FCP workflow for Sony HVR A1E

Any recommendations for a suitable workflow when capturing HD footage from a Sony HVR A1E camera onto FCP 6.0 and exporting sequence as a quicktime file. It films 1080i and is PAL.
I've had major problems with image quality, ghosting, blurred motion etc with my exported quicktime files. i can see the interlacing clearly!
My easy setup choices were:
Format: HD, Rate: 25fps, Use: HDV 1080i50 Firewire basic.
My sequence settings are the same.
For exporting i've been simply doing 'export as quicktime file', and i've left it as current settings.
why am i getting all these probs. Ideally someone using a similar video cam can answer this.
many thanks.

Dear Nick
I've got the same camera and have not had any such problems.
The HVR A1e can either record audio from the external rifle mic to ch1 or to both ch1 and ch2. You need to check this setting. I think the default is to record to both channels. Let me know if this is the problem.
good luck

  • Capture from Sony HVR-A1E

    Hi
    I have Final Cut Pro 5.1.4. I recently acquired a Sony HVR-A1E. It shoots in HDV 1080i.
    I'm trying to work out how I can capture the video using FCP?
    Is there an appropriate capture preset and device control preset?
    For capture preset various things are listed such as HDV, DVCPRO HD 1080i50 48KHz, DVCPRO HD 1080i60 48KHz and others.
    The camera connects to my Intel iMac by USB. I notice that FCP seems to list Firewire throughout its device control preset menu. Is it possible to have device control for USB?
    Thank you for any assistance you can give

    Hi
    I've found the FireWire port
    They've called it "iLink".
    A bit of "googling" with "iLink" has shown me that this is commonly used on Sony Camcorders.
    I have used Sony Camcorders before and but they've been hired ones and I think it has always been that the person hiring it out has pointed at the "iLink" port and called it the "FireWire" port, so I've never caught on that this different name exists.
    I'm buying the right cable next...
    When it is plugged in and working (touch wood) I will come back and do this "helpful" and "solved" thing.

  • FCP 6 and Sony HVR-V1U 24p; can't remove 3:2 pulldown or convert to 24 fps

    Hi, all, I'm hoping someone can help me out here. I recently purchased a Sony HVR-V1U HD camera that has a native 24p setting (using 60i with 3:2 pulldown to store on miniDV tape).
    I have just started experimenting with pulling footage off this camera into Final Cut Pro (6.0.3), and am having some problems getting things to work using log-and-capture. Specifically, it seems I can either choose the ProRes 422 setting and effectively use a "capture now" capturing method--which gets me native 24 (or 23.98 if 24pa is used) frames per second--or I can use the 60i setup--which gets me the standard log-and-capture window where I can actually log my clips, but brings them in at 29.97 fps.
    I would make due with the 60i setting since that allows me to batch capture clips I want from my footage... however, I am not able to alter the frame rate or remove the 3:2 pulldown using cinema tools (I get a "unable to find clips with 29.97 fps" error, when the properties clearly list the clips as having 29.97 fps).
    Can anyone help here? I'm quite accustomed to using the log and capture window so the "capture now" method seems very inconvenient; but if I can't get the clips transcoded to 24fps somehow I'm not sure what else I can do.
    Thanks in advance!

    Capturing HDV uses a somewhat different workflow than regular DV and other I Frame formats (if that is what you have been used to so far).
    [Read this|http://documentation.apple.com/en/finalcutpro/professionalformatsandworkfl ows/#chapter=2%26section=0] to make sure that you are doing it right and not missing something along the way.

  • Help on FCP workflow for a shortform project shot on EX-1 with mixed media

    I am about to start the editing process on a project shot with the EX-1. It will be a recruiting video for students aimed primarily at DVD distribution and web video.
    It is a shortform project...about 15-20 minutes in duration. About 90% of the footage I am editing will be off the EX-1 (1080 24p). The other 10% is some HDV footage shot at 1080i at 29.97 and some NTSC 4:3 footage 29.97.
    I wanted to ask the best way to approach the project and get some forum input.
    There will no heavy duty video filters or manipulation. Some lower thirds to identify, etc.
    What would users suggest as the sequence settings for the editing timeline in FCP? (If it's a 24p XDCAM EX timeline (no transcoding for the EX-1 footage), then I worry about how FCP will drop frames on the HDV footage and the NTSC footage to make it 24fps). Would it be better to have a XDCAM timeline that is 1080 29.97i (and maybe that setting will better integrate all the footage? Drop everything into that timeline?
    Or should I convert all the raw footage to ProRes 422 before editing begins? If so, at what frame rate/format for the three types of material I have?
    This is my first foray into mixed media on the timeline...and that's why I am asking assistance on the best way to approach it. Trying to make for the least number of headaches!
    Thanks for any help you can offer...
    John

