IEEE 1394 Field order trouble!

When I send video from the sequence on the 1394 field at the output displayed in reverse order, because of what the image shows the effect of strobe and "comb". Is there a way around this bug? Will Adobe company to solve this technical problem? Thanks!

did you ever cure this problem?
have a read of this post I've just put on the atomos site
OK so FCP 7 works fine with pro res 422 HQ normal and light. Premiere does not. Upper field settings imported straight into the sequence at first look fine. View it on a crt preview monitor through a video board (exactly the same way as FCP) and what an awful looking picture it is!
Reversing the field settings cures this effect but hey! (having to render the footage though is not slick in a fast paced working environment) when exporting the footage to mpeg2 for dvd creation in studio pro - guess what! ....the interlacing problem is back again!
So come on guys - will someone actually answer the question. Have I wasted several days and money trying to move to Premiere CS6 (almost on CC but holding fire on that one!) Somethings going to go - either the Samurai or Premiere.
It's just like premiere does not see the upper field settings in the native pro res footage. And I've tried all sorts of configurations to cure the problem. The only way I found was to export the XFL files to FCP7 and work with the project on there. And seeing as I'm trying to get away from FCP this isn't ideal.
So come on tech heads from either atomos or planet earth. Lots of other people have had this problem but no one seems to get a proper answer.

  • IEEE 1394 trouble

    Just assembled the items below, and everything runs like a charm. Almost.  
    Device manager says IEEE 1394 cannot be started. It's enabled in BIOS and most recent nVidia drivers installed. I have seen that others have had the same problem, but found no solution.
    Any ideas?

  • Field Order on Final Burn

    Hello,
    What I did. I made video in PP CS3. Exported to mpeg-2 using adobe media encoder. Made dvd from adobce encore cs3. I then deleted the original dv-avi (need to buy more storage but didn't have time); DVD Played fine no problems; I then saw I needed to fix an error. So I only had the mpeg-2 file. Went back in PPcs3 and fixed the error. Used Adobe media encoder again to export as mpeg-2 again all default didn't change field order. When I compile the DVD the second time around in Encore cs3 the dvd plays back like I chose to do upper field first this time. Fast motion is strobe like.
    Does re-encoding an mpeg-2 file cause problems??
    Any suggestions or comments would be great for this newbie.
    Thanks

    Burning to DVD would not cause this to occur.
    Recompressing to MPEG-2 is the most likely the source of the trouble. It sounds as simple as the field order not matching. You could start by trying to find the field order of the source and the MPEG-2 setting.

  • Connecting IEEE 1394 & I394b

    I have a mid-2010 27' inch IMac and I would like to connect it to my cira 2001 Yamaha CD External Recorder.  Both have firewire the Yamaha is IEEE 1394 and Mac is 1394b. Is that possible?  If so, what wires and/or adapotors do I need to get to make everything work. 

    1394 is probably 400 (6 pins) and 1394b is 800 (9 pins). Do you have your Yamaha manual? It will tell you which Firewire port and cable you need. If you don't, you can Google the burner model number to find out. Sounds like you have 400 on the CD burner and 800 on the iMac. The 800 will slow to 400 when connected. Since the burner is 400 that can't be helped. You can get an 800 cable and a 800 to 400 adapter.
    One way to solve it would be to go to a Best Buy that has an Apple Store inside, with your burner in hand, and show it to the guy/gal and tell him/her what you want to do. The cables won't be cheap there. You can look and then order online, or just buy there and be done with it.

  • Field order problem I think

    I just burned through 10 dvds and they all look terrible. There are all these wavy lines. Is this a field order problem? If so, how do I correct it. I have missed my deadline and I am in big trouble. Please help.

    DV formats ALWAYS use field 1 dominance -- LOWER FIELD FIRST!
    Since your content was created in a graphics program and not a DV camcorder, be sure to read through: http://www.greatdv.com/video/fields.htm
    BTW, It's ALWAYS the best idea to create a disk image out of iDVD (an option under FILE). Verify the image plays correctly with Apple's Disk Utility and then make the actual burns to writable media with Apple's Disk Utility or Roxio's Toast. Use quality DVD-R media (Verbatim or Maxell) and burn at 4x speed or lower.

