  • Quick question(Kona to ghosting)

    Posted by Peter Dewit on December 5, 2007 at 7:44 pm

    somehat of a crosspost but I think this may be a AJA specific issue. I loaded in material using a KONA 2 from a Digibeta PAL from a J3 via SDI. It was loaded using the 8 Bit to DV preset.

    Te image on what’s captured seems ot have a white ghost outline around things. It’s msot noticeable around people’s heads in bright lighting.

    anyone ever seen a KONa capture do this?

    Any chance you can post a screen shot?

    Is it in your canvas and monitor? What about in quicktime?

    It’s visible both in the viewer and on the external monitor. it’s very hard to see on the computer monitor but it looks ot be in QT too. i can’t get a screenshot right now but it is a faint white outline around faces probably no more than a few pixels wide. It is most apparent in high contrast scenes.

    Does it happen when capturing to another codec other than dv?

    Hard to say since the client rushed the tapes away and I do not have access to them anymore. I have tried to reproduce the problem witht the same settings and deck but have not been able to reporoduce the problem.

    I was mostly looking to see if this was a known glitch since I did update FCP and QT recently but right now I’m ready to conclude it was probably their source tapes.
