Fcp5 and jvc brhd50 deck

any ideas how to make a workflow with this???

it depends on what format you are trying to work with.
Remember, Final Cut 5 support HDV 720p30 - but does not natively support 24p or 60.
You might have to use hdvxdv to tranform it into useable format.
I've done it with a 24p interview and it worked great - but again - only on the JVC HD100, not the deck.

  • FCP5 and JVC GY-HD100 Problem.

    Hello. it´s my first post were.
    i´m in portugal, and i use PAL system, so, how can i work with JVC GY-HD100, if my FCP5 just work with 720,30p?
    Can someone tell me?
    sorry for my bad english.
    thank you.

    Welcome Nuno,
    In the Menu bar, click on Final Cut Pro and select Easy Setup. You should see a bunch of sequence setting selections. Choose the one that matches your shooting format/capture settings.
    You can modify these if necessary, but may want to start with a basic one first.

  • Capture Now with Non-Controllable Device and Timecode from deck

    Hi,
    Trying to replace a windows laptop using premiere during our events.
    The mentioned system will allow me to get audio/video/timecode all through firewire from the deck AND allow me to "capture now" as a non-controllable device.
    I have not been able to find out how to do this with FCP6. I am able to get the timecode I need, but only with the "controllable" device settings I have thus far tried, at which point a "capture now" gives me an error message stating that the tape has ran out (or something of the sort)
    With "Non-Controllable Device" selected, I can "capture now" but the slot where the deck's timecode had been located is completely gone and no timecode was recorded on any of the test clips I tried.
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Hi -
    I'm confused.
    The DSR 45A only has one firewire port, if you are plugging your computer into that to source the video, where is the video and timecode source feeding the DSR-45A coming from?
    Within the DSR 45A there are internal menu selections that specify the timecode behavior of the DSR-45A, are these menu settings correct?
    If you load a pre-recorded tape into the DSR-45A can you control the deck, and successfully capture from it as a controlled device from your FCP computer?
    You said:
    we have main deck, a backup deck and a dvr deck recording the primary feed. the capture now stuff is extra bonus!
    What are the formats of these decks? Is the timecode feeding the DSR-45A coming from one of them?
    Thanks

  • I can't not transfer files in 'log and transfer' of Final Cut Pro. I recorded it in SD card using Nikon D7000 and JVC GY-HM100U.

    I can't not transfer files in 'log and transfer' of Final Cut Pro. I recorded it in SD card using Nikon D7000 and JVC GY-HM100U.
    I think I need plug-in.  Please let me know.  Thank you.

    Well, the Nikon D7000 footage cannot be logged and transferred.  There is no plugin for that like there is for the Canon cameras. Nikon never developed one.  So the footage from that camera will need to be converted with Compressor or MPEG STREAMCLIP.
    The JVC should work...what version of FCP are you on? 

  • 24p, FCP5, and my JVC SR-VS30U deck

    I have been shooting in advanced 24p with my AG-DVX100A. Recently, I did a full studio upgrade, getting FCP Studio with FCP5, the new quad-core mac, and a JVC SR-VS30U mini-DV deck. More often than not, when I go to Log and Capture, FCP does not show that the deck is connected at all. When it does, it refuses to capture in advanced 24p, stating that there was a "cadence" error in the recording. However, when I capture directly from my camera, I do not have any issues. I got the deck to reduce the hours on my camera, and would prefer to work this way. Has anyone else experienced this issue or have any suggestions? Thank you in advance for your time and your help

    glynn,
    i have an older jvc br-dv600ua and it works great. i don't think it's on apples' list of supported devices either. you should probably experiment with the firewire control protocols to see which works best. also, my vtr does not read the pulldown flags imbedded in the data stream so i cannot capture using the 24p advanced preset. a call to jvc tech support several years ago afirmed this and there's no mod on the board level that i could do to allow the machine to read the pulldown flags.
    i would either chuck your unit out the window and drive over it with a steamroller, sell it on ebay, return it and then bypass the dsr 11 (i know this machine has many, many supporters on this site but i don't like it) and get a real vtr. good machines are expensive but so is working in the glamourous world of video and tv production.

