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.
