We have a question about creating an EDL for our video house. We have a Mac with Premiere, and a Sony 3ccd. We want to be able to read the time-code, but apparently we need a device called a Vbox which uses the LANC controller. We're not even sure if this method will allow us to read the time codes. We tried using Premieres OCR for the time code, but it didn't work (the Sony time code is too gray, I guess). Anyway, how do we do this? It seems so simple. Do we need the Vbox? We heard about another special device which hooks up to the Mac and allow us to read and write time code, but we're not sure about the brand or if it works. -John (mail preferred)
