  • HDV capture problem

    Posted by John Martin on February 7, 2008 at 4:39 pm

    I’m capturing from an HDV tape into FCP on all the appropriate settings, HDV 1080i60, with the devices and presets all correct. However after I capture it appears horribly once in the canvas. The individual quicktime files look and play fine and there is no rendering once I drag clip into canvas. Any thoughts? Is there a ‘low-res’ viewing option that maybe I toggled accidentally?

    What are your time line settings?

    The canvas does not display both fields unless it’s at 100%, and even then it is not the place to be judging quality. You need an HD monitor or a card which can downconvert it such as a Kona.

    Have a wonderful day.
