Log & Capture – Clip settings
New to FCP here… In the Log & Capture window the Input setup adjustments are greyed out. I’ve checked the manual, but can’t seem to figure out what’s up??? I’m thinking is some small checkbox or option I’ve overlooked & someone here can help me out. Thanks.

[Jeremy Silverthorn] “In the Log & Capture window the Input setup adjustments are greyed out.”
If you’re capturing DV via FireWire, you CAN’T make any adjustments during capture.
DV over FireWire is basically a “file transfer” from tape to computer Hard Drive (kind of like using a tape back-up system) where no changes are made to the files at this stage.
All adjustments must be made after capture, during the edit process.
If you obtain a capture card, then certain adjustments will become available (not grayed-out) based on the card’s capabilities.

Doh!! from ME…
I see that you DO have an ioLA for capture…
It should have its own set-up controls available in a pull-down menu.I don’t know exactly WHERE to look, but if you installed the io software drivers correctly, FCP should have a menu choice to enable using the io for capture.
