  Kona field issue

  Posted by Ben Holmes on October 10, 2007 at 1:23 am

  Hi all

  I have a 2.7ghz Dual G5 with a Kona LH. It has been recently ugraded to FCP 6.0.1 and Kona version 4.0.

  I am using Uncompressed 10-bit for capture and sequence – in PAL. All my settings appear correct – upper field first for the sequence.

  When I drop a clip in the timeline from an edited piece and then razor blade up the shots for treatment and editing, the cuts are happening between the wrong fields. In other words, I am cutting on an existing cut, and I get a one field flash of the shot on the other side of the cut left over. I have also noticed that when I jog back and forth over the cut point, my monitor and the canvas do not always show the same frame with the Kona card set to display a single field in the Kona panel. If this is set to ‘one frame’ the the Kona setup, over the cut point you get a frame containing one field of incoming and outgoing shots.

  I have trashed prefs and reloaded drivers. In several years of using Kona I have NEVER had this issue. I suspect this may be a PAL issue. Can anyone enlighten me? Any idea, however obvious or outlandish greatfully accepted.

  Kind thanks

  Ben
