  • I find a new issue with ” lower field” footage in Decklink-timeline

    Posted by Oliver Petz on June 29, 2007 at 9:33 am

    Hello everybody

    if you mix dv-(lower field) and motion-jpg( upper field )material
    on a Decklink DV- or Motion-jpg-PAL-Timeline in premiere Pro 2.0 and set a transition from a DV to an motion-jpg-Clip, the dv-Clip jumps at the startpoint of the transition one line to the bottom. it looks horrible!

    Unable to make a simple transition between lower and upper field clips! the same thing happens if you only work with dv (lower field)footage in a decklink -DV-Timeline. no chance to set a transition without this “jumping-issue”
    If i work with a standard dv-Timeline ( via firewire, without decklink hardware) erverthing is fine!

    this is really boring…. 🙁

    sorry for my horrible english

    Hi Necemon,
    The same Issue with driver 6.3
    Hello blackmagic people.
    I hope you fix this bug a little bit earlier as the “playback lower field material in a upper-field timeline bug ” which appears with driver version 5.9

    btw:
    I am very disappointed. One big bug fixed, and another big bug appears.
    And that with every new driver version!!!
    And i dont talk about tiny little issues!
    It is elementary that you can mix up ( transitions) and playback
    Lower and upper field material on a same Pal-timeline!
    I think that should be the focus for your engineers at the future.
    At the moment i am still working on a projekt with a lot of DV-CAM
    and Digibeta-Material. Now i must copy the hole DV-CAm-Material
    to Digibeta and re-capture to finish this projekt.

    I start working with my decklink extreme card from the first official
    Windows-driver for Premiere.
    But maybe now it is time to spend a lot of money for a matrox-axio card
    I have no longer time for waiting year over year for a driver-version that really works

    Sorry for my horrible english
