Capturing with xdcam

Hi,
what setting do I use to capture from xdcam??? ( optical disk)
Thanks for any insight you can provide!
Leigh

There's also a variety of 3rd party products that help with XDCam proxy ingestion into Final Cut. One such one is Flip4Mac (i think it's called). Haven't used it myself but have read some very good reviews of the product.
Depending on the model of your deck, the proxy import speed can vary. The lower end models import speed is limited by a Firewire 400 connection. The higher end models have a gigabit ethernet connection effectively doubling the import speed if I recall the reviews correctly. The higher end models can also be setup in a remote location with remote control used through the gigabit ethernet port.
Also for deck configuration/setup, menu option 215 is used to set the deck for proxy import (FAM) or act as a normal video deck (AV/C). If using it as a video deck, option 214 is required as it sets whether deck control is done through the RS-422 port or through the Firewire 400 port.

  • Quicktime Reference with XDCam HD

    I'm trying to export QT Ref clips from an XDCam HD timeline.
    Seems no faster than a regular export, with the same results as self-contained movie. Is it possible to export reference files with xdcam originals?
    Thanks anyone!

    I don't believe so.
    XDCam (like its little brother, HDV) is an Open GOP MPEG-2 format and QuickTime doesn't really like Open GOP formats. Capturing to/importing them is fine, but exporting within the FCP/QT ecosystem (to the best of my knowledge) isn't possible.
    So, when exporting movies out of FCP as HDV or XDCam, FCP converts those Open GOP files to closed GOP. In other words, no reference movies since FCP/QT is actually converting the files a bit, resulting in the extended processing time and full-length movies.

    then u cant give same for other GR it will give an error at this time u can provide excise invoice as (123.).
    Means one dot at beginnig or at the end.
    Note : Hence forth for same excise invoice u should have only one GR.

  • Excise Invoice is captured with another Purchase Order

    Hi
    We have a scenrio, transfer the material from debond plant to mfg plant after imported material in kept in Bonding area. STO po is raised to from imported plant to mfg plant with Imported duties as delivery costs.
    Bill of entry is provided for all the materials as one. While capturing the excise amount at line item level is difficult so, captured at first line item level as total because material is Same (Material is Split valuated materials with 3 batches). First GR is done properly but next GR for 2nd and 3 rd line items are refered with earlier Bill of entry, system promprts the error message "Excise Invoice is captured with another Purchase Order".
    Please do the needful.
    Regards
    Mohan

    Hi,
    Please be informed that for one a GR document wrt PO only one excise invoice can exist.
    Ex PO-4500000010
    GR no 5000000010
    only one excise can exist and if the same excise invoice is reffered to another GR with the same PO system will throw an error message. Please let me know the exact business requirement in detail.

  • Log and capture with Sony A1U camera, Sony HD700 HDV deck

    Hello,
    I am still having problems capturing HDV from a Sony GV HD700.
    It sees the deck, can capture some, but then crashes. Anybody have experience

  • I can capture with iMovie 6, but not with FCP 6.0 ('no data from device')

    I didn't have any problem with FCP 5, but am getting nowhere with FCP 6 using the same settings (I think). FCP seems to see the camcorder, but can't control it and, even if I manually start the camera, reports 'no data from device' when I do a 'Capture Now'. Device control isn't critical, but I'd sure like to find out why it doesn't see the data stream from the camera (Sony HDR-HC7 / FW400). I must be missing a setting some place, but sure can't find it. On the other hand, I have full device control and zero dropout capture with iMovie (exact same hardware configuration). Any ideas?

    canopus works fine, as well as all other devices.
    i have tons of tapes and tried a few, none worked.
    i tried to capture on both my new imac and my mbpro, no way.
    but now i'm sure there is something wrong with the sony handycam, i tried to import with my old final cut studio, and it's not possible, also. fc pro says: waiting for timecode.
    so i'm confused now. does the sony dcr-trv not send a timecode? maybe, and this will explain the troubles. but on the other hand i imported successfully some footage with exact this device.
    maybe i used the canopus then to correct the timebase, i can't remember how i did it. but this would mean i have to accept loss of quality, since i have to connect the sony with s-vhs with the canopus and convert it.
    right now i'm importing a tape with imovie and will have a look how the result is, but as far as i remember, the audio has to be re-rendered when importing in fcpx…
    My finger is pointing to a Timecode issue.
    Is timecode enabled in the camera?
    Is it continuous on the tape?

  • Issues Capturing with Final Cut Express

    Hi
    I am currently having issues capturing with Final Cut Express. I am using a Firewire 800 gold speed cable 9pin/4pin with my Sony LSF-S58 camera. I use mini DV tapes and usually capture on other computers with no problems. However this time I am using Final Cut Express version 4.0.1 along with a Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter so it'll connect with my MAC Book Pro (Operating system OS X 10.6.8). The issue is when I open Final Cut's capture option there is a message at the bottom that says "No Communicatin" I have tried various settings within easy set-up and nothing seems to work as well as browsing this help board along with others looking for the answer. Any help anyone can provide would be great. Thanks.

