Canon XL-H1 Log and Capture
I have not worked with this camera very much or the HDV format and I'm trying to learn. (normally I shoot with the XDCAM)
I have 3 reels and when I captured the lo res files, I turned off the HDV output from the camera and had it down convert it to SD and captured it in FCP using an offline edit preset. worked great... I have my timecodes and edited my video.
Now I'd like to up res them to the HD versions, but when I try to capture the footage with the HDV output enabled on the camera, and FCP set to capture using HDV.... I get a dialog that only allows me to name the clip. No in or out points or batch capture.... it starts the camera right from where it's parked and starts capturing HDV footage....
is there a way to capture the HDV footage by timecode in and outs? I'm searching the web but can't seem to find a great explanation of the workflow...