    NO no no no no no no no no no no no!!!!
    DO NOT USE ProRes 4444! Just because it has a higher number and higher data rate does NOT mean that it is appropriate for editing. What is it with people going "it is bigger, therefore it MUST be better." It isn't.
    Regular ProRes 422. Not HQ, NOT 444. 4444 is meant as an ANIMATION codec replacement for embedded alpha channel work, and HQ is for 10-bit and 2K workflows. The EX is an 8-bit codec, so ProRes 422 is the way to go.

  • Lastest FCP Workflow for Canon 5DM2 and 7D ??

    I recently made the decision to go 100% with Final Cut Pro over Media Composer and Premier Pro and did a search on how to get the Canon 5DM2 and 7D files into Final Cut Pro for efficient editing without native image or data losses via avoidance of transfer or trans-coding losses. I did the cumbersome task of doing a couple searching and reading some 25 to 60 pages of material on the subject only to learn that one link that supposedly had a complete "solve" is a dead link for some droplets.
    So, that brings me to this post, does anyone have an updated 2011 solution that is really been determined to be the "best" solution to achieve the above goals of getting the material into FCP without losses or complications?
    Thanks in advance to those who post input to a solve.
    Message was edited by: Penn-Ohio

    Hi there,
    in terms of best way without complications, get the H.264 into pro res before you edit.
    establish your workflow as to how to do this, Shane Ross has an excellent tutorial on the subject if you do a search here.
    In terms of best quality to use, there are many ways of looking at this - for instance if you are exclusively cutting 5D material and its for web delivery then proresLT is fine, if you are cutting 5D into high end sources then prores HQ may be more suitable for yout.
    My own experience is that 5DtoRGB provides the cleanest way of transcoding (at the expense of speed) over the others (Mpegstreamclip, compressor, EOS plugin etc) but thats just my choice - theres an article here
    http://motionlifemediablog.wordpress.com/2010/09/02/5dtorgb-color-tests/
    that talks about it in more detail, and theres a good forum here
    http://www.cinema5d.com/index.php
    you may want to peruse, particularly with reference to flat gamma picture styles,
    bottom line though is to get out of H.264 asap and make sure your sequence matches your source footage!
    have fun

  • FCP Workflow for export to HDCAM SR

    I have been asked to deliver a FCP job on HDCAM-SR.
    The material will be delivered to me as Tiff / Targa sequences
    I have not used HDCAM-SR before so I am not sure what would be the best sequence codec to use.
    As I understand it, SR a 4:4:4 format, so Uncompressed 10bit 422 is out of the question.
    I am using a Kona 3 on a 3Ghz Quad, but can't see anything suitable in the codec list. Is there another codec I need to get?

    There are any number of codecs you can use. The Deck doesn't care what you use...it just receives the signal from FCP via the Kona. You can use HDV, DVCPRO HD, uncompressed, ProRes, XDCAM...anything. THe kona and the deck are codec independant. And it can be either 444 or 422. What you need to send it all depends on what the delivery requirements are.
    So what you need to figure out is what best works with what you are receiving.
    The material will be delivered to me as Tiff / Targa sequences
    Test out ProRes, uncompressed 10-bit...see what works best.
    There seems to be very little info out there about HDCAM-SR. Is it a YUV or RGB format?
    No clue...beyond my scope of knowledge. I edit DVCPRO HD primarily, and output to HDCAM (not SR). And I have the tech head engineers handle that. I am the creative cutter.