  • FCP5 and Kona 3 Card

    I am working on a FCP5 system with a Kona 3 card installed. The company has used this card for some time with great success for SD projects. They are making the tranfer to HD projects. They are shooting HDCAM. I have been able to get the video signal from the deck to FCP - but have not been able to get audio to FCP.
    I hooked up the deck SDI. This is how the video signal is coming in. But no audio. They have the speaker routed through a mixer connected to the card. One I plugged in the the Kona AES cables I was able to get audio to the speakers but no audio signal to FCP!
    Any ideas?!! Has anyone had this problem or heard of any type of solutions? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks in advance

    Kona 3   Mac OS X (10.4.1)  

    Kona recommends using a Fibre Channel or SCSI external RAID for uncompressed HD, but the price for both of those is high. The eSata works and is much more cost effective. The best reason to go Fibre would be if you were using multiple editing stations at one location and wanted each to share the same storage thru a Fibre network.
    As far as drive performance, in the eSata world, 8 striped 250 or 500s at 7200 RPM is the lowest recommended. 6 striped may work for 8 bit, but I have never tried.
    I found this list:
    Storage and data rates for uncompressed video are listed below.
    525 NTSC uncompressed;
    8 bit @ 720 x 486 @ 29.97fps = 20 MB per/sec, or 70 GB per/hr.
    10 bit @ 720 x 486 @ 29.97fps = 27 MB per/sec, or 94 GB per/hr.
    625 PAL uncompressed;
    8 bit @ 720 x 576 @ 25fps = 20 MB per/sec, or 70 GB per/hr.
    10 bit @ 720 x 576 @ 25fps = 26 MB per/sec, or 93 GB per/hr.
    720p HDTV uncompressed;
    8 bit @ 1280 x 720 @ 59.94field = 105 MB per/sec, or 370 GB per/hr.
    10 bit @ 1280 x 720 @ 59.94field = 140 MB per/sec, or 494 GB per/hr.
    1080i and 1080p HDTV uncompressed;
    8 bit @ 1920 x 1080 @ 24fps = 95 MB per/sec, or 334 GB per/hr.
    10 bit @ 1920 x 1080 @ 24fps = 127 MB per/sec, or 445 GB per/hr.
    8 bit @ 1920 x 1080 @ 25fps = 99 MB per/sec, or 348 GB per/hr.
    10 bit @ 1920 x 1080 @ 25fps = 132 MB per/sec, or 463 GB per/hr.
    8 bit @ 1920 x 1080 @ 29.97fps = 119 MB per/sec, or 417 GB per/hr.
    10 bit @ 1920 x 1080 @ 29.97fps = 158 MB per/sec, or 556 GB per/hr.
    1080i and 1080p HDTV RGB (4:4:4) uncompressed;
    10 bit @ 1280 x 720p @ 60fps = 211 per/sec, or 742 GB per/hr.
    10 bit @ 1920 x 1080 @ 24PsF = 190 per/sec, or 667 GB per/hr.
    10 bit @ 1920 x 1080 @ 50i = 198 per/sec, or 695 GB per/hr.

  • FCP 4.5HD and JVC Pro HD

    I'm trying to import footage on a JVC ProHD (mini dv) tape from a JVC BR-HD50 deck so I can cut it on FCP 4.5HD. My goal is to cut a sample to add to my web site.
    FCP 4.5HD has DVCPRO HD 720p24 in easy set up but no ProHD. I guess because this format came out after this version of FCP.
    Does that mean I must upgrade to PCP6?
    I read it is also possible to down convert from High Definition to DV standard which can be captured into FCP through i.Link (Firewire) and edited using the DV Easy Setup. I assume I'd lose the HD quality but will it be noticeable on the web?
    Also can you explain how to do this? I think I would then be able to cut on FCP 4.5HD.
    Thanks in advance.

    Does that mean I must upgrade to PCP6?
    Yes. FCP 4.5 does not support HDV...HDV came out after FCP 4.5 was released. And the applications that were used at the time to capture HDV for that format are no longer supported apparently. LumireHD and HDVxDV.
    I read it is also possible to down convert from High Definition to DV standard which can be captured into FCP through i.Link (Firewire) and edited using the DV Easy Setup. I assume I'd lose the HD quality but will it be noticeable on the web?
    You can tell the camera to output a DV signal. And yes, there will be a quality difference...but not something that would be too noticable by the time you compress it for the web.
    Also can you explain how to do this?
    You have to look in the camera manual for that information.

