Thanks for the advice. I had an old green screen shoot and messed around with it. Using Chroma Key filter, I took the center on dial and turned it until the person was black and my background stayed green. All I need to do is render, add the blacked out version to the timeline along with the original version and then dissolve, with the time code matching.
My forte is writing and producing. Effects are, well, something I don’t use a whole lot of. Mostly story telling.
Thanks for the advice, it helped.

Yeah, I’m getting up there. I’m towards the end of the boomer rage.
Thanks for the input. I think I figured it out by using green screen by experimenting on a prior project. Thanks.

Too freaking easy! Avid is not this simple. The more I play with FCP the more I like it.

I’ve always done what you’ve done, just drag them in to a folder on the hard drive and then imported them into my project or a bin without using juicer. I’ve not had any problems.

Thanks. That makes sense!

My understanding is that the Kona LH was designed specifically for OS X and FCP version 5. The folks at B&H and AJA told me so. You may want to check with AJA to confirm.

Thanks Rick. I have someone looking into the items you suggested.
I haven’t tried digitizing to a local disk. I will do so tomorrow to see if I have a similar problem

Correct, using RS-422. The deck is a DSR-45. Coming out via component and audio out is XLR. The DSR 300 is a 3 1/2 chip camera. Footage is non-drop frame and that is what’s chosen.
Perhaps a call to AjA is in order. Thanks for all your help.

The Sony shoots in non-drop frame mode. Could this be a problem with the time code? Do you know if there’s a setting to change to non-drop frame when importing using Kona LH? Just a thought.

I shot the footage using a Sony DSR 300 camera.
As I said in an earlier post, I did get an error message the first day because I had the deck set to local mode, not remote, and I thought that may have been the culprit. Once I restarted everything, it worked fine, not so yesterday. I would guess that if it were a timecode issue, the DV input would cause similar problems with timecode, wouldn’t you think?
Thanks for your responses.
