The insert function works great. I use it all the time. Had to fix something in an intro for a Doc that was already mastered out to digi. I made my correction and just iserted in the edit to tape window. Frame Accurate and everything. You might want to check the mastering settings tab on the edit to tape window. It could be that it is defaulted to have a trailer for a certian amount of time. My guess is that is your problem.

You have to calculate your deck’s offset. I could explain it to you, but the manual does a decent job.

Look at the FCP help PDF and page 332, “Calibrating Timecode Capture With Serial Device Control”

I’m an old edit user myself. I have an SX machine and have the same problems as you when it comes to inserting. If you close the sequence and just drag it in from the browser you will find that it should work. For some reason with assemble you can have the squence open and not have any problems. Still learning it myself.

THANKS GUYS,

Chris that worked a treat, dragging to the source window and then inserting into the tape worked with no black at end of clip….. will have a loo at the callibration of the RS422 in the next few days,

Thanks Guys, as allways the site works.

Kindest Regards
