Is the effect completely rendered? Even if FCP is showing “real time” (ie the slightly green bar), you sometimes have to render to get actual “real time” playback. Somehow this is called a feature.

Yeah, I’m continually having to trash prefs to clear it. It usually seems to crop up when I’m using Motion along side FCP.

Yeah, this is where I really miss Avid. It seems that outputting to tape is an afterthought for Apple. Outputting to tape was about as easy as making a dub on an Avid. Not so with FCP. It’s usually a long painful process. You’d think that by leaving the in-point blank that FCP would default to the in-point of your sequence. Nope. That would be too easy. I think it shows how little time Apple spends on that part of the app.

We will be mastering to Digibeta.

Yes, thanks, that has been suggested. The question is whether or not recapturing from a DSR 2000 ( which from my understanding will improve the quality right off the bat) via SDI to Kona at 10 bit uncompressed will give us better results than doing as you suggest.

The reason for my posting here is that I’m wondering if taking the DV via SDI thru Kona @ 10bit will give me an appreciable upgrade in image quality worthy of all the hassle of recapturing piles of source tapes. There will be graphics and a fair amount of color correct.

Steve, right you are. I will bring this up with her.

She’s going to re-conform from the new selects tape. Sounds convoluted, I know, but I don’t really care if she does all that work. And you’re right, it removes any possibility of going back to the source tapes if need be. Oh well.

Sorry if I wasn’t clear, She’s basically making a comp source reel from her Final Cut selects so we don’t have to wade through tons of tapes. The final output will most likely be Dbeta.
