  • Best way to render HD 60i to 24P

    Posted by Doug Worthington on June 12, 2011 at 7:01 pm

    I searched and didn’t seem to find exactly what I’m looking for, at least for my specific application and equipment.

    Most of my recorded media is from the XR500V, saved in the highest quality (FH). What i’m venturing into is to make 24P renders as smooth or as film-like as possible….I understand fast pans etc can produce jitter, I try to control this as much as possible.

    I understand there are numerous plug-ins for Vegas, would like to know if there are any “goto” or “must have” plug ins that most use for the final render. Basically to smooth the frames out, not so much the color cast since I believe that’s user preference…just a guess. I have alot of footage with toddlers so slow movement isn’t always possible.

    Does the audio have to be seperated in Architect, or is that AC-3 only? Can I render a final piece without seperating audio…just curious?

    What check boxes should I always check?

    Can I render from 1920×1080 or does it need to be 1440?

    I want to keep it all HD but occasional SD for some friends on non-HD sets.

    My current version is Pro 10 64-bit.

    All help and criticism appreciated.

    This is my first post here, was just browsing the “unanswered” threads and felt like replying here.

    All I have to offer is that if you are rendering for Architect for purposes of burning to DVD, the recommended method is to render video and audio separately. Video to an MPEG-2 NTSC Video Stream of some sort, and audio to AC3. This way Architect doesn’t have to re-render your project again and lose more quality.

    Good luck!
