  HDV Output Edge Crop

  Posted by Liam Stephens on August 29, 2007 at 6:30 pm

  Hi All
  So im editing a segment or 20 in HDV. What is the best way to go out to NTSC720x480. Im using an AJA lhe is there a way to edge crop on the way out to D-Beta or will dropping the sequence in a NTSC720x480 sequence and panning and scanning be my best bet?
  cheers

  If you go to the Output settings on your Kona control panel, there should be a drop down box that lists your downconvert options. There should be an edge crop setting. I think by default it’s on letterbox.

  If you want pan and scan you need to drop into an NTSC timeline. Kona will give you “crop” as an output choice, but it is center cut only, not pan and scan.