  • Jerky panning 5D vs. HVR-A1E

    I have searched across the forum but cannot see anything that specifically relates to this.  I hope someone might be able to point me in the right direction.
    I have two cmeras: Sony HVR-A1E and Canon 5D mkII.  I have shot a fair bit of video with both.  I have processed both in PP CS3 and CS4 - the problem occurs in both.
    The workflow is PAL:
    Sony - upload (either down convert to SD or not as required) into default format generated by upload (I think MPEG2).
    Canon - upload then convert with Media Encoder to P2 format (with whatever codec it chooses)
    Both are now 1080 frame size and 25fps, as is the project.
    I can edit both equally and the content looks like similar quality, apart from some obvious camera differences.  However, in editing there is a distinct difference between a pan or zoom in both cameras.  The Sony produces smooth pans and zooms, the Canon produces jerky ones.  Wondering if this was just apparent in the editing phase I created both a Flash movie and DVD from the footage, but the difference was still apparent.
    Any ideas how to fix this?
    Stuart

    Sony - uploadCanon - upload
    As a point of interest, 'upload' means to transfer from a local computer to a remote computer, such as an Internet server.  The proper terms here would be 'capture' for tape based media, and simply 'copy' or 'transfer' for solid state media.

  • Does the Sony HVR-Z5E work smoothly with Final Cut Pro?

    Depends on the version of FCP, but most likely yes.

  • Problem Capturing from Sony HVR-A1U to FCP 5 using HDV preset

    Hi,
    i just got a Sony HVR-A1U and am new to HDV. I am a professional editor so i have a full understanding of FCP. Here are my problems and questions.
    Specs of system : Power Mac Dual 2Ghz G5, 1.5GB Ram, GeForce FX 5200 64mb (Do i need a better GFX card?)
    1) When i setup the project settings at the start I selected HDV 1080i/60, it automatically states "Codec not found. You may be using a compression type without the corresponding Hardware card." I am quite sure that i have all the codecs i could have without having a hardware card, since i don't have a hardware card. Does this mean that i need a blackmagic HD card or a Kona card just to process the HD into FCP as HDV 1060i/60 even though it is through firewire?
    2) I advanced to the Log & Capture mode with the HDV settings, set properly across the board. I can not see picture, can hear audio and can log clips. When i capture it captures black for video but captures the audio just fine. I figure this is because of the missing codec which encodes HDV for FCP from Sony's HDV encoding?
    3) I can capture on the fly with the Apple Intermediate Codec, no Log and Capture screen comes up, just a dialogue box that asks me to name the clip. I understand what this codec is and find that i am stuck at the moment using this until I find a way to capture the other way. Is there anyway to have the Log and Capture screen launch using this codec?
    4) I can not have pre-logged clips using other methods and then batch capture them using the Apple Intermediate Codec, it just reverts to capturing on the fly. Anyway to Batch Capture using the Apple Intermediate Codec?
    Funny thing is that i can digitize fine in iMovie HD although i don't know what codec it is using. This totally baffles me that it works in a certain manner, i can get the job done, but not the way i should be able to. I've been using FCP since '99 and have never encountered something in this manner. And since this is my first experience with FCP and HDV i have nowhere to go from here except get some help or settle for what i can do and change my normal post-production workflow.
    A question i really want to know about is whether i need an extra hardware compnent, i know i asked that question above, and i could understand if i did. (i.e GFX card or Capture card - even though i am going through firewire)?
    I appreciate any help, i might not respond over the next couple of weeks because i am shooting in Europe and will be back stateside at the start of February, so i will not be active on this post until then. Any input would be great and when i get back i will have loads of footage that i will need to digitize, so i will be very open to help with troubleshooting as well.
    Thanks again!!!

    PowerMac G5 DP 2Ghz, 1.5GB Ram, GeForce FX 5200, 20" Cinema Display   Mac OS X (10.4)  

    All the settings are proper, like i said, it captures with the apple codec for HDV but that is only good for on the fly. iMovie captures it fine, it's just when the settings in FCP are set for HDV it won't capture picture through log and capture.
    Are you guys actually reading my post??? I have given all the information that i can, settings are proper, so the post so far are completely redundant.

