  • wahts the hack for firewire control only?

    Posted by Bob Flood on April 5, 2006 at 1:53 am

    hey again

    so larry j or ken stone go into this long discussion about capturing hdv via analog component, but controlling it via firewire.

    I have fcp 5.0.4 , a sony M10U, and a dual 2.7 g5, as well as a kona lh

    I cant seem to get it to work, and i thought i remeber some mac hack so fcp will let you control the deck yet capture via the card ( i have tried ALL the firewire device control settings and i get error messages saying “cannot init deck” or “to control hdv you must capture hdv”

    I have also tried all the settings on my M10U, all to no avail

    any help?

    thanx again

    Hey bob

    (haha i am talking to myself!)

    I found that if i shut off audio lock in the M10U menu, i can control the deck!

    cool!

    now just have to figure the offset through the card!

    AJA outlines the procedure on their web site https://www.aja.com/pdfs/AJA_whitepaper_HDV.pdf

    it also covers the only way to currently capture 720p24 from the JVC camera also.
