a different capture window.
All the best,
