  • PAL to NTSC from various DV footage

    Hi,

    I have converted several different types of files using MPEG Streamer to DV.

    The sequence settings are slightly different for each set of footage (although all DV) so I have created separate sequences for each. My technical knowledge is not good enough to combine them all on the same timeline, but my client is happy for a DVD to be created with several buttons, showing each clip separately (miracles do happen 🙂

    All the footage is PAL. The DVD needs to be in NTSC. I can simply change the settings in compressor, but is there anything i’m missing here (apart from knowledge 😉 – another setting I need to change?

    The annoying thing is I cannot check the disc as I doubt my DVD player will play NSTC.

    In Compressor use Frame Controls Retiming So Source Frames Play at 29.97 and do a small test and see if you like the results.
