  Video stream location

  Posted by Grant Rammer on September 6, 2017 at 3:35 pm

  Hi all,

  In a nutshell, I am recording a bunch of Betacam SP tapes via Final Cut Pro 7 as 10-bit uncompressed Quicktime.

  Some of the files contain the video stream on stream 0…

  0:0 video
  0:1 audio
  0:2 audio
  0:3 audio
  0:4 audio

  While others contain the video stream on stream 4…

  0:0 audio
  0:1 audio
  0:2 audio
  0:3 audio
  0:4 video

  Any idea why this is? They are being recorded on the same computer, in exactly the same manner.

  Strange to me that sometimes the video stream location flip flops, in which case I have to remap it back to stream 0 on the files that place it on stream 4.

  Could this be related to the tape?

  Using a Blackmagic Optical Fiber card and recording the SDI input.