  • Trouble importing HDV mini DV footage from my Sony HVR Z7U into FCP 6.0.6

    Cannot import HDV mini DV footage from my HVR Z7U camcorder into Final Cut Pro
    I can Import the footage as an NTSC 720x480 signal.
    One consistent answer is to make sure that in camcorders menu settings that the IN/OUT REC - iLINK SET is set to off.
    No Luck, no communication with FCP in that mode.
    That being said when cameras ilink is on I can import 740/480 NTSC video, not HDV.
    Here’s where I’m at now
    The video was shot in 1080i 30p onmini DV.  With my Sony HVR Z7U Ican only import the video into FCP as a NTSC 720x480 signal. It looks great butnot in HDV?
    I believe I have tried most every setting in my FCP audio video settings to import the HD footage into FCP. FCPseems to only recognize the camcorder in the NTSC mode.
    Example - In  FCP  Audio /Video Settings
    Sequence Preset - HDV 108030p
    Capture Preset    - HDV
    Device Control     - HDV FireWire Basic
    Video Playback   - Only gives none or NTSC choices(I chose Apple FireWire)
    With the setting above and Sony’s  ilink off- window alert reads…
    “Device is not connected or the capture preset is not set up correctly. You may still log offline clips. This might also happen if you play DV footage in an HDV device.” The camcorder viewer reads the digital footage as 1080i 30p. So it’s not shot in DV footage.
    With the iLink on - I get the same window alert.  Unless I capture in NTSC
    For me FCP will only log and capture the footage when the Capture and Device Control Presets are set to a NTSC format and the camcorder ilink is on. Hence an NTSC 720x480 signal is imported. Not HDV?
    Come on, I know this a common problem and I must be missing something very simple. Please Help! Many thanks.

    FCP 6.0.6
    Mac G5
    Someone mentioned using log and transfer. I use this with all my Compact Flash HD videos. I have found no info for importing HDV from mini DV in log and transfer with a (my) camcorder.

    Gary, this is the Final Cut Pro X forum.  You might try the other forum for FCP. Still, I have the Z5U Sony which is nearly identical to your camera except for the zoom as I recall.  I think we have the same menu system.  I see to recall there is a menu option that sets the output file format.  Also you can set it to record in SD as well as I recall.  I read my files in from tape to FCP X easily ... in high def.  Best wishes.

  • FCP 6.0.6 will not recognize my new Sony HVR-Z7U camcorder

    I cannot capture any mini DV fotage from this camcorder (Sony HVR-Z7U) into FCP.
    Im using I link 1394 6pin from the camera to the computer.
    Wrong wiring? or settings in camcorder?

    Thanks Nick and all,
    Most of my videos are shot in HD 30p. That being said, Nicks Easy Set up instructions got my camera to work with FCP. Go figure. I guess now I'll just need to pay attention to my sequence settings.
    I thought since I shot in HD, setting the camcorder in DV NTSC mode would not run the camcorder in HD for FCP. That was my original thought, so I keeep trying all the HD capture presets. It's working, hope it is capturing in HD.

  • FCP 6.0.5 and Sony HVR-M15U - DV Connection Issue

    My head is hurting at the moment. I cannot get my Sony DV deck to be seen in FCP 6.0.5. I can see the deck as HDV. For DV mode, you have to turn on the iLink conversion. I have set the deck to iLink Set - DV SP. BUT... Final Cut Pro does not see the deck at all.
    Here's the specs:
    Mac Pro (Late 2007) Quad Pro 3.0
    8 gig of matching paired RAM
    FCS 2.0 with all of the latest updates.
    MacOS 10.5.6
    AJA Kona 3 driver version 6.03
    AJA Io driver version 2.01 - disconnected unless needed for capture from older tape decks
    ATI Radeon XT1900 (512 RAM)
    ATTO Celerity FC-42ES fiber channel card
    Quicktime 7.6
    Adobe Creative Suite Premium CS3 (with all updates applied)
    I have checked Apple's tech site and forums, nothing other than removing the old Quicktime receipts and reinstalling Quicktime. I tried this... Still nothing. I tried to use another deck, a Sony HVR-M10U. Nothing!
    Before you say, its the firewire connection in the computer, HDV does work just fine. Its DV that doesn't work. I have used it just fine with Adobe Premier Pro CS3 (DV capture and Export to Tape). Apple's iMovie sees the deck just fine, too. I wish I had an HVR-1500 deck so that I could bypass this issue, but I don't have one.
    What I ended up doing was exporting my sequences from FCP using Quicktime Conversion and setting it to DV Stream. Then I can import my video into Premier Pro CS3 and Export to Tape. Works perfectly.
    If I go back into FCP and try this, I get an error message telling me the firewire connection is not found. My iLink lights on the front of the deck are also off. Its not showing any iLink connection on the deck. Now, when I open Premier Pro, the iLink light comes on for DVCAM.
    Makes you go, hummmmmm........
    HELP!

