Nope. How do I do that?

[Mark Hammett]

So should I delete the version 5 files from my applications folder and then install v.6? What’s the best way to go about it?

[Mark Hammett]

Ok, that sounds tricky. Would it be better to just install v.6 over the top of v.5? Will it just write over it? Will all my old sequences etc. still work OK? I’m only concerned because it’s not an ‘upgrade’ as such. It’s a new full version.

Well, thanks for your help. In your earlier post when you told me how to get the 25fps settings… I replied…

“Ok, once I’ve opened my ‘copy’ of my new sequence, where do I change the frame rate? In the field that says ‘Editing Timebase’?

And then how do I save it as “HDV-72025p”?

I’ve tried duplicating a sequence and changing the ‘Editing Timebase’ to 25, but the camera is still not being recognised for capture”

[Mark Hammett]

There doesn’t appear to be any 25p settings. And no 1280×720 settings either. I’d love to know where they are in FCP v.5

Hmmm, I can get it to capture, just not correctly. It looks like it’s capturing OK, then when I play it back, the footage is playing at high speed and the sound is playing at normal speed so there is surely some kind of compatibility issue? Would using a more up to date FCP (6 or 7) solve this?

OK, thanks… but I’m using FCP5 which doesn’t seem to have the option for Apple Pro Res…. or indeed any 25fps settings. Any ideas?

[Mark Hammett]

Yeah, but I’m still not sure which option I should use for “HDV-HD25p”?
