Re: Kona 2 mixed resolutions!
Hello,
I’ve just received my new Kona 2 with K Box and IO LA. I have some HDV footage which I have already captured to a firewire drive albeit downconverted to DV. I thought the whole project was to be shot on this format but at the last minute it was decided that they would shoot some on Beta SP.
What I want to know is if I now capture this via the LA will I have to render either the DV or the Beta footage depending on the timeline settings? I am used to using the Cinewave card which is good at the mixed res thing. Or would a good idea be to recapture the HDV footage analoguely via the LA?
Thanks in advance

HDV is supported now in FCP, why not edit in that format and convert the Beta clips to HDV codec?
I’m not sure if this is true of Kona2 and HDV, but you can now up convert SD clips to HD.According to the AJA forums, DV and other compressed codecs need to be rendered if you’re not using the AJA codecs. I know what you mean about Cinewave… just capture and go. I don’t believe Kona supports mixed rez yet…its one reason why I’m sticking with Cinewave for at least another month. I have my eye on your exact setup… Kona2/iOLA. How is it working for you?
