HD timeline to tape at DVinfo.net

Rafael Lopes · February 23rd, 2006, 07:35 AM

Hi,

I'm using a trial of Cineforms' Aspect HD V4 and after I finished making some tests I wanted to play the final result and record it via firewire using my HD camera as a desk (I know this is not supposed to be done!) but nothing is displayed on the camera...all I see is the msg "firewire in" (or something like that). I always keep a copy of my projects on tape AND dvd and I'd like to keep doing it. Any advices?

thanks

Hi Rafael,

You have to render an M2T file back to disk and then play *that* file back to tape . . . you can't edit a native Cineform AVI back to an HDV deck . . . and you can't play an Cineform file out a firewire port as a MPEG-2 native transport stream in real-time so your camera will never see video output like you would with DV on the camera itself while you're editing.