  • Premiere and JVC BR-HD50U

    I am looking at purchasing a DV Deck (JVC BR-HD50U) to upload my captured videos to Premiere CS-3, I will be upgrading to CS5, but wanted to know of any compatibilities issues before spending the money.  I will also be upgrading my system to a 64bit Windows7.  Any feedback would be great.
    Frankie

    Given the industry push away from tape and towards solid-state, I'd probably stick with using the camera for capturing, because the next camera probably isn't going to need it.

  • FCP5 and 24p

    Hello,
    I just got on board this project. I'm basically trying to make the process of editing it smoother than what it has been up tuntil now.
    They shot in 24p. I don't know if it was advanced or standard. They are about to start editing with Final Cut Pro 5.
    The output will be a 24p DV and maybe even film (as somebody is offering it for free -- of course no tests were run beforehand, they just forged ahead)
    Here are my questions:
    (A) - How do I find out what 24p they shot in? I read somewhere on this forum that one would need to take a look at the frame rate. But what's the difference between the frame rate of 24p advanced and 24p standard?
    (B) - Which setting should the editor use to capture the 24p Standard footage, considering that we are going for a 24p DVD output?
    (C) - Would the editor be right to use the "DV-NTSC 24p (23.98) Advanced Pulldown Removal" setting to capture the 24p Advanced footage?
    (D) - What do people mean by "24p DVD" output? Is it simply to burn a 24 final cut on a DVD? Or does it require more work than that? (We have the DVD authoring software that comes with the Final Cut Studio package)
    Thank you much for the help.
    Alex

    What a goldmine this thread was to me this week! I had almost an identical situation arise. 24p 16:9 that the client wanted burned to DVD.
    The media was on MiniDV 1hr26min. of footage. He also wanted to keep it at 23.98 for the DVD vs. 29.97
    After careful reading of this thread and a couple of others to get some real-world working knowledge of 24p and the workflow, off to burn I went!
    A couple of important things came to mind. Fisrt it was really a lifesaver to visit http://www.jkor.com/peter/24editing.html before starting.
    By reading that site I found out that my MiniDV deck JVC BR-600UA would not allow you to use the Easy Setup for Advanced Pulldown. That was a touchy subject for me, because I had already commited to the job. A quick call to the client to ask about camera settings during the shoot eased my mind. He had not used Advanced Pulldown.
    Now it was just a matter of capturing and running Cinema Tools to remove the pulldown. Well almost...
    Since the project was ws on 2 tapes and had minimal editing, I simply made 2 captures. The issue was that Cap1, was 60min long and the file was to large for Cinema Tools to handle.
    The shorter Cap2 was no problem. After breaking the first Cap into two smaller clips, it went like butter. Lesson learned:)
    Next came Compressor for the MPEG files and finally DVDSP, in which I got another surprise. This project was going to require a Dual Layer disc.
    Somehow I missed the part in the manual where it talks about establishing a break-point marker in your timeline. Lesson learned
    Bottom line... Project is complete 2 days ahead of schedule and works perfectly.
    Thank you to all who contribute here. The 1 hour of research saved me at least 3 days of headaches, and certainly would have created quite a different post here in this forum from me on this subject.

  • IPod and JVC Car Stereo random resetting problem

    Hey all,
    I recently bought my first iPod (yay!), a 30gig 5th generation. I also had a JVC KD-PDR30 cd player installed in my car so that I could hook up the iPod to it and eliminate all the random cds cluttering up my vehicle. It works great -- most of the time... the last few days I've my iPod has been randomly resetting itself while connected to the car stereo -- it's connected through the dock port (not the headphone jack) and works 90% of the time. Even still, this is frustrating. I almost want to just connect it from the headphone jack to the aux in on the car stereo. Anyway, it only seems to do this while it is connected to the car stereo. I've never had a problem with the iPod resetting while using it outside of the car. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks Apple community!!!
    Theo

    I had the JVC radio with iPod connector which worked just fine for my old iPod. When I upgraded to the iTouch I had to put in a new JVC stereo. The old version does not work with the iTouch (the same issues prev. stated). The new stereo has an USB hookup on the front. It plays the iTouch, but occas. the song or book will skip. At first I thought it was when I turned corners, but realized it was just random. A bit annoying. I looked at other stereos, but I could not get the iTouch and Sirus in the same unit, except for the JVC. If you can live without your iTouch I would wait until JVC or Apple address this issue. I could not live without either (I hate commercials!), so I made the jump to the first generation. I know better.

