Old Friends and D-VHS vtrs
 

Thanks Heath,
I looked at Apple's Virtual DVHS, DVHScap. Not quite what I am looking for.

I appreciate any help I can get to solve this.

Cheers,

well, I went and got me a new Mac for home.
2.3Ghz, 2.5gig or ram, 300 gig firewire 800 drive

soon to have a Dell 24" LCD.

Ding DV right now, but HDV is on the horizon

Sending HDV to stockfootage company
 

I'm using an HC1 for u/w stuff, and a Mac Dual 867 G4 for editing(iMovie HD). I sent a hard drive to my stock-footage people, and it apparently was damaged in transit, so what are my options? If this is something you're familiar with, please be very specific with your answer/instructions. My geekiness is sorely lacking. Thanks a bunch.

Work Flow for FCS 2.0 and JVC GY HD110U?
 

I have been having issues using log and capture to aquire my footage from my camera. I am a nebie to the whole HDV scene and just purchased this camera 6 days ago...Does someone know a work flow that will let me get my footage? I have been shooting in 24P and 30P in HDV. Any advice appreciated!

Well for one, and correct me if I'm wrong guys, Final Cut Studio 2 will let you do 24 and 30fps but Studio 1 will try to turn everything into the first thing you put in the timeline. Also, if you have Studio 1 use the JES Deinterlacer for dropdown 24p footage.

I get an error message that says it can't control the device...which is wierd because the camera runs fine when capturing in DV mode. The only thing I can think of is that I got this used at B & H photo and something was possible damaged from the previous owners...

Will it not even let you batch capture?

no batch capture either...

Hi Stephen.

Here is an old thread which gives various approaches to FCP workflows with the JVC Pro HD cameras prior to native support by FCP:

Also, it's always a good idea to re-check over your basics if you are having troubles with native capture, i.e. is your DV/HDV switch on the camera set to HDV? Did you do the Easy Setup in FCP for that particular frame rate in HDV? Etc., etc.

I rebooted the camera and reset my easy setup and it works now...go figure! Thanks all for the help!
