Tape based 72op from Varicam and HDX900 are fine. Come in straight over FireWire. Varicam flags are also observed when coming over FireWire. Avid can capture normal or advanced as needed.

Click in the area where the other column heading are at but off to the right hand side where none exist. Type in desired name of columns and hit return.

Can you crop to 4:3 during the encode?

What project type are you in? That setting doesn’t affect anything as far as timing of frames, locators, timecode, EDL’s, or lists of any kind. It only sets the playback rate of the timeline to be 24fps. If in a 23.976 project, the audio sample rate will now be 48.048kHz if dumping to a digibeta deck or other digital deck, the clocks will not match potentially causing artifacts in the high frequencies.

Let us know. If you are in a 23.976 project, I would recommend leaving the edit playback rate at 23.976.

Usually for film to tape transfers, you should have received a transfer log as either ALE, FLEx, etc. that you import then batch capture. In most cases, the transfers are done with “A” frame falling on timecodes ending on 0 and 5 such as 00, 05, 10, 15, 20, and 25. If you log on those, you should be fine. Pullin is an essential part of the capture process and has been in the product since 1992…
You can also set the 00:00:00:00 to “A” frame in the Film/24 settings to automate this during capture on the fly.

When you say, “imported”. do you mean capture? Or do you really mean imported?
If captured – what were the original sources shot on? Film transfer, HD down convert, etc.” If so, make sure the timecode to pulldown cadence relationship is correctly set for the material being cpatured.
More details will help refine an snswer.

It is 8 bit, 4;2:2. And yes, 14:1 plays on older Meridien systems.

You can export a FCP Batch file and import via Avid Log Exchange to create a .ale file. Import the ALE file with all the metadata.

You need a Mojo to access the 1:1 capture. DV25 would equal the quality of the source tapes since that is the format being used. 1:1 won’t get you better quality if your sources are DV to start with, it would only maintain a higher quality if you were planning on doing a lot of generational type renders.
