(by the way, my last question is really only addressed to the FCP crowd, not the BM crowd as Easy Setups are an FCP thing only…)

someone provided me with the answer of checking my View>Video Playback setting that it should match my clips of HDV1080i…
working great now, but it seems like that would’ve been part of the Easy Setup?

THANKS! You are a wise one…i hadn’t looked at that one. Seems like it would’ve set up with the Easy Setups? Oh well, working fine now. Thanks again…

i just went ahead and dubbed it all to Beta, then captured normally. it looks great, but, of course, took twice as long. from your guys’ experience, are you getting “more stable” VHS by running the VHS deck through a TBC or black burst generator, as well as then by-passing the dub-to-Beta workaround? just wondering if the added expense of the bb generator would be worth it, since the vast majority of my work is to and from Beta and i have no sync problems now without the bb gen. . .

Mega dittos back to you, and to all the rest on these forums.
Have a Merry and Holy Christmas! I also wish a Happy Hanukkah to all…and i like to remind us Christians (to whomever this may apply), that Jesus never celebrated Christmas, yet He DID celebrate Hanukkah. Just a little reminder that might help us be a bit more understanding of “Holidays” (“Holy Days”).
Have a great whatever-you-celebrate!

i found a satisfactory solution. i put the still graphic into it’s own sequence, then stretched it out to 6 seconds in length, then just imported this nested sequence as a clip into my main sequence. i also had to make a copy of the main shot/clip which would be the background, and scoot it up a level so that this copied layer would be on the same layer as the supered graphic. then did the page peel between this layer 2 shot (which is identical to the track below it) and the graphic to be supered. it worked great, after fooling with the peel settings, it came out almost exactly as what i saw inside my little pinhead.

thank God for creating the “autosave vault”. only lost about an hour of work by using the previously saved version. up and running, but i wish i could figure out which file caused the problem…
-
i’m in the same boat. have just trashed prefs, no change. what did you end up doing to get around this one? anyone else have any ideas? i’ve worked on this sequence all day (don’t it figure?) and was about to render when i was told, “operation not allowed”, then “out of memory”.

thanks Ross,
ya, that seemed like the most obvious thing, and is the first thing i tried. that is, just putting the original captured QT clips onto a DVD, then they will play in QT on a PC…but i was wanting to edit the originals just slightly (adding some titles, tightening up some of the shots, etc.), and was trying to find the most “loss-less” way to go out of FCP to DVD then to a PC (or Mac). basically, sending some stock footage shots to a stock footage dealer.

i would like for it to be high enough quality that they can edit it as they wish…
