I'm new to Final Cut Express, so maybe there's a very simple solution, I just haven't been able to find any...
I have a bunch of Hi8 tapes (PAL) from my parents that I was thinking about editing in FCE 3.5. To get them to the computer I hooked up the Hi8 camcorder to my DV camcorder - a Sony DCR-PC109E PAL.
So I have a RCA-cable -> A/V-cable and a S-Video from the Hi8 to the DV, and then a FireWire from the DV to the computer (24" iMac).
In FCE I have changed the setup to capture "Non controllable", when I capture I get the video without any problems but the audio just isn't there. I can see the audio levels changing but no sound coming out. I assumed this is because the Hi8 has 12-bit samples with a sampling rate of 32 kHz, and the DV camera has 16-bit and 48 kHz.
Is there anyway to change the audio rates so it capture it in 12-bit/32 kHz, or anyway to convert it to 16-bit/48 kHz? Thanks for any help...
