First, INSERT A BLANK TAPE
into the VTR.
(Make sure the "Record Inhibit" switch on the back of
the tape cassette is not set to prevent recording)
Now, click
anywhere in the Timeline window, then select "Print to
Video"
from the "File"
menu. |
|
|
This will
open the "Print to Video" window.
Select checkboxes to include Color Bars, Black Leader,
a Slate, or a Countdown at the beginning (or "Leader")of
the tape.
It's usually a good idea to check the "Automatically Start
Recording" checkbox as well.
Once you have
customized the tape "Leader", click the "OK" button at
the bottom of the window. |
|
|
If
you have selected any custom Leader options, or have
video in your project that needs to be "rendered" (effects,
transitions, etc.) then a "Writing Video..." pop-up window
will appear.
|
|
|
Now the video
is ready to be recorded to your tape. The screen will
go black and this window will pop up. Click "OK" to record
to your tape.
|
|
|
After
the project has been recorded, the regular Final Cut
Pro layout screen will reappear on your computer monitor.
Make sure you
play your newly recorded tape to check for any audio
or video problems before closing Final Cut Pro.
|
SUCCESS!
