    Hi All,

    Shot a multi-camera reality show with two XDCAM PDW-530 cameras.
    Both cameras were setup to shoot at 30p but one was set to “DF” and the other “NDF”, now they dont sync up on the timeline. Anyone know how I can deal with this?

    You can sync in multicam using in points rather than timecode. Or, you dub one set of tapes and create new masters with DF or NDF.
