HI Phil,
Sorry to sound thick.
Please can you outline how you did this again,
from the timeline using v FCP 6.6 to tape on sony HDFX7E pal, and does it matter that the original clips are in diff formats ( its a doc using archival footage and HD )
I hope you can help, Valerie -

FCP V5 was easy , you could just crash record off timeline, FCP 6.6 wont -
Your solution to go to clients place to upload is perfect, My client refused to believe it would take forever to transfer 8 hrs hd over from FCP to Premiere ( god knows how anyway) he insisted I do this for nothing, because his ‘expert’ mate kept telling him It was a easy , fast process. From now on I will always go to the clients place. Logging hours for time spent here wasn’t working. Thank you for very good advice.

Have any others ever been through this? I did an 8hr tape HD film shoot using 2 HD cams and ops. The client said he does editing himself in Premiere and requested the master tapes, as uncompressed footage. I thought he had access to an HD cam as he asked for the tapes to upload the footage and a decent computer. I backed up the tapes on FCP 6.6 as tape insurance. Client now says he wants to edit off my external Hard Drive not tape as he doesn’t have an HD cam. I would have lent him my cam but I need it. His mate says its easy to convert 8hrs of HD footage from FCP 6 to QTSCMOV in one day.
I suggested dvds would be a safer platform for him to use but he wants the uncompressed hd footage which must work in Premiere on a slow lap top. He refuses to pay for the time it will take to convert it because he thinks its quick and easy. He wont go out and hire an HD cam either, so Im stuck! I only got paid for the filming.
