PAL DV camera plays back NTSC but can’t capture
I have a 6 minute NTSC DVCAM footage on tape. Want to capture it onto hard drive.
Have a PD170 PAL version. The camera does playback the footage correctly and also can feed the A-V signal onto a TV monitor via A-V cables.
When trying to capture same footage with FCP 4 (all capture presets changed to NTSC DVPRO (4:3), the capure & log preview window shows he coloured bars and ‘Preview has been disabled’.I see no video but get audio. I can control the camera though via FCP.
Granted the camera is PAL and I am working with NTSC footage, but the camera does play it back.
Are my settings wrong or it ont be possible at all to caputre with the PAL camera?
Thank you.