    When I Google LSF-S58, I get a Sony Lens Hood, not a camera. Are you recording in HD or SD?
    Have you used the Thunderbolt to Firewire convertor successfully on your computer with other devices?
    Have you used the Thunderbolt port successfully with other Thunderbolt devices?
    I don't know if this is applicable to your computer, but there is a Thunderbolt software update for 10.6.8 here:

  • Capture with Scene Detect: Clip Name Keeps Changing

    I am editing weddings and my raw footage is usually on 3 tapes. I capture with Scene Detect checked and I name the clip "Clip", so Premiere labels each clip as Clip 01, Clip 02, Clip 03, etc. But when I put in my 2nd tape, Premiere starts labelling them Clip 01 1, Clip 02 1, Clip 03 1, etc. How can I get Premiere to continue from the last number of the previous tape, (the same way that Scenalyzer does automatically)?

    How can I get Premiere to continue from the last number of the previous tape
    You can't.  Once you stop capture, PP will always restart the numbering, even if it's from the same tape.
    What I do is use Bridge to Batch Rename the clips.

  • I am attempting to convert 8mm video cassettes to dvd using a video cassette player, elgato video capture with rca/usb connections to the mac, editing in imovie and burning on idvd. The picture quality is awful. What can I do?????

    I am attempting to convert 8mm video cassettes to dvd using a video cassette player, elgato video capture with rca/usb connections to the mac then editing in imovie and burning dvd-r using idvd. The picture quality is awful. What can I do??????

    At what point is the video quality bad?  Is it bad on capture?  I would recommend using an s-video 1394 firewire converter instead.  They capture the video at a higher bit rate.  If you have a lot of 8mm tapes to capture, invest in a stand alone DVD recorder.  They capture and compress in one shot.  If you need to rip it back from the DVD into iMovie again, I would recommend using DVDxDV.

  • Working with XDCAM HD in Media Browser window (CS6)

    Is it just me, or is this unusably slow?
    I have a PDW-F70 deck hooked up via Firewire to my PC (Windows 7 64-bit) but when I mount a XDCAM HD disc and try to browse the contents in Premiere's Media Browser window (or in Predulde's Ingest window) then it takes what seems like forever to download and display the thumbnails and low res proxies. Is Premiere trying to do someting different?  It's so incredibly slow that I'm thinking it might actually be trying to download and cache the full hi-res media before letting me browse ... but when it finally does finish, once the clip thumbnails do eventually display, then it is still taking forever to display them in the source/external display if and when I select one in the browser window ... and heaven help me if I try to actually play one of these clips.
    Does this scenario sound at all familar to anyone? I'm guessing I have a basic settings issue ... either that or I am maybe just misunderstanding how this function works with XDCAM HD in Premiere.
    For what it's worth, using Grass Valley's Edius app with the exact same hardware, setup and connections etc and browsing the media using their own "Source Browser" window (which is basically their version of Premiere's Media Browser window), then I can almost instantly view thumbnails and browse the XDCAM HD low res proxies, make my selections and import whats needed ... same goes if I'm using Sony's own XDCAM Browser app.
    Clearly I'm a bit lost at this point and am hoping someone can help me out.
    Thanks in advance
    Andy

    This is a known issue in PP.  Adobe has elevated the priority, but for now you'll just have to wait until thumbs are draw for better responsiveness.
    In the meantime, please do report the bug as unusable for you.  The more that do, the more urgency will be attached to a fix.

  • Tethered Capture with 3.4.1 x64 and D7000

    Hello everybody,
    I am starting this discussion about issues with Tethered Capture with LR 3.4.1 and Nikon D7000.
    I tested the Capture on 3 different PCs: a Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit and two Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.
    I can properly do capture with the 32bit version of LR, even thought I am no longer able to browse the files on the SD card after a shooting session with Tether. I suppose this has something to do with exclusive access priority, but this is actually not the big problem I am encountering.
    On Windows 7 x64 machines, it appears LR 64bit is not able to do Tethered Capture as in the capture window I only see "No camera detected".
    I did a search on the Internet and I found just a few examples of this issue with apparently no explanation or solutions, but I think this is a general problem as it happens on two different Windows 7 x64 installations, but not on the 32bit one.
    My D7000 already has the latest firmware installed and I already tried different USB cables to be sure this is not a hardware malfunction.
    I am now really lost to this problem and I do not know how to proceed in troubleshooting or solving it.
    Anybody can help?
    Thanks a lot and have a nice day

  • Premiere Pro CS5 not responding after 55 minutes of capture with intensity shuttle