    >could not get PP CS5 to display the video
    As far as I know (from reading only, I don't do HDV) PPro does not show the video during capture... this is not a bug
    You should (again, reading only) be able to see the video in PPro while simply playing it on the camera and not actually capturing

  • Sony HVR-HD1000E capture setting in FCP 6.0.6

    One of my clients has a Sony HVR-HD1000E mini-dv camera & contacted me when they were having trouble capturing video.
    The camera captures at HDV 1080i50, so set FCP to this but says it cannot communicate with the camera. If I set FCP to DVCPRO HD-1080i50 then it communicates with the camera but when I try to capture, Preview is disabled. With the capture window open I then change the setting to DV PAL Anamorphic & apply the setting the preview window becomes active. I then change it back to DVCPRO HD-1080i50 & apply, the preview window is active & I can capture without any problems.
    I spoke to Sony & they agree with me that FCP should be set to HDV 1080i50 & cannot explain why there is a problem other than FCP is having a bit of a wobble & needs reloading/updating etc.
    I have connected the camera to three different machines with FCP 6 & all do the same, also tried different firewire cables but no difference.
    I can tell you that it worked fine for about 6 months but no one knows on what settings so I'm hoping that someone with the same camera reads this & can tell me what settings they use.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hello there,
    I am owner of HVR HD1000E and I am working with FCP 6.05. Here is the setup you should have in FCP and everything will work just perfect:
    OPEN - File - Audio/video settings:
    Summary: Seq.present - HDV 1080i50
                    Capture preset - HDV
                    Device control preset  - Sony HDV 1080i50 Firewire

                    Audio Playback - Default  
    Sequence preset: HDV 1080i50
    Capture preset: HDV
    Device control preset: Sony HDV 1080i50 Firewire
    Thats it!
    Open Sequence in FCP and check Settings:
    General: Frame size: 1440x1080 (16:9)
                 Pixel aspect ratio: HD 1440x1080
                 Field dominance: None
                 Compressor: HDV 1080i50
                 Audio: 48kHz, 16bit, stereo
    For export use: Quicktime movie, CURRENT Settings! If you want small file size and very quick export, than unchecked "make movie self contained". But if you wish your mov file transport to other computer..., than you must check "make movie self contained". In booth cases you're movie will be 1920x1080 HD crystal picture!
    I hope my help isn't too late!

  • Best workflow for HDV 1080/60i/24pA with FCP 5.1.4

    I've spent hours trying to find the answer to this specific problem on the discussion forums as well as the FCP user manuals and I can't find it, please help! I've got a Sony HVR-V1U and I recently recorded several hours of footage at 24pA. I would like to edit the footage in 24p, and preferably in a different codec besides HDV and definitely not in AIC. I don't have any experience with Cinema Tools and I can't seem to get any files directly from FCP to Cinema Tools no matter what I transcode the video to. Also, is there any way to transcode the video to ProRes because it is so much faster to render video in ProRes than in HDV.
    Thanks in advance!

    Removing pulldown is done during capture if you shot 24pa, and in Cinema tools if you shot 24p. However I don't think that camera shoots a version of 24p that works when you remove the pulldown pattern. I could be wrong, but as I recall, the 24fps video that the v1u shoots isn't exactly the same as that shot by say, a DV camera so might not work removing pulldown. Just looked at the specs at Sony on the camera... it does apparently shoot with a 2:3 pulldown, so after you capture, you might try Cinema tools for the removal. Never heard of anyone doing this with HDV though, so it might be pretty problematic.
    That said, you should be able to transcode to ProRes in Compressor, and it should look great. Don't use your computer display to judge the quality of the results though, use an external video monitor. Artifact may show up on the computer's display when it's really not in the video...

