Can the Sony HDV A1p print to tape?

Hi Guys,
I know there are may posts about HDV and printing to tape but I have not been able to find a specific answer to this question - can the A1p, the little sister of the Z1p, be used if you want to print to tape?
I plan to buy the Black Magic Intensity Pro (unless someone screams it's a bad idea) so hopefully a lot of the HDV issues will be side stepped but in the mean time...
Has anyone managed to PTT with the A1P? What settings did you use (camera/suite)? I am Pal 1050i if that makes any difference.
I just want to hear that one lone voice saying yes - I have done it.

No reply but I sorted it out. When you've got all your settings right (easy setup) and the plugs in the right slots and have refreshed the A/V devices and set the print to tape ready to go then it will only show the image in the camera viewfinder when you are actually recording (using record control in the play/edit mode.

  • Can the imagerunner 1025 multifunction printer use the scanner scanner function on a 64 bit pc?

    I needed to restore our computer to factory settings and now I can't find a scanner driver for our Imagerunner 1025iF.   I have a 64 bit PC running Windows 7.  The install wizard only allows installation of the printer and fax.  Searching the internet for the ScanGear driver only came up with 32 bit drivers which don't seem to work on this computer.  There is nothing on the Canon website.

  • Can the Canon Pixma MX922 print pictures at only 4 x 6? If so, any other recommendations?

    I am looking for a printer that primarily prints photos. I am looking for one that can various sized photos, hopefully from wallet size, to bigger. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    OK. Understood. Easy Print Pro, which comes with the printer, will allow various layouts. You could do multiple wallet size on 4x6 or letter size.

  • Can the Paragraph Catalog be printed or exported?

    Is there a way to print or export the Paragraph Catalog of a FM document? My goal is to compare the list of tags available in one document to those of another.
    Thanks so much for any insights.

    Thanks, Mike. I never even thought of RoboCapture. I think these are
    FM9 and FM10 files I'm working with.
    I would add that, if it's not just the Paragraph Catalog you want
    listed, but a list of the items in the Paragraph Designer, then check
    into the Format List plugin from Squidds:
    <http://www.squidds.de/en/products/squidds-produkte/toolbox-for-framemaker.html>
    Go to the link above and scroll down to the "Orderform US" link. It will
    show a PDF that lets you order only the tools you need and not the whole
    Toolbox.
    Format List pumps all the data from the Paragraph and Character
    Designers into a table that makes it really easy to compare your various
    formats at a glance. There is a free trial.

  • Unable to export with Sony HDV

    Newbie needs help!
    I am using the Sony HDV 1080 recorder Model HDR-HC5.I can import into Final cut pro 7.0.1. and I am connecting via firewire/i link. But I can not export. The camera turns on as if it is going to record but the screen stays blue and it recorde nothing. What I am I doing wrong?? I have tried all kinds of different settings but nothing is working?
    The sequence is 1920x1080 HDTV 1080i (16:9) not sure what else you might need...

    okay. did you capture via firewire? did you capture as HDV, or did you convert to any other codec when you captured?
    If you captured HDV, then having your footage in an HDV sequence, rendering/conforming, should do the trick, and you'll be able to export.
    Exporting to HDV via FW is time consuming, because it needs to rebuild the GOP structure and create a new HDV file to send out to the tape.

  • Unable to import with Sony HDV

    I am using the Sony HDV 1080 recorder Model HDR-HC5. I have tried every possible setting, read hours worth of forums, read the user manuals and Googled everything I can think of but I can't get Final cut pro 7.0.1 to log and capture or even see my camera to import footage... I am NOT a pro just a regular person trying to edit some movies! UGH... Can someone please walk me through the set up of this camera before it ends up in the trash! ;0)
    thanks

    Hi -
    Also I believe this camera will record both HD and SD formats depending on which was selected at the time of recording. You should check the tapes to verify they are recorded in the format you expect them to be, as it will make a difference which Easy Set Up you choose.
    And, as David has said, you must connect the camera and computer via firewire, which Sony calls iLink.
    USB cannot be used with tape based cameras.
    Hope this helps.

  • Final Cut Pro 7 not recognizing Sony HDV Deck on older 2008 version MacPro's

    I am trying to connect a Sony HDV deck to Final Cut Pro version 7 on an older 2008 version MacPro.  The problem was with the firewire mini port on the back i believe because i used a different deck which was the same model - but the only difference was it had a firewire 400 port instead of mini firewire port.  Anyway, the deck with the 400 firewire port worked for logging and capturing, etc... (this also worked when i re-tested it on the 2008 MacPro)  Im wondering if anyone else has had problems with the firewire mini port on the Sony HDV deck because it seems like almost every HDV deck i have with mini firewire has problems connecting to final cut pro or any editing application.  I know now that the deck i had in question the mini port is not working correctly but is there a way to fix this or prevent the cable - deck from terminating the connection with the mini cable being used.  I dont need an answer to the deck problem because i figured it out but just wondering if anyone has some insight on this deck problem.  Thank you...

