I can not get my Media Composer to recognize my Z1U as a deck. I am trying to capture 1080i/59.94 footage. I have Meda Composer v. 2.8.1 on my PC. Its an upgrade from XPressPro HD w/ Mojo. Can someone help. Meda Composer v. 2.8.1 w/ Mojo, Intel DP965LT motherboard, Intel Pentium D 950 Processor, 2048MBytes Kingston DDR2 Memory (2 modules), Liteon DVD

I have raw footage that I shot on a Canon XH-A1 in 24F HDV with my mini-35 adapter. It's already been edited on a FCP system but I have the raw footage and would like to capture the raw footage for my own DP reel. I just upgraded my Avid DV Xpress Pro HD to Avid Media Composer so I'm not as familiar with my new Avid product. SInce I upgraded

I have DV Xpress Pro HD v.5.2.1 (not the latest). I need to captur footage (video and audio) from a DVD-R. It is not immediately clear how to do this or if it is even possible. Can someone please explain how to capture footage from a DVD-R? Thanks.

I figured it out. It's 4:12am but I figured it out.

Nothing theat I try is working. I tried a new tape name. No mater what I do, Avid reads my tape as NON-DROP frame and I know for an absolute fact that it is DROP frame. It read the first 16 minutes as drop frame. This bizarre switch occurs when Avid 5.2.1 automatically saves when I have my capture window open. I get booted out of capture mode for a

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

At this point in the process, what can I do to get my tape to appear as a drop frame tape (the way it actually is)? I've already logged 16 out of 18 minutes. Can I change the name of the tape and have it appear to dropped frame again (since it is)?

I use Avid DV Express Pro 5.2.1. I have a drop frame raw footage tape. I'm logging my tape to so I can batch capture when I'm done logging. When Avid automatically saves, I'm kicked out of capture mode for a few seconds. When It all comes back up, my tape is non-drop frame and I get an exception warning alerting me that I have a non-drop frame tape

I'm wondering if anyone can tell me the procedure for getting my raw footage from DVD-R into my Avid. Situation: I shot my footage on Beta SP originally (at my 9-5 job). I want to edit a different version of the final project on my home system so I put the entire 22 minutes onto a DVD-R because I don't have a Beta SP deck at home and I can't take one

How do I turn a quicktime into an mpeg2 file?
