Uses
LOGGING. The ALL makes logs of Rec.Run. Timecode from the LANC
out of the camera gainst internal TOD. Ancilliary data such as cassette
number, camera ID, (entered manually to the ALL), and Event Number,
(automatically incremented) and RTC date and time are also recorded in
the log. Log format is open so that future extensions and IXML
conformity are possible. The TOD Timecode with the ancilliary data in
the Userbits can be simultaneously recorded on a camera audio track.
thus giving a second method of syncing audio and picture.
The logs are stored on a built in 512MB flash card and can be
downloaded through the USB port to any computer. They can then be
converted to an EDL using the CB EDL master program which can then
be used to sync the sound and video to a TOD timeline.
A complete solution for FCP is being developed by Andreas Kiel of
Spherico com.