    >I dont need an answer to the deck problem ... just wondering if anyone has some insight on this deck problem
    So you don't want an answer, just insight. OK, I'll give it a go.  I've had several Sony VTRs with the 4pin Firewire port (proper name for what you refer to as "mini"), which is the same type of port that most DV and HDV cameras use as well.  One of the main things you need to be wary of is plugging in and unplugging a Firewire cable while either the device or the computer is powered on.  I know that marketing hype claims that Firewire is hot swap-able, but it really isn't safe to do so.  The pins in both the 4 pin connector as well as the 6 pin connectors are very close together and if they aren't aligned exactly right with the socket, can easily cause arching and damage a Firewire port on either or both ends.  Is that the kind of insight you were looking for?

  • Does the pixel size affect printing in iphoto?

    Have trouble printing in iphoto.  I can view the photo in iphoto fine.  When I print, I am just getting a small corner of the picture.  Can the pixel size affect printing?

    Set your ruler increments to pixels Preferences>Units & Increments. You can fill the text box with placeholder text Type>Fill with Placeholder text and get a word count from the Info panel with Show Options turned on from the flyout.
    From the Transform panel you can set a text box's width and height

  • HDV print to tape? Help.

    I can't seem to get my HDV sequence to print to tape. I am new to the whole HDV thing so bear with me. I am using a sony HVR-V1U.
    Sequence Settings:
    Frame size: 1440x1080
    Pixel Aspect Ratio: HD 1440 x 1080
    Editing Time Base: 29.97 (can't Change)
    QT video Settings
    Compressor: HDV 1080p24
    When I go to print to video it says: This sequence is not compatible with print to video.
    Thank you.

    Well, all I can think of is, are you trying to print a whole sequence from your time line? If so, make sure the timeline window is activated, but nothing in the time line should be selected.
    If you are trying to print just a portion of the time line, you can mark in and out points on the time line itself. Either way, the time line window should be the active one.
    You shouldn't have to hit record on the camera; check the 'Start Recording Automatically' box in the Print to Video window.
    Also, with the V1U in VCR mode, go in to the REC menu and see if the DV/HDV record in setting is set to AUTO. If it is, set it to HDV only.
    Back in the Print to Video window, what happens for me is, I set everything up, and click OK. Then, the render/conform progress bar comes up for a minute; at the end of that, my Mac's screen goes black, and a dialog comes up saying everything is ready to go, and I should click OK to allow the Mac to start playing, and the camera to start recording. When I do that, the green dot and pause bars come up on the camera, which goes into standby mode; a couple of seconds later, the red record dot comes up, and it begins to record.
    I don't know if I mentioned this before, but all other firewire cables should be disconnected from your Mac when you're doing this.
    It sounds like you have the connection established, if you can see the color bars and slate on the camera LCD; maybe there is an issue with what you have selected in the timeline to play back.

  • Can't preview 1920x1080 timeline on HDTV via Sony HDV deck - help!

    I am trying to play back from my 1920x1080 HDTV timeline (from FCP on MacBook) on an LG HDTV by connecting to a Sony HDV deck via firewire 800, and then going out from the deck via component to the tv – however, I am having problems not being able to get a clean video signal & it seems that the deck cannot process the video stream properly.  After scouring the internet and various forums, the only conclusion that I can reach is that because the HD video needs to be processed, it is impossible to properly view the footage back via this method without something like a Blackmagic Decklink card/conversion syste.  This is quite a big problem for me, as I will probably in the future have to use the same method just to play out to tape (on the HDV deck) and no matter what settings I have tried, it just doesn't want to work!
    Any hints or tips to bypass this without the need for any other external hardware?  Would something like  a Mini DVI to VGA Adapter Cable help at all – we have one of those.

    FW800 can't stream full uncompressed HD video, which is what the HDTV needs.  You need an HDMI connection.  You're going to need an AJA Knoa LHi or some other such card.  You may want to look into a less expensive option such as the MXO2 if you only want to see the image on an HDTV and not on a qualified Production Monitor.
    Going from FCP back to the deck is a totally different issue and not a problem.  HDV is highly compressed so it can stream via FW connection.  FCP using the Print To Tape function will take your Sequence and send a native HDV signal back to your deck, just when it captured from the deck.
    HDTV will not be good enough for evaluating image quality and color correction, FYI.  It will only give you an idea of what your vide will look like on that specific brand and model of HDTV.
    DVI and VGA have nothing to do with what you're trying to do.  They are only for going out to a computer monitor (not the same as a TV) or a projection system.
