Up res HDV

[Walter Biscardi]

[Sean Davison] “Ive set the Kona control panel to input analog video (component Beta SP) and created a new capture setting using the 625 setting as my input and DVC ProHD as the conmpressor”

What? Where does BetaSP and 625 come in?

What is your HDV footage? 1080i/50 or /60?

Set to the AJA Kona DVCPro HD 1080i/50 or 60 and then change the Device Control to Firewire NTSC to control the deck.

sorry not hdv – dv! need to get it into a dvcprohd timeline using component out

[Jeremy Garchow]

You should choose the proper DVCPRO HD easy setup and the Kona will upconvert the DV footage for you.

I should add that as long as the frame rates are compatible.

I cant get the BO box to upconvert the Component signal

[Walter Biscardi]

There are instructions for this in the manual, but set your Primary to match the DV deck and the Secondary to match whatever your HD upconvert is to be in the Kona control panel.

Then switch back to FCP and the control panel should now show the SD signal being upconverted.

[Sean Davison] “Im trying to Digitise some HDV footage and up res it to DVC Pro HD through the component inputs on the Breakout Box”

[Sean Davison] “I cant get the BO box to upconvert the Component signal”

Correct me if I’m off base here guys, but since Sean says he’s trying to get footage into the computer via component analog, that would point to a Kona LH/LHe board. That board does not upconvert, does it?

D’OH! You’re absolutely correct. The LH / LHe models DOWNconvert only, no upconvert. I need more coffee!
