MiniDV to Easefab... video yes, audio no
Posted: Tue Sep 12, 2017 8:04 pm
New iMac, new program (Resolve) for me, new forum user but I swear I searched for the answer to this and did not see it.
I have things recorded to MiniDV. I tried to capture them.
Resolve won't capture, but my otherwise-paperweight copy of Final Cut Pro X did. OK, can live with that.
But the .mov file, once imported, didn't show any sign of audio in Resolve. (In other words, not just silent, but no visible waveform either.)
Did some Googling and found Easefab. It claimed it would make my .mov work in Resolve.
I converted the file in Easefab to the correct video codec. Imported it into Resolve. And... still no audio.
My theory is that I'm not getting it to the right audio codec for Resolve to recognize, not that Easefab has other choices. But I'm happy to accept other theories.
So the question is:
Does anyone know what I'm missing about helping Resolve take a .mov file and import both its audio and video, as FCP does?
Many thanks.
