The following tips may
help avoid some common archiving problems:
Do not attempt to archive material captured
with Headroom as the Output mode. Such material cannot be archived.
Check the scan mode of Flame and
make it consistent with your VTR and VCP settings. Use the F1 Scan
mode in the Engineering menu. You cannot create an archive on a
VTR when the Scan Mode option in the Engineering menu is set to
F2.
Ensure that you are using a non-drop-frame
timecode tape. You cannot create an archive on a drop-frame timecode
tape.
With an Ampex DCT D1 deck, the VTR cues
to the wrong timecode (the next ascending minute) when archiving.
To work around this problem, select the Manual Start option and
enter the desired timecode.
Ensure that you have version 3.1.2 (or
later) of the DST driver to use the DST tape drive with Flame.
