Hi
I recorded to Mini DV yesterday in DV 30p in LP mode, so I have a nice looking recording of 90 minutes but when I try to capture in "log and capture" in Final Cut Pro, I don't have a DV 30p capture preset setting.
When I try to use DV NTSC or DV50 NTSC (capture presets) it only gets so far before stalling on a Timecode error, so my question is - can I get a capture preset to add into my FCP program or is there another way of capture this footage into my project?
Cheers!
 
I believe the HVX records DV 30p as 60i DV footage, so the regular DV NTSC preset should work (unless you shot in DVC50, which is a different format). You must have some other timecode issue, such as a gap in the timecode on your tape, causing you to get an error message. Did you make sure that you had continuous timecode when you were shooting?
 
Hi
Thanks for reading, I've actually fixed the problem myself (I'm fairly sure I have anyway)
My Final Cut sequence was set to 30p and I changed it back to 29.97 and now it seems to capture the footage in fine
