  • HELP! Output to tape issues!!

    Posted by Cone Chamberlain on June 19, 2008 at 2:05 am

    I shot a thing in HD and I’m trying to output to SD miniDV tape, but it’s not happening. I’ve tried converting a QT file to SD and still no go. All I get is a blue screen on the DV recorder. It’s critical I fix this pronto.

    All I want is an SD miniDV tape of my film that was shot on HD. Please HELP!!

    Nest your HD sequence into a DV timeline, then render and output to tape.

    The reason you cant go directly from your HD time time to DV tape via firewire is because you must generate a DV signal that the camera can read.

    There are no “technical solutions” to your “artistic problems”.
    Don’t let technology get in the way of your creativity!
