  • Progressive DVCAM in FCP

    Posted by Enzo Tedeschi on October 3, 2005 at 10:02 pm

    Hello all,

    I have some tapes coming my way this week that have been shot 25 frame progressive. Not having done progressive scan material before, these may seem like silly questions:

    Do I need a deck capable of progressive playback, or will a garden-variety DVCAM deck suffice?

    Are there any specific progressive capture settings in FCP other than switching the field setting to “None”

    Any tips on working with Progressive Scan material appreciated.

    You’ll find that all works without doing anything different from interlaced footage… Was PAL? right? just capature as PAL DV… and go.. Don’t need a special machine either.. any PAL player wll play it.
