  • Refresh AV devices in the view menu,

    Shift F12 will also force display the current frame.

    What codec is this happening with?

    Does your easy setup match your timeline?

    Craig,

    I have seen this a few times in FCP, sometimes it gets a bit buggy with these settings.

    I would do this in the following methodical order

    create a brand new sequence
    Load the appropriate sequence preset
    Apple key “0” to open timeline settings
    Check the anamorphic box
    nest the 16X9 sequence into the 4X3 sequence.

    CHECK that the sequence you are dropping in is set to anamorphic.
    It sounds like that is the missing link.
    Make sure that main sequence is actually checked as a 16×9.

    Sometimes we set the montiors, window dispplay, etc to 16×9 but not the actual sequence.

    Wendi,

    Maybe try toggling the window layouts?

    Hi,

    I found it. I was a termination problem. Once I got rid of the monitor loop it “cleared” up the problem.

    Thanks,

    Check those terminators everybody 🙂

    If you are capturing HDV then you will not see video while you ae capturing.

    Also check to make sure that you are capturing Audio and video in the capture window.

    Just to add to Enzo’s excellent post. You might want to turn the view image and wireframe on in canvas window.

    You park somewhere on the timeline, adjust the image size scale and position in the canvas window.

    Now move down ten seconds and make whatever adjustments you wan to scale, size and position in the canvas and you have created keyframes, if you move back ten seconds and hit play, then you see the changes between the paramters.

    Kevin,

    If you go with the convergent designs box is it a firewire interface? The reason I ask is because the box would be using up most of the MAC’s firewire resources. If you were attaching a deck to that same firewire bus you might have some choking issues with the stream you are pushing through the firewire bus.

    The AJA component converter would eliminate the need for adding additional PCI cards, or using up the firewire bus bandwidth. It will convert any component signal to HD-SDI, and would be cheaper than the Convergent design box. Also, the HD version of the Convergent Design box is not shipping yet, which means it is at the prototype stage. This is a relatively new company on the scene and I have not had any experience with their products so I can not really say. From what I read on their site it appears the product can do a lot of things and seems to be well designed.

    It’s about 2000. I think that with the HD connect LE they are sending the RP-188 TC embedded in the HD-SDI stream. Now there is a product I would like to test because it takes in HDV converts it to HD-SDI and claims to be completely TC accurate.

    I still would have a few questions, will it convert all HDV formats, SONY, JVC, CANNON (as they all have their slight differences AND, it does not seem to support 24P, so what do you do if you ahve the new JVC footage shot at 720_24P.

    Lots of questions. I am sure Gary Adcock will jump in here, or at least I hope he does.

    If you are talking about 1080P then it might be the increased resolution of the monitor that appears jittery. I fing that the 1080P 24 frame stuf has a specific fequency flicker that differs greatly from 720P.

    If you are going to 1080i (itelaced, then I agree with you.

    The HD-SDI would be nessesary for the KONA 2 as it does not accept HD analog inputs.

    So I would go with the Lanc and the LH, then you should be good to go.