  • Attempting to control Sony DFW-VL500 via IMAQ IEEE-1394 and LabView 7.0

    I'm attempting to get images from a sony DFW-VL500 camera. I defined it as a device in MAX 3.0: the grab and snap functions seem to work. However, I cannot save video (only still images work).
    This is a non-issue since what I would like to program in Labview 7.0 is to preview a continuous image and then snap individual frames. However, I keep incurring a -1074364408 error. Has anyone been able to get a functional VI that grabs images with this camera? Furthermore, is there a way for me to control the Zoom and Focus via LabVIEW? Any help will be appreciated.

    The error you are receiving is a "Function not supported error" - which function does this error occur at? Make sure that your camera supports this feature and that you are calling it correctly.
    I do know that this camera is supported by the NI-IMAQ for IEEE-1394 driver, version 1.5. If you don't have this latest version, you'll want to update that - although since it is not a free download, you'll have to call in to NI to get it.
    In order to program what you are discussing, take a look at the following linked example program.
    http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/niepd_web_display.display_epd4?p_guid=B45EACE3E1DB56A4E034080020E74861&p_node=DZ52490&p_source=External
    You'll have to replace the regular IMAQ functions with 1394 functions, but other than that it should be th
    e same.
    Hope this helps -

  • IEEE 1394 bus host controller issue.

    Each time I boot my system (Tecra A9 S9021V) the IEEE 1394 Bus host controller device driver displays that it is disabled with an error code 22 (this taken from device manager).
    From within device manager I manually disable the device, then re-enable the device.  The device then displays that is operating correctly.  The device driver is displayed as "Texas Instruments OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller".  There are 2 files associated with the driver - (1) 1394bus.sys (Microsoft Corporation; version 6.0.6001.18000 longhorn_rtm 080118-1840), and (2) ohci1394.sys (Microsoft Corporation; version 6.0.6000.16386 vista_rtm 061101-2205).
    I'm running Vista Business SP1 with all updates/patches.
    Is there something I can do to get this device to start up correctly?
    Thank you!

    What did you change about the time this started?

  • HP HDX X18T eSATA - IEEE 1394 Firewire SPECS

    I'm having trouble finding the specs for the eSATA and the IEEE 1394 Firewire.  I'm looking for an external hard drive that has one or both of these connections.  Some have a selection of Firewire 400 or 800 and the specs list it as  IEEE 1394 Firewire.  Granted that my laptop is from 2009, but it is a workhorse.  
    I have several Iomega esata desktop drives, but I'm looking to a portable one.

    It is definitely firewire 400 and the eSATA is going to be SATA I speed. What else did you need help with?

  • IEEE 1394 for IMAQ Deployment Issue

    I have IMAQ Vision 6.0 and the IMAQ Vision Deployment Engine for Vision 6.0 , which installs the Vision 6 Runtime Engine on my target , but i also use IEEE 1394 for IMAQ in my application and the IMAQ Visiion Deployment engine doesn't seem to install/support that. Do I have to manually install IEEE 1394 for IMAQ onto my target in order to have my Application not be broken ? Also , what are the licensing requirements for Deploying Applications which contain IEEE 1394 for IMAQ vi's. I am using the Labview 6.1 Professional Development system. Thanks.

    You do need to install IMAQ for IEEE 1394 separately. I believe you need to purchase a license for each computer you will be using it on. You should call NI or your local sales rep to get the details.

  • Ni IMaq IEEE-1394 v2.0 plug/unplug/enumeration

    The IMaq IEEE-1394 v2.0 Driver contains some new missed function's espec. the Camera plug/unplug and enumeration.
    I can't find any example, how to use this functions correctly. The Cam. plug/unplug functions are impl. by the IMAQ1394 Occurence Config. This Vi needs a valid Session ID, but is there none camera attached or the valid Cam. are detached, this Vi fails.
    In the future of my project, there are up to 15 Camera's attached, based on two PXI-8252 1394 Host adapters run's under Lv7.1-RT

    M.Funke
    Applications Engineer

    Dear Mr. Funke,
    as starting point you can use the programming model of the imaq example ll occurence vi's, that ship with LabVIEW. Implement the imaq 1394 vi's in a similar order. Place a loop, in which you wait on the occurence.
    Information how the imaq 1394 camera driver assigns interface numbers:
    camX (where X is an integer, and the first one is 0) is the interface name and is specific to a single camera.
    On Windows, the camera file is created when imaq1394CameraOpen is called (either through MAX or programmatically), and the imaq1394.ini file is updated. The imaq1394.ini file is created when the first camera is initialized. You can call imaq1394 Init with the interface name.
    The camera order (cam0 vs. cam1) is determined by uuid (unique universal identifier) of camera. The lowest uuids are first. So if you plug in a camera, it will be cam0. If you plug in another one, it could be cam0 or cam1 depending on its uuid. If you have two cameras plugged in and you unplug cam0, cam1 will become cam0.