  • Using a Sony HVR-M25U for video playback

    I know this isn't strictly a Final Cut question. I'm just hoping that some smart Final Cut editor is using the same Sony deck as I use and can help me out. Also, sorry for the length. I've included every detail I thought might be germane.
    Since I started editing HDV I've always used Digital Cinema Desktop Preview for monitoring my edits. I suppose due to a lack of computing power it's never looked very good in motion, though it looks nice and clean when stilled. Today I bought an HDMI cable, hoping to allow me to monitor my work in FCP, sending the video via iLink (FireWire) through my Sony HVR-M25U to my HD monitor.
    Now, I use my HVR-M25U Videocassette recorder deck to log and capture footage in Final Cut Pro. That works fine. I can view video straight off HDV tapes on my High Definition monitor via the HDMI input. That works fine. I can even use the Print to Video function and see the HDV output both in the LCD screen on the front of the deck and on the monitor through the HDMI input. The trouble I'm having is in using the M25U to monitor my editing via iLink.
    In the old days, working with DV, I had a DSR 40 and I was able to use that deck to monitor my FCP output via iLink, taking a component out to my standard def monitor. Is there some reason I can't use this HDV deck the same way? I've tried refreshing A/V devices in Final Cut. I don't see any iLink or Firewire choices in my view menu. I do see a whole list of HDV (1440 x 1080) choices but they're all greyed out. These choices also exist in my Audio/Video Settings screen under "Playback Output" but, again, they are greyed out. Oddly, from having used the Cinema Desktop Preview, I have "Different Output for Edit to Tape/Print to Video" checked and under that pulldown the same eight HDV (1440 x 1080) choices do exist and they are not greyed out. Checked or unchecked, that doesn't change the Playback Output menu.
    I can't see any logical deck settings to adjust. Under "IN/OUT" settings I have "HDV/DV SEL" on Auto, my "Video Out" as 1080i/480i and "i.LINK SET" (the DV down-convert) is off.
    I've also tried shutting down FCP and relaunching and shutting the deck off and firing it back up. I've tried the deck first and then FCP and I've tried the opposite. I also tried restarting. Still nothing.
    If I can feed HDV from the deck into my computer via iLink, shouldn't I be able to feed HDV from my computer to the deck? Like I said, I can record HDV via Firewire to the deck. Shouldn't I be able to see that same HDV output on the deck's LCD screen and also through the deck's HDMI output when editing?
    In case it matters, I'm running FCP 6.06, OS X 10.6.2 on a 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad Core Xeon with 4GB RAM.
    Thanks in advance for anyone who's taken the time to actually read this long question and a special thanks to anyone who might be able to help.

    #25 HDV external Monitor Viewing
    Shane's Stock Answer #25 - HDV external Monitor Viewing
    To view HDV on an external monitor in high definition you are going to need to purchase a capture card, like the ones Decklink (www.decklink.com) or AJA (www.aja.com) offer. They will both play out HDV in real time. The catch is that you cannot view this on a regular TV or NTSC monitor. Since this is HD, an HD monitor will be needed. HOWEVER, both cards are capable of down converting the signal so that it can be displayed on an SD monitor. This won't be color accurate
    The real reason why you can't monitor HDV through a Firewire camera is because Firewire HDV cameras don't decode incoming HDV streams and route them to their outputs like DV cameras do.
    Good options for you are the Matrox MXO2...$500...coupled with an HDTV. Or a Matrox MXO (DVI connection) coupled with an Apple 23" display gets you good quality.
    And there are the Decklink Intensity and Intensity PRO cards as well, and the AJA I/O Express...
    You can, however, view HDV out via firewire as DV...lowering the resolution to that of DV, but still viewable. This is not full quality nor should it be used to judge the quality of your footage or used to color correct to. This is just a way to view the footage on a large monitor.
    Here are some examples of some of the possibilities:
    - DV or HDV sequence output to an SDI signal on a third-party interface
    - An uncompressed NTSC or PAL sequence output to a DV FireWire output
    - An HDV sequence output to a DV FireWire output
    Sequence and output formats must have compatible frame rates. For example,
    sequences with a frame rate of 60, 30, or 24 fps can be output to a 30 fps device,
    but not to a 25 or 50 fps device.