    Hi and thank you for the valuable resources on this forum.
    I am capturing analogue video into Premiere Pro CS5 using he Blackmagic Intensity Shuttle (with Time Base Corrector in the video path).  My captures are stopping at 54 or 55 minutes when the computer becomes non responsive.  This has happened with the Blackmagic motion jpeg codec as well as the 10 bit YUV capture. Same thing happens if I capture with media express (the blackmagic capture software)
    I have tweaked my system as per many of the recommendations in the forum.
    Running CS5 5.03, autosave set to 10 minutes (same problem with no autosave or autosave at 20 minutes)
    Windows 7 64 bit fully updated
    i7 - 930 cpu
    Gigabyte x58A - UDP5 (Revision 1)
    24 Gb Ram
    Nvidia 470 - MSI with the twin Frozr cooling solution.
    Restore off, indexing off, windows search off,
    Followed tips from forum and Viper regarding optimizing system
    3 Hard drives
    System on standard Sata 2 drive
    Project capture to OCZ Vertex 3 120 g SSD drive (nice bit of gear) running on Sata 3 controller
    Page file on another hard drive
    Norton 360 unistalled
    Anything else I could find unistalled or turned off.
    Firmware and drivers for on board USB latest from Driver Station as per Blackmagic Recommendations.
    Very succesful capture of things shorter than 55 minutes but I have some longer things I would like to capture in one go.
    I have used process explorer to watch what happens.  Nothing special that I can identify in terms of processes but cpu seems to be going to 100%.
    With progessive tweaks the problems remains the same.
    I am not aware of any file size limits with Premire Pro or Blackmagic - are there some?
    Considering reinstall but would greatly appreciate any insights.  My first post so I hope I have provided the right info to help you help me.
    Thank you
    Andrew

    Good that you got it fixed... bridging device drivers have cause problems clear back to the computer version of the stone ages
    I still have a Pinnacle Dv500 card (used via dual-boot with WinXP and Premiere 6x) that went through several device driver versions to get everything working right
    While everything is working right... make a full "picture" of your hard drive to external USB drive to make recovering easy in case something goes wrong
    Hardware crashes or virus infections happen, so you should buy software to make a full
    backup of your hard drive to an external USB hard drive... plus, making step-by-step
    backups during a new install or major program addition makes it easy to go back a step
    if something doesn't work
    This backup and then restore is, of course, only to the same computer with a new drive
    (or the same drive as long as you don't mind writing over everything) since doing a
    restore to a new computer won't work due to Windows and many programs having activation
    information that is keyed to your hardware (which is why Windows will force you to RE-
    Activate if you change very much hardware)
    The product I use is at http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/image-for-linux.htm
    Image runs off of a bootable CD via Linux (the Zip you download includes a program to
    make the bootable CD) and it reads EVERYTHING on the drive, even the hidden
    registration information, so everything is restored when needed... and you may restore
    the image to a brand new drive in case of a crash, and not have to re-install anything
    Please note that I own no part of Image, and I don't get a referral fee (that is just a
    plain web link) but I use the program and it has saved me a LOT of trouble when I had a
    hard drive die... and I was able to restore everything and not have to re-install or
    re-activate a single program, from Windows on up

  • Can not capture with CS6 and blackmagic multibridge pro on HP Z820

    This is the setup:
    Z820 and Windows 7 pro
    Multibridge Pro and driver 9.7.7
    CS6.0.5
    In premiere I can not capture via the Multibridge. The app crash when entering capture mode. I can not change setting in my capture device.
    On the same PC I CAN capture with Media Composer v7 and BM Media Express.
    I've tried several version of the BM driver, no changes.
    The BM PCIe card is in slot 1 and the PC bios I have update to v3.50.
    Anyone having the same experience?
    Regards
    Danny

    Thanks for the reply. I know YouTube is not the way to check quality but it shows the stutter in playback. The quality wasn't the issue and it is filmed with my phone. The video shows what it needs to show.
    Disk setup is a ddp server (check http://www.dynamicdrivepool.com/ for info) connected with 2 network cables for optimal speed.
    Video cars is a NVIDIA Quadro K4000.
    Premiere Pro CC is up to date with the latest version.
    Export settings? I think you mean sequence settings:
    For the record: I'm not trying to play a sequence with multiple layers of video of different codecs and loaded with effects. It's just a video chopped to pieces and an adjustment layer with some simple effects. The way Adobe is advertising the performance of Premiere Pro, one would think that couldn't be a problem for any Z820. Or that's what I was thinking. Hope you or anyone can help.

  • Can I capture with Final Cut Pro and edit in Premiere Pro?

    Since it appears that Premiere has issues with capture - at least for me but as I see it for others as well - and that I can capture with iMovie, can I consider using Final Cut Pro for capture - then cross to Adobe Premiere and the suite for editing, finalizing ? Or is there a problem to copy the shots/files from one program to the other (would they remain identified clearly so I could just import shots into Premiere afterward ?)
    Thanks
    Rob

    Hi Rob,
    When you capture HDV in FCP it creates a specific Apple HDV codec. This is a codec that is only available if FCP, Motion or Compressor is installed.
    The two workarounds would be to use Premiere Pro on the Mac with one of the above mentioned apps installed on the same system or convert to a codec that can be read in Premiere.