  • Can you have FCP5 and FCP 6 installed

    Hello.  I am having problem with FCP 5.04 ( external Display ) which is another query in this forum, but someone suggested that FCP 6 will solve it.  If I can obtain a copy of FCP 6 and install it,  will over write any of the installed FCP 5 in case I want to remove FCP 6 later and leave FCP5 as it is.  Thanks in advance   John

    The best solution would be to partition the system drive and intall a clean version of your os and FCP6 on the new partition.
    Good luck.

  • Dv with FW 800 cable and DSR-20 deck not working

    I bought Mac Pro that has no FW 400 (that is stupid). I bought dv (4 pin) with FW 800 cable. I connect it to mac pro and my DSR-20 deck. My FCP does not reconize it. I set it DV NTSC. What else should I do?

    Take all FW cables off the mac (properly unplug hardware first).
    Now try the Deck via FW800 cable on each available FW800 port on the mac...see if System Profiler recognizes the deck.
    If so, try to capture to internal drive to confirm it works.
    If this all works, then you're just overloading your single FW bus in the mac. You may need to get a FW card or eSata card and install it.

  • 24" aluminium imac and JVC HDD camcorder ??

    Hey guys
    Some help please. I have just switched to mac from PC and am having trouble opening certain files in the mac.
    I have a JVC Everio MG-330 HDD camcorder and the file format is .MOD
    I had the same problem opening these files in windows on my old PC and after a bit of research found out all I had to do was change the file extension to .mpg
    Now I have tried opening both fiel types in the mac , .MOD and .MPG and I am getting a message saying " cannot open, this is not a movie file. "
    I havent imported any of these files into imovie , this is just simply trying to open them from the videos home folder. They just wont open at all.
    Can someone offer a solution or tell me what I need to do.
    Thanks.

    Hey!
    Have a read of this....
    Review
    In particular this paragraph......
    "UPDATE: Well, after my review of the Everio on the 14th of March I have received a couple of e-mail from interested parties informing me that the comments I made about the .MOD file format not being useable on a Mac, was not totally correct.
    The .MOD file is really a ‘MPEG2' and if you have the latest plug-in's on your Mac version of Quicktime you should be able to play these. You can also go to the link below and download the ‘MPEG Streamclip' software, from an Apple recommended website, this OSX application converts the MPEG1 & 2 files to a Quicktime format or DV stream.
    http://www.alfanet.it/squared5/mpegstreamclip.html
    The original MPEG2 files can apparently be edited in either Apple's Final cut software and Adobe AFX and Premiere but once the files are converted they can be worked on in ‘iMovie', although there is a danger of a loss of sound in the conversion process.
    Then have a look here....
    QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback - Mac OS X
    Might be of some help!
    Cheers,

  • FCE 4 and JVC everio hd7 "easy set up"

    Ok I currently have a JVC everio hd7 which is a hard drive based cam. I also bought FCE 4 but I am exhausted of importing clips to imovie6 and then FC. I would like to know if anyone has had any luck with these two?

    Not sure why you are going through iMovie first. Sounds like you are in the same boat I am with my hard drive based Sony cam. If your JVC saves clips as MPG, you have to use MPEG Streamclip to convert them. There is a batch save option which allows you to save all your clips in the same format, then you can walk away and let it do the work. Go to http://www.squared5.com to download the free software. Use these settings when you export:
    Export to Quicktime
    Compression: Apple DV/DVCPRO - NTSC
    Quality: 100%
    Frame Size: 854 x 480 (16:9) [If your camera is 16:9, which most new cameras are.]
    Be sure to deselect "Interlaced Scaling" and "Reinterlace Chroma" so you don't get that jittery effect.
    The mov files will end up being twice the size of the mpg, but according to Ian Brown, that's normal.

  • 5.1 Universal and JVC-HD100

    Does the 5.1 crossgrade from final cut studio 5.0.4 fix the problems with capture using the JVC HD-100? I hear at NAB that they were demonstrating the 24p capture with the HD-100 and that it was a 5.1 version. Is this the same version or an update to follow?
    Thanks
    Yooch

    You've always been able to capture 720p30 from this camera. 24P support is forthcoming. Apple at NAB was demoing FCP working with JVC at 24p, and the Canon at 24f...but those were versions that haven't been released yet.
    And Apple's comment to when they will be?
    "Soon."
