    [Chris Babbitt] “when speeding up or slowing down footage in FCP. For some reason, with this function, the field order isn’t changed”

    It might be why it’s best to just use the HD clip in an SD timeline. Why downconvert first unless one’s NLE can’t handle the HD clips?

    Michael,

    How do you plan to get the footage from the camera to the DSR20?
    The deck has no SDI or component inputs. Are you going to transfer to the computer first and then out to tape? Just wondering, because I was considering the same approach.

    That’s the problem, Craig. If you drop the HD clip into the SD timeline and then do a speed change, you get field order problems. You have to apply the speed change first and save it out as a separate Quicktime movie before bringing it into your SD sequence. Try it.

    Chris, I am not going into a DSR 20 directly. I am going into the HDV M10 deck, then up to HD into Media 100 edit then downscale and into the DSR 20 as DVCAM. All this because Media 100 can’t take XDCAM yet and the HD in through SDI has embedded audio which it also can’t take! What a performance, film was never like this!
