BR-HD50 and Avid Pro with Mojo workflow?
Folks-
Does anyone have a JVC BR-HD50U with Avid Pro/MOJO as a workflow? Am I just insane? I am a(frustrated) JVC HD250U owner trying to find a cost efficent way to not only get my footage into Avid Pro, but also "cheat" the system into giving me a reference HD signal out off the HDMI output on the BR-HD50U deck (to be connected to an HD monitor). I plan on shooting everything at 720p/30 NTSC, and either capturing per Avid specs- and I also have the option of importing the files from a portable HD, also attached to the camera and acting as a redundant recording source. What's the best way to do this? I'm running Avid 5.x over XP/SP2. |

However, with just a good High Def LCD monitor with HDMI or even DVI, you can monitor full screen with 5.5 or later as long as you have a Nvidia card. Ingest is pretty straight forward with HDV 720/30 through firewire. Good Luck,,,

Well, hang on there guys. The JVC 720/30p workflow on Avid is sketchy at best. The BR-HD50 deck and its control from Avid is very unreliable and in general the format is not supported very well at all. If I were doing it all over again, I'd either pick a different format or go with FCP, which supports the format and equipment better. Avid can claim whatever they want but 720/30p does not work well. Of course, 24fps is not supported at all and eventhough there are some workarounds, it's not fun.