  • Interface Not Found Error when Using Snap Example for Firewire (IEEE 1394)

    I just recently installed a SONY XCD-SX910 to interface with Labview 8.2.  When choosing the driver, only the Legacy driver would work for the Firewire(R) (or IEEE 1394) installation.  After installing the driver, I successfully acquired images from the MAX inteface.  However, when attempting to trace through the 1394 Legacy Snap Example from the IEEE 1394 installation document, I am receiving the error "Interface Not Found".  I have tried a few iterations attempting to name the camera such as "cam0" (the name assigned to the camera in MAX) and "cam0 : SONY XCD-SX910".  However, the error persists.
    What should I name my camera for it to find the interface?  Is there another underlying problem that is not obvious?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Is the Legacy Snap example you are referring to the one that is seen here: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/2977? Can you post screenshots from both Measurement & Automation Explorer and the VI you are trying to use? Also, can you verify in Measurement & Automation explorer that you are using the 1394 driver? You can do this by right clicking your camer and the selecting driver and choosing the appropriate one. Some more information on all that you are seeing would help in order to troubleshoot this.

  • How to connect a DV camera through the IEEE 1394 port on my A50?

    Hi
    I have been trying to connect a video camera to my notebook SA50-109 throught the IEEE 1394 port.. but the notebook didn't recognize the camera at all..
    although the camera shows 'DV-in' when i plug the cable witch is (4-pin to 4-pin) DV cable..
    is there any thing I need to do before to make it work?
    any ideas.. please?

    Hi there. Your PC should recognize automatically the DV camera. It's OK to have the firewire (1394) connection shown under "network connections". Next to mine it says "connected" although the harddisk connected to it is switched off. Maybe there is something wrong with the cable? Or, another suggestion, try to restart the laptop while the camera is connected ... Not many further suggestions I'm afraid ... Good luck!

  • I am using IMovie 11 with a new iMac.  Unable to import video from a Panasonic PV-GS400 mini-DV camcorder using a Firewire IEEE 1394 400 cable connected to a Firewire 400 to 800 adapter which is then connected to a Thunderbolt to Firewire 800 adapter.

    How can I get iMovie to recognize my Panasonic PV-GS400 as a device so I can import video to my iMac?  I have a FireWire IEEE 1394 400 cable connected to the camcorder.  Since my new iMac has only Thunderbolt ports, I purchased a Firewire 400 to 800 adapter to connect to the cable.  I also purchased a FireWire 800 to Thunderbolt adapter to connect to the computer.  My camcarder is still not recognized.

    I would suggest that you try a 9 pin to 4 pin Firewire Cable along with the Firewire to Thunderbolt adapter.
    Those Firewire 400 to 800 adapters do not seem to work well with iMovie.
    The 9 pin to 4 pin cables are available at reasonable prices here, for example.

  • Export QuickTime Movie shifts field order

    In august I finished grading a project and made a QT Prores 422 master file for the client to have delivered on a hard drive.
    The client has kept quiet until now about an issue - the field order seems to be wrong. I couldn't believe my ears when he told me that. The timeline is lower (even) while the QT file he had received is Upper (odd).
    I selected 5 seconds of the timeline and exported using CMD+E, and it says "Setting: current settings". So I thought it would be lower field as the timeline - but no - it comes out as upper, every single time.
    How does this happen? Do I really have to make a conversion through compressorr?!

    The following settings are the same for the prepped timeline and the one that came back from Color
    *Sequence settings*
    720x576 PAL Anamorphic 16:9
    Field Dominance: Lower (even)
    Compressor: Apple ProRes 422
    *Item Properties*
    Frame Size: 720x576
    Anamorphic: Yes
    Compressor: Apple ProRes 422
    Field Dominance: Lower (even)
    However, I think I nailed it. Gonna do some further testing to make sure though... In the Export to QuickTime Movie window, I found that I can select some other setting, using ProRes 422 PAL Anamorphic for instance. And as far as I know - PAL is always lower field, and it seemed to work for the first test I did.
