  • Hello Everyone and 1st Question

    Posted by Jd Dauer on April 24, 2012 at 3:56 pm

    Hello – I’ve been an exclusive user of M100 since 1998 and am currently running Media 100 Suite 1.6.1 and Borris Red 4.3

    I have the software version of HD and am running an Intel-based Mac v 10.6.8

    I just purchased Toast Titanium 11 yesterday to author my first HD program and the result was less than acceptable.

    I exported my roughly 8 min. program as a self-contained file (animation compression), which looked beautiful in QT. But after burning it to disc – it’s really bad. A lot of video combing and text created in Borris is REALLY bad.

    Exported .mov file is DVCPRO HD (720p60), Animation, Linear PCM, Timecode

    Any recommendations? Intermediate codec maybe?

    Thanks!

    Either your footage is DVCPro or Animation codec; maybe it is both if you exported as self-contained and you mixed different formats and resolutions in your timeline…

    Best thing probably would be to export your Timeline to QuickTime, with a full-raster codec like ProRes or Animation. What resolution is your timeline? 720p? 1080i?

    Thanks for the feedback Floh.

    Timeline is 720p 29.97fps

    I did have a mixture of footage as well. P2, XDCam, and even some istock HD footage.

    I’ll try your suggestions and see what happens.

    Best Regards,
