Go to the Kona Control Panel and check that the Audio Input is not set the AES/EBU..which is most likely to be. Change it to SDI Embedded and you’ll be sailing along.

I’ve seen the ghosting/trailing on the Luma series as well with 1080 50i HD materials. Look somewhat like a motion blur trail effect.

Since you already have the external waveform/vectorscope you should feed the Kona 2 SDI output to it and see how it differs from the FCP scope. As as Bob said, trust the external scopes instead.

No Bob…I’ve never paid anything for an SGI box before…but I’ve seen many people who did.

Hi Bob…yeah I figured pretty much that the xw4300 wouldn’t cut it but I thought I try my luck asking just in case it does works. If Blackmagic starts making workstations…woo…just imagine 😛

Trevor, if you wanna have a good laugh, go to : https://babelfish.altavista.com/
Enter the weblink (the one in German) and do a German to English translation.
I like the part that translates FCP to Finally Cut Pro !
Now with Babelfish, you can finally tell your friends that you know a bit of eh…French.

Hi Gary,
Yes I will see you at IBC…will you be at the AJA booth again this year ? I’ll hunt you down…don’t worry. We’ll catch up for a beer after the show on one of the evenings.

Actually what I did was I had a bunch of DPX files that was captured from a HD D5 tape and those DPX files had timecode embedded in them. I used the AJA DPX to Quicktime converter to convert them into a Quicktime movie clip and when I check the timing info of the clip in FCP, or if you enable the timecode overlay, you can see the timecode on the clip, which correspond to the timecode on the DPX files.
However if you wanna take this approach for offline editing, DPX -> Quicktime –> FCP offline, then you will probably want to convert the Quicktime clips to an offline format, ie. DVCProHD, as the converted Quicktime clips will be in the AJA 10bit RGB codec format which takes up disk space and you need a fast disk array to play them back but if it’s for online purpose then just make sure your disk array has enough juice for the playback.

I’ve done a DPX to Quicktime conversion using the AJA DPX to Quicktime utility (latest version) and it did retain the timecode in the Quicktime clip.
You may want to try the latest version which you can download at the AJA support website.

Does the HD-SDI output from the Canon XLH1 carry embedded audio ? If it doesn’t, then your only option is to take the analog audio and feed it to the Kona LH analog audio input via an audio mixer since it is an unbalanced output. Then change the audio input on the AJA Control Panel to analog.
