How do I capture HDV 24f (Canon XH A1) without down converting to SD. My iMovie HD can capture my HD footage, so I figured FCP would have no problem doing it.
I can dwn-convert it, but then why would I even shoot in HD if it's going to be captured in SD.
I know I'm doing something wrong....I've edited HD footage on my FCP, but it was captured on someone else's Mac & external hard drive.
When I try to capture, I either get an error message stating unable to locate timecode or WAITING FOR DATA FROM DEVICE. That's with an easy set-up for HD 1080 60i.
I've searched the CAFE LA forum and the FAQ forums....nothing.
Please Help !
