[FCP-L] Re: HDV Question

 

Wow that has not been my experience at all. Could this point to a particular camera and or source deck. I've cut several shows for discover ID and many had lots of HDV and delivered on HDCamSR. I haven't suffered anything like that. I'm working on Avid not that that should make a difference on drop out/hits. Are your HDV sources being captured of HDSDI? If your working with native HDV that is different from my workflow which involves HDSDI to Avid DNX 145.
