Thanks to everyone who posted replies to my earlier problem. The folks at AJA are looking into the situation and never heard of anything like it. Very strange. The new Kona LH card corks great with everything except your basic DV NTSC be it 29.97 or 23.98. They’re stumped too. I’ll post their findings when I hear back.

Thanks again,

Eric

Gotcha, however, when I use the 29.97 settings although it technically plays smoothly, the left and right sides of the frame are switched with an overlao in the middle and the color is very washed out? I’ve tried repatching the monitor with no luck. Suggestions?

thanks

That makes sense. If I create a new 29.97 sequence and place the project in there (and render it), will that allow me an accurate representation for color-correction? I could bring the corrected material back into a 23.98 project for final output.

[Eric Grush]

Yes. The capture was done with the advanced pulldown and the project is running in a 23.98 sequence in FCP. It plays just fine through Firewire out into my deck and throught that into a television. The issue is in playing through the Kona LH into my color-correction monitor through component in.

Thanks for the responses. I was worried about the potential for obsolescence with my current machine (it being nearly a year and half old and all). Good to hear the CalDigit products seem to deliver what they promise. What about external I/O set-ups? Is there anything out there that might transfer to a new system or are they too slow by using only Firewire?
