Thank you both, it’s much clearer now. I never thought of multiclip as effect 🙂
I’m sorry I didn’t spec machines, I didn’t think the problem could be in that.

Anyway, they are:

Mac Pro 8 x 3.0 GHz, 5 GB RAM (editing)

Mac Pro 8 x 2.8 GHz, 5 GB RAM (color correction)

I never did any conforming. Can you tell me how to do that?

[Rafael Amador] “I don’t work with those formats but I gues that you just need to heck them as progressive in the FCs Browser.”

Do you mean I can just put them in progressive sequence and work like that?

[Wayne Carey] “you could purchase a DV camera but why if its the same price or close to HDV.”

I know, that’s why I’m asking about HDV 🙂

Great! Since new Canon A1 is cheaper than new PD170, I don’t really have a choice 🙂

[Bob O’Brien] “I think you may be referring to footage shot in the 24F mode…”

If someone could confirm this, it would be quite helpfull.
I don’t really need 24F mode. Well, I do for my shorts, but for that I would anyway like to use camera with 24p mode (Sony Z1U)

[walter biscardi] “First off, the Canon cameras shoot in a proprietary HDV format so you MUST use the camera to capture from. I would recommend the Sony ZR1 camera and a Sony HDV deck. But the Sony HDV format will play off any HDV deck from what I understand.”

I didn’t know that. I understood that big companies agreed about HDV and all use same one. Bastards! 🙂
Which is ZR1 camera? I couldn’t find it, did you mean Z1U? If that’s the case, you are right, that is good camera, but almost double the price than Canon. I just can’t afford $5000 camera right now.
