Good Transport Codec FCP –> Avid over FTP
We have a small production shop in Key West, Florida running FCP. A lot of what we do is feed news footage over fiber lines to the affiliates in Miami. I’m looking for a good codec to convert footage too in order to feed via FTP. We have some clients who would prefer to recieve packages over the internet. We feed footage to The Weather Channel with out a problem (mpeg2), but have run into some issues recently with importing the mpeg2 files into Avid systems for other clients.
Any one have some ideas? I tried Meridian but couldn’t get it to work properly.

Might be a good idea to check with the Avid forum about this…. sounds like Avid must have changed a codec.

You could export to an Avid QuickTime codec, then zip the file before FTPing.

Which Avid codec would you recommend for smallest file size and maximum compatibility?

You should ask your Avid recipients what Avid codec they would like you to choose.
