Final Cut capture

[custodianboy]

I'm stuck trying to figure out what capture settings I need in final cut pro....


We have a Mac Pro (2x2.8 Quad Core Intel Xeon, 6MB RAM)

Our camera is a Canon XHL1.

I'm wanting to capture via the SDI out from the camera onto the mac. We have a Blackmagic capture card (DeckControl, Media Express?). There's a bunch of blackmagic stuff listed under the apps folder, so I'm not even sure which one is actually the capture card.

Anyway, all I've had in the capture window is color bars. I'm trying to capture w/ DVCPRO HD, although I guess I don't have to be. We were trying to do exactly the same capture settings as what theatre church does...

Capture settings that would work all would be great. There are a million variations, so I'm pretty lost.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I haven't done a lot of work with capture cards in awhile. I've been shooting with an HVX200 so I've been using a tapeless workflow...

Anyway blackmagic should have installed some easy setup presets in FCP's Easy setup menu.
