Thanks for all the advice. I think I’m good to go.

Thanks, I just googled that and will start wading through the choices.

Hi Jeremy, Thanks for your help yesterday. I finally got the schematic of the Sony Video 8 deck. There is no RCA video green/red/blue connection. The best component connection is S-Video. The S-Video to BNC adapters send the video signal through one cable for chroma and one for luminance, which doesn’t mesh with the 3xBNC video In on the Ki Pro.

Is there any solution that you know of or should I be on the hunt for another deck? Thanks.

Thanks so much. Just need to get some RCA to BNC adapters and I’m ready to go. Appreciate the help.

Thanks for the advice. I just don’t understand the answer to the audio question. I am not using a mixer. On the config menu, which audio level should I choose? Also, on the audio connectivity, sorry to be lame, but could you explain the cable connection? Does the audio come in through the deck via RCA and go out from the ki pro embedded via the SDI? Argh! Feeling analogaphobic.

Mark, Thanks for the quick response. A followup question, if you can. Why would the footage, which displays anamorphic in QuickTime, display in perfect 4:3 aspect in FCP? The QT file states a 720 by 486 aspect ratio. Confused and just gathering facts before I demand a redo. Thanks.

Paul,

Thanks for your help. I read the thread on the alternate workflow as well. I currently have FCP 6, so only can choose Apple Pro Res or Apple Intermediate codec on the UI for transcoding AVCHD media.

Appreciate the quick feedback.
