SRW 5500_1080i 59.94???
by Joey Burnham on Apr 29, 2008 at 11:49:10 pm

Sorry, in a rush and have been up this road before.

When I try to set up my deck to 1080i, it will not let me select the 59.94 tc. Just 29.97, 30 and another one I can't remember. Is this because I need that extra board or am I missing something?

Thanks,
Joey

Just use the 29.97 setting, Sony is sticking with the legacy naming so 29.97 i in the Sony world is the same as 59.94i for everyone else.

Sounds simple enough. (too simple actually) :-)
Thanks!

Well, that worked but I was having reference issues. I pulled the HD reference for now and that seemed to do the trick.

We'll see how the kona likes it.

Well, I figured everything out. Just wanted to post my procedure just in case anyone else ever needs it.


1. The Deck

Shift+Diagnostic
Shift+F8
F9
F9

That gets you so you can change the format of the machine. You want 1080, interlaced, 29.97 (yes, you are working in 59.94i, but that is the button you push)

Exec
Exec

Then you pull the HD reference from the back of the machine.

2. FCP and Kona

In FCP change the easy setup to 1080i 29.97 Uncompressed 8-Bit. (10-bit didn't work for some reason)
In KONA CONTROL PANEL, change reference to VIDEO IN.

Great I was just trying to work out how to do that!

Does this deck have a Legalizer built in? There seems to be something in the menu... what does it do?

Do you know how to black tapes directly on the deck with TC start 09:58:00:00 (i normally use FCP but it ties up my mac)

Thanks

Not ignoring you but I have no idea. I'm just used to a D5 deck and am still figuring out the hdcamsr. You might want to decrypt the manual.

Indeed! I have been staring at the manual and the front of the machine for 2 days now. I am a bit scared I set something wrong and it takes me hours to get back to where I was!
