IF you’re comfortable or feel FCP has the tools you need, why do you use PP?

Best solution is to delete the second part of the cut then pull the first part across, tiresome and requires mouse work, so not good for speed.

Getting off the point a little gere but there are other options for capturing HDV:
Lumiere HD – $179
DVHS (or AVC) Mpeg Stream Clip – free -
Hi Shane,
Thank you for clearing that up. The final output will be to digi beta, I was thinking that it would be fine to export it back to DVCAM from the timeline (as I do not have a digi beta deck) then from there transfer it to DIGI Beta.
I have to say I am so impressed with the level of expertise and how helpful everyone has been. I have been working a lot with HDV & FCP5 so I will keep an eye for any queires regarding that and hope I can give back to the COW what I have learnt.
All the best!
Peter.

Have you tried setting up the time line to a custom apple intermediate timeline with res set at 1440×1080? If that works then it’s is finder that is confusing the issue.

Nice one Mark,
you did lose me the first time I read through your reply but I understand what you are getting at after reading it again. I am sure you will be quite horrified to hear that I do not have a DVCAM deck and therefore will be capturing directly from the PD150 which I am sure is another potential minefield related to your reply.
I am going to start capturing over the weekend, unfortunately for you guys that may mean there will be a few more posts relating to this thread!!
Pete.

Hi Nick,
Thank you for such a rapid response. The way in which you have described the process seems so easy! The only question is how can it upgrade the dv footage to uncompressed? Would the captured content not have to be uncompressed in the first place?
KR,

Great thanks! The article is more geared to FCP 4, althoug I am using 5 i am happy that the media manager interface has not chnaged that greatly.
Thanks again.
