    1080 25p capture into 720p 25

    Posted by Oxyde on August 13, 2006 at 4:55 pm

    Hi fellows,

    I have to capture some footage shoot in 1080/25p
    My final output will be 720/25p
    Im gear:
    FCP 5.1
    G5 quad 2Gig RAM, 1T scsi
    AJA KONA not sure if its 2 or 3
    sony hdw- m2000P

    My question:

    Can I capture this 1080/25p at 720/25p?
    As my final putput will be 720/25p i think it will be better to capture at this frame rate and size, also the machine will go faster as well working on 720/25p.

    Is there a way to do this coz I cant find 720/25p setting.
    do I have to capture 720/24p and convert into 25p? if so, how?
    or do i have to capture 720/50i and speed up to 25p?

    Or Is possible to downconvert 1080p into 720p directly from the VTR?

    thanks for your help

    Hi,
    I’ve figured out that FCp doesn’t handdle native 720/25p.
    What solution do I have except edit in 1080/25p.
    How Can I output 720/25p? Do I have to use a specific codec for that
    purpose? DVCPro HD?

    Cheers
