Hmm, but it wasn’t really captured at a certain frame rate. It was captured as individual scans 1:1. So if I create an 18fps interpreted sequence (which I have done) and then try to get that to play at 23.98, what would the workflow be? Would I need something like Twixtor to do this properly? Reason I’m asking is so that I can get a nice dvd output of these film transfers. I realize that for any computer/web use, 18fps is the way to go.

Hi Rafael,
Thanks for your response. Yes, the issue you mention is definitely one of the problems we’re having. We been tweaking the settings since I posted and we still can’t get pure black. Another is that the unit measures the RGB clipping in percent instead of mV so it’s hard to know what the unit is even clipping to. I actually wanted to post this in the Broadcast forum but couldn’t find it…I’ll have to look again.

Quick follow-up…we got it so the gamut errors aren’t popping up anymore by fixing some settings on the WVR 5200, but our individual RGB levels still look too much out of range. The diamond display looks good at 0-700mV and there are no errors so is the fact that the legalizer can’t seem to handle the individual RGB levels even a problem? We checked some old master tapes that had gotten by APT’s QC and they, too, had individual RGB levels that were way out, but no gamut errors overall.
