5D and JVC HD100 in same timeline?

Hey All,
I`m doing a series of projects using footage from 5Dmk2 and from JVC HD100 (which is HDV 24p) So far, with all all the presets I`ve tried, I still end up with having to render footage from one or the other (loooooong). AND each time I move it or cut it it wants to re-render.
These are 2 hour long pieces so....no!
Anyone had to do this/figured out settings with a fast/no render work flow?
I`ve done JVC footage 24p and 30p combined w/ no renders and no problem. Also done JVC 24p with DVCAM 30 fps and 4x3 aspect also no renders needed!
Which leads me to think its possible.
I`m using the latest FCP on a new Macbook pro.
Thanks!
Robert
 
I think the only way to avoid this would be to transcode the footage from both sources to the same codec, maybe ProRes.

Thanks Ram and Noah.
I will try that and report back!
Be happy to hear from anyone else on this, too.

OK...what Noah said. Convert both to a uniform codec.

Or...get Avid Media Composer 4.0 that mixes frame rates and codecs in timelines without issue. BUT, since you have FCP, let's stick to FCP advice.
