Your certainly can log and capture HDV in FCP6, and I've done it on a three year old G5 iMac.
Direct capture to IAC will do what you say above. |

What equipment do you use if you think "Log and capture" works as well for HDV as say it used to do for DV? |

Did this once from an EDL generated by Avid. No problems at all (other than the editor didn't enter separate reel names for the half dozen tapes used.) Did you use 24f mode on the XH A1? Compatibility with that and FCP is cranky I think (maybe it's fixed now) so maybe that's your problem. Dylan |

Log and capture will wear out your camera tape heads a little bit faster. I think that when you capture the whole tape and create subclips, it will be easier on your camera tape heads and maybe a bit faster. But when you have multiple items on one tape, log and capture is the way to go. I have a Canon XL-H1 and have looked at the firestore but I am not sure how reliable it is. I have read many complaints about failing harddisks inside it and also about the timecode on the firestore being different from the timecode on tape. Those things can make things very complicated. Maybe the new model fixes all of this.
